Alright let me try to take a stab at this...
What do I think is needed for longstanding peace: 1. Dismantling the settlements in the West Bank and giving that land to the PA to create a state, under the assumption the PA doesn't go the way of Hamas in Gaza - so they will need support. 2. Elimination of all the terrorist organizations who want to kill every Israeli and every Jew (and every Christian. I think that seems like a fair bargain.
2. Jesus what a loaded question. I don't think anybody is a lesser citizen. I do not condone Israelis policy in the West Bank and I am extremely critical of Israels lack of support for Arab Israelis.
3. This is veiled anti-semitism. Be careful with your wording here, and I will explain why: This is a perfect example of "victim blaming" that is happening all over the media, where somehow in some crazy la-la-land it is Israels fault for getting all these citizens murdered and raped and kidnapped.
4. The two articles you mention about Israel "creating" Hamas make no sense to me... Hamas was a splinter off-shoot of The Muslim Brotherhood.
5. Bibi and his responsibility for the war. There is only one organization that is responsible for this war and that is Hamas. Had Hamas not done what they did there would be no casualties in Gaza and you know that. Full Stop.
Bibi (and the far-right cronies in his government) are responsible for fanning the flames of hatred between Israelis and Arabs, eroding what little progress and hope there exists in the West Bank, and pushing anti-democratic policies in Israel. But don't get confused, the WB is completely different that Gaza- with oversight by a totally different governmental entity.
7. Ha! So the two videos you linked to are from a sect called Neturei Karta - they are anti-Israel but from a totally different perspective - because they have extreme religious views that Israel can only be "created anew" when the Messiah comes, and the country was created without the arrival of the Messiah in 1948 - so they opposite the concept of it based on religious grounds. BTW they are a very small and very extreme ultra-religious offshoot of jewish orthdoxy - Last I heard they had an estimated 5000 members total. BTW I know plenty of rabbis who want peace - you just happened to reference the Neturei Karta
8. I actually agree with this - far right messianic Christian (aka Evangelicals or Christian Fundamentalists) from all over the globe do support Israel because of "end of times". But keep in mind that less than 15% of people who refer to themselves as "Christians" are Evangelicals - and even within evangelicals there are multiple different streams. I would say probably 7-10% of Americans are Evangelical in the way depicted in this article.
