Who currently occupies the West Bank and Gaza Strip?

But I think it's a good thing. People working together is one of the best ways to get a better understanding of people you would normally never meet. I've met a ton of different people through tech and it's one of the best parts about it. Meritocracy.

Israel?

[krembo]

Israel doesn't occupy the Gaza Strip, and we could argue about the occupation of the West Bank.

> Israel doesn't occupy the Gaza Strip

Well, except for the airspace and territorial waters, and enforcing it's security zone on the Gaza side of the Oslo Accord demarcation line.

I mean just read this UN report https://irfanchowdhury98.com/2019/03/04/unhrc-report-on-gaza...

[point78]

Yeah, they're only bombing the Gaza strip

[pgtan]

Please stop!

[point78]

Who ?

[scirocco]

Not occupy but surely controls import/export into Gaza?

[objektif]

Yes thats what he meant occupy is like the bare minimum of what they are doing. They do so much more.

Gaza is held by a terrorist group, defined as such by US and other western countries. It also keeps attacking Israel with missiles. Nevertheless Israel exports medicine, food and concrete on a daily basis to help the civilians in Gaza. Do you think Israel should help them more in any way? What is a sufficient aid for an area which you're in war state with? In addition, for importing/exporting commodities, Gaza could use the their western border with Egypt, which in contrary to the Israeli border, the Egyptian is closed most of the time for the same reason - Egypt doesn't accept the terrorist regime in Gaza. Maybe you think Egypt occupies Gaza as well?
