#Macron keeps returning to the 2014 & 2015 #ceasefire agreements, known as the #MinskAccords, that were forged after Russian-backed separatists attacked & grabbed #territory in eastern #Ukraine but that failed to prevent #Russia’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine. He seems intent on convincing #Trump that a hasty cease-fire will not end the underlying conflict.

I dislike talking about Israel and Palestine. You get extremest, every time you do.

Some extremest, claiming Palestine has no right to exist, with others extremest claiming Israel has no right to exist, and both of them wrong and morally bankrupt. Especially since both extremist want to ignore the existence of the Ottoman Empire, which existed from 1299 to 1922. Instead, they want to cherry-pick a date afterward, that they feel makes their argument appear more valid.

Both have the right to exist, peacefully.

And if you do not think so, please block me, because I don't think you're a real human being, but a troll or a terrorist or a crazy person, and we have nothing to discuss.

2,000,000 people relocated?

I am against the idea of move everyone out of Gaza. That's both insane and morally wrong!

The original report, suggested Gaza was going to be rebuilt and that seemed like a good thing. But kicking everyone out and taking the land for ourselves, that's just messed up, if true.

While this move is widely surprising and unpopular, I can see this possibly working. -- Lots of pushback, but I can still see this working.

When Gaza's footprint is overlaid onto New York City, it covers an area roughly the size of Manhattan, the Bronx and Hoboken, New Jersey, combined (see photo). The population of Gaza was only 8 million before the war, and imagine it is less now.
