A man set himself on fire outside the Israeli Embassy in Washington, the police said.
The man, who filmed and livestreamed the protest, was taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries. The U.S. Air Force confirmed he was an active-duty airman.

“I will no longer be complicit in genocide,” a man said in the video, echoing language that opponents of Israel’s military action in Gaza have used to describe the campaign. “I am about to engage in an extreme act of protest.”

In this current war between Gaza and “Israel”, the Zionist army has inflicted a civilian death toll in Gaza that makes Daesh [ISIS] look like a group of humanitarians.

Behind the Gaza statistics, there are human beings. "We Are Not Numbers" is a website that chronicles some of their stories:

https://wearenotnumbers.org/

"When the world talks about Palestinians living under occupation and in refugee camps, it is usually in terms of politics and numbers – specifically, how many killed, injured, homeless and/or dependent on aid. But numbers are impersonal and often numbing. What they don’t convey are the daily personal struggles and triumphs, the tears and the laughter, and the aspirations that are so universal that if it weren’t for the context, they would immediately resonate with virtually everyone."

The Perseverance and Challenge of Jewish People in the Holy Land


The Jewish. Now they must face their greatest challenge and provide for legitimate self rule and economic development for the Palestinians in the occupied territories. The peace of the world and the survival of Israel will remain at risk until this is accomplished.




General Assembly Adopts 5 Resolutions on Middle East, including Text Urging States Not to Recognize Changes on Status of Jerusalem, Pre-1967 Borders
Through the terms of the text titled “Peaceful settlement of the question of Palestine” (document A/74/L.15) — adopted by a recorded vote of 147 in favour to 7 against (Australia, Canada, Israel, Marshall Islands, Federated States of Micronesia, Nauru, United States), with 13 abstentions — the Assembly called on Member States to ensure that agreements with Israel do not imply recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the territories it occupied in 1967. The Assembly reiterates its call for the achievement of a just, lasting peace in the Middle East and an end to the Israeli occupation, while calling on Israel, the occupying Power, to comply strictly with international law, cease actions aimed at altering the demographic composition of the Territory, and immediately halt all settlement activities.

Now
As the Israel-Hamas war rages, the “two state solution” has been making headlines across the world. US President Joe Biden, UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abas have all expressed support for the idea, which would see Palestinians and Israelis each have a sovereign state of their own.

Palestinian Education
Israel's attacks on Gaza have destroyed all 12 of Gaza's universities. 280 government run schools, and 65 UN-run schools have been destroyed.

There are outrageous reports in this interview with the vice president of the last standing university, which has since been with, 300 Israeli mines.

Bible is unreliable
Jacob Shelton wrote; Turns Out The Original Bible Is Drastically Different From The Version You Grew Up With
To find changes in Bible verses, one simply has to find some of the most popular sections (the Ten Commandments, the immaculate birth, etc.) and compare one Bible to a different version. It’s likely that you’ll notice something different. The biggest Bible changes happen when a church branches off from its parent and tries to set out with its own identity. Jehovah’s Witnesses and the Church of Latter Day Saints, for example, have managed to add their own bible histories to the mix, making things significantly murkier than they already were.

Rabbi Elhanan Beck: Israel is the most dangerous place for Jews
Elhanan Beck, a rabbi and a member of the anti-Zionist Neturei Karta movement, asserted that the state of Israel is far from providing the safety and security it claims to provide Jews, and is in opposition to the Jewish faith.

All prophets must be respected and revered
But some people insult other religions. I believe that the main reason is the presence of distorted verses in the Torah and the Gospel, which gave some people a wrong perception. The second reason is that political parties deliberately spread ideas against religions, especially the role of Zionism in insulting Islam.
We notice in the following verses a clear violation of the behavior of the prophets:
Genesis [9:20]:
Noah, was the first to plant a vineyard. He drank some of the wine and became drunk, and he lay uncovered in his tent. And Ham, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brothers outside. Then Shem and Japheth took a garment, and covered the nakedness of their father; their faces were turned away, and they did not see their father’s nakedness.
Genesis; 19: 30-36
And Lot went up out of Zoar, and dwelt in a cave, he and his two daughters. 31 And the firstborn said unto the younger: 32 Come, let us make our father drink wine, and we will lie with him, that we may preserve seed of our father. 33 And they made their father drink wine that night: and the firstborn lay with her father. 34 And the firstborn said unto the younger, Behold, I lay yesternight with my father: let us make him drink wine this night also; and go thou in, and lie with him. 35 they made their father drink wine that night also: and the younger lay with him. 36 Thus were both the daughters of Lot with child by their father.
The Second Book of Samuel [11:2].
2 David arose from off his bed, and walked upon the roof of the king’s house: and he saw a woman washing herself; and the woman was very beautiful. 3 And David sent and inquired after the woman. And one said, Is not this Bath-sheba, the daughter of Eliam, the wife of Uriah the Hittite? 4 And David sent messengers, and took her; and she came in unto him, and he lay with her; and she returned unto her house.
5 And the woman conceived, and told David, and said, I am with child.
First Book of Kings [11]
King Solomon, however, loved many foreign women besides Pharaoh’s daughter—Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Sidonians and Hittites. 2 They were from nations about which the LORD had told the Israelites, “You must not intermarry with them, because they will surely turn your hearts after their gods.” Nevertheless, Solomon held fast to them in love. 3 He had seven hundred wives of royal birth and three hundred concubines, and his wives led him astray. 6 So Solomon did evil in the eyes of the LORD; he did not follow the LORD completely, as David his father had done.
The Book of Hosea [1:2]
When the LORD began to speak through Hosea, the LORD said to him, “Go, marry a promiscuous woman and have children with her, for like an adulterous wife this land is guilty of unfaithfulness to the LORD.” 3 So he married Gomer daughter of Diblaim, and she conceived and bore him a son.
The Book of Exodus [32:2].
When the people saw that Moses was so long in coming down from the mountain, they gathered around Aaron and said, “Come, make us gods who will go before us.” 2 Aaron answered them, “Take off the gold earrings that your wives, your sons and your daughters are wearing, and bring them to me.” 4 He took what they handed him and made it into an idol cast in the shape of a calf, fashioning it with a tool. Then they said, “These are your gods Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.”
Deuteronomy [32: 48, 52]:
48 On that same day the LORD told Moses, 49 “Go up into the Abarim Range to Mount Nebo in Moab, and view Canaan, the land I am giving the Israelites as their own possession. 50 There on the mountain that you have climbed you will die and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people. 51 This is because both of you broke faith with me in the presence of the Israelites at the waters of Meribah Kadesh in the Desert of Zin and because you did not uphold my holiness among the Israelites. 52 Therefore, you will not enter the land I am giving to the people of Israel.”
The Book of Isaiah 20:2
the LORD spoke through Isaiah son of Amoz. He said to him, “Take off the sackcloth from your body and the sandals from your feet.” And he did so, going around stripped and barefoot.
Objection to the validity of these verses
Prophets are believers and they are the only people most capable of resisting Satan and adhering to the teachings of the Lord.
Jesus used to say:
Matthew, chapter 5:13
“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet.’’
This means:
As salt preserves meat from rotting, believers in Jesus, help to preserve humanity from falling into godlessness, immorality, chaos, and the resulting judgment.
These teachings are for all people, so how could prophets commit flagrant violations of the Lord’s teachings?
This means that whoever wrote the Bible distorted it. Many studies point to this distortion, including:

https://file.scirp.org/Html/8-1650387_48549.htm

This paper argues that there are at least five reasons why the claim that the Bible is to be taken literally defies logic or otherwise makes no sense, and why literalists are in no position to claim that they have the only correct view of biblical teachings.

Richard Friedman argues in his book; Who Wrote the Bible? that Ezra is the one who redacted the Torah, and in fact effectively produced the first Torah.

Hi Toodygirl5
You deny the word of God - the Qur’an - and you have no evidence for that. This puts you in front of a difficult reckoning on the Day of Resurrection and you will enter Hell. What would you say in that case? You will say, “My Lord, bring me back to life so that I may do good deeds.” The Lord will say to the angels: Take her to the torment of the blazing fire in hell.
Revelation 20:12: And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

Agnes Callamard, Secretary General of Amnesty International said:
“Israeli attacks have destroyed street after street of residential buildings, killing civilians on a massive scale and destroying essential infrastructure, while its new restrictions are causing Gaza to rapidly run out of water, medicine, fuel and electricity,” .
“For 16 years, Israel’s illegal blockade has turned Gaza into the world’s largest open-air prison – and the international community must act now to prevent Gaza from being turned into a massive mass grave,” she said.
We call on Israeli forces to immediately stop unlawful attacks in Gaza, and to ensure that all possible precautions are taken to minimize harm to civilians and civilian objects. “Israel’s allies must immediately impose a comprehensive arms embargo given grave violations under international law.”

Idiom used when a bad situation is not fully resolved and can easily re-escalate;
'Kick the can down the road' is an expression that conveys the concept of a problem accompanying one on one's journey, and that by one's own deliberate attachment to it, rather than resolving the matter and leaving it behind as one progresses.

Solve the problem by stopping the war and siege on the Palestinians
