Nice try, but nope. The first Hamas attack on a civilian target occurred in April 1993 ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... ), nearly a year before the mosque massacre. Beforehand, their attacks on "military targets" were comprised mostly of kidnapping and butchering Israeli soldiers. A real peace partner.
Sorry, but the article is about East Jerusalem. What Palestinian village or town was demolished to make way for this construction?
Name a town or village that was destroyed in the 1980s. One.
Especially the airspace one. Tell me all about how Hamas has full control of Gaza airspace with their massive air force.
On the morning of Oct. 7 there was no resistance to the infiltration of thousands of Hamas fighters by land, sea and air. If this is not control then what is?
I'm taking issue with someone engaging in what amounts to a semantics debate.
No. You specifically made a very, very ugly accusation - that Israel habitually destroys Arab homes and builds Jewish homes on their ruins. Then when I say that this never happened and you can't find a single example of this all you can say is that I am arguing over semantics?
According to this article this is what Hamas offered in 1988:
If Israel wanted peace, it had to withdraw from the Occupied Territories, release Palestinian detainees, restore Palestinian rights, and allow Palestinians to name their own representatives, [...] acknowledge the Palestinian people’s right to self-determination and the right of return to their land.
Israel will not negotiate for peace with an entity that does not acknowledge the existence of Israel as a Jewish state. These terms are not a peace offer, they are a death threat.
What thing that the "Palestinians built" was destroyed to make way for this construction?
Sure but every country has control over it's sea borders and airspace. The Palestinians do not have these powers.
You know, perhaps in a different time I would have gotten into this debate. But after Oct. 7 I think this claim is a joke, Hamas has demonstrated full control of all borders and airspace surrounding Gaza, and has shown exactly what would happen if they had this control 100% of the time.
So what you're saying is that it's okay for the Israeli's to destroy large numbers of Palestinian homes as long as they arent building homes for their own citizens on top of them?
You specifically blamed Israel for "bulldozing Palestinian homes to build Israeli ones" - your words, not mine - and now you admit that this is a false accusation?
Citation needed.
No country in the world has full control over its own borders. Borders are something you control together with the country on the other side. As far as Gaza's control of its borders with Israel, Hamas has repeatedly committed terror attacks on the border crossings forcing Israel to close them. As for the border with Egypt, well, that's not Israel's problem and I've never heard of any protest blaming Egypt for imprisoning the Palestinians (even though, in fact, they are).
Your Wikipedia entry does not show a single case of "bulldozing Palestinian homes to build Israeli ones" - still waiting for that.
They do it every time. Destroy what the Palestinians built, replace them with Israeli settlers.
Name one case where this has actually happened.
The October 7 attacks occurred within the 1948 UN recognized borders of Israel. The Hamas terrorists entered Israel and butchered and raped innocent civilians living on land internationally recognized as 100% Israeli. Enough with the lies!
You're just making thing up. Hamas has never made peace with Israel. Hamas does not recognize Israel's right to exist and has never and will never make anything resembling "peace" with it.
"a half century of occupation" - That's a lie. Israel withdrew every last soldier and settler from Gaza and left it as a completely independent territory 19 years ago. Look where that brought us.
"20 years of complete inaction" - withdrawing from Gaza is not exactly complete inaction, now is it.
"decades of bulldozing Palestinian homes to build Israeli ones" - name one incident where this actually happened. Cite a reliable source please.
Low bitrate digital recordings suffer from quantization noise, not clipping. Get your terms straight. However with CD (16-bit) recordings the ratio between the music and this noise is 96 dB which beats any analog medium by several orders of magnitude. Even you admit that this "clipping" phenomenon does not exist in CD, so why did you even mention it?
Exactly. People need to download Chrome, skip past several (outrageous!) prompts baked in to the OS by Microsoft to dissuade them from doing so, and install it and set it up. These are the hoops I was referring to, and it seems like most people are willing to jump through them, on their own initiative, in order to use Google's software and search engine.
I stand behind my argument.
You are correct about mobile devices that have Google set up as the default, but yet even if it is not - people will typically set it as their default anyway.
