    Israel did this because they thought it would make them safer. The future generations won’t forget this. They might as well make their country an island

      I’m sorry but your point is anchored on an old Propaganda myth of Israel.

      Israel’s lack of safety comes from them having stolen Palestinian land and continuing to steal Palestinian land, for decades.

      If safety was their prime objective, they could stop stealing Palestinian land, give back at least some Palestinian land and compensate the victims for the rest (I am assuming here that Israel would keep some of the originally stolen land to continue to exist as a nation).

      They have chosen not to do that and instead they have chosen to use force against Palestinians to stop their just rage at having their land stolen and have chosen to Genocide Palestinians to finally take away the rest of their land.

      Safety is not the primary reason for the actions of Israel. Safety is an excuse and at best a second or third order reason derived from their real primary reason:

      • Israel did this (as they did most of what they did to Palestinians for 7 decades) because they want to steal all the Palestinian land.

      They did it because they want to genocide Palestine - this only creates a bunch of people with justifiable hatred of Israel and nothing to lose.

      If they wanted to be safer, they wouldn’t have funded Hamas’ displacement of the secular moderates, gleefully committed and publicised thousands of warcrimes, established an ethnostate, conducted decades of land grabs, or scream maniacally about a second, bigger Amalek.

      No, the didn’t do this because “they think it will make them safer” they knew exactly what they doing and that’s why there is a genocide case against them.
