Its a shame Mods don't explain their actions. An extremely important (and of course emotive) subject which deserves continued discussion (along with all the other non football related threads on NSC) in my opinion.
On this subject, I went out on Saturday and when I next logged in, the Gaza 2 thread had disappeared. Any idea why? Its the main lead on Channel 4 news tonight (and wholly depressing it is too), yet the NSC thread has gone?
