On the other hand without Hamas and Hezbollah the Isreal forces would have marched in and taken over the whole country years ago...
Israeli forces are among the most well equipped and technologically advanced in the world. Hamas and Hezbollah wont be, and never would have been, too much of a problem for them.

Also the two groups get their funding from Iran. Iran has never been the most cash rich state, but right now and for the foreseeable future it's going to be proper broke.
Iran is still the 5th biggest producer of Oil barrels a day
3,990,956, admittedly way behind Israels friend
America which produces more than any nation with
15,043,000 barrels a day.

What's behind Israel's growing protests?

Israelis have been taking to the streets in increasing numbers for weeks, protesting against the right-wing government led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The country is at a crucial juncture.

Somewhat surprising that the UK Mainstream Media has been relatively quiet over this, isn't it?

Maybe not.

Netanyahu has been up on corruption and fraud charges.... How he's managed to hang on in charge is amazing.
It's good to see many, mainly young Israelis, are calling for changes, including a more Pro Palestinian viewpoint

It certainly isn't going well for Netanyahu.......

Israel Is in the Middle of a Summer of Mass Unrest

Israel and the UAE agree to normalise relations in a massive step forward for peace in the Middle East.

Congratulations to all involved.

Everything Netanyahu does is to make Israel stronger, and the Palestinians weaker. He doesnt care for peace and never has
This will also have the effect of splitting the Arab states, who are widely split already.
When Israel leaves Palestine, or is forced to.......then and only then will there be a possibility of peace.
It wont happen in my lifetime for certain, but it'll happen one day in the future.
Every occupying force in history has had to leave eventually, and Israel will be no different

Netanyahu says West Bank annexation plans still 'on the table'
Israeli PM says there is no change in his plans to annex parts of the occupied West Bank despite a deal with the UAE.

https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2020/08/ ... 31066.html

Well this is already going well, isn't it. Clearly this deal wasn't 'oven-ready'.

For any deal to work, the Israeli Government will have concede that they are wrong; and have handled the situation with Palestine appallingly. Sadly, I just can't ever see that happening.

for once NO I agree with both you and coyos.j

If we could sort our one problem in this world in line with peace, i would choose Israel and Palestine and find a solution which brings peace and stability to both countries which in turn will help the whole region.

We have agreed before dear chap (over the lies surrounding 9/11?).

Agree completely with your additional point.

Israel continues bombing of Gaza despite signing controversial peace deal with UAE
Israeli jets continued their assault on Gaza this morning, with the latest round of air strikes injuring at least six Palestinian civilians.

I said 'eventually'
One day, Ireland will be reunited again....its a given. The only thing is we dont know when
Every occupying force leaves eventually....Roman, Viking, Holy Roman, Hapsburg, Ottorman etc etc. They all looked like they'd reign forever, but eventually they all left, and so will Israel, and the Palestinians will have their land back again
( and by the way, dont f*cking call me a moron..ok?)

It will be ruled by Dublin & then it will carry on as part of the EU .

Most educated people understand the EU is not trying to take over

Or it might leave the EU & then be ruled by America like Britain is

Eight days of continual bombing in Gaza.........yet the BBC remains silent.

The British Broadcasting Company doesn't consider it newsworthy. Ask yourself why that is?

Oh hang on. I can't seem to find it covered in any of the UK media.

Now why is that?

I wonder whether it would be considered a 'newsworthy' story though, if just one rocket was sent from the other direction?
