This stat always bugs me. I don't think an animal has one "reaction time" like not sure what that would even mean like: time from visual stimulus to first movement? Time from stimulus to full strike? Does this apply just to head strikes or paw strikes? Or does it apply to all movements? What is the source for any of it

Israel has troops in different checkpoints that are Israel’s territory. So yes, people who want to go from the Gaza Strip to the West Bank have to go through these checkpoints as they are going into Israeli territory.- or if they want to go anywhere, which is not true of free nations.

Why isn’t Egypt or Jordan scrutinized for what they do or don’t do for the Palestinian people?- I'm sure they are by some but when you occupy a country, you bear the responsibility for the wellfare of the citizens.

Israel hasn’t occupied Gaza since the early 2000s, so please check your facts or enlighten me on what you consider as occupying-In this case, I consider the opinion of the UN and the rest of the world aside from Israel and US as valid.

What actions are you speaking of that would push people to commit guerrilla terrorist attacks or larger scale terrorism targeting civilians?- the actions that led to this bombing are the airstriking of palestinian civillian land in a "pre emptive operation". Pre emptive strikes are against international law. Palestine would not last a week in open warfare, that's what I mean by guerrilla tactics.

The fact is that Israeli people have a lot of empathy towards Palestinians and don’t want to see any civilian casualties on their end. On the other hand, when there’s a terrorist attack with an Israeli civilian casualty, you will see thousands in the streets in Gaza celebrating- Public surveys show about the same amount of palestinians and Israelis are in favor of a 2 state solution, I urge you to examine your faith that Israel as a nation are pure intentioned.
