5. "liberation, RETURN and establishment " (last sentence, third paragraph)
Tue Oct 10, 2023, 07:33 PM

For those who don’t understand why this battle has been going on for 75 years, here it is in a nutshell. Groups like Hamas ( but certainly not all Palestinians ) have been demanding the same thing for all these years and will not compromise.

“Return” means they want the right to live in Israel. This would mean the end of Israel as “a refuge for the Jewish people” and clearly the end of Israel as it knows itself and as the world knows it and which is never going to be agreed to. After 75 years there is still no willingness to compromise. Just increasing debasement, terror and bloodshed.
