The Middle East Jews and Palestinians have been at each other’s throat for almost since time began. But now each country is armed with multiple missile weaponry and they are using it against each other like there’s no tomorrow. And there won’t be any tomorrow if any country with nuclear weaponry capabilities decides to press the atomic/hydrogen red bottom because they are loosing a war conventionally fought.
Of course many of these smaller countries are being shored up financially and militarily by their allies. The US supports the Jews in Israel and Iran supports the Palestinians Arabs. Everybody (warring countries) is treading lightly (using only missiles, etc.) for fear of a third (and final) world war breaking out.
The situation is complicated to say the least. Israel revenge for the initial Palestinian attack has gone way beyond what could be considered morally right. The Palestinians have been forced to move southward until there’s literally no more room to do so any further. Humanitarian aid has been spotty at best. Innocent Arabs are starving to death as we engage.
It’s ironic: the US sends money for missiles to Israel who bomb the Palestinians, and humanitarian aid to the bombed-out Palestinians. Go figure.
