Gaza-Israel Conflict | 2023-2024

My parents were also escapees from Nazi Germany. A Star of David on a tank or warplane is a much better situation than one on a casket or armband.
You swines and pigs fascists who call themselves Zionist decided to colonize our country by cutting cookies? They were supported by Jewish Nazi collaborators. In the 1930s,
It is based on basic knowledge
When the genocide happened, Israel and the evil sons of swine turned their attention to the Second Reich, which promoted the spread of Judaism to seize Palestine.
A complete betrayal of the Jews. Hoes are your wrong equation, crazy monkeys, crazy piggies, crazy porkle, annoying fagget and Jewish armed thugs go hand in hand. rest in piss
 
You genocidal thug. Don't desecrate our flag. Change your avatar.
Why shouldn't crossed Pakistani and Israeli flags be a symbol you aspire to?

With malice towards none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right that God gives us to see the right. Let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations.

- Abraham Lincoln


By contrast, the anti-Israel crowd is characterized by malice, moral cowardice, ignorance, and a deep loathing for the idea that G-d values truth and justice over criminal ends and ways. So for you to embrace Zionism is to embrace holiness, Dalit. Isn't that an end and way of life worth changing your loyalties and fighting for?
 
I wish If I can adopt all the children of Gaza it break my heart to see these unbearable scenes.I pray to Allah to give Palestinians courage and death to those Arab countries who have the power to stop the killing but won’t act against terrorist entity.
 
Oh because racism and savagery didn't exist in the Middle-East,Asia and the Americas since ancient times? :rolleyes: And don't you dare tell me "not at this scale". The amount of massacres and savagery that has taken place in Asia and other parts of the world is on a grand scale. Yet,here we go again blaming everything on "european savages".
Every period of history has had it's own savages, I'd like to start from Nero.

Israel, USA, UK, France and Germany plus Poland and other supporters of Israel represent savages of current times.

They are attacking Yemen for Yemen merely supporting innocent civilians of Gaza by all means.

Your so called western civilization is unmasked in Palestine. Savage colonialists
 
All eyes are focused on Rafah as IDF moves forward - analysis
As the IDF advances along the border and into the built-up area of Rafah city and possibly into Rafah camp, all eyes will be on what comes next.

The battle for Rafah is becoming the crucible through which a new stage of the Gaza war is now passing. The battle has been brewing for months which has made the city a focus of international attention because many countries, both hostile and friendly, have warned Israel against this operation.

Israel proceeded anyway, sending tanks to seize the Rafah crossing on May 7. Now, more than two weeks into the battle, foreign reports say tanks have reached an area near Al-Awda mosque in central Rafah.

Foreign reports said that the IDF was still advancing. Rafah’s environs were sheltering around a million people displaced from other areas in Gaza.

Most of these people left Rafah in early May after the IDF asked them to evacuate. This may leave several hundred thousand people in the areas today.

The IDF has proceeded along the border, an area called the Philadelphi corridor, over the last two weeks. The initial advance was in open country near a former airport and leading up to the Rafah crossing. The areas in eastern Rafah that were first taken included the Salah al-Din road, an important artery leading to Khan Yunis and northern Gaza.

Then IDF units fanned out a bit but continued to advance along the Egyptian border. The area here becomes more built up and dense along the border. The entire border area here is about 11km. long.

The corridor along the border has long been a weapons smuggling center. The IDF operated along the same corridor back in 2003 when Israel controlled the entire Gaza strip. The operation cleared the area of terrorist infrastructure. This area included not only weapons smuggling, but also storage and manufacturing.

Areas of Rafah

Rafah itself is divided into several areas. There is a refugee camp and another densely built-up area in Rafah city itself which is kind of fans out from the border.

That means that as the IDF proceeds it gets close to the center of this fan, and beyond the center it will then face the dense Rafah camp area and only after that the less densely populated area closer to the sea. All eyes are on the IDF now because it is in a complex urban area, possibly at the height of the battle for the city.

The airstrike on May 26 that led to a fire that killed Gazans in Tell Sultan took place northwest of Rafah city and overlooks the Mediterranean. It consists of several planned neighborhoods. The area closest to the sea was built over formerly Jewish communities that were evacuated in the 2005 Israeli disengagement from Gaza.

Rafiah Yam existed near the sea on the Egyptian border. Most of the area is now used to shelter displaced people, adjoining the Mawasi safe zone where Israel has encouraged people in Gaza to relocate throughout the war.

As the IDF advances along the frontier area it will secure most of the Gaza-Egypt border. This will cut off Hamas which has used the Rafah border to control and steal humanitarian aid reaching Gaza from Egypt.

When the battle began, Hamas was thought to have four battalions of fighters in Rafah, but it appears that many have dispersed to Khan Yunis or have retreated slightly from the border.

All eyes are on this area now. The deaths of civilians on May 26 and a clash which killed an Egyptian soldier on May 27 have increased concern about what may come next. The defeat of Hamas is key. However, even when the corridor is taken, there will be a lot more areas in Rafah that may need to be cleared.

Because the IDF is focusing on the corridor itself, and some urban areas, it is conducting an operation similar to the 2003 operation. The built-up areas of Rafah city and Rafah camp are both difficult to fight in and Hamas has likely festooned homes with threats.

In Rafah the border challenge is hard enough because of the matrix of tunnels and rocket launchers. Hamas had installed the rockets fired at Tel Aviv on Sunday a while ago, and launched them apparently because the IDF had reached a few hundred meters from the launch site.
