Surely there should be sanctions put on Israeli citizens like they've done on citizens, they should be banned from sporting events and their products should be boycotted in addition no country should be selling them arms to massacre and toture people. They'd wise up very quickly if this was done. Shame of a country
Palestinians manage to launch a rocket into their own neighborhood...no doubt the casualties will be totted up as victims of Israel.
What do you expect them to do just lie down and get bombed. Everyone saying Ukraine should fight back yet while Israel commit terrorist activities nobody bats an eye lid, no sanctions, no public outcry. Says it all about those in the western world. Maybe if they were white Europeans people would have a different attitude.
It's a final solution.
Same old tropes keep cropping up again and again in this thread as many of the usual suspects continue their obsession with Jews and bandwagon on the Israel Palestinian conflict.
Israel get away with stuff, literally because there is no deterrent.
the Israeli / Jewish vote IN the US is colossal. 8 million plus people I’m reading fall into those two categories…. So that’s why regardless of improprieties on behalf of Israel…neither the Democrats or Republicans would dare criticise Israel.
Look at Joe Biden, a centre left politician who was supposedly a bastion of fairness, is pro Israel, has visited Israel more then 10 times according to the White House, he is intrinsically silent and has been from day one…on trouble in that region. Just pays it lip service occasionally.
In the US…they’ve, both sides, got too much to lose…. So Israel don’t care… they have no deterrent.
Look forward to Pelosi's visit to Gaza.
We're very transactional. It's in our interests to 'contain China' which is why 'we care' about concentration camps but also most brands/franchises seem unwilling to piss off their biggest asian market; Palestine produces nothing for us. I only see the US position changing any more strongly when there is strong pressure from trading partners, like the EU, Canada, etc.
Gazas best hope would be to suddenly discover they were sitting on the majority share of the world's palladium or something. America will only refresh its position when there is an economic motivation to do so.
I believe Israels terrorist activity in this instance was blowing up a leader in the terrorist organisation Islamic Jihad. Seems legit to me.
Presumably IJ just happened to have all those rockets stockpiled up for Halloween 😂
If they were white Europeans they probably wouldnt be mental jihadis in a region full of mentalism.
Nice work trying to justify the murder of 6 children by the brave IDF.
The Palestinians aren't white enough for Tubridy and Official Ireland....
and there we go..
Theres nothing "mental" about resisting colonialism.
Those in power in Palestine want to eliminate Jews and think Israel should not exist.
This is not comparable to "bombing back to defend ourselves".
Israel could not do anything ever again and the Palestinian's would still bomb them.
It'll be another 6 weeks because the other leaders like Micheal, Ursula, Macron have got their bookings for the tour already
Irish people love to compare the Palestine situation to the Irish because it makes us feel good when the Palestineans praise us. And then the Irish like to think they achieved something great up against the big super power.
But the actual comparison should be if sinn fein wanted to get the brits out of Ireland and then when that happened, continue bombing them and killing them all and the Irish voting for sinn fein on the back of that policy.

Unless I have been asleep for the past 28 years I hadn't realised the brits have got out of Ireland. What the hell are you waffling about....?
Ignoring the facts of the colonising of the area by Israel.
So the Israeli's are allowed bomb indiscriminately and kill fodder according to you?
I would agree with you if the Israeli's went in without guns and weapons and arrested the man but no they didn't they went about it like terrorists which is what they are and if you cannot see that then I feel sorry for you as you are obviously not a rational man.
Just to highlight why Israel are terrorist's. Look up the definition.
A person or organisation(IDF) that uses violence in the pursuit of political aims.
Also I know I am ranting on post after post but look up how many civilians Israel killed compared to these so called terrorists in Palestine. The number is massively one way.
How anyone could defend Israel is beyond me... well I do know why - it's one of those boxes they feel they must tick for optics.
What colonialism is that?
Iran is mental, Syria is mental, Lebanon is mental. They're not resisting anything.
One way 😂
How many unguided rockets have the Palestinians fired into Israel in this latest spat, 600 plus now?
Apparently it's a humanitarian disaster that the Israelis are able to defend themselves from unguided rockets. 😂
Islamic Jihad are terrorists, if you're not sure you can check with the Government or the EU or the UN and so forth
You are aware of the israeli occupation of the west bank, arab east jerusalem etc?
https://www.btselem.org/duty_to_end_occupation
I've a good working knowledge of Israels history thanks, don't need your links. So was the West bank under Jordanian occupation until the Jordanians gave up their rights to the territory a few decades ago? If not, why not?
Russia is just copy and pasting what Israel have been doing for decades....the Ukrainians have a long road ahead of them....
There is a massive difference though. Ukraine got massive help and the best of weaponry while the Palestinians have to make do with home made rockets.
Yea but if you look at the bigger picture which you obviously are not. Israel struck first and bombed and killed civilians they done the only thing they can which is fire back home made rockets.
From what I recall Israel struck first and killed some senior terrorists while poor old IJ have had to fire hundreds of unguided rockets they just had laying around because those pesky walls prevent them from sending suicide bombers into Israel. Real sad story that big picture
I do not know what your problem is and you and your like are the real problems in this world. So the guy was a leader so it is ok for Israel to bomb indiscriminately to gain their way. Israel are terrorists plain and simple and you cannot get that into your tiny little brain.
Just to add say you lived in Gaza what would you do if this terrorist state had you blockaded your whole life. Killed many of your people bombed it many many times over the years. I'm just trying to paint this picture that you are obviously blinded by this and some how think Israel are saints.
They took IJs leadership out with indiscriminate bombing? That must have been some stroke of luck 😂 Sounds more like it was very discriminate
If I was a Palestinian I might ask myself if it might not be a good idea to recognise Israels right to exist seems as how the Jordanians want nothing to do with us, won't take us in and our project to destory Israel and replace it with an Islamic State isnt going too well...but Palestinians dont seem to be too quick on the uptake.
