      Yes, because Israel breaking the supposed rules of war is not the root of the problem? How do you think Hamas became radicalized? They are the survivors of decades of school and hospital bombings and blockades, etc.
      In the last 2 weeks, Israel has struck 22 hospitals in Gaza (and the West Bank for no reason because Hamas isn't even there). Churches, schools. THAT is where terrorists come from.

In any event, I hope you'd agree that election results don't reflect the views of all voters. (I certainly wouldn't have wanted to be put in the same bucket as the folks who voted for Trump.) Palestinians, I presume, are just as heterogeneous as "Americans" and "Jews" and every other demographic group.

    Rules of war! I'm not taking any sides here, nor agreeing with any of the carnage and suffering imposed on innocents on both sides. As a historian, just saying that historically, if any state or entity felt it was fighting for it's very survival/existence (and it could be argued both sides here are doing that) then the rules of war went out of the window. Wouldn't it be better to devote 100% of all efforts into ending the causes of the conflict rather than talking about the rules of war? Easy to say I know.

    I find it amusing that war has laws and rules, almost an oxymoron.
    Edit: It appears that some individuals who lack proper reasoning are struggling to comprehend my point. Once a war has begun, it becomes impossible to enforce laws or rules. As humans, we are fundamentally against war for this reason. Picking a word from my writings to build an argument against is just petty. I hope you find your way in life.

    an interventionist and militant mindset has brought about a shadow over the world's economies, disrupting the natural flow of progress and balance.
    The interventionist approach, where powerful entities seek to control and manipulate economic systems for their gain, creates a world of inequality. It fosters an environment where the few prosper while the many struggle, leading to imbalances that weaken the very foundations of our global economy. The pursuit of short-term gains often takes precedence over the long-term well-being of both people and the planet.
    Militant actions, whether economic or political, result in conflict and instability. These actions divert resources that could be better used for nurturing growth and development. Such mindsets perpetuate a cycle of competition and hostility that hinders cooperation and mutual benefit.

    I am writing to you today as a dedicated reader of The Economist for several decades, a publication I have come to deeply respect for its insightful analysis and commitment to unbiased reporting. However, recent coverage of the Israel/Palestine conflict in your magazine has left me somewhat surprised and concerned about the magazine's impartiality and honesty in reporting.
    The Economist has long been a trusted source of information, known for its balanced approach to complex global issues. Nevertheless, as I have followed your coverage of the Israel/Palestine conflict, I couldn't help but notice what appears to be a certain bias in the reporting. It seems as though The Economist may be leaning towards one side of the conflict, which has raised doubts about its credibility in my mind.
    I implore The Economist to maintain its legacy of journalistic integrity and fairness. The Israel/Palestine conflict is a deeply sensitive and complex matter, and it is imperative that your publication presents all sides of the issue and strives for a comprehensive, unbiased viewpoint. We, as readers, rely on The Economist to provide us with accurate and objective reporting that presents the facts without taking sides. The magazine should stand as a paragon of trustworthy journalism, a beacon of truth, and a source that distinguishes itself from sensationalist or biased news outlets.
    I encourage The Economist to remain true to its founding principles and uphold its reputation for honest reporting. Please ensure that the magazine's coverage of the Israel/Palestine conflict remains objective, balanced, and transparent. By doing so, you will reaffirm your commitment to delivering the truth and the facts to your readers, without falling into the trap of sensationalism or partisan reporting that can be associated with certain other media outlets.
    In conclusion, I sincerely hope that The Economist will take my concerns to heart and make the necessary adjustments to ensure the highest standards of journalistic integrity are maintained in its reporting. I look forward to seeing a continued commitment to unbiased and honest coverage in the pages of your magazine, preserving the trust of long-standing readers like myself.
    Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I remain a dedicated reader, hopeful that The Economist will continue to be a beacon of journalistic excellence.
