Here's an example of childrens' Palestinian TV shows. Nevermind the content, the quality of the product is so bad its unwatchable.

Palestinian videos

I'd be bitching too if I was that kid and could only watch this crap. Maybe that is the real reason for suicide bombing.......thinking about having to spend the rest of your life looking at TV shows like this would make me want to end it all too

The people of Gaza voted Hamas into power. Rockets still rain on southern Israel while Hamas says Israel has no right to exist. Hamas and the people who voted for Hamas did this to this child, not Israel. Israel can be criticized for many things, but not this. Israel withdrew from Gaza and Hamas is what the Gazans chose.

Tell you what, let Hamas have a free election, with international supervision and see what happens. If Hamas is re-elected then this child can only blame the voters. If the voters choose a party which will recognize Israel, then Israel will bear some responsiblity. But Hamas has created in Gaza a one party state; Fatah has been silenced. They whine that their house is on fire, yet they are the ones who burned it down.

Frankly, the Arab states don't care. If they did, the Royal Saudi Navy would be escorting relief ships to Gaza with their frigates and corvettes.

Looks like the makings of a future homicide bomber to me.

No food or water, yet he doesn't look like he's starving or parched. No cartoons. What did kids do before TV? I mean, it's only been around for the better part of the past century.

Total propaganda.

This is a situation where Hamas is to blame.

Israel voluntarily withdrew from Gaza, granting Gaza "independence."

Israel is no longer under any obligation to provide anything to Gaza, much like the US is not under any obligation to provide any economic assistance to Mexico.

Gaza was able to elect their own leaders. They elected leadership which the Israeli government does not have any wish to deal with. This is no different than our leaders refusing to work with Iran.

The only reason the West Bank area has electricity, fuel, and water is because of Israel. Prior to Israel taking over that land, Jordan certainly didn't provide that. If Israel withdraws from the West Bank, you can be sure the West Bank cannot support itself and there's no way Jordan is going to come through.

So the people living there have to make a choice. Do they want the ability to run their own country but live without all of the Israeli handouts, or can they compromise on a peace deal?

Hamas lobbed thousands of rockets in Israel and continues to lob rockets there.

Do you deny they did this AFTER Israel disengaged from Gaza?
