Israel/Palestine Thread

Apart from the small difference of Ukrainians never attacking Russia, even voluntarily surrender their nukes in the 90's, and doing everything to keep the peace since then, yes, totally identical situations. Ffs.

Do you remember IRA terrorists living in the RoI bombing England? That's the same as Terrorists living in Lebanon attacking Israel.

The brown three-year olds being blown to bits can't have more than 3 years history of attacking Israel though. They are mainly Muslims, not Buddhists, and so can't be accused of attacking Israel in a former life.

It really is amazing the cognitive dissonance that is seen on here every day. Russia does something and posters will easily agree they are wrong. Israel does the same thing and it's "nothing to see here. So what about those beheaded babies and rapes back a few months ago. There has been about 10 whole posts on thread since we last tried to deflect to them..what's that you say? Well hold on, you haven't organised a march to protest to Mongolia about Genghis Khan so that proves you are antisemitic".

Yeah, that woman waving a flag was a "mortal enemy" 🙄🤡

About a decade ago, Russia sent their little green men into Eastern Ukraine. They also annexed Crimea. From then until February 2022, there was continuous (mainly, but not exclusively) low-level engagement between Ukrainian army and Russian forces - proxy or otherwise. Russia says it was worried about the escalation of such attacks and sent their tanks across the border. They bombed civilian buildings such as theatres and butchered civilians in places like Bucha.

The Israelis have been stealing Palestinian land for decades. In response to an attack from a group they helped build up within Gaza, Israel have now invaded the small bit that the Palestinians are crammed into. They bombed civilian buildings such as apartment blocks and hospitals and have butchered civilians all across the territory.

The population of Ukraine is more than 20 times the population of Gaza. Pro-rated, that would equate to about 2 million kids being killed by Russians in Ukraine.

But, expert at playing the victim card, the zionists try to gaslight people into manufacturing themselves as analagous to Ukraine. It's laughable really. Ukraine was, and remains, more of a "threat" to Russia than Hamas were to Israel.

Surgical strikes against terrorist leaders not good now?

No, it's closer (but not identical) to the Hamas attack, because even though Hezbollah are not the actual government, they do have significant political power in Lebanon, where they are considered as "a state within a state" https://www.cfr.org/backgrounder/what-hezbollah

There really is no equivalent in Irish politics, despite the determination of many posters on here to draw this sort of false equivalence.

Well SeanW, if it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, and walks like a duck, then it is a duck.

Or maybe you have a genuine reason why you can't tell us the secret justification why you don't care about the Palestinian kids as much you would as any other types of kids who would be getting murdered under the same circumstances. I don't think "trust me bro" is really good enough.

And it can't be that you haven't had time to make any posts..........You appear to be pretty much full-time posting on the thread.

I'm sure you have multiple examples of the IRA launching rockets into Northern Ireland (never mind English😁) towns then? I must have missed all those bunkers we had to run to when the missile alarms sounded when I was a kid in Northern Ireland. I can't remember a single one. Nor the obligatory "safe rooms" in all our homes, for the same reason.

Jeez, some people on here are CLUELESS.
