Dear Israel,

Are you a Psychiatrist? If not, keep your mental health opinions to yourself.

I've never heard of a Palistinian Jihad.

The Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine (Arabic: حركة الجهاد الإسلامي في فلسطين‎, Harakat al-Jihād al-Islāmi fi Filastīn) known in the West as simply Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), is a Palestinian Islamist organization formed in 1981 whose objective is the destruction of the State of Israel and the establishment of a sovereign, Islamic Palestinian state.

Islamic State terrorists conquered large areas of the Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp in the Syrian capital Wednesday and are battling Palestinian faction Aknaf Beit al-Maqdis for control, media reports indicate.

"Fighters from ISIS launched an assault this morning on Yarmouk and they took over the majority of the camp," said Anwar Abdel Hadi, Damascus-based director of political affairs for the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO).

This latest incursion represents ISIS' most significant territorial gain into Syria's capital.

Meanwhile, a senior Hamas leader Yehia Hourani, was killed in the camp on Monday, according to a Hamas statement which referred to Hourani's death as an assassination.

Yarmouk once hosted 160,000 Palestinians and Syrians. Now, however, only about 18,000 people remain in the camp that has been controlled by various groups over the past four years. Originally under dictator Bashar al-Assad's rule, the Yarmouk camp was taken over by moderate Sunni rebels and at one point also conquered by the al-Qaida affiliate Jabhat al-Nusra.

The siege has caused significant food and water shortages, imposing a humanitarian crisis over the camp's remaining inhabitants.

A little bomb to say ... "Hey we are going to blow up your house in 30 minutes and since you are a dirty Arab there is nothing you can do about it....!"... how nice.

I think that the people blowing up houses and killing civilians are doing something bad whether they are Israeli or Palestinian. Wrong is wrong no matter which side you are on.

In total I think the Palestinians have it much worse than the Israelis (between houses being bombed or bulldozed, raids, military strikes and the economic siege)

Of course they do as the Israels can defend themselves far better then the Palestinians however it is still the Palestinians who wish to wiped the Israels off the face of the earth not the other way around and are the attackers.

Netanyahu just won an election by saying the Palestinians will never get a State under his watch

Netanyahu's words are twisted.

The prospect of a Palestinian state is nil so long as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stays in office, Netanyahu said in a Monday interview.

Asked by an interviewer with the Israeli news site, NRG, if it was true that a Palestinian nation would never be formed while he's prime minister, Netanyahu replied, "Indeed."

No that is what he said after the election when he tried to backtrack it.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyhau said Monday that if he were to be reelected, a Palestinian state would not be created, in a definite disavowal of his 2009 speech, in which he had voiced support for the principle of two states for two peoples.

Netanyahu's remarks in an interview with the NRG website - which is owned by casino mogul Sheldon Adelson and tied with the settler newspaper Makor Rishon - were a last-minute attempt to pull right-wing voters away from Habayit Hayehudi.

"I think that anyone who moves to establish a Palestinian state and evacuate territory gives territory away to radical Islamist attacks against Israel," Netanyahu said. "The left has buried its head in the sand time and after time and ignores this, but we are realistic and understand."

During the interview, Netanyahu declared that if the Zionist Union were to win the elections, "it would attach itself to the international community and do they bidding," including freezing construction in West Bank and East Jerusalem settlements, and cooperate with international initiatives to return Israel's borders to the 1967 lines.

In total I think the Palestinians have it much worse than the Israelis (between houses being bombed or bulldozed, raids, military strikes and the economic siege). I would feel far safer and more comfortable in a Israeli neighborhood than in a Palestinian one.
