Thank you, Doc. I really appreciate it.

I was looking at the language of the area. Definitely Arabic was spoken, but it came from Aramaic, which I recall was reportedly what Jesus spoke.
The Arabic that's spoken there didn't come from Aramaic.
Thank you, Morley. What did the Phoenician language evolve into and what preceded modern day Arabic?

When the followers of Islam conquered the Levant, they brought Arabic with them. Arabic didn't evolve from Aramaic or Phoenician. That would be like saying that English evolved from Swedish.

Thank you, Morley. Very informative.

This Wiki page on the Phoenician alphabet has some interesting information:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phoenician_alphabet

As of today, 2 December 2023, Israel wants to create a buffer zone in the Gaza. My take is it wants to create a no man zone, likely a kilometer between: a new innnerwall/fence and the wall/fence which is on the border.

Robert Reich wrote an interesting piece addressed to his Jewish and Palestinian students who express fear.

Thanks Rep Ipsa. The author writes well. I've read other writings of his on other issues. He's spot on.

I have a hard time believing that most Palestinians don't support Hamas and don't attempt to indoctrinate their youth to hate and kill Jews. The Palestinians either need to be eradicated or completely reeducated when Hamas is eliminated or this is never going to stop until all the Jews are dead.
And when the Confederates saw Jackson standing fearless like a stonewall, the army of Northern Virginia took courage and drove the federal army off their land.

Nothing released by the IDF can be trusted. They've already been busted recently lying about videos and conjuring up fake audio clips purporting to be Hamas. You believe it because it feeds into your religious bigotry. But Hamas isn't all Palestinians or even the majority of them. You believe this because that makes it easier for you to justify the slaughter of thousands of babies.

So you believe the video I linked is a fabrication and never happened? Or are you saying it's been taken out of context? Or are you saying families should receive lifelong payouts for killing Jews whereever and whenever they find them?

I'm saying the IDF has been shown to be lying and untrustworthy so any "video" or audio pushed by them I don't even bother with anymore. It is engaged in propaganda. Are you denying they were recently busted for making up a fake audio clip of "Hamas" claiming to have bombed the hospital? Right after they were busted trying to claim video footage from a year prior proved it? Or their hilarious depiction of "HAMAS COMMAND CENTERS" under Hospitals they refused to allow journalists to walk until after they were able to stage the scene? Or their idiotic and laughable claim that a simple calendar in Arabic showed where Hamas soldiers wrote in their shifts to guard the area? Why would anyone in their right mind trust anything the IDF or any of their propagandists in the media say? It is biased to the cor. Mehdi Hassan was just fired because he hosted an Israel apologist who flat out said Israel hasn't killed any children, claiming all of the journalists are believing their lying eyes.
