The United States is talking to Israeli officials and others about the idea of a safe passage for Gaza civilians after Israel’s air strikes following a deadly Hamas attack over the weekend, the U.S. national security adviser Jake Sullivan said on Tuesday.
“We are focused on this question, there are consultations going on,” Sullivan told reporters in a White House press briefing.
Israel has battered Palestinians with deadly air strikes in Gaza after Palestinian Islamist group Hamas’ attack on Israel on Saturday that left hundreds dead.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said at least 830 Palestinians were killed and up to 4,250 wounded in Israeli air strikes on the blockaded enclave since Saturday. The enclave, only 40km (25 miles) long by 10km (6 miles) wide, is home to 2.3 million people.
It is important to recognize that this is going to happen regardless of if it is right or not. Palestine is probably going to cease to exist in the coming months. The leaders of the western world have decided to back Israel in this conflict… This doesn’t mean it’s right. We should absolutely call it out… But this is happening.
Now we have to decide if we let the civilians live or die.
In all honesty is would be best if one side left. That would be the only way to really move forward from this and put fighting and death behind everyone. In a few decades the people who fled would have found new homes and to their children and grand children that would be thoer home land
Yup, no peoples have ever demanded to return to their homeland after more than a few decades. There are absolutely no famous cultural disporas that have ever happened.

Think they are the only ones to have claim to that area ? Know how many centuries other people’s and cultures lived in that aera.
They have a way better claim than Israel does.
Regardless of your opinion on any other aspect of it, the one currently holding the ground with armed force typically has the better claim since they can enforce it.
That’s not having a better claim, that’s supporting a worse claim through violence.
What is the better claim? Being there earlier? Because like I said there were other people there even earlier than them
Yes? It’s been Palestinians for a very long time. It was the British colony of Palestine from 1920 to 1948, when it was established as the Jewish ethno-state of Israel. They gave no fucks that a non-Jewish population already lived there.
