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 .
Nonsense.
Bit of a childish way to see different viewpoints on a situation that is nowhere near as black and white as people make it out to be.
I find it equally mystifying that people seem to genuinely believe that if Israel just stops, unprecedented euphoria will wash over the Middle East and all the other bad faith actors will huge stakes of blame in this will just somehow magically melt away.
It's convenient to point the finger at Israel as the root of all evil in the region but it's not correct. Unless of course you're one of those time travel advocates who feebly suggests it should never have existed in the first place.
Well, that's just great and so unbelievably helpful in 2024, hopefully it's a core pillar of future negotiations to stop the horrific bloodshed and hatred. Once we get that sorted we can go back to the Munich Agreement and tackle Neville Chamberlain.
Not you, Derkaiser93 and Shoog. They're literally justifying the actions of HAMAS on the 7th of October.
Glad to hear you're not a HAMAS supporter at very least.
You still would have joined them if you'd grown up in Gaza though apparently…
I'm not a Hamas supporter but I will say this. Whilst I don't support their religious or social doctrine at all, nor the killings of innocent people anywhere. I find it disturbing that people such as yourself and others on here are more concerned and confused about why a group of oppressed people with basic technology, poor education, people who have lost generations of their family members through murder and poverty, their land siezed, future stolen and rights removed , killed 1000 people. ....and a supposed western democracy, who claim be fighting for good, are a supposed military force not terrorist organisation and with the best education and state of the art precision weaponry , have killed over 40,000 people, destroyed home and stolen land is ignored.
Ok I had a very quick read of some of Shoogs posts. I believe he is saying the Israel created the conditions for Hamas to thrive in Gaza with their treatment of the occupied territory. I believe the UN Sec Gen said exactly that many months ago and said it didn't happen in a vacuum. Gaza was described as an open air prison before the war - economy in freefall, living conditions very poor, very high unemployment, no prospects, very little self determination etc. Do you think the UN Sec Gen had a point?
As was I a supporter once of the Palestinian cause, until I saw that the thin veneer of democracy or rights based societies, or decent civil society was confined to the leadership of groups like PLO and long replaced by local values and beliefs that were anathema to anyone who didn't want a bronze age savagery
I hear u iz a fascist now Danzy. Woz you always in to fabrics and creating.
I find it equally as disturbing at how quickly the likes of yourself want to brush the brutality of October the 7th under the carpet as if it didn't happen and has no impact on where the situation is currently.
I don't agree with mass killing by the way and I don't agree with how Israel have followed up after that event. So don't assume I do.
I do think thought that Israel had to respond. Surely you agree with me there? Whatever your political ideas on the region, from their point of view they had a massive land invasion, which would have to illicit a response, no?
100% agree with all of that. There's no winners/good guys here. You have two groups of people who view themselves as displaced. The best they can aim for is to live beside each other peacefully but there will forever be some sort of agitation from either camp.
I honestly see it as a forever war at this stage. Which is a horrible thing to realise but I can't see any way out of it.
Syria rolling back the Iranian jihad lest Assad finds his own watermelon burst.
I can't either. The mutual hate is stronger than ever now.
The senseless killing has to stop. I don't care how but it has to stop.
Danzy and other posters don't seem too bothered about the death rate.
Or just want a resolution and the aggressor parties stopped.
You really need to look in the mirror when saying that. No point arguing with the willfully ignorant. Good luck.
Mainly you are all over the shop. Spaghetti junction. Seem to like war.
sure kid why not, if your really want a nuclear war in the east and the destruction of the west to happen shortly there after
People never had a chance to properly process or digest the horrific events of October 7th. Netanyahu immediately went on an orgy of revenge and retribution and within a week or so, the main news coming out of the region was the Israeli gearing up for all out war and the attacks on Gaza by the IDF.
Wow, you'd murder and rape innocent people if you lost your house - that's some admission.
Unfortunately it is not going to stop until the Palestinians are totally exterminated, political support for the apartheid state ends or someone steps in to stop it.
It has been so obvious since Day 1 that Israel wants rid of them at any cost, just as obvious that certain countries will support them at any cost so that just leave option 3.
A terrorist is defined as a guy wearing a keffiyeh and holding an ak47 … forget about the guy wearing a suit and holding the launch codes to a nuclear arsenal while flattening a series of countries
What exactly do you think Islamic terror attacks are about? They are motivated by extremist views. The worrying part is that many Muslims support these, they won’t condemn them. Ideological and religiously they agree with them.
Wow … it takes some gall to post vile claptrap like that and then in the same post accuse anyone of being "morally reprehensible."
What is the genetic/ethnic/other difference between Arab Israelis and Palestinians please?
This map has been debunked many times.
Remember, the Zionists accepted the 1947 plan - if what you wanted was a smaller Israel, then, and again before 1967, was the chance for it.
Of course it was never about the size of Israel, but its existence.
Really if you can't see the distinction between Muslims and Muslims terrorists youve got issues.
The fact that you would trivialise the plight of the Palestinians in this way is telling.
You are as much a terrorist as the PLO , IRA , and the ANC . Wait , John Hume won the Nobel peace prize for helping to bring the Troubles to an end where the British government was rightly shown to be an apartheid state
John Hume was a supporter of the IRA was he? You need to get a history book out!
And the previous Nobel Peace Prize winners from NI were two women, Betty Willimas and Mairead Corrigan, protesting mainly at paramilitary violence within their own communities. Their peaceful march to the graves of the three children who'd been killed was attacked by members of the IRA, who accused them of being "dupes of the British".
As for "the British government was rightly shown to be an apartheid state" - in your own mind maybe, but nowhere else. Now if you have said "the Northern Ireland autonomous state pre 1969", you might have a point. But you didn't because you think these things are all more or less equal. Hence your confusion about terrorism and Peace Prizes.
if the price of oil go,s up it effects israel and america aand most western countrys they depend on getting arms and bombs from america and its very close as to will trump or harris become the next american president
If an old fur coat wearing German lady lived next to a ghetto full of Jews or Slavs or whoever while living a comfortable life and ignoring what was happening in 1942 would you be equally upset if some partisans shot her dead?
What a clown response to a valid question.
