    Why don't you **** off over and negotiate for the hostages you pretend to care about?

    Oh are you actually looking for an answer and not trying to make an edgy statement about your country (I assume it is your country) helping somebody in need, who must have been living in hell for the last few years? You must really hate your fellow Irish (again assuming you are), the largest per capita contributers to charity in the world. Many of us like to do our bit.

    But back to your question - I couldn't possibly answer that for you. You should write a letter to the HSE and to other health authorities in the MENA region. Let me know what you find out.

    Surprised you knew the ball existed SeanW, with your frequent "da Joos" default answer to valid criticisms of your posts

    Maybe Blanch is another neutral?? Neutral in favour of Israel and their criminal behaviour/

    Maybe you could give us your opinion on the shooting and bombing of starving people queueing for food?. 800 dead in the last 6 weeks. Do you believe it is justified ?

    So @RoyalCelt sent me a PM with a very strange anecdote that didn't really make any sense. He has absolutely nothing to back up his "Ireland is anti-semitic" statement. Zero.

    What are they doing in the Hyacinth House?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,416 ✭✭✭✭My name is URL


    Post his diatribe here. I think mods are allowing a bit more atm.

    Nice of him or her to ask for a PM all the same. Reaching out to others is always good

    Those who support Israel are morally bankrupt and can offer no real defence of it except throw out the ol antisemite trope. It no longer washes. The world sees Israel for the racist, apartheid genocidal state that it is. It's devotees are blind to her sins. Take Alan Shatter for example.

    As a lawyer he knows Genocide is illegal. He knows settlements by one nation on the territory of another is illegal. He knows that Palestinians and even Arab Jews are not treated like Ashkenazi Jews hence the apartheid nature of the state. Apartheid is illegal. He has intellectual capacity to know all this and still backs Israel to the hilt. It irks me to think my taxes are helping to fund his ministerial pension when he doesn't condemn genocide. He is a b*stard of the highest calibre.

    According to a channel 4 news report this evening while Gaza is being starved to death the settler thieves in the West Bank are forcing Palestinian residents from their homes and lands. The thieves claim their ‘Jewishness’ entitles them to just swoop into an area and expel its inhabitants.

    Israel has surely become a feral state with assistance from the United States which is fast becoming feral (alligator Alcatraz ) and from where many of the ‘settlers’ originate.

    Who or what will end this carnage?

    Someone will be along shortly to tell you how democratic Israel is……..

    Hopefully Bibi will be stupid enough to attack Iran again. If he does then Israel will be flattened and the carnage against the Palestinians will end. Either way Israel is nearing it's end as a state. Their will be a free Palestinian state from the river to the sea in the next 10-20 years.

    When i see the word ' antisemitic ' being bandied about I know that someone is sore and is losing the debate. I also believe that those backing Israel and their genocide have lost any semblance of humanity they had, if they had any to start with.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,572 ✭✭✭SeanW


    So at least some here are wishing for Israel - the world's only Jewish state and home to almost half of the world's Jewish people - to be "flattened" and are salivating at the prospect of it being ended completely and Palestine being freed "From the River to the Sea" …

    Gotcha.

    I know you won't answer the question but are you ok with innocent Palestinians being killed on a daily basis? Do you think any of them are innocent, or do you just not care because they're Arabs?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 784 ✭✭✭batman75


    A free Palestine from the river to the sea is the only answer. The world gave the Jews a homeland in 1948 and they have abused that goodwill ever since. Israel must be removed from the maps and a state called Palestine where Jews and Palestinians will live as equal before the law.

    Israeli Jews are hated around the world for not opposing genocide. Israel's end will have been self inflicted and it will come to an end. It is a failed colonial settler project. A project that could never succeed when it required land to be taken from the natives to create it. Zionism is a poisonous ideology just like Nazism. The world does not tolerate the later and soon the former will also be not accepted.

    Trump's generation are probably the last in America to be pro Israel. Younger generations can see Israel for the malign influence that it is in the Middle East. The state of Israel cannot be dissolved quick enough.

    As have continued to ignore the question of Israel stealing Palestinian land for decades how do you feel about Bibi holding up a map of Israel and it showing it from ' the river to the sea '? I'd like a reply.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 798 ✭✭✭Fuascailteoir


    You must have been absolutely horrified when Israel executed three of the hostages in cold blood



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 54,745 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    There are so many similarities between Nazism and Zionism. Both detestable.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 784 ✭✭✭batman75


    You would think that a race that had been subjected to a holocaust would have the required empathy and humanity not to impose such hatred on another race of people ie the Palestinians. However Jewish society seems every bit as genocidal as those committing the genocide. Surely that is the biggest insult to those who perished in the Holocaust. I've been to the Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem. It's fantastically well done and moving. But then it leaves you wondering how in god's name can the Jews be so inhumane to the Palestinians? Beggars belief.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,291 ✭✭✭✭blanch152


    Why attack me rather than answer the question?

    Do you condemn the war crime committed by Hamas today by not releasing the hostages?

    I think Blanch might have been told to stop engaging now

    I'm amazed anyone can even deny that Israel is a colonial-settler-apartheid project. If you were to list 30 traits of a typical apartheid state, Israel would tick every single box.

    Many people are probably shocked at the way Shatter has thrown his cloak off in the last two years. He's not even trying to hide being a far right Zionist extremist - he would easily slot into Netanyahu's cabinet.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 54,745 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    They have demeaned the effects of the Holocaust. You cannot highlight one and play down the other. Life doesn't work like that.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 59,097 ✭✭✭✭walshb


    why are you wishing for a country’s annihilation? Isn’t this exactly why Israel are on the offensive so much? This annihilation agenda from Palestinians



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 54,745 ✭✭✭✭tayto lover


    Only one country annihilating as you are well aware. 800 starving people queueing for food in the last few weeks murdered by snipers and tank fire.

    Yeah, all the disabled kids left to fight are well up for it

    Prominent Israeli commentators like Ilan Pappe, Miko Peled and Gideon Levy have all said that Israel needs to cease to exist which is something I believe in also. Do I wish for Israel's annihilation. I think that a military annihilation might be required to stop the genocide. The country needs to be pummelled until it's society can no longer function. We are dealing with a maniacal genocide regime.

    I presume you oppose the genocide. I presume you don't like to hear of a hundred defenceless Palestinians being slaughtered day after day. Israel has sought since it's inception to rid the land of Palestinians either through displacement or simple murder.

    It took the dropping of an atomic bomb to get Japan to surrender. I fear that Israel will need to be hammered militarily to stop the genocide in Gaza. Iran was well on the way to dismantling Israel military capability when a ceasefire was announced. They clearly weakened Israel as we can see from the upsurge in Gaza in the death of IDF soldiers.

    It's offensive that it exists on land stolen from the Palestinian people. You could argue as Israel exists it has the right to self defence. Genocide can never be seen as self defence. Any state committing genocide puts it's very existence in peril and rightfully so. If it had taken targeted action against Hamas not many would have had a problem with that. They can do it they showed that in Iran on the first night of the war.

    Speaking of answering questions - you described Israel as a democracy. Do Palestinians in the West Bank, Arab East Jerusalem and the Golan get a vote? This is the third time I've asked you.

    I'm still waiting for a mod to bring Blanch to account for the defamation that she brought against me in this thread. I'm amazed she is still allowed to post on this thread. I would ask fellow posters not to reply to her posts.
