Israel are going to start WWIII

It's weird here in Germany. I've deliberately avoided talking to most people about it. However i did talk to two german coworkers and they were pissed off about the german governments response. They feel that whats happening is wrong but the government has to support israel because of the nazis.

Is that Piers Morgan posting on here?

It’s very easy to see who controls the narrative and has the power by reference to what happens when you criticise them. The tentacles stretch across Europe and the US given that valid criticism is being suppressed on both sides of the Atlantic. This is not because the criticism is wrong but because Israeli sympathisers/influencers penetrate deep into the corridors of power.

Kind of like the chicken and egg question; is this influence necessary because of anti-semetism or did anti-semetism rise because of this nefariousinfluence?

And what of the actions of Hamas last October? Killing and taking hostage of a number of Israelis, knowing full well what the retaliation would be… Had that not happened, Iran and Hezbollah wouldn't be getting involved now

I think without any of the 5 major nuclear countries involved (and if they did it would likely all be in support of Israel) this is unlikely to descend into a world war

The aggression started after the October 7th attack though. Hamas instigated the attack, not ordinary Palestine citizens. I think it's important to make that distinction

Yes, Germany can't have much meaningful input on this.

The country who should have (or has) the responsibility of leading the way in getting tough on Israel should be a country which has:

• public support domestically for tougher action on Israel, and
• have some amount of sway with the US, and be on-side with them already.

Ideally, they would also be part of one or more powerful international orgs already, to be able to get other member countries on-board with this action also.

Countries meeting both of those criteria are surely uniquely responsible to take action, because other countries can't, if they don't meet one of them.

The level of absolute genocidal savagery that the Israelis are currently engaging in started on October 7th.

But they were frequently kidnapping and murdering Palestinian civilians long before October 7th, in addition to stealing their land, bulldozing their homes, and oppressing them in just about every way imaginable.

Hamas was born out of this and was originally founded by ordinary Palestinians who had seen their friends and family butchered, so while they don't represent all Palestinians obviously they're also not some alien entity that exists in a vacuum.

It's interesting how nobody in Germany seems to get labelled as Islamophobic for their strong support for Israel and for the bombing of Gaza and Lebanon. But anyone who goes against the pro-Israel narrative is immediately depicted as a troublemaker, an anti-Semite and a terrorist sympathiser.

Israeli barbarism continues today

“Regarding these 10 cases, he said that appropriate measures will be taken in due course, in conformity with UNRWA Regulations and Rules.

With respect to the remaining nine cases, the evidence obtained by OIOS indicated that the UNRWA staff members may have been involved in the 7 October attacks. 

UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini issued a statement acknowledging the completion of the probe.

“I have decided that in the case of these remaining nine staff members, they cannot work for UNRWA. All contracts of these staff members will be terminated in the interest of the Agency,” he said.”
