[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I will never forget the small Palestinian boy who was asked what he was carrying in his backpack. He opened and showed the Journalist the bits and pieces of his baby brother’s body. That’s what comes to mind when I think of the Israeli flag.

How touching.  Grow up and reflect on why his brother died.  Who started that conflict?  Does Oct 7 come to mind?  If not, you're willfully blind.  [/quote]

DP. Was October the first day of human history? No?[/quote]

It was the first day of the conflict under discussion.  Trying to re-litigate ancient grievances is a fool's errand; the Palestinians are a perfect example.  Instead of moving beyond their miscalculation in rejecting their own country in 1948, they have ever since tried to duke it out with Israel, losing every time.  Even if your little sob story about the dead brother is true, that death is attributable directly to Oct 7, not to anything which happened before he was born.  And why stop there?  Maybe you'd like to regale us with a story about rapes, murders, and kidnaping on Oct 7, and how those actions contributed to regional peace?  Or maybe, just possibly, those actions are what brought the wrath of the IDF down on Gaza in righteous retaliation.  Here's another story you can tell us, about the hostages still being held.  Surely that little detail is nothing which is preventing a cessation of hostilities and further deaths in Gaza?  Remind us again where responsibility lies for every single death in Gaza since Oct 7?
