I don't understand....

This post is a post sent out to all people who want to read regarding my views on the recent Gaza Strip battle. Everyday when I read the newspapers, there has been reports of violence all over the world. But, mainly for the time being, the spotlight is on the most recent bloodshed, the Gaza Strip conflict. Reports have said that the two fighting parties, mainly the Israelites and the Hamas, are having a cease-fire forced by the United Nations. It has been reported that 800+ Palestinians, but they did not say how many Israelites died. But, people have been making exaggerations that only 13 Israelites have died so far. I find that this is untrue because there is no such way such a small number of Israelites have died during almost a month's of fighting. A few of my friends have been affected by the killings indirectly because they feel the Israelites are wrong while the Palestinians are right because the Hamas are Muslims while the Israelites are Jews. Though it is true that in the Qur'an, there is a part that is written that Jews will forever be our mortal enemies, I believe the new, younger generation of Israelites and Hamas do not neccessarily will want to fight each other to the death. A person will change throughout the course of his life either for the better or for the worse and that is determined by God, his/her upbringing and the everyday choices they make in life. Hence, when you say it is right to take out Israelites or Hamas, it is wrong because there is still a handful or a big lot of Israelites and Hamas that are good and believe that they can work hand in hand together in the near or far future. Another point to bring is that my friend recently said that there should be a reincarnation of a Hitler or Stalin to exterminate all Jews. That's really extremist and I think that is not the way to go. Hitler was a person who thought he could make the world a "clean" by exterminating Jews in POW camps. Stalin on the other hand used brute force and cunning to reach the top and he ruled with an iron fist, scaring any competition away. Eventually, the once-believed-gone Tsar rule was back but under a different cover. Either way, both men used their propoganda and power to seize their dreams of obtaining their perfect worlds which in the end remained just a dream. They did crimes against their own people, fellow countrymen who did nothing wrong. That is a crime against humanity. We should never revive such monsters again. Back to the Gaza Strip conflict, I think the UN should step in and the conflict might escalate to a full blown World War. We, humanity, cannot let such fighting continue. We should stop it, do not pick sides or play the blame game, just get the war to a nice, peaceful closure. Isn't that UN was made for? To help mankind? In my eyes, they just don't want to intervene because they're afraid it will become a thriple threat, UN vs Hamas vs Israelites. But, we should learn from our past mistakes. Look at Rwanda, they're still recovering from their civil war many years back. It could have been stopped just weeks into the fighting had the UN decide against to intervene. Instead they watched from the sidelines and let the small puddle of bloodshed become an ocean of death. Finally, in the end of it all, Jews and Hamas are sort of religiously linked to one another. Moses and our Prophet Musa are the same, hence, aren't the two sides killing themselves and each other at the same time?? Plus, I think Zionists are the ones who reacted wrongly to the situation. It is understandable why 800 Muslims have died, they're bombing the place everyday. Hamas also reacted wrongly to the situation by firing rockets at Israel in the first place. Hence, I think we, the people from the other nations, should unite and stop this madness( It's not Sparta either) from happening now and in the near future.
