    There are amusement parks, beach resorts and night clubs… there’s a few travel vlogs showing what life was like before the attack on 10/7. I was quite surprised to see what was available there after the years of media.

    Not saying it was the coastal beauty it could have been, but they had amenities that you didn’t exactly find at Auschwitz or Bergen…

      You’re talking about Gaza or Tel Aviv? I’ve been to Gaza man, 95% of them didn’t have clean water in 2014 and that number didn’t change up until today. Gaza itself was a hellhole.

      The resorts and stuff you see are on Jewish territory. They’ve destroyed anything nice Palestinians have.

        I’m talking about Gaza. I’ve been there too, once they elected Hamas their fate was sealed. The potential was there before they fucked themselves for generations. Israel left a lot of infrastructure in place When they pulled out.

        It wouldn’t have been Tel Aviv, they would never achieve the Tech power of that city but they could have been a real nice vacation spot.

          They “elected” Hamas. In an election that was never certified, had more votes total than people living there and there hasn’t been an election since.

          But even if they legit did vote for Hamas I wouldn’t blame them. Killing Israelis after all they’ve done is just.

            So revenge is cool in your books. Interesting. Let’s see how that works out. Not a strategy id suggest.

              I’m going to laugh and laugh when the collective Muslim world grinds Israel to the dust one day. I’ll probably even get to see it in my lifetime.

                They’ve been trying for 75 years and getting their shit pushed in. They probably like it though which is why they keep coming back for more.

                Maybe you should go join the liberation Army if you’re so keen on killing Israelis. I’m sure the IDF would love to use your fatass as target practice.

                  Just watch lol.

                  The problem is the US is getting dragged into that, and, speaking as someone who knows something about the subject, Iran almost certainly has a few nukes smuggled within US borders. The CIA has recovered quite a few soviet era nukes that were smuggled into the US, Vice did a decent job showing how black market nukes are in the US.

                    The thing is… while Iran might have a few nukes, Israel does too and they’ll act first like we’ve seen. That’s a given. Tehran would be glassed before they could find their codes.

                    If you think the US or Israel is going to lose that foothold in the region you’re insane. There’s a clear reason there are Aircraft carriers in the region right now and that’s daring Iran to be a retard here and have their regime changed.
