Israel are going to start WWIII

I haven't said anything about that issue (it's terrible and I condemn it BTW) but that hasn't stopped you making assumptions and statements on my beliefs.

The gracious thing to do would be to apologise.

A good start, well done.

You suggested that I'm an antisemite and now you're asking for an apology. Good man, you've some neck.

Yes and even if they were chanting 'gas the jews', they were obviously referring to laughing gas. It was just a suggestion to resolve the conflict by making everyone stoned and happy.

Honestly, the lengths some people on here go to to deny the rampant anti semitism on display at these marches is ridiculous.

I never suggested you were anything.

I merely asked you to rationalise why shouting "fvck the jews" should be seen as acceptable.

You're the one making assumptions, and you say I've got some neck?

after bombing yemen this evening biden says he would look for alternatives to bombing iran's facilities if he were in their place.....

this is not going down well at all in israel

must be some serious discussions going on behind the scenes ...

What are our government going to do if our UN peacekeepers come under fire?

What usually happens is that they are replaced with someone even more ruthless who has to prove himself. Be careful what you wish for.

So you will flat-out refuse to offer any opinion on what will happen if/when Iran get a Nuke.

Fascinating…

And here you were predicting the outcome of the current conflict and what would/would not happen if Israel/US go after Iran's Nuclear facilities.

It's not for you to decide when anyone stops posting.

The fact check you're talking about stated that the group actually said something else which was also antagonistic towards Jewish people, which doesn't disprove the accusation of antisemitism, the fact that the same group were recorded shouting "fvck the jews" has been roundly ignored as well.

In saying this I'm supposedly acting as some sort of apologist for the state of Israel, I was arguing the point that Israel was overstepping the mark in Palestine years before the majority of people on this thread even had an opinion on it(or at least expressed it in boards) so I don't need to prove my credentials to anyone on that score.

I always dispised the accusations of being an antisemite for expressing those opinions so it really Fvcking pisses me off to see far left wingnuts not even bothering to conceal their contempt for Jewish people simply because it's now acceptable due to Israel's behaviour since the October 7th attacks.

Here's a newsflash for you, Israel is acting horribly and Hamas have been also acting horribly. I'm not picking a side just because it's now the thing to do. I don't want to see Palestinian children being killed, nor do I want to see Hamas butchering and raping Israelis.

Hamas knew the response would be catastrophic from Israel yet they chose to launch their attack last October regardless, neither players here are to be admired.

The outside world needs to be looking to broker peace not pick sides and treat this serious humanitarian situation like some twisted sports event.

If Iran gets a nuke, israel will probably stop its otherwise unending attempts to provoke a war with Iran. At least openly. So Iran getting nukes is probably a good thing for regional peace and stability.

Though who knows, we are dealing with religious zealots who believe their god has promised them dominion over the earth. The israelis I mean.

Iran has shown incredible, near super-human levels of restraint to resist israeli provocations. I certainly think we can have more trust in Iran to be reasonable than israel when its israel that has been sponsoring terrorist groups in Iran, bombing Iranian embassies and assassinating Iranian figures and bombing Iran itself. Iran has by comparison been incredibly determined to avoid war. That is a bad look for israel to be seen as more aggressive and crazed than a regime led by mullahs, but that is something for israelis to ponder.

As it stands, the israeli/US press has constantly been printing stories for at least the last 20 years saying Iran is just weeks or months away from building nukes. For 20 years. By all logic, Iran has nukes already, undeclared, and it isn't firing them.

The Iranians don't need nukes to inflict terrible destruction on israel anyway. The recent missile strike by Iran involved roughly 200 missiles and it overwhelmed israeli defences. The US estimated 2 years ago that Iran had over 3,000 ballistic missiles. 2 years ago - they have more now.

israel is just the type of country that is constantly attacking all its neighbours (currently attacking Gaza, Lebanon, Yemen, Syria and Iran) while crying everyone hates them. The lack of self-awareness is almost impressive.

The terrorist state in action

An out of control murderous rabble.
