    I would guess it has more to do with the fact that their holy book says to kill the Jews.
    but why did your picture only go back to 1947? Why didn't it go back thousands of years which might get more context to the location

    Do the British have right to be upset? What about the Romans? What about the Jews that lived there 2000 years ago? What about the Christians that claimed it? The Persians? The Hellenists?
    Then back to the Jews again for 10+ centuries from 17th to 6th century BC

    Your silly picture is that just, silly.

    Also you're from South Africa.... just saying

    We are animals no matter what we call ourselves. Remember we defined ourselves and the things around us. Nothing out side our species did that. Well I can only imagine what primates and dolphins,whales would call us other than food and danger.

    They called up 300,000 reserves.

    I give it a week or less before Iran is actively engaged.

    These holy wars have been going on for thousands of years, why we should care is beyond me. The greater civilization will be victorious and the timeline starts all over until the next war. I pray to God we stay out of this mess.

    Also as someone extremely pro-military, we don't need this one. We are already funding a proxy war against Russia, let's just make ourselves more vulnerable by sending support to the middle east.

    We will forever be linked to Israel. Well maybe not if the Democratic Socialist party grows and it's members such as AOC and Cori Bush are involved.

    well that was what was found on the internet - so sue me
    you are ok with Israels genocide and land grab of Palestine and don't like it when they fight back?
    by your logic you would approve of the Indigenous Americans doing the same because they have been there for thousands of years before you white folk
    And the USA will be giving back California, Texas, New Mexico, Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Nevada, Wyoming, Kansas and Oklahoma to Mexico, Hawaii will go back to the rightful owners, Alaska back to Russia.

    you want to go on about violence in religious scriptures - the bible is more violent than the quran - the old testament was found to be twice as violent
    maybe you should read Deuteronomy (9:5, 20:17, 18) where GOD directs Israels King David to kill and provided the battle strategy that ensured victory (Samuel 5:17-25)
    the Hebrew bible & the new testament both contain narratives, poems and instructions which describe, encourage, command and reward violent actions by God, individuals, groups, governments and nation states. Among those acts of violence included are war, human sacrifice, animal sacrifice, murder, rape, genocide and criminal punishment

    remember - it's also read to children on Sundays

    you want to look at history?
    then the same applies in every country / region around the globe, and Israel are the ones who have ignored international law and the UN for 50 years - gotten away with complete impunity
    last I saw the Jews are STILL living there, just killing others and illegally taking land - as pointed out by the UN
    there's a reason why the UN was created

    and why would the British be upset - for losing their imperialist empire

    https://www.globalr2p.org/countries/israel-and-the-occupied-palestinian-territory/
    Populations in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory endure recurring war crimes and crimes against humanity, including the crime of apartheid.

    Palestinian territory – encompassing the Gaza Strip and West Bank, including East Jerusalem – has been illegally occupied by Israel since 1967. Since then, the Israeli government has established a two-tiered legal and political system that provides comprehensive rights for Jewish Israeli settlers while imposing military rule and control on Palestinians without any basic protections or rights under international law. The Israeli government has also engaged in a regular practice of inhumane acts, as well as extrajudicial killings, torture, denial of fundamental human rights, arbitrary detention and collective punishment. The UN Human Rights Council-mandated Commission of Inquiry (CoI) on the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT), including East Jerusalem, and Israel concluded in June 2022 that continued occupation, as well as discrimination against Palestinians, are the key causes of recurrent instability and protraction of conflict in the region.

    According to a March 2022 report by the UN Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the OPT, Israel’s political system of entrenched rule in the OPT satisfies the prevailing evidentiary standard for the crime of apartheid. The Special Rapporteur determined in July 2021 that Israel’s occupation since 1967 has been characterized by settlement expansion that aims to permanently alter the ethnic demographics of East Jerusalem and amounts to a war crime. The UN Security Council (UNSC) previously adopted a resolution in December 2016 reaffirming that Israeli settlements in the OPT violate international law.

    The Responsibility to Protect populations from genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing has emerged as an important global principle since the adoption of the UN World Summit Outcome Document in 2005.

    and what of the country you live in and the ORIGINAL people - just sayin

    what Hamas done was bullcrap .. I hope Israel wipes every one of those scum off the face of this planet ... period .. and if one thinks this is Israel's fault because of land, thats also bullcrap, Iran is behind this 100% and helped plan and execute the attack ..... sounds very anti-jew to even slightly support those terrorists, but then a person from SA just might be a tad prejudiced against the Jewish state ... just sayin' ...

    probably Brandons way of being able to leave UA arguing that he must now protect Israel, 2 failed wars under his watch is political suicide
