Spot on

Any Labour member that doesnt back a Ceasefire has blood on their hands. Absolutely disgusting that a supposed party of the left continues to support Israel unconditionally in the way it does.

Depends on personal humour but a few US ones to try Bad Friends TigerBelly Bill Burrs podcast

Indeed and includes 240 killed by Israel and close to 10,000 injuries (UN figures) - in 2023 alone

Amazing turnout in London on Saturday. Attendance figures quoted vary from lowest at 300,000 to higher end at 800,000 + Can question the effectiveness of it all but heartening to see that so many people will make the effort to speak up against the horrors that Israel is currently and has...

Details for the London march today https://www.stopwar.org.uk/events/national-march-for-palestine-ceasefire-now/

A few things Remembrance day is Sunday. The protest is well after after the minutes silence Lots of other things are happening that day. Why is the football still happening? Bit disrespectful? Strictly come dancing also stopped? People want to peacefully protest against mass killings which is...

Mature performance despite our lack of European experience. For them thought Brobbey was impressive. The strength he showed to hold off PVH was notable. Could imagine him leading the line for us and opening space for the intricate passing of others / 2nd striker

Powerful short speech by Israeli author and journalist Gideon Levy

I completely agree it's a poor analogy - I've seen it referenced many times during these threads including in the post I replied too - mainly with regard to justifying Israeli current ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.

Interesting that your analogy ascribes the Palestinians as the Germans and the Israelis as the Allies. The Israelis who are carrying out the occupation Apartheid, and ethnic cleansing are a much better fit with the Germans. It's quite some twist of logic to spin it the other way.

Coogan was spot on on about Starmer. The guy stands for everything and nothing. He lies easily and frequently. His answers on topics fully depend on the way the political wind is blowing. He will weaponise anything including race and religion for political purposes and will ruthless through...

Theres that claim again about reclaiming the "moral ground" Israel never had the moral high ground unless Apartheid, occupation and ethnic cleansing are considered moral. Another phrase or theme that is highly disputed yet is often regurgitated is the use of human shields by Hamas. There is...

Just a few tropes and generalisations thrown in there. Please read/travel/get out more

The idea that the Israelis had the "moral ground" or even close to it before recent events is a laughable fallacy. They were oppressing, occupying and killing Palestinians long before last month.

My experience is that there are varied views amongst the Jewish community. Unfortunately the media and UK/US politics are less tolerant of those that differ from unequivocal support of Israel and I see them branded as the "wrong type of Jew", not a real Jew" etc etc Again only my experience...

Lets say Hamas are removed - you would expect eventually some form of armed resistance to spring up (and justifiably so) to the occupation. The West Bank does not have Hamas in charge and Palestinians still suffer displacement, subjugation and death. The analysis also fails to put any onus...

You missed the point of my post. Please reread.

It's not strictly speaking someone else's war though is it and we have contributed to the current state of affairs. The Balfour declaration helped facilitate the Nakba and death and displacement of Palestinians. We sell arms (almost half a billions worth in last 8 years) and also give...

And that assumes we believe Israel that a Hamas member was at the camp rather than the explanation being a post war crime justification. Israel can somehow locate a single Hamas member in a refugee camp, yet were unable to detect the preparation and implementation of a wider attack involving...
