Good opinion piece from Peter Hain in todays Guardian

It's been very notable that throughout this thread those who support Israel's actions mostly haven't really brought much in constructive arguments.
We've had people trying to have the thread shut down, constant trolling by emojis and now persistent personal attacks. I know the world is a bit...
I don't know how the situation is resolved, I would hope with negotiation and compromise from all parties. Unfortunately I don't see that coming all the time that Israel is allowed to commit war crime with impunity. Apartheid or ethnic cleansing don't appear to be the options of a country being...
Israel prides itself as a beacon of democracy so why shouldn't it be held to a high standard? Although tbf Tom Hark you were seemingly advocating for ethnic cleansing as an end game so unsure if you believe that Israel is actually ever held to account.
I don't understand your point? We shouldn't comment on Israeli war crimes because Muslims are also killed by other Muslims in other countries? It doesn't make sense.
I think people are rightly outraged by what they're seeing because the response is wildly disproportionate and the mistreatment...
This is a fairly sickening euphemism when amongst the IDF actions have included bombing hospitals, sniping civilians seeking refuge in a church and even killing unarmed escaped Israeli hostages who were unclothed from the waist up and waving white flags!
Farage is a notorious racist who demonises asylum seekers, not at all comparable to Jones unless you've got examples of him being antisemitic and not just critical of Israel?
I think if your view on this is that it's ok for Muslims to be oppressed because of their religion then you are no better than anyone you'd label as anti-semitic.
