      Because Israel already occupies Gaza and other Palestinian areas.

      Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005, where the hell are you getting your information?

        Israel still controls all traffic, imports, utilities, and ingress/egress from the area (if it didn't, they wouldn't have been able to cut off power, water, and aid). Israel "withdrawing from Gaza" doesn't really mean much unless Gaza has elected representation and can sustain itself.

          Gaza literally has a border with egypt and sea.

          In addition, controlling imports and exports is fully reasonable when there is a terrorist organization in power.

            It’s funny because your comment is literally meaningless. Which terrorist organization are you referring to? Hamas or Israel?

                False. There are 2. One has killed about 1400 people, the other has killed over 8000 in the last week alone.

                  Hamas is the terrorist organization in the conflict. Who else? Israel? Not really, they literally were the ones attacked and at the same time it’s pretty much the only state in middle east where people have human rights. There is no oppression from the government (despite the fact I personally disagree with many decisions of the current leadership), there are regular elections, etc. I don’t see how this is a terrorist behavior.

                  There is a huge difference when you purposefully just because of their religion and when you kill civilians because there are terrorists hiding between them.

                    I don’t care what their reasons for killing children are. I only care that they are indiscriminately killing them. That makes them terrorists by any definition.
