Israel vs Palestinians II

Did you find my summary of the article an honest summation?
Yes.
Close enough.
The “facts” of the article are in dispute and they have made admissions of some of them at the bottom of the article…..but yes your summary of the article was correct.
But honesty has never been a problem for you.
 
I’ll take saving the thousands of Americans and the 10’s of billions maybe even hundreds of billions wasted

If we are working under the decision we get to simply make one change in history, you could achieve the same result by simply having Clinton take Bin Laden out.

And you still get to weaken Russian influence

No you don’t. We were sending them hundreds of millions yearly before Clinton. Arming, funding and training extremists is ignorant and always will be

Reality isn’t as black and white as you’re pretending it is. Limiting the power of Russia matters.
Im not making it black and white. You said simply taking out bin Laden achieves the same result. That’s over simplifying it and not true. Limiting Russia by sending hundreds of billions to jihadis that results in thousands of US deaths and endless wars. Yup great decision

Hard to make a more black and white statement than this and then immediately proclaim you’re not.

Arming, funding and training extremists is ignorant and always will be

We didn’t spend 100s of billions. That’s simply false

I went back. Nothing in your post provided anything. So I read the linked article.
See if this bullet point summary is honest for you:

• PA takes over governance in 2005 after Israel pulls out 9,000 settlers.
• Hamas clashes with Palestinian leaders.
• Hamas takes control in 2006. No elections since.
• Hamas is backed by Iran (money, weapons, etc)
• Israel enacted blockade in 2007. Egypt also enforces. Many international groups are critical.
• Palestinians are basically split on who should govern between PA and Hamas. Support waxes / wants depending on critical events.
• The blockade has devastated Gaza economy, opportunity.
• Israel's control of movement in/out of Gaza is extremely restricted.
My post answered the question along with information in the link.
"Israel controls imports, exports, airspace, offshore resources, movement of people, etc."
I'd change the last word to restricting from restricted. Otherwise I guess those points were in the article.
