And the abuses against the Palestinians will march on as a two-state solution is sniffed out by Bibi and his extremist supporters.

What a shame that he won.

The US should impose the same sanctions on Israel that we have voted on for Russia's annexation of the Crimea if Netanyahu follows through on his West Bank annexations.

WHY are we giving them $4BILLION a year in US taxpayer welfare to fund their murderous regime.

Congrats on Bibi’s 5th term. Good news.

Murderous? So that makes Hamas and the radical jihadists.....

Another victory for right wing racism.

70 years of brutality and land grabs against the Palestinians. The question is, what does the Trump junta and its supporters have to gain from the continual oppression of the Palestinian people?

How much longer are the people expected to suffer, to have tanks crush their homes, to have their culture and freedoms eroded?

Shame on Netanyahu and Trump. There will be repercussions, I have no doubt about this.

So why won’t the other Arab nations help them or take them in this situation?

When will Hamas recognize Israel as the legitimate nation of the Jews and stop calling it occupied territory.

Shame on Netanyahu and Trump.

No shame on Hamas for disregarding their people and the money they get that could help them.

Name calling?

It's a description of a corrupt government, which currently, both Israel and the USA have. So no, it's not name-calling.

If you know your history of the Nakba, and subsequent terrors visited upon the people of Palestine, you'll be aware that millions fled over the years to Lebanon, Jordan, Kuwait, Syria, Iraq and even Saudi Arabia.

When will Hamas recognize Israel as the legitimate nation of the Jews and stop calling it occupied territory.

It is a racist, apartheid state which has broken international law by taking land away from Palestinians. It came into existence with Theodor Herzl's dubious immigration plans, not to mention terrorists like Irgun and Lehi.

Palestine was the home to Arab Jews, Arab Christians and Arab Muslims. 70 years of brutalisation and attempted to erode the culture and value of the people has changed all that.

This is the way of the colonialist, be it Ireland, South Africa or Palestine. Dehumanise the people of the land you take and legitimise oppressive rule.

Can I assume that the Palestinians will celebrate this victory by continuing to launch their V-2 rockets at the women, children, and other unarmed civilians in Israel?

Disgusting. Evil.

@zichi. You forgot the 14000 estimated, (mostly children), unarmed Palestinians deliberately shot in the knees with live explosive rounds to cripple and maim them.

If you want a true picture of the carnage that the Israeli regime inflicts on those it has declared foreigners to Israel despite them being the majority of the ACTUAL population of Israel, check out the Palestinian Center For Human Rights Gaza. Not only will you get the picture of recent slaughters and oppressions, their records extend back to before the first rocket was fired out of Gaza (but not to the time before the Israeli regime was firing rockets at the civilians of Gaza, which we are supposed to believe is retaliation for those other rockets)

You could follow the creation of Hamas back to the influence of Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, who aided the extermination of Jews during WWII.
