    The only one who is dominated completely by hatred and racism is you fella and people like you. If you believe even half of what you write then are a hopelessly misguided fool.

    It's just turned into "ISRAEL, F*CK YEAH!" at this point. Hopefully he's a teenager and he'll grow up a bit and feel bad for dancing in glee over almost 200 people killed in a week.

    So you are doing what any other uninformed, uneducated casual observer of this conflict does - put Israelis (which also include 25% Arabs) and all other Jews of the world into one homogeneous group.

    I have a third level degree you clown,once again casting assumptions just like all palestinians are and support hamas.I provided you with countless websites that show the global growing hatred for ISrael and its policies yet you want me to name one journalist???

    Do you support Israels right to expel people and keep them expelled from theirland by brutality and murder.

    Is self defence murdering 200 people and 80% civilians with 40 children among the dead.In total over 7000 palestinians dead.Is that self defence?Sounds like blatant genocide to me

    The first question isn't a legitimate question. The second question doesn't make sense - do death tolls need to be 50/50? Israel protects its people with Iron Dome; Hamas protects its weapons by using its people. Lastly, genocide is the indiscriminate wiping out of a population. It's an actual term, not just something you can use as a slogan. The only indiscriminate attacks are the useless rockets Hamas fires into Israel.

    Here's a question for you: do you think Hamas should stop firing the rockets? Egypt has proposed a truce, Israel has accepted it, and Hamas has no strategic or firepower edge. Why not take the truce and end the current crisis?

    I don't want you to name names, just provide credible sources.

    Going by your thread title, your ill-informed posts and your aggressive tone, you seem to be the kind of guy who types first, thinks later. Saying Hamas were now stronger than ever was the last straw, I've lost all interest in debating with you.

    Azwaldo55 won't be joining in for a while.

    For the rest of you, more bans and infractions will follow as we try and clean up the thread. As for the thread itself, whether it's locked or not is up to whether or not the level of abuse (and racism) can drop considerable. Even if that happens the thread may not be salvageable, as it's an emotive topic and generally results in closed threads.

    It is discriminate as it targets particular groupings and kills them all, a bit like ethnic clensing but without the overwriting of the race, in Genocide they are just killed. Genocide is the systematic destruction of all or part of a racial, ethnic, religious or national group etc.

    Fine-go way then,you have added nothing to this whole thread but to request back up which is widely prevalent and you DID ask me to name a journalist in a previous post

    Apologies, got that mixed up, obviously it's discriminate. I think it's fairly obvious that IDF's targets are Hamas-related. The civilian deaths - which are tragic by the way, I'm not a monster - are a terrible consequence of Hamas's tactics of deliberately firing from or storing weapons in hospitals, schools etc. Also, there are numerous examples online of what can happen when IDF launches a 'knock-on-the-door' mortar to warn building occupants to leave; Hamas supporters run into the building en masse to act as human shields.

    I must have been asleep when this became an established fact as opposed to a claim by the IDF.

    It is indiscriminate. They know they will kill civilians, they know they wont stop the rockets, all they are trying to do is frighten the population through murder.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,252 ✭✭✭FTA69


    People running into buildings to be blown up? Any Palestinians I knew out there did their very best to run away from the IDF. Most of them aren't foolish enough either to believe that the Israelis could give a sh*t about civilian casualties in Gaza of all places.

    Pure codswallop.

    Similarly there were no rockets fired from the beach bar they flattened on the beach last week, nor were there launch pads at the hospital for disabled women they bombed. Likewise the "Hamas targets" often include the homes of police officers and administrative government centres.

    Yeh, like a bunch of people watching the world cup.

    "Genocide" and "ethnic cleansing" don't just appear as murderous activity. There are constant efforts by Israel to demolish the traces of Palestinian life, religion and culture. Into the bargain, they build settlements on illegally occupied land, in an effort to replace that culture with a Jewish one, until one day, all traces of the Palestinians are reduced to a memory for those who won't want to forget.

    In the context of Genocide.

    Indiscriminate acts includes the carpet bombing of Vietnam, the Fire Bombings of Dresden, the Nuclear bombings of Japanese cities.

    These are indiscriminate as they kill all sides.

    Literally people climbing onto buildings in this clip: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VTArVIHDelg
    You'll disregard it obviously but I'd rather you watch. There are numerous examples of this.

    It's footage, but what of and in what circumstances? Not nessecarily the one presented. They're an occupying army, ffs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,252 ✭✭✭FTA69


    Is this the same IDF that said the young American boy they beat half to death two weeks ago attacked three soldiers with a knife?

    Considering the number of Palestinians killed has run into the thousands, with the vast majority of them being civilians, lectures about how the Israeli military are keen to avoid killing civilians are a bit hollow to be honest.

    What measures, if any, does Hamas take to limit civilian casualties in Israel? Just asking because obviously we should be holding both sides to the same moral standard, right?

    Another question. What measures does Hamas take to limit its own civilian casualties? There's not a single bomb shelter in Gaza.

    Im typing on an iphone and couldnt be bothered re-tracing each word.

    So,are you going to back up your claim that I'm a liar or are you a faceless keyboard warrior who trolls looking for a response?

    Do you think the Palestinian authority(PA) has teh funds to buy Bomb protected bunkers.You seem to have trouble distinguising palestinians from Hamas.Have you seen teh reports when ordinary palestinians say they dont want anythign to do with Hamas??You just assume palestinians=Hamas and that all palestinians are muslim fanatics when there are CHristians in palestine also,who are also treated like dirt.

    I think someone who calls other posters clowns because they have a different opinion than them can also be classed as a "faceless keyboard warrior"!

    That's a crazy assumption. I live in the Middle East, I know Palestinians. I have plenty of compassion for Palestinians and I think it's a tragedy that those in Gaza have to live under Hamas, which uses its resources to put their lives in danger through $1000 missiles that invite retaliation on the populace.

    Hamas can do very little in the face of one of the best equipped armies in the world who have free reign to target a people contained and hemmed into one of the most densely populated places in the world.

    Similarly very little gets constructed in Gaza because the Israelis prevent cement from being imported via their illegal blockade. One of the main things the flotilla was carrying was cement but obviously the Israelis put paid to that when they massacred unarmed sailors.
