"Israel has a right to self-defence, but it has to be done within international law ... cutting water, cutting electricity, cutting food to a mass of civilian people is against international law," said EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell on Tuesday (10 October).

He repeated the view more than once in his press briefing. "The Palestinian people are also suffering," he added.

An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind. This cycle of violence and repression needs to stop.

Good luck stopping a millennia old feud

Not a millenia old feud. A one-centure-GB-US-Iran engeneered old feud.

Heard a lot of shit Iran's supposed to be involved with in the region, but it's the first time I hear them being accused of having engineered the Israel -Palestine conflict. How do you figure that? I would've understood accusing France for their involvement in sykes-picot, or even the Turks since the Ottomans administered the region in early 20th century. But Iran started supporting the Palestinians after the 1979 revolution, before that the Shah very much supported Israel. So I have a hard time seeing how they could be blamed for engineering the conflict.
