    Oh yes, the paradise open air prison created by Israel, which they now try to “re-build” to create a moon-style amusement park.

    And while I don’t hate Jews or any other race, I find it strange that no one here is talking about the elephant in the room. That the recent surge in hate crime is directly linked with the war in Gaza, and that people are tired of seeing Israel’s government overstepping their limits once again and trying to level up the whole of Gaza by carpet bombing it, without any consideration of human life.

    Have you ever thought that if Israel has found a peaceful solution of the Gaza/Hamas problem there would be a hate crime surge?

    And what about the hate crime against the Palestinians in the West Bank, which is documented, unprovoked and happening with the silent endorsement of the IDF? I am sorry but I find it a bit cynical to say the least.
