    And here silly old me thought it was conflicts like this that the UN was supposed to handle.


    Make a clear border for both sides. The border would be protected with state-of-the-art UN soldiers, well equipped and trained to deal fairly with the situation.

    I think that's the only viable solution. An alternative would of course be to use nukes to make that whole area a gigantic parking lot...

    Oh well, nothing will happen as long as the US stay a Jew lackey.

    Ha, that will never happen even if the US dumps Israel as an ally. That would just make Israel more entrenched.

    Either way, both sides are teaching their kids to hate the other side so nope this conflict can only end in eventual slaughter.

    That's why we need the blue helmets...

    It's hard to convince your kid that that guy - who is ready to sacrifice his life for international justice - is a tangible target.




    My point even shorter would be:

    Israel and Palestine are like two children quarrelling, and it's time for a grown up to step in between them.

    I think its pretty easy. I know this from personal experience because in 2007, about a year after the 2nd Lebanon war, I toured the Lebanon-Israeli border and we saw some of the UN peacekeepers and our guide told us how the UN was basically protecting Hezbollah so they can rearm for the next fight. Now I know that they weren't, but 15 year old me soaked up every word that guide told us about how the UN was just covering for the terrorists.

    Its too late for an "adult" to step in, the kids aren't ten years old anymore.

    Well... I don't agree.

    The UN isn't doing any full intervention, so what people would think might (would) change.


    There will always be idiots, but remember that UN warfare is part "nation and education" building. You know, kind of like the US only that they actually mean it.


    A full on western assault would cripple their resistance...

    Now, I am not talking about weaponized assault, mind you.

    I talk about politicians from all over the world having their public say, I talk about comedians world wide making up jokes about it, I talk about controlling their economy, I talk about.... The list goes on, but you get my point.


    The UN military guys arent' the REAL show when it comes to the UN, it's the full on cultural assault that matters.

    Again: sure there will be idiots... But right now they dwell in a society where they can play their idiocies... Whereas if the UN intervened for real, these same idiots would suddenly have a LOAD of other voices making themselves heard..

    And people are not complete idiots, eventually they will listen. Specifically if helped by schools promoting critical thinking, HEY, something else the UN does.

    So by "western assault" you mean what basically amounts to a gag order when it comes to Israel being lifted, and a control of their economy? I understand the lifting of the gag order, but the economy part? Im not seeing where that fits in, and I fail to see how even removing the gag order would help. If anything it would make Israel more entrenched.

    * Lifting the international gag order would be first priority for any kind of civilized advancement, of course.

    * The economy part is actually the very main thingy here... Do you think Israel would function for long if the west refused to trade with them, or if the west withdrew their aid?

    Israel only functions BECAUSE the west *cough* USA *cough* allows it.


    "Entrenched" is BS...

    Israel is a small island in a very big sea of "Let's get rid of Israel". Cut off from western aid they would NEVER last for long.

    Oh, and it's not even like China or Russia would HELP them, like they do with nations messing with USA.
