    Aid going into Gaza before the invasion happening has probably saved hundreds of thousands of lives.

    A man has been charged with murder and hate crimes after allegedly stabbing two people because they were Muslim.

    Joseph Czuba, 71, is accused of killing a six-year-old boy and injuring a woman, 32, in Plainfield, Illinois.

    The victims were targeted because of the current conflict between Hamas and Israel, the Will County Sheriff's Office said.

    Mr Czuba was charged with first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder, hate crimes and aggravated battery.


    In a statement, the Will County Sheriff's Office said that on Saturday morning it received an emergency call from the woman who said she was being attacked by her landlord.

    The woman said she "ran into the bathroom and continued to fight off her attacker", the statement adds.

    When officers arrived at the scene they discovered the woman and the boy with "multiple stab wounds to their chest, torso, and upper extremities".

    Both victims - who have not been publicly named - were taken to hospital, but the boy later died. It was later established that the child was stabbed 26 times.

    "The knife used in this attack is a 12-inch (31cm) serrated military style knife that has a seven-inch blade," the Sheriff's office says.

    The woman, who was seriously injured, is expected to survive the attack.

    Mr Czuba was found "sitting upright outside on the ground near the driveway of the residence," the statement says.

    He was taken to hospital for treatment before being questioned by detectives.

    "Detectives were able to determine that both victims in this brutal attack were targeted by the suspect due to them being Muslim and the ongoing Middle Eastern conflict involving Hamas and the Israelis," the Sheriff's office added.

    Here's a passage from a kid's book. My avatar image is its cover.

    "Reality is relative. Devils, evil spirits, witches and so on become real enough to the people who believed in them. Just as God is to people who believe in him. When people live their lives by their beliefs objective reality is almost irrelevant."

    And no, it's not in support of your post.

    They are referring to Gaza and West Bank dufus.

    You can't have your cake and eat it to. You can't deny a group of people self determination to form their own state and own their airspace, waterways, electrical grid etc and the people in those places not be part of your country. Those places belong to Israel. The people in those places are not Israeli Citizens and don't have basic Israeli rights. Therefore Apartheid.

    But it is accurate.....and does represent religion.

    Which is in the business of control and getting more followers, and as such is the opposite of peace.

    Reality is reality, it is not relative - but it is ruled by perception.

    The problem is PEOPLE have been taught to fear the WITCHES, not those that HANGED them.

    how was that person full of ****? The 2006 elections happened decades ago and majority of palestians DID NOT vote for hamas. They won by 4 points in a election that shouldnt have even happened. The israelis begged bush to ban hamas from the election but opinion polling showed hamas losing by big numbers so bush as a betting man bet on "democracy'' lol.

    Please go and do some research and reading. US tax payers literally put Hamas in power.

    At the time of the oslo accords Arafat was recognizing Israel at a time when most folks back home did not want to. He went to the white house and really tried to get something done. I dont blame Arafat at the end of the day. You dont understand palestinian politics at the time. Majority of folks were very anti israel when he was negotiating

    If you thought Arafat was a terrorist you shouldve seen the opposition he was dealing with at the time. He was center of his coalition

    Well the leaders are stating that they need to remain on their land or lose their land. Asking them to "stay strong". Crazy ask when it's not your family being murdered. Agreed, criminals in power all around.

    One group is saying they will wipe them to the sea while the other is actually removing people off the land. The settlements in West Bank are backed by the Israeli army. Even Biden is asking Israel to not take Gaza away from Gazan Palestinians but focus on eliminating Hamas who Israel themselves funded in the 80s to counterweight the PLO so they can fight within themselves according to General Yitzhak Segev.

    Silly tag line which helps identify you as those individuals who is incapable of seeing the world in grey. I am sure you prefer good guys and bad guys as it allows your little mind to digest things better:). Disney movies might explain the world to you better. Don't blame you, the world is less stressful that way, you can see things way more clearly.

    I'm unfortunately old enough to remember some of the victims of PLO terror. They were the Hamas of their time.
