Letter to the Editor—Gaza
As a citizen of and believer in democracy, I applaud the efforts of the Palestinian people. Their efforts are similar to what is happening in many other parts of the world. Believe it or not, one thing that overrides capitalism and political correctness in the United States is the right to have one’s voice heard. This is the foundation of which our democracy is built on.
The Palestinian people should continue to defy Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu’s powerful armed forces so that Palestinian democracy can continue to thrive. It is unfortunate that the United States compromised on one of its most fundamental values in order to protect its economic interests in the Middle East; something that happens all too often domestically as well. It is not the Palestinian people that are attempting to expand Hamas and Hezbollah power but rather it is Netanyahu who has engaged in intimidation to prevent the will of the people {both Palestinian and Israeli} from being heard. Why else would he stoop to such underhanded tactics to block various means of communication among the citizens of Palestine and Israel? Why is Netanyahu forcing Israel to return to the Cold War utilizing political strong-arm tactics such as violence? Netanyahu, you have had over sixteen years to acknowledge Palestine and have failed them by your own choosing. The days of your despotic regime are finally coming to an end as it appears the desire for freedom will continue to sweep among the Middle Eastern nations as well as Israel.
Accordingly, let the call go forth among all citizens of Palestine that your brothers and sisters of democracy {from all over the world} are with you during every trial and tribulation you may encounter during this crisis. To the people of Palestine, the trumpet of freedom beckons you to rise in protest and louden your voice to preserve your sacred heritage, promote your children’s future and obtain the blessings of liberty we all cherish. Palestine, the hour of your redemption is at hand. As you the rightful citizens move forward to reclaim your own country, rise and strike! In the name of those who were murdered fighting for everyone’s rights, rise and strike! To push back this evil regime, rise and strike! Let no one continue to fear this man. Every Palestinian must be strong and fight on for their freedom. Rise and strike!
Benjamin “Bibi” Netanyahu, you little weasel…let Palestine go! The whole World is watching !!!

Free Gaza of Palistinians! The root of hatred begins with the Palestinians.
Well 1st off, the US is a republic not a democracy. 2nd, if my short term memory is working it was Hamas who crossed the border and murdered 1200+ innocent citizens of Israel. 3rd, if Hamas/Palestine spent all the money they get donated on infrastructure for their people instead of rockets maybe things would be better there. 4th, if they practiced peace instead of Jihad maybe they would have peace. The Arab nations use Palestine as a pawn to poke at Israel. If they really cared they would of took in the Palestine people. They don’t want them either as they know it would disrupt their own nations as the Arab tribes hate each other they just hate Israel more. Palestine is just a training ground for hate as is a decent amount of the middle east. They teach their children to hate Jews and Christian’s. They commit terrorism and then Hamas hides behind civilians. In saying all of that it’s not the US’s war. We should not be funding it nor should we be telling Israel how to conduct it. The US should only be demanding its citizens back and NOW should be made clear. If Hamas didn’t turn over the US citizens it should be made clear we will come and get them.
This article was just a backwards attempt of a pro terrorist view. Taking 5min to push back on it is how you keep this garbage from spreading.
