Apologies I’m not trying to interview you but you keep suggesting that israel have no control over what goes in to Gaza solely because Hamas anre able to get weapons. And that is incorrect.

No. No I don't.

I have said they were not trying to deny food to the people of Gaza (before Saturday), and Hamas's ability to stockpile weapons demonstrates that they didn't control everything going into Gaza.

And I also added that the people of Gaza in the videos over the last few days did not appear to be malnourished.

Now here is a radical solution...firstly, all those tunnels that Hamas has spent it's people's money which so far have been used to smuggle in weapons of war...they can open them up to their civilians to escape into Egypt...women, children and the mobile elderly. Egypt will probably stop them within a few hours but that would allow what, 10 a minute per tunnel for 2 hours. At just 5 tunnels, that is 6000 people. At 10 tunnels, 12000. Over 4 hours, 25000. A drop in the ocean sure but if done at night, 8-12 hours plus before discovery. Still, 25k - 72k. And at that point, with so many people blocking their access to closing the tunnels, potentially even more.

If anything if there ever is true peace in Gaza it would make an amazing documentary regarding the tunnel network that exist under Gaza. They must be quite impressive to smuggle weapons and ammunition into a vastly multinational observed territory and a quote prison city completely unobserved for so many decades.

Sadly they are used to train and indoctrinate more men to fight for an ultimately hateful cause, but you can appreciate the effort it must have took to create them.
 
Was never going to be any other answer because to take part would almost certainly result in the end of the current Egyptian regime.

Personally I think it’s more to do with the fact once out of Gaza Israel would not let the inhabitants back in once hostilities have subsided.

You would see settlers take over the land, coincidentally enough kind of plays into exactly what Israel has been doing for the last 50+ years.

It is Israeli doctrine to entice attacks / reaction so it can claim they were forced or had no choice but to take the land / take action.

30 years ago both Israel and Palestine acknowledged each others right to exist

There was meant to be one 2 years ago (I think) in West Bank. The leadership cancelled it when it became apparent Hamas would win.

Planned isn't the same as an election. Fact is there have been no elections since Hamas took power after killing the opposition. Hamas will never give them a vote.

Humans and terrorism go hand in hand. If it wasn’t religion there’d be another excuse. We’ve not evolved far enough from our tribal instincts, imo, despite our technological advances. I’d be pretty that sure long before religion our cavemen ancestors were clubbing each others heads in over land/food/because I’m bigger than you.
 
C4 news piece with scenes of all the innocent murdered children being pulled from the rubble as a result of the indiscriminate mass bombing. UK government silent.
