Netanyahu is adamantly opposed to an independent Palestinian state, so that's not going to happen.

I’ll take that, if you throw in Netanyahu being locked up for the rest of his miserable life.Originally posted by dataDave View PostComment

Facts like no command operation network exists under al-Shifra Hospital?Comment

BBC goes inside Al-Shifa Hospital with the Israeli army (msn.com)
It's interesting that Israel gave access to the hospital for this but tightly controlled the visit and its evidence doesn't stack up to a heavy threat within the hospital, nor of tunnels. If this gains traction it could make it harder for them to maintain the political support they are holding on to.
The real question for those MP's who are falling on their sword over calling for a ceasefire is - There catagorically isn't going to be one whether Labour supports one or not, what do they want to see happen in the interim?Comment

Find yourself a De Lorean with a flux capacitor, go back fifty years and change laws to allow the Palestinians and Israeli's to vote in each others elections.Originally posted by Protocol Penguin View Post
In reality two-state I think is the way, Biden today told Netty not to get too comfortable in Gaza and that a two-state system is their preferred choice.
Pity it's taken all this killing to get there.
The propaganda war seems to be almost as important as the war itself.
When one of the hospitals was hit two weeks or so ago many including people here were quick to jump to the conclusion that it was an Israeli airstrike but it seems that it was a Hamas rocket that failed.
We might never get to the whole truth about about what the IDF are finding, was it planted yes/no. There is an Amnesty International report from a few years ago which details Hamas locating themselves at hospitals to carry out torture and executions.
The IDF doesn't seem to have much to show but Hamas has had plenty of time to move items out, in addition they have been putting a lot of effort into defending the hospital.Comment

I despair, really. Still wonder how things would’ve worked out had Yitzhak Rabin not been shot by a far-right nutjob back in 1995.Comment

Trouble is the IDF have a long and fragrant history of lying, even admitting as much themselves, and Netanyahu is the Israeli Trump. It wasn't so long ago he was trying to give himself the power to overturn judicial rulings, and is still involved in a corruption trial.Originally posted by Anpanman View Post
