The Israel Hamas Conflict - What the History Tells Us

With the current conflict in Israel between Israel and Hamas, which has attracted significant global attention, Phil Cornish attempts to explain why it attracts so much global attention and highlights the historical nature of the conflict, which has been ongoing for thousands of years. Phil also touches on the Advent of postmodernism, which emphasizes subjective truth values, and the abandonment of eschatology, the idea that God has a plan for humanity. These themes help to provide background and context for understanding the conflict in Israel today. Phil explains the historical and scriptural backgrounds of the conflict, including the creation of Israel as a nation and the Genesis story of God's promises to Abraham. The conflict is seen as a result of the Israelites ignoring God's plan, leading to their exile until their regathering in Israel. Phil also compares the population and land control of Israel to that of its Arab neighbors, emphasizing the vast disparity between them. Phil focuses on the discrepancies in the treatment of humanitarian aid donors and the behavior of Hamas, a terrorist-sponsored group that displaced its rivals and holds no elections.
