    This is the most historically ignorant comment I've seen this past week. There have been multiple wars in the past century where Arab nations were the aggressor and had the stated goal of genociding the Jews in Israel. Also, the last time the UN actually did something approaching that scale was the Korean War. Absolutely nothing since. They're incapable of defending an entire nation.

    Any plan that involves the disarmament of Israel is just a plan for genocide. Educate yourself, you're unbelievably ignorant yet you have access to the internet.

    EDIT: Purposefully murder dozens of babies? Coexistence is possible!

      You think their neighbors are going to attack a multinational UN taskforce? I don't think you have the right to call anyone ignorant honestly.

        The arrogance to think anybody would shy away from attacking "a UN taskforce".

        You know, PKs get killed all the time. UN employees get killed. Everybody gets killed.

        You think it's going to be different here? Or you are just ignorant of how this works cause it's not interesting?

        UN is not something which would enforce rules. It's not built for that, it's not a world government.

          The arrogance of thinking indefinite bombing and killing will get you what you want.

          I'm not saying it will be easy, but if the world doesn't enforce something endless cycle of killing will never stop. Neither side is interested in anything other than extermination now. Not acting will result in some form of genocide. You could say one is already underway.

            It's not about easy or hard, it's about this not happening cause there's no force to make it happen.

        Yes? Terrorists from neighboring countries already attack Israel, a vastly stronger military force than they are. We literally just saw Hamas terrorists gladly launch themselves into suicide attacks to hurt Israel. There are multiple nations near Israel (i.e. Iran) that don't give a fuck about the UN.

        It doesn't have to be an organized military from a sovereign nation to attack and kill hundreds or thousands. If you want to actually stop the regional violence you would need to disarm the entire Middle East.

          Ofcourse Iran cares about the UN. You think they don't know what will happen if they blow up a few German or American peacekeepers?

          You think Bibi's policy of concentration camps and mass bombing is going to improve things? It's worked so well so far.
