@VerminusM You have a good point. Terror organizations like Al-Qaeda typically don't rule a territory and once they are in charge they start being the ordinary government like ISIS. Nazis were terrorists until they took over Germany itself. So to with Hamas and Gaza.

@momarchist @VerminusM My initial point is that the Israelis as a whole (with you and many others as an exception) do not want to become a pariah state like that of Russia under Sanctions.

@VerminusM Obviously the Government should work to extricate them, but societal pressure on the government to do so should be illegal. This needs to change because obviously releasing thousands of terrorists and giving up territory for hostages is a defeat 2/2

@VerminusM The Hxmas terrorists hide behind their down civilians and continue the war. The Israeli hostages are kept in tunnels and treated a little better to not be embarrassing if released. Hxmas leadership abroad goes into hiding and the Houthis continue their aggression.

@MalkahFleisher Maybe the USA will help with a Pali Exodus and then decide the rest is not for them? Sometimes things are all in Hashems hands.

@momarchist @VerminusM The USA Airlines (United, American and Delta) that didn't fly to Israel for over a year was part of a soft boycott campaign to bring a ceasefire between Israel and Gaza.

@Osint613 Syria would be a great place for the Gazans to relocate. Same language and same religion, same region.

@VerminusM In the US we are more formal. For example in classrooms growing up I had to say Mr. Last Name as my teacher. That was public school. However in US Religious Jewish schools Kids say Morah First Name. or Rebbe Last Name.

@DavidM_Friedman @TimesofIsrael They are "Holocaust Survivors". October 7th was like one day of the Shoah with the Genocide and attempted Genocide of the Jewish people of the Gaza Envelope in Southern Israel. These ransomed hostages are the surviving remnants of that horrible day.
