I very much doubt Canada or Mexico will be firing rockets at the USA anytime soon. (I'm also not sure if they have any). So let's not worry about it..OK? 😏

If USA build walls against Mexico well inside (and I mean miles and miles), even surrounding Tihuana and other US interesting sites, Mexico wouldn't be happy.
If USA occupied territories within Mexico, and to keep the occupied Mexico territories went in with bulldozers, ruined Maxican homes, preparing settler sites in the most attractive areas, Mexico w ...[text shortened]... this resembles anything happening right now, far away from USA, but still supported by USA?

I think you need to chill, rather then have a pop at the guy
He is only answering the question and your "belittling him" at every turn
You can not be that niave to realise that the people in Gaza have not, very little food, little fuel, their "terrioirty" is bascially one big police state controled by Isreal, so what do you expect the people to do ? ...[text shortened]... heir is no hope of a future for your children, thats what happens.
Can you not see that ?

Originally posted by Rajk999No, I'm letting you know of the reality of the situation for the parents of the children who are not allowed to travel, who are not allowed to set-up a state, who are not allowed fuel, who have no hope in life, who's hospital's are not allowed medicen or are running low.
Making lame excuses for the parents?
What about the terrorists who hide among the civilians?
Make an excuse for them as well ... come on ... lets hear it ...
Every decent nation on this earth has said what they think about the situation, Isreal have broken countless G Convensions with "their miliatry" attacked.
But my bottom dollar, if you where in the same situation, you would do the same thing
If you can't see that, I feel sorry for you
You may view them as terrorists, but the reality is they are fighting for their land that was "stolen" from them

They the people in Gaza, have nothing to live for.
They have nothing, donlt be so naive to say its all their fault, you know its not
Their only choice is to fight with rocks, mini rockets etc
Their econcomy is nothing, they donlt even have fuel, water supplies which are controled by Isreal.
Try thinking, you live in the US (from your flag I presume), this land was stolen from the native Indians back in the day, wheather you accept that or not.
If the native indians come back and say, my god gave us this land and they come along then kick you out your house into a ghetto with nothing
Are you honestly going to say to me that you not going to do anything to try and get your house / land back?
If while your in this ghetto, you have no rights, are mis-treated, are controled in every way, are you honestly going to say, sure I'm not fighting back ?

Generally ask the authorities of the other country to arrest the criminals.
If that fails, get the UN involved: Negotiate, peacekeeping troops, sanctions, resolution for war.
Like any normal country would, really.

BUT
what if the question was
" what would you do if a bunch of foreigners came and took most of your country from you?"
answer: "i'd fire rockets at them?"

what would you do if your little country gave a little strip of land limited autonomony and in return they elected a party determined to annihilate your little country and fired rockets into your little country for several years?
