Israel/Palestine Thread

And dont allow any journalists in either …

Trump’s support of Tony Blair to run a proposed Gaza International Transitional Authority (Gita) - which will eventually hand over to Palestinian Authority is absurd.

Is Blair going to run Trump’s casino and golf course in Gaza. Blair can’t be trusted.

It’s linked to Trump, and Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner (a former Middle East envoy). Anything that comes out of that crowd is poison. ⬇️

‘What is Tony Blair’s plan for Gaza and will it work?’
‘The former British PM is said to be offering to lead any interim government in Gaza for up to five years, but the proposal has yet to be shared with regional actors and may not be accepted by Israel, writes Bel Trew’

“Gita would be established via a UN Security Council resolution and would be governed by a board of 7–10 members, including at least one qualified Palestinian, a senior UN official, international figures with financial experience, as well as “strong representation of Muslim members”. Sir Tony is understood to have offered to lead this consortium.

“Previous reporting had linked his initiative to the forcible displacement of Palestinians from Gaza, leaving the enclave open for international property development.

^ One qualified Palestinian, what does that say? The people who wrote this nonsense are actually laughing at anyone who takes it seriously.

It’s not the first time Tony Blair has been humiliated by the Americans. He seems to have an appetite for it.

I enjoyed reading one of the comments at end of article on someone feeling there's ‘a need to finish the discussion about where Blair’s vision for a post-war Afghanistan ended up’.

Agreed. That's kind of what I was trying to say. It's not comparable to the Holocaust but then again very few genocides in history are. Gaza is definitely comparable to the Warsaw Ghetto and what the Nazis did there.

I was trying to make a point about the language being used. I'm weird like that. It's how my brain works. When someone uses overly emotive language to argue a point, it causes me to ignore the point they're trying to make and focus on the language they're using.

Yes, two years into the War on Gaza the Israelis have killed more in their genocide than the Nazis had two years into theirs.
Excellent point SeanW.
If the Israelis are allowed to drive the people of Gaza out to a “camp of concentration” they may reach the levels of killing of their erstwhile tormentors.
Have you defended previous genocides or is this your first one? If so, what do you find particularly agreeable about this genocide?

We don’t know the Gaza death toll yet. You may not be disappointed.

The Americans arrest Netenyahu and hand him over to the ICC.

That's how you hope it will end . Not how it will end .unfortunately

This is disgusting.

What happens to Netanyahu when the war ends?

Conviction for corruption.

Investigation into October 7th including Hannibal directive.

Will Netenyahu become a kapporat for all Israeli sins?

I can never see this happening….Its the only logical answer but itl never never truly happen….so what else can be done?Stopping the ongoing holocaust that Israel are causing first would ne nice……….That lapdog Blair defo doesn't have he answer's ffs anyway

Hard to see how Palestinians will view having to live beside Israel as being acceptable after what has transpired over the last two years. The history of colonialism, dispossession and oppression aside, the current level of slaughter has left the prospect of a two state solution in the dust. Israel is fast becoming an outcast globally and might disappear as a settler colonial state altogether

Any other nation on the planet doing what Israel is doing and talking about what it wants to do with other people's land would have been booted out of every international competition and had sanctions placed upon them long before now.

No action will be taken. The UK has effectively told their citizens on the flotilla they are on their own and that if they are harmed it's their own fault. Now imagine if we substituted Israel for any other nations, would the UK issue such a statement to its citizens or would they warn the country involved that if any harm came to their citizens of severe consequences ?

There is no red line Israel can cross that would cause Nato to take action against it- even if a Nato member country had their warship sunk by Israel while protecting the flotilla. The incident would be spun by their main ally and apologists on here as an act of self defense . Again if any other non Nato member did that it would trigger article 5.
