  3. Corey never goes to Gaza, for obvious reasons (Let's say he does not want it to be a onetime visit) he did interview few Gazans over the phone, and he did interview relatives who came from Gaza to Tel Aviv for a visit. In Judea and Samaria, he basically visits the cities of Ramallah and Nablus.

  5. The old community of Jews that used to live in Gaza perished in Islamist riots of 1929, concurrent with dozens of other communities, the massacre in Hebron was documented, you can see the photos of that ISIS style massacre in archives of the NYT. Photos like the gut churning photos of the massacre of Oct. 7 only in black and white. *In 1929 massacres were committed mostly by mobs. 1929 is 19 years before the reinstitution of Israel, 38 years before Israel recovered Gaza strip from Egypt, 37 years before the process of appropriating the title Palestinians by Arabs has even started.

  12. Lookup UNRWA's donor list For years the USA is donor #1. Add funneling of federal budgets through UN organization and NGO's, all in cash money (vs US made products that go to Israel).

  13. A refugee is a person that has abandoned his country of living and moved to another country facing new language society culture law etc. That was true for Jews surely not for Arabs who have moved 5-50km within the same country.

  14. @ "Brothers, half the Palestinians are Egyptians, the other half are Arabs (i.e. from the Arab peninsula/KSA)" Hamas Minister of Interior, Fathi Hammad, in an interview on Egyptian Al-Helma TV, 23 March 2012.

  16. Egypt controls its border Egypt could have taken children, women, elderly and sick only, it could have taken just 5% or 10% to ease the suffering, it would have changed nothing in the overall scheme, they just don't care enough or prefer to use them as pawns.

  22.  @iviarkSilverwood  For years the USA is #1 on UNRWA's donors list, and then there are budgets via the 13 UN organizations and ~70 NGO's that subsidize Gaza and the Palestinian Authority.

  30. @pasator "How many Jews do you have to get to know before you drop the stereotype?" None if one can apply logical thinking. But if he thinks in stereotypes then he was already been brainwashed out of logical thinking. Fun anecdote: A Muslim Indian colleague said: Jews are the richest! Me: We work for Mittal, the richest man in India, is he a Jew? Colleague (after long thinking): He must have some Jewish DNA.
