As soon as the negotiations are complete, Palestine has a flag ready.

About (click here) one-tenth of Gaza's population of 1.8 million people have now sought refuge at UN-run sites.

The threats the Palestinians face are real and they are lethal.

This is the tone this war is taking on:

Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei (click here) on Tuesday accused Israel of committing "genocide" in Gaza and called on the Islamic world to arm Palestinians fighting "the Zionist regime".

The USA State Department needs to continue to speak to Iran and bring this tone within reason. Netanyahu continues to escalate the tone of this war. This is a direct result of the increasing number of deaths of innocent people. There are no reasonable words coming from Israel.

“You’re having this PR war between Hamas and Israel and the United States. That’s just not a healthy place for us to be,” Rogers added later.

Rogers is the Neocon on the US House Intelligence Committee. Typical of Republicans it is always a media war. This is not a media war, there are over 1000 Palestinians dead, it is obvious it is not a media war.

..."The US president issued a fatwa that the resistance is disarmed so that they cannot respond to all those crimes (committed by Israel)," the supreme leader said, referring to a call by Barack Obama for the "disarmament of terrorist groups and the demilitarisation of Gaza". 

"We say the opposite. The world and especially the Islamic world should arm ... the Palestinian people," Khamenei said....

When Israel crosses the borders into Palestine and Gaza is Palestine, there are always large numbers of dead and incredible destruction. Additionally, Israel carries out very aggressive settlement policies into Palestine in the West Bank. There is every indication these methods by Israel won't stop. Israel angers other nations in the area, including a global community. The world wants the Palestinian borders settled. Until those borders are settled this tone will continue and as long as Israeli leaders continue to rant about war they will be creating a greater and great problem for peace. Even the Pope has not influence with Israel after a public photo opportunity to begin the process of peace.

...During the last major conflict in and around Gaza in November 2012, Larijani said Iran was proud to have provided "both financial and military support" to Hamas.

Israel accused Iran of supplying Gaza militants with its Fajr-5 missile, which has a range of 75 kilometres (45 miles), during that conflict....

When Israel conducts belligerence as a policy it provides a platform for retaliation. It seems so odd for the leader of the Shia to speak up to defend Sunni Hamas. There is a minority of Shia within Palestine, but, they are not within Hamas. Israel is just making everyone angry. The deaths of helpless people in Gaza is enraging to anyone. Israel's methods are not conclusive to peace. The deaths of any helpless people enrage the world. One sided war isn't the only method of death that enrages people, drought, starvation and suffering enrages the global community.

Israel is wrong in every definition of the word. There is no way to mitigate the deaths and end the killing. The world is held hostage no different than the nation of Palestine. Israel is simply infuriating the civilized world. Iran's Supreme Leader is simply more verbal than anyone else.
