  2. Bassem seems to think Israel acts without restraints, but I think that if that would really be the case, there would be no palestinians left in Gaza and West Bank. They would have been pushed to Egypt and Jordan. (And despite such displacement nowadays being defined as "genocide", it would probably actually be long-term better for everyone than generation after generation being lost to this stateless resistance situation.)
