The Palestinians did not start this conflict.

President Biden needs to stop the genocide of Palestinians.

Israel started this conflict now they need to end it. Israel’s entitlement was emboldened under Trump.

Gaza is not going back into Israeli possession.

The latest attacks by Israel are about racism. Hate can never be a reason for war!

The Biden peace initiative is novel in that it is taking place in his first term. Everything bout the Biden Administration is novel. He is tackling some of the most contentious issues between Democrats and Republicans. Expect more of the Biden Administration's place in all peace talks, especially, between Israel and Palestine.

Israel must stop it's aggression both in this latest war of hate and in the streets of Jerusalem. The USA embassy in Jerusalem will act as a place of peace and bring about solutions for the continued racism. The conflict between these two peoples should have been addressed as soon as there was tension in the streets of Jerusalem. It is outrageous the USA didn't demand an end to conflict at the point where it began. Escalations always end in bloodshed and death. The Death Toll today is over 200 people. That is an outrage within the streets of one of the most holy cities in the world.

After a raid by the Israeli police on the Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem left hundreds of Palestinians and a score of police officers wounded, militants in Gaza responded by firing a barrage of rockets at Jerusalem, drawing Israeli airstrikes in return.

The catalyst for the escalation was the conflict over recent Israeli efforts to remove Palestinians from strategic parts of the city. The issue became a rallying cry for Palestinians, who saw the moves as ethnic cleansing and illegal, and right-wing Israeli Jews, who said they were fighting for their property as landowners while also attempting to ensure Jewish control over East Jerusalem....
