Israel/Palestine Thread

So it's everyone else's fault except Israel. Given you take issue with propaganda it's strange that you're posting IDF propaganda to refute reality. Well, I say strange but with you and the rest of them it's par for the course.

I'm providing you with information that some Aid Agencies, including the UN, have had their noses put out of joint by having their distribution operations usurped by the GHF, and that rather than fulfill their mandate to distribute aid to hungry people would prefer to engage in a p***ing contest the with the Israeli's over distribution territorial rights.

You should be enraged by this, but the usual maxim, 'NO Jews, NO News', as ever, dictates your response.

Ah yes! The accusation of "The accusation of anti-Semitism" casually thrown about because you lack the ability to absorb information contary to your one sided perspective that the Jews may not actually be the bad guys.

The Journalist, far more informed than you, provided a version of reality you simply cannot handle, so you choose, as always, to simply ignore it.

Well, you are the one who actually accused me of anti-Semitism, twice now. As usual with you lot, you are nowhere near as clever as you think you are. Continue on either trolling or reveling in the deaths of Palestinians, it's clearly pointless engaging with you whichever is motivating you.

I was going to suggest that the poster goes back through my 23 years of posts and point to a single anti-Semitic remark I have made (spoiler: never, I've literally called out anti-Semites over the years) but no doubt they will dig up something I posted about something being good value in Aldi and suggest I was motivated by anti-Semitism to post it. For people who claim to take issue with anti-Semitism, they are doing a good job of devaluing the term by throwing it around like confetti. But no doubt, that's just me being anti-Semitic.

The so called 'Live Aid' famine was by far and away the biggest (over 1m deaths).

You were referring to the much more recent Tigray famine, but that happened within the context of a civil war (not comparable to Gaza at all) - not much outside countries and forces can do when two rival factions within a country decide to go to war with each other, even when war crimes are being committed.

Are you for real?

More appropriately, perhaps, you could form a support club, "We all support Hamas, but have difficulty expressing it in public".

You could call yourselves 'The Hamas Dog-whistlers association'.

Nothing to do with us, it is Hamas.

If someone denies the Holocaust took place Jews take umbrage. Fairly so. However many Jews are denying their is a genocide in Gaza. Yet the unholy triad of Ben Ghvir, Smodrich and Netanyahu are seeking to clear Gaza of Palestinians through killing and starvation. We have the British Jewish author Tom Bower taking umbrage at the use of the word genocide. He was having a discussion with another English born Jewish podcaster. Bower is a well regarded author and highly intelligent. It's simply extraordinary he cannot bring himself to acknowledge what is happening.

Thankfully the world sees what is happening and is reacting. The refusal to let the Israeli cruiseship dock in Syros is a prime example of people showing their outrage. I don't know if some Israeli's have brass necks, are in denial or are so convinced they are the chosen people that the death of Palestinians is inconsequential. I can't figure it out.

The only mercy is that Israel has put it's own neck in the noose by her actions. It is unlikely to exist in 20 years time. It's people should they stay will be assimilated into a greater Palestine if the Palestinians will allow them considering the genocide.

Not true : Israel are the colonial occupying power and Palestine (including Gaza) is living under their authority and rule.

That is not comparable to a civil war situation. Palestinians are looking for independence and autonomy for their own region only, not to take over Israel and install a Palestinian government in Tel Aviv.
