FREE GAZA, FREE GAZA,
These
are the signs held up and shouted at anti-Israel rallies all around the world.
I agree with this sentiment. However, it is not Israel that Gaza needs to be
free from; it is Hamas. Israel left the Gaza strip. ISRAEL does NOT
occupy Gaza. Gaza is OCCUPIED BY A MURDEROUS, TERRORIST GROUP THAT IS
HOLDING THEIR OWN PEOPLE HOSTAGE AND PERPETUALLY THREATENS THEIR NEIGHBORS. not
occupied. Yes, the borders are controlled by Egypt on one side ( did you forget
that ?) and Israel on the other.
When Israel withdrew from Gaza, there were high hopes that there would be peace
with its neighbors. That hope dashed when Hamas violently overthrew the
Palestinian Authority in Gaza. It has been hell ever since for its people and
its neighbors.
Instead of making Gaza a rich, wealthy, peaceful country, Hamas has condemned
the over 2 million people to live in a twilight zone of war, war, wars between
battles, and more war.
The main contribution of Hamas to the world is incendiary balloons, homemade
missiles, and blowing up pizza places.
Israel is suffering, Arabs are suffering in Israel, and the most tragic, the
people of Gaza. There is virtually no hope for them. Before Hamas, many workers
entered Israel to make a living. The people of Gaza need the change the
most.
Nobody sane can expect Israel to open the doors to a regime that, at its core,
wants to kill all Jews in Israel and the world.
So if you are protesting the war in Gaza, keep on protesting, but let's make
sure you have the right people to blame.
It is not Israel; Israelis are just as tired of the wars as the people of Gaza.
Israelis and Jews don't hate Arabs; they want them to succeed just as much. It
is in everyone's interest to make peace with Gaza. Just think what it would be
like to have a peaceful, civilized country on the banks of the
Mediterranean?
Let's stop the hypocrisy, and all pray for peace that will help make everyone's
lives better.
