We care what Putin’s opinion on Gaza is?

“The Russians have been and continue to enforce their will..”

Let’s see them do it in Gaza. Israel would hand them their asses on Matzo.

No Arab country wants the Palestinians.

Yea right.
Without the U.S. continued support they would not even exist. If fact neither would the State of Isreal.
Facts again.
Although continue your nonsense.
I’ll be posting the recent Russian gains shortly on one of your many Spam threads.🤡

It’s not about rights. It is a question of pragmatism. Thanks to 20 some years of neglect, the diversion of aid funds to build a war machine underneath civilian infrastructure, and the resulting war the place is mostly uninhabitable. It will take 10-15 years to rebuild and the denizens need practical things like housing, water, food, medicine, roads, electricity, sewage systems etc. They cannot live in tents while the place is rebuilt - if it is ever rebuilt since it’s an open question who will put up the $100 billion to build infrastructure without ironclad assurance that it won’t just end up being blown up again in the future.

So the people need to move. Perhaps not all of them but a lot of them. There is no other way. They can perchance retain some rights of return in the future, passed down to the next generation if need be, assuming it is ever rebuilt. Or they can sell or lease their plots to international investors and maybe turn Gaza into a tourist destination. They can retain their ownership rights but choose to make it income property rather than full time residence. Or both. Build commercial and residential so they can live and work in the future. It is great land, on the beach, between two other great tourist attractions (Israel and Egypt). Put a port and bring in cruises. Put an airport and bring in tourists. They also have a large natural gas field offshore. They can use that and export that too. Unfortunately they never cared. Hamas is mostly to blame, but there is blame on the Palestinian Authority, the UN, international donors and even Israel. Everybody knew what was being built and propagandized inside Gaza and nobody really tried to nip it in the bud. A generation later we are surprised there is a horrible war?

Does anyone care what Putin says anymore. The giant Russian bear could not even bring its former satellite, Ukraine, to its knees. His country’s military is the laughing stock of the West, and now, even North Korea is bringing their 10,000 troops home, most of them in body bags.

Jordan wants no part of the so-called Palestinians. In case you have forgotten, the Palestinians attempted to overthrow the Jordanian government quite a few years ago. These people in Gaza make Irish Travelers look like good people to have as neighbors.

Why single out Russia to use as a wedge? Even Ukraine didn't get enough of a bribe to vote for it. 'Putin puppet' Hungary is the only surpise I see here.

.


"18 September 2024 Peace and Security The United Nations General Assembly on Wednesday voted overwhelmingly to adopt a resolution that demands that Israel "brings to an end without delay its unlawful presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory."

"With a recorded vote of 124 nations in favour, 14 against, and 43 abstentions, the resolution calls for Israel to comply with international law and withdraw its military forces, immediately cease all new settlement activity, evacuate all settlers from occupied land, and dismantle parts of the separation wall it constructed inside the occupied West Bank."

And you have me confused with someone else.

I hate both sides pretty much equally.

Oooh, I so scared! Why doesn’t Russia send its naval ships the Mediterranean to intimidate us? Oh yeah, they don’t have a Navy.

I see our goodbuddy “allies” Ukraine abstained again. $200 billion doesn’t buy much friendship. Except for Hungary, all our so-called NATO allies abstained or voted for it. Ha, Papua New Guinea and Tonga are better friends.
