Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Ireland, Spain and Norway have announced they will formally recognise a Palestinian state on 28 May, triggering an immediate response from Israel, which said it would retaliate by recalling its ambassadors from Dublin, Madrid and Oslo, and withholding vital funds from the Palestinian Authority.

The three European governments made the long-awaited announcements in coordinated moves on Wednesday morning that they said were intended to support a two-state solution and foster peace in the Middle East.

“We are going to recognise Palestine for many reasons and we can sum that up in three words: peace, justice and consistency,” Spain’s prime minister, Pedro Sánchez, told the parliament in Madrid, to applause. “We have to make sure that the two-state solution is respected and there must be mutual guarantees of security.”

Of course it's the Israeli Government, same as the South African Appartheid government had to be dismantled to end Appartheid there, the Fascist Government in Greece had to be dismantled to bring Democracy there and the Communist Government in Poland had to be dismantled to bring Democracy there.

It's hardly big fat news that the Zionists have to go for there to be peace in the region.

Since "country" is not at all the same as "regime", wanting the end of a regime is not at all the same as wanting the end of the country, as the current status of all the countries I mentioned in my examples above (all alive and well) shows.

Your claim that people hoped for the end of Israel (the country) is not supported by you pointing out that those people want to dismantle the regime, because they're quite different things and the latter absolutelly can be dismantled without the "end" of the former (in my examples above the countries didn't even suffer, quite the contrary: all those countries are better of now that those regimes were dismantled than they were before).
