Here we go again. News do not seem to move any of our nerves anymore. A threat sent through the Egyptian intelligence to the "leader" Mesha'al" in Damascus to liberate the prisoned Israeli soldier, Gilad Shalit. The threat is again..To give orders to the Israeli forces to go into the Gaza strip with unusual methods of ground offensive. I cant tell you much about reactions, because I barely knew about this news, and when I did, haven't seen much reaction from people.
A threat of a "big, creative, invasion" is no longer a surprising story. It has been said many many times by Israeli leaders. To clean up Gaza. Most of us here think that this will not happen for many rational reasons.There are more weapons in Gaza than the Israeli army would carry for offensive, maybe not the sophistication or the armed vehicles,"my exaggeration maybe, but this is the feel from here and what we see everyday and every hour".
I say..Whatever. But. There is an obvious irresponsibility, and maybe intention to keep the pressure and the situations unsolved in Gaza. Whether it is from Mesha'al or from the bunch here, from Fatah or Hamas, or both. A Gazan is not thinking now of his/her experience with governance or democracy, and not thinking in the process of change of power. He/she is fighting any change by imposing the personal/family/private equation.
The Israeli military court in the West Bank have released the PM deputy. and they are thinking about releasing more of the Legislative council's representative soon. Does that mean that the new government will be formed and the Israelis agreed to the terms discussed. Hamas didn't. They changed their minds while Abbas was at the United Nations in NY. Why all this is happening? Hamas leaders are not respecting their people. They are not even realizing that they are responsible for a whole society not a political party!
Note on Hasan Nasrallah. I was resisting to watch his speech in the festival of his victory. but i ended up watching every bit of a second. I was resisting because of shame, not because Palestinians couldnt do resistence well,,,if any. but because of the respect and honor he has and present to people, even to his enemy.
I cant really see anything positive coming. Maybe short term solutions. but even that, i hardly could see it.

It is hell of frustrating, I can understand you very well!!
I agree to your analysis .. they do not seem to grasp that they are responsible for a whole society - who is suffering more and more - and NOT ONLY for their own party-ideology!
Is there nobody who could break that to him once in no uncertain terms?
I wish so much things would improve for you all ...
Despite all - do NOT despair dear! Rest assured I am with you, MANY people are with you, loving and supporting you! You're certainly in my prayers!
Big hug!! :)
Thank you for sharing your perspective. It is clear that diplomacy is the only rational, productive way to settle disputes and conflicts.

Naj, I wished I could just wave a wand and everything would be fixed. I know that is not possible, but do feel sure that my prayers and others are praying for the time when peace will come to Palestine.
