  1. “A ceasefire agreement has been reached between Israel and Gaza
    in order to bring [a pause] to the hostilities in the region”

    Fixed it.

  2. Gerry Harifas says

    Turks from Xanthi and Komotini go to study in Turkey and go back to live in Greece. If you have property in Greece, you can go to Istanbul and find the deeds (with Arabic script). This is because Islam believes it is obligated to retake any land they once held. The Palestinians are kept in refugee camps by demagogues who use them as human shields so their water, sewage, schools and hospitals keep getting destroyed to make them militant. Philip Abbot Luce told how the left did this in the USA in the 1960s: they would put their young recruits near the youngest police and then do things (like throw bottles full of feces) to make both of them break down and inflict atrocity on each other. Then afterwards, they would approach both and say “See, the system stinks, join the revolution.”
