@BohemianBoo I don't know. I seem to remember hearing that the fighting goes back thousands of years.

@trollslayer I'm trying to turn over a new leaf, rather than respond emotionally to people who disagree.

The same way you clear a Hamas Bingo Parlor. Call out "B-52, B-52"!!!

@PatKirby

You can't yell B-52 at a crowded bingo parlor.

@trollslayer yes. I guess we can all be considered armchair quarterbacks at one time or another. lol

Take away their military weapons, and make them murder each other with slings and clubs. I'm sure they'll get tired of that sooner, rather than later.

You can’t, those who want a perpetual war already have their minds made up. They’ll break that ceasefire every time.

Hamas believes in civil rights and representative democracy, didn’t you know?

I say we drop a cryo-bomb on them, and thaw them out in various parts of the world, where they must find a way to create a new life.
