And if everyone says that about us, what then?

We'd be screwed.

Probably a good idea for Canada to not give anyone reason to attack us huh?

I do not know either. 

I already said Goodbye.

You do that a lot when your wrong, run away from the conversation that's all good...

We, the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have now done so much for so long with so little, we are now capable of doing anything with nothing.

By bombing hospitals, killing children and starving the entire population?

bombing hospital becasue hamas uses them as shelter and places to store ammo and weapons....The Geneva convention is very clear on this, but then again what does the UN know about anything that is not Terrorist propaganda....you and many other on here are very gullible...

Killing children happens in all wars, it is tragic, but women and children and the elderly pay the highest price in every conflict....starving the entire population ! they maybe hungry but starving is a little bit dramatic...I was in Somalia those people were starving....seen pictures of NAZI death camps those people where starving...Gaza well they are just hungry

Sure. That's why we should have welcomed them, instead we directed them to Palestine - the manner in which we did that as Canadians was really nothing less than an act of geopolitical vandalism. We effectively showed refugees how to colonize and dispossess indigenous people of their territories.

Jews and Judaism are indigenous to Israel/Palestine.  Arabs and Islam are not.  Their imperial armies invaded and conquered Palestine around 640 CE.  Israel/Palestine is filled with the ancient buildings, cities, religious sites built by Jews over millennia.  You could say the same for the Arab Muslims that have lived in Israel/Palestine the last 1400 years.  This makes things much more complicated than what you're letting on.

Given that Germany, Europe, America, Canada, etc were antisemitic towards them, it's easy to understand why Jews wanted their own country in their historical homeland.   Arab leaders specifically refused the creation of any Israeli state under any borders because they wanted to maintain the Islamic imperial control of the area that the Ottoman Empire etc had.  It would be like Canada refusing any self-determination of indigenous peoples on their lands and reserves etc in Canada and wanting to maintain full control, and then attacking indigenous communities when they wanted self-determination.

We used to behave like the Arabs do towards indigenous but we've moved beyond that thankfully.

That's no excuse for getting it the way they did.

Palestinians were accepting of Jews until the border was opened to millions of refugees and Zionists started creating the state of Israel violently.

Nope. Absolute bullshit. Hamas started this war by choice and they can end it by choice. Israel is busy turning Gaza into trouble and then smaller bits of rubble by choice, and they could end it by choice

100% their issue. Not even a teeny tiny amount to do with us. Right now, today, those parties can make a decision. So far Israel's decision is they won't allow any more of their people to be harmed and will eliminate the threat to their nation that exists inside their borders. The date gaza's decision has been to get the crap blown out of it, deliberately get its people killed, and watch everything they've built turn to smoke and ash along with a sizable portion of their population.

Not the decision I would have made but what can I say, I'm pro not getting blown up or having my family killed. I'm funny like that.

By international law passed by the UN General Assembly?

This ignores all the conflict in Mandatory Palestine prior to 1948.   There was also hardly any Jews (about 10-15,000) remaining in Palestine prior to the start of Zionism in the 19th century.

Also, Arab nations attacked Israel immediately upon its declaration of dependence in 1948, not in response to violence by the state of Israel.  The creation of Israel was done via legal resolutions passed by the UN General Assembly.

You don't know the facts. And it's easy to tell that you know you're in the wrong here because you're running around doing your little down arrow thing again and you only do that when you know you're losing and you're pissed off
