It seems like a Jewish right wing are determined to start a Middle East war and WWIII . Israel is the equivalent of a Fascist state and it’s time to call them out as such .
Aragh FFS. What is the point...
Yeah yeah dead right.
Well I can see why you don't want to consider the comparison, but it's actually very close.
I just remembered this cracking Boiler Room set by a Palestinian woman in Ramallah.
"Oh they'd kill you for being a liberal westerner" or some other shite that gets run out here fairly often.
People need to go touch grass and wobble their heads a bit if they really think the Palestinians are some sort of barbaric nation who kill anyone remotely less conservative than them.
There was a reason for the Geneva convention after WWII. We have been over this several times. More evasion.
Very little posting in good faith here.
While wikipedia can be a good 'go-to', you need to read the words that are written, not what you want them to say.
The article does not tell you what form of assistance it takes. I have given you their mandate wording. It is not inconsistent with your wikipedia article, the issue is that you consider only what you want your own narrow interpretation to be.
For example, if it says that 'X's role is to help 'Y', then there are a number of ways that 'X' can achieve that. If you decide that that has to mean that 'X' will kill all of 'Y's enemies then that is your mistake.

Attacking Catholic churches now in Lebanon. It is clear as day that Israel is destroying the whole fabric of life in Lebanon

Russia Is Being Drawn Deeper Into the Middle East Conflict
another factor playing on US/Israel response to iranian ballistic missile attacks
A steady flow of Russian weapons to Tehran could change the balance of power in the region, potentially triggering a response from the United States and Israel.

Sure we already had them sniping two women dead at a Catholic church in Gaza.
Plenty of footage of Christians in general being spat at on the streets of cities in Israel…..going on for years and apparently justified as some kind of 'tradition' by posters on here if I remember correctly
They really are ramping up the hasbara to get support from useful idiots scared of their own shadows in the West.
It's "hasbara" that Russia is exchanging weapons with Iran and its other allies? What has Iran been getting for all the Shaheed drones that have been launched into Ukraine?
Sure if they are "exchanging" weapons then why the fretting. Iran will be reducing their own stockpiles of that they give in return.
Gotta have a bogeyman though. To justify the murdering. Sooner or later the constant "othering" of one population will become tiresome. Better to keep switching between them.
By "exchanging" I mean that Iran has been supplying Russia with massive amounts of Shaheed drones to attack Ukraine, and many more are made in Russia to Iranian specifications. Of course, I'd have to be a total hasbara shill to wonder what Russia is giving Iran in exchange for all these goodies … 😏
Ok who are hasbara?
The Geneva Convention doesn't ban all attacks that may lead to civilian deaths though. It does ban attacks such as the Oct 7th Hamas one, though. But you don't see the "ceasefire now" protesters in the west ever calling for Hamas to return the hostages.
Right, that's why Israel just gave Ukraine an early warning system to help protect Ukrainian civilians from Russian missiles. Because Netanyahu is such a good ally of Putin.

That's this Sama Abdullah, right?
For her newest video project, Palestinian officials permitted Ms. Abdulhadi to film a performance at Nabi Musa, a remote cultural complex attached to a mosque in a desert area east of Jerusalem that some believe was built where Moses was buried. Several hours into the filming her set was stormed by religious Palestinians, furious at what they saw as an attack on Islam.
They distributed footage of the event, raising a media storm. Palestinian leaders condemned Ms. Abdulhadi and the police detained her for more than a week. She was released on bail but remains under investigation and cannot travel.
That's from 2021. Your clip was posted in 2018, I don't know if it dates from earlier than that or not. But below it is a comment from Sama Abdullah herself, dating from 2 years ago:
10 million views later... this is crazy... much love to all the support, thank you for everyone that watched this <3 its so surreal to watch it again and see all my friends faces dancing. I miss home
So it doesn't look like the electronic music scene in Ramallah is doing all that well.
He did issue an oral fatwa in 2003 and restated his position in 2015.
He said in recent times they might pursue one, but that is not the same thing as saying that they are pursuing one. Has he actually renounced the oral fatwa, I don't think so.
Some officials have also threatened to acquire one if Iran are backed into a corner.
With this in mind given the threats against them and the killing of their military personnel and scientists over the years it would from their perspective be the logical thing to do to try and provide a deterrence to the likes of Bibi who is now seemingly hell bent on a wider war. Unless you believe Israel is the only one entitled to defend itself from agression.
Israel bombed an arms depot at the Russian Khmeimim base - sources (bulgarianmilitary.com)
So … Russia makes massive weapons deals with Iran, Israel bombs a Russian airbase in Syria and provides an early warning system to Ukraine, but I'm expected to believe that Netanyahu and Putin are the best of buddies? If they were friendly in the past, I'd say that relationship is getting strained.
As for "cosying up" that's basically what Western Europe was doing to Russia for gas and oil supplies prior to 2022.
They are. If they respond then they technically become combatants, so as you say the IDF then has the excuse to hit them harder. It's disgraceful there are posters who still cannot condemn the IDF deliberately attacking the UNFIl positions. They'll still believe the IDF lies over the Irish Defense forces chief of staff.
As a matter of curiosity, why do you feel Irish jews "have skin in the game"?
I read today the latest plan is for Israel to starve Hamas out of gaza. The problem is to do this they will also have starve the innocent civilians women and children in gaza their soldiers are busy invading Lebanon so it makes a grim twisted kind of sense to block food and aid supplys into gaza
At this point it seems the IDF,s. Theory is what fresh hell can we inflict on innocent civilians in order to cause maximum chaos and carnage
I like to see a tv program with a Christian and Rabbi from America debating is the behavior of the IDF and the slaughter of civiliians in any justified by Jewish religion in order to protect the Jewish state which also has some citizens who are Arabs and Christians
they are just dragging israels reputation through the mud
I'd agree with you only it's quite some time since Israel had a reputation worth considering.
In recent times they have used what are essentially the same excuses to attack Gaza, the West Bank, the Lebanon, Syria, Iran - and now the United Nations. Going back further in time, they attacked various other neighbours with similar made up excuses.
Appeasement has been tried again and again, but these nazi spawn just keep on going. A new approach is needed.
That's nonsense. I have seen western leaders calling for the release of hostages many many times over the past year. Netanyahu didn't even try and get the remaining hostages back.
The civilian deaths have been completely disproportionate and indiscriminate and you know it. But they are only muslims...
What does international law say about bombing hospitals (all of them), refugee camps (repeatedly), ambulances, schools (all of them), stopping humanitarian aid, starving the civilian population, shooting reporters etc?
In fairness, Israel has consistently shown that it is against Islam and Muslims. Anti Christian too, although some pro-zionist xtians get a pass for political reasons. Like the way Japanese were classed as white in South Africa under apartheid.
Assuming that's true, so what? Everyone was doing business with Russia prior to 2022. The West had issued some Crimea related sanctions in 2014, but those were weak AF.
I would say that the "thought process" leading to the post you replied to is a tad obscure, if I were in a generous mood.
The poster's username is Russian which is curious in itself - although there are a great many Russians in Israel.
I never got the sense that Israelis were anti Christian but I completely understand why they fear their Muslim neighbours. Religion should never be a reason to kill/maim/hate (for all sides). We know that only too well. I wish we had a world with no religion but mankind love their fairy stories. Hopefully the next few generations will see through the nonsense.
Israel have created the conditions for many future Palestinian terrorists and they will need intense security to stop future atrocities within Israel over the coming decades. Perhaps that is why they are killing/maiming so many children.
