  1. Israel pulled completely out of Gaza in 2005. It has not been an "occupied" territory.

  6. If you hold someone for for own protection from capture . . . that is a hostage.
    1
  7.  @Smurfman3041  One could say that. But when Hamas took their hostages, they did not have any requests or demands. They took hostages solely to use them as shields against capture. On the other hand, Israel does not have any hostages. Israel has prisoners who are accused of committing crimes. Either hostages taken to use as a shield or prisoners accused of crimes can be used as bargaining chips (after the fact). At the time of capture, the prisoners/hostages on either side were not taken expressly to be bargaining chips. The best bargain you could make with a hostage is to guarantee your own life and freedom. This is why bank robbers take hostages inside the bank. You will not see Hamas trading off all of their hostages. They have to keep some to guarantee their own safety. Normally, the bargaining idea comes along after the fact.

  9. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Lebanon is a peaceful country and up until the Beruit explosion was very wealthy and considered the Riviera of the Middle East. It was a world tourist hot spot. The current population is a mix of Christian and Muslim and they get along with no arguments about it. They have NO problems living next to Israel. You are just blabbering your fake, made up Lebanon history.

  14. They started the war. They can figure out where to evacuate. All they need to do is get out of Rafah. You can do that by walking 5 miles.

  15. There is no solution to war because God is punishing us. The only solution is for everyone to stop sinning.

  16. The occupiers are innocent because they took Gaza from the occupier Egypt in the 1967 war and they took The West Bank from the occupier Jordan in the 1967 war. And international law states that as long as the Palestinians keep attacking Israel, they may continue the occupation. That gives Israel the right of defense.
    1
  17. ​​​ @Mrs_Malave 90% of the Palestinians are immigrant colonizer Arabs from Arabia. They are not indigenous. They immigrated to Israel-Palestine AFTER the Jews started making something out of it. They were looking to ride the back of Jewish industrialization to a better future.

  20. Why condemn what the Israelis did for 75 years when what the Arabs have done twice as many bombings and stuff for 104 years?
    1
  21. Why are you falsely claiming that they were "treated like dogs" in the occupied territories for 75 years? The facts are that Gaza was occupied by Egypt from 1948 to 1967 and the West Bank was occupied by Jordan from 1948 to 1967. The additional facts are that if the Arabs would stop attacking the Jews with their bombs, they would be treated much better.

  22.  @nedimvehabovic5419  Wild dogs who keep biting people are not treated any better. But my point was that you have your years wrong.

  23. @nedimvehabovic5419  Humans are mature adults with highly developed brains. They understand ethics, morality, and consequences. They can decide whether to react like dogs or not. I already explained the years in my first comment to you.

  24. @nedimvehabovic5419  Let me give you some advice: Do not start reading a novel with chapter 13. I will not answer that or discuss anything from that chapter. You start reading a novel at chapter 1. That way you will understand the whole plot to the story and who is the antagonist and who is the protagonist. I will not fall prey to your trick question. Incidentally, your facts are false and I will not fall prey to false facts. And why is it my job to explain someone else's decisions and actions?

  28. It is not an illegal occupation and it is not against international law. Stick to the facts.
    1
  29. @LS-kl6bj  There is no law written ANYWHERE saying that one country cannot occupy another country. This is the fact on occupation. It cannot be illegal because there is no law about it. Somebody claiming they see it as being illegal is not law.
    1
  30. @LS-kl6bj  😊😅🤣 It is actually your ignorance that is staggering. There is NOTHING in your citation saying any occupation is illegal. 😊😅🤣 Furthermore, the Geneva convention is not law -- it is a Treaty that is agreed to by a handful of countries who have signed it. If a country has not signed the Treaty, it does not apply to them.

  34. Well he did interrupt her. But she had already answered the question and just wanted to launch into a long tirade. She needs to answer the question, then stop.

  35.  @mussaratbashir1828  It was a simple question: Do you condemn the Hamas attack? Yes or no? If you refused to answer, I would kick you off of the set.
    1
  36. @mussaratbashir1828  It was a simple question and your answer is completely wrong on a number of points: 1. The 34,000 number is completely fake and Hamas has admitted that. 2. Your 14000 children number is completely fake. 3. Whether those numbers are fake or correct does not matter because there is a war going on and people get killed in wars. That has nothing to do with anything. 4. There is no possible way October 7 could be called self-defense. 5. If you call it retaliation, my mother always told me that "two wrongs do not make a right" and whomever retaliates for any reason is flat wrong. 6. If you call it retaliation, it is also wrong because you cannot retaliate against someone who did not do anything to you. At a minimum you would have to retaliate against the specific Jew who had killed someone in the past. "Retaliating" against an innocent person is unjustified. 7. You are blaming Israel for the living conditions in Gaza when the facts are that Hamas stole their money. 8. I do not know about Jews killed 200 Arabs in the past. But you cannot blame the whole country for something that 200 individuals did. That is the same for stealing houses. You have to blame the robber. You cannot blame the whole country. 9. The 1100 people who have not been released are not "children throwing rocks" -- they are terrorist suspects for attempted bombings and if they are released, they will do more bombings. And obviously, a terrorist suspect cannot be called a hostage. The facts are that October 7 is not complicated to understand. It was a random attack on innocent men, women, and children who had done nothing whatsoever against anyone and had not been judged guilty by any court. God will judge whoever did that attack and they are NOT martyrs -- they are cold-blooded murderers. Also Rania did not have any difficulty explaining her position. She was very clear that she would not condemn the attack because they are an oppressed people and Rania claims that an oppressed people are justified in doing ANYTHING. That is what she said. As far as condemning Israel, that is a separate question to be asked in a different interview. But as I said, you cannot blame everyone in the country for what 200 people do. It was not "a loaded question." It was a simple question with a simple yes or no answer.
    1
  37. @mussaratbashir1828  This is a war. People get killed in wars and they get locked up in wars. This is expected. It was a simple question with a simple yes or no answer. It is not hard to say: a. I condemn this attack. b. I do not condemn this attack. How people lived in Gaza? Hamas stole all of their money. 🤔 How the West Bank lives? The West Bank "Palestinians" are bedoin Arabs. They have been riding camels and living in tents for thousands of years. They are nomadic. They never owned land.
    1
  38. @mussaratbashir1828  You say that: Israel killed 200 people. Then in retaliation, Hamas killed 1200 people. That led to Israel killing 34 thousand. You do not see the problem here?
    1
  39. @mussaratbashir1828  Oh nonsense. The Palestinians attacked the Jews in 1920. The question is not about the whole history of Palestine. You say that: The Jews killed 200 people. Then in retaliation, the Palestinians killed 1200 Jews. Then in response to that, the Jews killed 34 thousand. You do not see the developing problem from retaliations?
    1
  40. @mussaratbashir1828  She was trying to jump in and do her preaching and tell her whole Palestinian story. You even said that. The interview is to answer some questions. It is not for one person to take over the interview and tell the entire history of Palestine. And why should Pierce challenge the guy on killing of babies on October 7? The whole world knows that happened. Pierce is challenging her whether she believes it is okay, and she did answer that and say she believes it was okay.

  41. How long does it take to say yes or no? They are both single-sylable words.
    1
  42. @Aari0masdi  It was an interview, and when the person whom you are interviewing dodges all around and refuses to directly answer a question that you put to them, they should be shown the door. They came on false pretenses that they would be willing to be interviewed and then refused to be interviewed. And you should be shown the door for attempting to twist truth and reality.

  46. You are wrong. They should first say yes or no. Then they can add additional stipulations to their answer. She should say NO I do not condemn Hamas and this is why . . .

  47.  @hjahanian10  The answer to a yes or no question is yes or no. She either condemns the Hamas attack or she does not condemn the attack. It is not rocket science.

  50. @hjahanian10  I am not agreeing because I would have to give that some thought. But that is not in the video. In the video, Pierce asks Rania a simple yes or no question and the answer is yes or no. In fact, Rania answers no at 7:35 in the video.

  56. ​​ @MJMilano7 The British colonists of America did not take America by force and neither did the Israelis. Where do you even get your facts? I am American and I say that anybody who comes to live here is a part of our colonization. That includes Rania. She is a "part" of oppressing our Native American population. She is a participant and accomplice. And she is a hypocrite. At least I admit my part in the oppression.

  63. It was not an explosion at a store. It was a warehouse at the port filled with ammonium nitrate fertilizer. Ammonium nitrate is highly explosive. The warehouse got hot and the fertilizer self-ignited. There was no "political interest."

  64. She blames Israel for being "a settler colony." But 90% of the Palestinians are Arab/Muslim settler colonists and she has no problem with that. Is she just racist supporting Arabs?

  68.  @manoneberhardt6227  The Christian Broadcasting Network has a reporter on the ground in Israel named Chuck. When this all happened, we were all in disbelief. So they sent Chuck to the location and he visibly confirmed everything. I personally saw the image of a pile of children that were burned alive. The United States Congress looked at all of the evidence and confirmed it. A Congressman said that they cut off the head of one guy and kicked it around like a soccer ball. It is all beyond anything disgusting. 🤮 I cannot believe there are people saying this was debunked.

  69. Attacking Israel is not "resistence." It is stupidity. Furthermore, Israel completely pulled out of Gaza in 2005 and the Gazans should have been reconstructing their country for the past 19 years -- not building missiles out of sewer pipe and fertilizer paid for by humanitarian aid. If they had spent all of that money on building up their country instead of hating Jews and making bombs, they would have some hope.

  72.  @garthreid5088  It was speaking of a group of non-jews living in the first century who were claiming to be Jews. The verse says plainly that it is not talking about Jews. What do you think "are not" means? It means they are not Jews.

  76. Hamas had 1000 homemade missiles stored up. They thought that it was enough to achieve some type of victory. I agree that it was a military operation.

  77. How does firing 1000 rockets into Israel with no real plan qualify as "resistance" ? How does randomly killing 1400 civilians and taking over a hundred hostages with no plan whatsoever qualify as "resistance." ? That is not "resistance" -- it is lunacy. Besides that, there is no official State of Palestine with any territory anywhere. So how can a random territory be considered "occupied" ?
    1
  78. The settlers bought their land and built their home on it. Anyone can do that. There are some that took homes from Arabs and kicked them out after 1947. But it is illegal to settle on someone else's land in Israel. So you cannot blame the whole country. And a United Nations resolution is behind it all by the way.
    1
  79. The United States of America was completely built on colonization. Even Rania here is an American colonizer. I see no reason to stop colonizing.
    1
  80. Actually, yes. They were both colonized, but the common word is occupied. Gaza was occupied by Egypt from 1948 until 1967 and the West Bank was occupied by Jordan from 1948 until 1967. How much actual colonization took place during that occupation is unclear.
