We Had a Chance to End the Conflict and We Chose to Burn It.

In 2005, something historic happened.
Israel withdrew completely from Gaza - not just its soldiers, but also all of its civilians, farms, and settlements. Thousands of Israeli families were uprooted from their homes by their own government. Synagogues were dismantled, greenhouses and infrastructure worth hundreds of millions of dollars were left behind - not destroyed, but handed over to give us a chance to start fresh.

For the first time in our history, we had full control over a piece of land - our own borders, our own cities, our own people, and access to the sea. The world was ready to help. Billions in aid and investment were promised.
It could have been the beginning of a Palestinian Singapore.

But instead of building schools, hospitals, and industries, we built tunnels, rockets, and militias.
Instead of creating hope, we chose hatred.
Instead of turning Gaza into proof that Palestinians can govern themselves, we turned it into proof that we cannot.

When Israel left, the world expected calm, peace, and progress.
What did we give them?

Civil war between Fatah and Hamas.

Executions in the streets.

A terror group seizing power and turning Gaza into a launching pad for endless wars.

And the world still asks: Why doesn’t Israel “just give up the West Bank” too?
Because they already saw what happened the last time they gave land for nothing in return.

The truth is painful, but it must be said:
We were given a chance to build a future and we used it to destroy our own.
We could have shown that we were ready for peace.
Instead, we showed that we were ruled by those who fear peace more than they fear death.

Every rocket fired from Gaza wasn’t just aimed at Israel - it was aimed at our own future.

And now, after all the destruction, poverty, and death, I keep asking myself:
What if, just once, we had chosen life instead of revenge?
We had the opportunity to end the conflict.
But our leaders and too many of us chose to keep it alive.

I have a hypothesis about why Indian CEOs are being selected in such large numbers by international boards.

Indian CEOs are, of course, smart, talented, and capable leaders. But plenty of Americans, Brits, Israelis, Europeans, Chinese, Japanese, and Koreans are too.

And it's not just about speaking English either, as some think, given immigrant Indians are chosen as being better than American or five eyes born native English speakers who are equal, or more in numbers in the western talent pool.

My theory is that they're chosen because they tend to be docile and servile along with all the great qualifications and qualities of a leader.

An Anglo-Saxon white, Chinese, or Israeli CEO might let their community's or birth country's interests creep in and interfere at some point. Or they will just be more brave and open about voicing their opinions and taking decisions which may affect shareholder value.

For example, in the recent H1B visa fee hike case, I saw so many Whites (including Elon), Jewish and Chinese Americans (including CEOs) openly come out against it and support hi-tech immigration, even directly support Indian immigrants.

Indian origin leaders, on the other hand, are a safe bet for keeping their mouths shut in silence. For instance, they haven't yet posted a single line condemning racial targeting, attacks, or killings of Indians, or speak out against H-1B visa policy changes that hurt their own community - or even their own company.

Indians, especially India born ones, can just be trusted to play it safe, focusing solely on their personal and company interests. In fact, they'll bend over backwards to serve their boards, companies, and the deep state, if any, dictating.

My hypothesis can be further proven by seeing that India born Indian origin leaders are picked for CEO jobs in US companies, and not many US born Indian Americans (not even close) who are as qualified with all the great credentials and just as good - if it is really the race or culture that makes good CEOs.

Because, even though they are Indians with similar achievements, qualifications from top schools, and capabilities, being born and brought up in the US, they tend to have a bit more of the independent American spirit and much less of the docility and spineless, servile attitude.

Recently, I had the chance to take part in a public conversation with Mosab Hassan Yousef – “The Green Prince”.

Mosab is pure intensity. Every word counts, every sentence hits like a truth-bomb. For two hours straight – razor-sharp insights, almost prophetic.

Very few people in the world have walked the path he has (if any), which makes his insights on the current situation truly unique and eye-opening.

Many people have asked me what he said about the Palestinians, Israelis, children in Gaza ,Western leaders, Antisemitism, possible solutions to the war – and about himself

Here’s the essence 👇
