160. Who is they? The Palestinians in Gaza have no government, and almost half the population is under 17.

Nov 13

Israel got the largest number of hostages released during a ceasefire, and Netanyahu has assassinated the leadership of Hamas including the top negotiator of Hamas for a ceasefire/peace agreement and release of the Israeli hostages.

Hamas was enabled to power in the first place, and allowed to thrive by Netanyahu as a counter to the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank.

Netanyahu feared democracy from breaking out every bit as much as MBS did after the Arab Spring.

The oligarchs of the world covet Palestinian land so Netanyahu's long time family friend and *rump's shadow diplomat Jared Kushner worked out a deal that eliminated the Palestinians from any consideration putting a pressure cooker on the stove and walking away from it, and waiting for it to explode.

I call it planned *ethnic cleansing/genocide.

*That's such a clean sounding phrase for mass murder and theft, it's almost Orwellian.
