No One Should Kill Others for Aggrievances, But there Are Reasons to be Angry

No One Should Kill Others for Aggrievances, But there Are Reasons to be Angry, Upset

One casualty was Gaza International Airport, a symbol of thwarted Palestinian hopes for economic independence and the Palestinians' only direct link to the outside world that was not controlled by Israel or Egypt. Opened in 1998, Israel deemed it a security threat and destroyed its radar antenna and runway a few months after the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks on the United States.

Another casualty was Gaza's fishing industry, a source of income for tens of thousands. Gaza's fishing zone was reduced by Israel, a restriction it said was necessary to stop boats smuggling weapons.

The above yellow highlighted sections I acquired from this Reuters article:

We have to let people have the freedom of commerce.

Destroying airports and limiting fishing and sea access does not work. Sure, there are threats, but there needs to be better safeguard to check the boats and planes, coming and going.
