• Hamas to power in 2007 and broke all past agreements with Israel and started to launch rockets into Israel. This lead to the blockade.

    Hamas seized power after a civil war, brought on by an attempted coup by the PA backed by the US and Israel. This attempted coup led to the Hamas attacks on Israel. They did not randomly break all agreements and started shooting rockets.

    Hamas was always deeply unhappy with the Israeli presence, but they hadn’t become really openly violent before that point.

    If you started to fire your gun on my home at random hours I would have locked your door from the outside and set your home on fire with, or without, your family inside. This is common sense.

    What the fuck is this insane statement. Call the police?

      Hamas’ charter calls for the destruction of Israel and death to all Jews. They showed previously to 2006 that those are not empty words. In 2006, after the elections, they refused to respect previews agreements Israel made with the PA and then they dug a tunnel into Israel and kidnapped an Israeli soldier.

      All the while not paying salaries to the PA defence forces and keeping a private military body.

      There was no coup, no one wanted to continue working with them after that. So the president of the PA replaced the prime minister.

      There is no police for international matters.
