I'm fully on board with punitive sanctions against Israel for the atrocities it continues to unleash on Gaza - but it would be a huge stain on our nation's character if we for months turned a blind eye to the slaughter of tens of thousands of innocents, only to be finally prodded into reaction...

At least someone has done well out of it all. ****s with inside intel, making millions in profit in the hours BEFORE the Hamas attacks...

Once they've managed to kill, or drive out, all of the humans in Gaza, then their statement will be technically correct.

88 UN Aid workers killed since 07.10.23, in Israel's carefully targeted attacks on Hamas commanders. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/israel-hamas-war-is-deadliest-ever-for-un-aid-workers-with-at-least-88-killed/ar-AA1jtsVJ?ocid=msedgdhp&pc=ENTPSP&cvid=77c167408622475e9f87204fcab9ba89&ei=44

More anti-semites calling for a ceasefire. https://www.msn.com/en-gb/news/world/ceasefire-now-australian-jewish-group-breaks-ranks-with-vigils-for-peace/ar-AA1jcM5w?ocid=msedgntp&cvid=c35f9ae0f2a349be942909256888e7a3&ei=30

Agree with almost all of this. I think there is one important caveat though, which is that contributions here from various posters, make it clear that people's definition of who are to be considered 'innocent Palestinians' vary significantly. At one end of the scale, the innocents are every...

It obviously isn't designed to directly 'help' anyone. Stop Oil protesters throwing orange powder over a tennis court, do not think that direct act is going to stop the Maldives sinking into the ocean. Surely like any other direct protest, it is just designed to grab headlines and thus raise...

I think that's completely fair enough. I don't think anybody on here has argued otherwise (not that I have seen, anyway). I'm in the same boat actually - the heinous attacks were utterly sickening, and I can't imagine what it must have been like to experience such events - or even to live, and...

Its all getting completely ridiculous now - that any legitimate questioning of Israel's actions is effectively disallowed. In the past 48 hours, both our government and opposition have effectively sacked and expelled prominent MPs for suggesting that people stop killing each other. It's...

There's quite a bit to unpack here. Israel has slaughtered a couple of thousand children in the last couple of weeks, with their indiscriminate bombing. Were they also 'difficult to distinguish from Hamas soldiers'? When you are indiscriminately raining munitions down on a hemmed in population...

I think you have got ‘Palestine’, ‘Gaza’ and ‘Hamas’ a little confused, tbh. Where do you think ‘Palestine’ is, exactly? Which people do you think Hamas govern? Does your suggestion of ‘leaving Palestine to fend for itself’ include removing the 750,000 Israeli settlers from the West Bank?

I can think of a few, sadly.

No, sorry - that is absolutely not what you wrote at all. You wrote that it was 'weird' that they were included in the number of Palestinian lives lost in the 'war' (your inverted commas - not sure why they are there):

Oh I see. So this isn't about the senseless loss of thousands of young lives then? Its only about point scoring.

Would you like to explain carefully why those innocent people should somehow NOT be 'included in the numbers lost in the war'? Why did those presumably blameless people not 'count'?

The Swedish no-go areas is a lie. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/sweden-crime-no-go-zone-police/

Can people leave the childish name calling, for another time and thread, please.

That is clearly what you would LIKE to believe, but no - ‘we’ absolutely can not be ‘sure’ of that at all. Given the evidence of the last few days - never mind the last few decades - that is at best, a very naive statement. The time has come for the apologists of Israel’s actions to drop the...

<deleted> Seriously can’t be arsed.

Bollocks. the bloke has drawn multiple cartoons per WEEK, for FORTY YEARS. You can't produce THOUSANDS of satirical cartoons, without some folk rightly or wrongly interpreting them as offensive.
