    Genuine question: What if this incursion was a direct result of an intentionally provocative action that everyone involved knew to be highly likely to provoke a violent response? Does that change anything about the scenario?https://twitter.com/yishaischwartz/status/996173669830479873 …

    David Gorski, MD, PhD added,

    Genuine question: What are the appropriate tactics to use when repelling an incursion of 50,000 members of an enemy population? The only responses less acceptable than the status quo, are: a) "let them in," and b) I don't know, but I'm going to condemn Israel anyway.

        And before the usual attacks start flying, be aware that historically I've been pretty pro-Israel. My question is genuine.

        could be something bigger than just the embassy move. After Syria fall-out, Hamas ties with Iran restored: Hamas chief https://reut.rs/2iCVxWL

        Trump & Kushner knew this would happen, everybody knew this would happen, that's why the embassy wasn't moved until now

        David the embassy unveiling was timed for "Nakba" when Palestinians remember their ethnic cleansing from their lands. UN has reported civilians shot over half a kilometer from border fence by Israeli snipers - that is before any potential "incursion" could even have taken place.

        I also find the use of the term "enemy population" interesting. As if the Palestinians were an invading army instead of the ones having their lands systematically taken away.

        It condemns Hamas leaders. But does not excuse execution by sniper. Would you have joined those (and there were many) who claimed MLK jr "provoked" the violence on the Pettis bridge.

        Would you have supported the British when they opened fire at the Jallianwala Bagh massacre because Gandhi was "provocative?"
