Israel stopped occupying Gaza in 2005.
Yes, for 2-3 years out of the past 56 years, Israel officially took a break from occupying one region of Palestine.
What do you mean? They haven’t occupied it since 2005. You need to learn better reading comprehension
So did you... You're implying you only read that sentence of that article.
Try to look for news of Israel occupying Gaza following their reoccupation in 2007.
Are you referring to the battle of Gaza in 2007, where Hamas took control of Gaza? Do you think Hamas is Israel?
No, the 2007 blockade on gazan land , presence of IDF soldiers in Gaza and subsequent incursions into gazan land air and water, since for some reason you guys want to ignore the rest of colonized Palestine.
Where did you get the idea that Hamas is israel? Amazing. Read more than the headlines that you're googling.
This is bafflingly stupid. How is a blockade an occupation? Just admit you were wrong about it, Israel doesn’t occupy Gaza.
Setting aside the blockade on Palestinian land that is definitely an occupation, Israeli military also occupies the land, water and airspace of Gaza(occupies is a conjugation of the word "occupy, if you are still confused).
It's clear that you have no idea what you're talking about, but if you look at the other threads in this post by people like you who also didn't know what they were talking about, you can follow the links and threads that explain the UN resolution that labels this blockade that you all are so obsessed with as an occupation, as well as the occupation of Gaza by the Israeli military on gazan land, water and in the air.
Ya ig'nant.
This is getting ridiculous, you just keep doubling down even though this isn’t even something you can have an opinion on, it’s just objectively wrong, so I’m done wasting my time.
You are objectively wrong about the occupation of Palestine, agreed.
Yes, I am repeating the facts that you won't take the time to read, research, or(most likely) acknowledge because they so simply disprove your demonstrably false claim.
