    I am a long time reader and I usually love seeing people’s comments on shows. But this is the first time I feel compelled to comment. The situation in Gaza has me extremely sad and angry. The juxtaposition of the pompous embassy ceremony in Jerusalem and the violence in Gaza is staggering. Gaza is one of the most miserable places on this planet. Overflowing with people with no jobs, no future and no hope. The shooting of live ammunition into these crowds by the Israelis is outrageous. If people actually paid attention, they would see how oppressive and cruel the Israeli’s have treated the Palestinian people. The world watches and turns their eyes. Truly heart-breaking. Thank you for not ignoring it Tamara.

      Exactly. “If people actually paid attention, they would see how oppressive and cruel the Israeli’s have treated the Palestinian people.” It enrages me to see this. It enrages me to know how many billions of dollars we send to Israel. Meanwhile, Palestinians are dying because of lack of healthcare. They’re unable to fish because of the limits that exist to prevent them from going into “Israel-controlled” areas of the ocean. They live without power and with the constant threat of being shot to death. Their homes are ruthlessly taken and literally bulldozed by settlers. Their olive tree crops are burned to the ground. It’s cruel. It’s inhumane.

      They have been doing this for years and despite how awful I feel about seeing this, I’m for one glad that it is finally being shown on mainstream media. It’s time the world saw what Israel and their far-right conservative government does to other human beings. Another example of this, is what they’ve done with African refugees. Netanyahu and those like-minded see the Palestinians and anyone of Arab-decent as sub-human. The world is finally watching and I hope that it doesn’t stop watching. It’s about time.

      In 1995 U.S. Congress passed a law recognizing Jerusalem as “the Capital of the State of Israel”. It’s purpose was to relocate the US embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalum.

      Every President since then has invoked a 6-month waiver (including Trump in June 2017)…up until this most recent 6-month period (Dec 2017) when Trump ordered the planning of the relocation of the embassy.

    We moved the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, so Israel, not Palestine… and I completely agree with you, this was completely unnecessary and only serves to encourage division and violence!! No point whatsoever except to cost lives and millions of dollars for Trumps ego. Sigh 🙁

      In case you’ve forgotten, in the Northern Ireland Border Poll of 1973, almost 99% of voters voted to remain a part of the United Kingdom. The citizens of Ulster spoke, and overwhelmingly showed that they were quite happy with the status quo. To compare the situation there with the situation being discussed here is ridiculous – the only violence associated with the vote in 1973 was perpetrated by the Provisional Irish Republican Army. The People spoke.

    It’s just all too much. I don’t know where to start. To tell my children why this is happening.
    All I can do is shut off every fkn thing except the weather channel. I can’t speak to family. We have evangelical christians in our family that our sounding their war drums. I have converted to Yahweh Israel first at all costs members and they beat drums for their cause.
    I am Catholic and am lost and scared. We were always taught that whrn fighting in Jesus’s stomping grounds begin and such it’s the call to end times. It’s paranoid inducing. I’m trying to tell my kiddos that:
    Lets say we’ve lived here in the woods for so many generations and then ppl we’ve neverthought of pop up with bombs and orders and weapons and tell us to get the fuck off the land that my great grandfathers built and raised us. Now we are in a smelly ass campground with smelly ass rusted out trailers and we should be happy we are given that windy shithole. That being an engineer after years off college is nothing. We can now beg for scraps on the streets and return to shitty ass bombed out mud huts.
    It’s too much and if me living, working and growing in fla ever had a multigov world decide and say sorry: get lost you’re garbage and scum and deal with it. you were born on the wrong side of the tracks. I may very fucking well throw the only thing I’m allowed to own. Dirt and sand and rocks and homemade firebombs.

    I guess that’s why I’m just a mom reading a blog in ‘ Murrica. There has been war and tapes and murder from the beginning. No matter how hard I try to help and make changes and raising 3 young men I do not have an answer as to why the war why the violence and raping and pain. Guess that’s why I subliminally gravitate to Bravo shows. I wish that I could live so unaware and present to reality. It’s like an escape from out there.

    The American partially responsible for making this happen is Sheldon Adelson:

    “Sheldon Adelson has great political influence in Israel, where he founded the free daily Israel Hayom, reportedly spending tens of millions of dollars to bankroll it. Now the country’s most widely read publication, Hayom serves as the house organ for Prime Minister Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu, who rode to reelection last year after stoking fears that “Arab voters are heading to the polls in droves.” This year’s Republican candidates.. know that the mogul’s patronage depends on their positions and tone toward Israel…”

    He is a major part of why this happened, he is the 13th richest man in the U.S. This move was payback to him for massive sums of $$$ he donated to the 2016 election.

    It’s disgusting!

      Try Hamas
      The violence in the Gaza Strip has been ongoing for weeks, and has been entirely orchestrated by Hamas. Palestinians, including Hamas terrorists, have been throwing Molotov cocktails at Israeli troops, as well as explosive devices and stones; they’ve been burning tires and attempting to cut through the border fence with wirecutters. The Israel Defense Forces spokesperson, Ronen Manelis, says Hamas is paying families to protest, and that they have intelligence that Hamas seeks to kidnap an Israeli soldier.

      Hamas’ leadership has announced that it seeks to promote violence along the border, and has activated tens of thousands of Palestinians as public cover for that violence. Hamas’s leader, Yahya Sinwar, said last month, “We will take down their border and we will tear out their hearts from their bodies.” Senior Hamas official Mahmoud al Zahhar openly told al Jazeera, “This is not a peaceful resistance … when we talk about peaceful resistance, we are deceiving the public.

ISRAEL HAD TAKEN THEIR LAND, THEIR HOMES and penned the in to concentration camps. It’s hard to comprehend how anyone could think Israel is the good guy here.

              With respect, 70 years on, telling Jews to go back to Poland is not realistic. Jews have been victims of pogroms in Russia, the Arab world and Europe. Arabs removed their Jews and sent them to Israel. Many people compared Jews to rats and claimed they were cursed for killing Christ and deserves no country. The history of Jewish oppression and murder is well-known. America belongs to the Indians. Texas absolutely belongs to Mexico. History is a sickening mire of war, death and injustice. If one can read about the extensive persecution of the Jewish people and still say they have no right to a country, it’s an opinion that I find hard to share. But, I do like reading your viewpoints and wish we could discuss this over mojitos instead.

    The ridiculous thing about this is that nobody in Israel really wanted the embassy to move, almost everybody knew what was going to happen. The only reason the embassy was moved was because our prime minister is being investigated for corruption in around five different cases in is desperately looking for any sort of distraction- his favorite being a military one. Around half of Israel believes in the two states solution which will include “officially” dividing Jerusalem (already kind of divided by population) but no, the corrupt Bibi must keep his comfy seat. Trump and Bibi are two idiots enabling and helping each other achieve their worst ambitions. Maybe they will remain friends after they both, hopefully, will be thrown in prison.

      have no hope for the future. I guess instead of lying down to die, they have chosen to protest. So they face the fire-power of the Israeli troops by lighting kites on fire and throwing rocks. Instead of showing restraint, the Israeli troops fire live rounds into the crowds and kill countless people and injuring thousands. That is not the action of a country that holds the higher moral ground. And for the record, I am married into a lovely Jewish family and they also despise what is happening in Gaza right now. There will be no peace while Trump and big money donor, Adelson, give the right-wing Israeli government on destroying the Palestinian people.

I guess the European Union & their courts are wrong since they officially recognize Hamas as a terror organization. The state of Israel has a right to exist and defend it’s boarders. Silly Israel for not wanting to let members of a terrorist organization into their countries to bomb their buses, malls, etc…
