Israel should do a much better job of policing the borders this time

cease fire announced . wash rinse repeat

Israel will stop . Hamas will continue for a few hours after the cease fire goes into effect so Hamas can show the people of Gaza they are still standing . Soon the humanitarian aid checks will be written to support the Palestinians while Israel will lick their wounds and explains that 'giving peace a chance' is what mature, grown-up nations do.

Israel has had decades to give peace a chance yet they've chosen domination and expansion instead so good luck with that!

We better start paying attention to the importance of secure borders.

Well said. It's easy for people to sermonize when they're not the ones constantly having to fight for their lives. There is no question but that there would be peace today if the Arabs were willing to live and let live.

A bad neighborhood and enemies is no excuse for bombing innocents, caged like sardines in a ghetto of Israeli making. That's neither intelligent, humane, or befitting "God's chosen people".

It's even easier to stand by and let a mighty nation rollover the Palestinians instead of dealing with the real terrorists and their enablers.

You know how the US handled frequent attacks on population areas in the 1830s Removed the threat .

it is easy to be one eyed to be politically correct, the truth is these people have never accepted Israel and the right to live in peace

Yes but that was internal and some of those attacks were provoked, you wouldn't do it today

So the conquerors should be accepted by the conquered? That's never happened even if there was little to be done about it.

the attitude of your nation in respect of its indigenous why should Israel be held to a different standard, these people have started wars time and time again and been conquered each time these just don't care about their own

“Peace will come when the Arabs will love their children more than they hate us.”Golda Meir As long as the rhetoric and desires of Israel's enemies is the destruction and extermination of the Jewish state then there will be no peace ;and Israel has no choice but to do everything they can to make sure that doesn't happen . They have shown great restraint by historical standards .

The truth is that this war was provoked by Tehran for the purpose of straining the Abraham Accords .So far it appears that goal has not succeeded . They also want Quid at the table for JCPOA 2.0

Peace will come when the arab leaders are dead, this is unlikely to happen any time soon
