Palestine 14:20 - Jul 11 with 57253 views | oh_tommy_tommy | When are Israel going to stop bombing the f@k out of Palestine murdering innocent children . No condemnation from our government . It must be to do with the multi millions of pounds given to the government for weapons by the dreadful zionists in charge of their state . | |

Palestine on 16:49 - Jul 25 with 1553 views | Aquinas | http://www.dailymail.co.uk/debate/article-2705042/RICHARD-LITTLEJOHN-What-Hamas- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Explain the difference. Paramilitaries fire a missile which brings down a civilian airliner over Ukraine. They are widely condemned as murderous gangsters and war criminals who must be hunted down and brought to justice. Another ruthless gang of paramilitaries fire missiles at a civilian airport in Israel. Scroll down for video Thousands of protesters march through Whitehall in central London, to call for an end to Israeli military action in Gaza Thousands of protesters march through Whitehall in central London, to call for an end to Israeli military action in Gaza They are hailed as heroic ‘resistance fighters’ and receive widespread support in the West. Let’s just imagine, for a moment, that a rocket fired from Gaza had hit a plane coming in to land at Ben Gurion airport in Tel Aviv. What if a British Airways jet had been brought down over Israel, with a similar loss of life to the 298 people who perished on Malaysian flight MH17? Would it still be considered appropriate to hold yet another march through London this weekend, waving banners proclaiming ‘We are all Hamas now’? Protestors take to the streets outside London's Israeli Embassy At least 17 people climbed on top of the London bus during a protest in London earlier this month At least 17 people climbed on top of the London bus during a protest in London earlier this month Look, let me make one thing absolutely clear: what’s happening in Gaza is a terrible tragedy, especially the deaths of non-combatants. No one with a shred of humanity can fail to be disturbed by the plight of innocent children caught in the crossfire. No, what depresses me is the one-sided apportioning of blame, the idea that Israel is the ‘aggressor’ in this conflict. Everyone says they want an immediate ceasefire. Israel wants a ceasefire. But that will only occur when Hamas stops using Gaza as a launchpad to fire thousands of rockets aimed deliberately at killing Israeli civilians. Hamas has made it clear that isn’t going to happen. Some people seem to think that because Israel has pretty effective air defences, it should absorb the pain and not retaliate. Israel shelters behind sophisticated technology. Hamas hides behind women and children, in schools, hospitals and mosques. Yet, as far as its useful idiots in Britain and Europe are concerned, Israel is the only one guilty of ‘war crimes’, no matter how many precautions it takes to avoid innocent deaths. Hamas has no regard for human life, on either side. Every death is a propaganda victory, amplified by gullible sympathisers in the Western media. But there is rarely any condemnation of this cynical campaign of terror, or of its oil-rich sponsors who want to wipe Israel off the face of the earth. Is Iran going to stop supplying weapons to Hamas? No. Is Qatar going to stop bankrolling terrorism? What do you think? Crowds lined the main road in Kensington High Street, preventing any vehicles from using the road Crowds lined the main road in Kensington High Street, preventing any vehicles from using the road So where are the demonstrations against Iran and Qatar? Come to that, where are the marches against Islamist slaughter in Syria and kidnapped schoolgirls in Africa? Or, for that matter, the mass protests against Russia’s annexation of Crimea or Putin’s sponsorship of terrorism in Ukraine? Precisely. The Stop The War crowd are myopically selective in their indignation. They’ll overlook all manner of atrocities in the Muslim world and in the former Soviet bloc, but become incandescent with fury when Israel exercises its inalienable right to self-defence. Underlying all this is a nasty streak of anti-semitism, the unholy alliance between the self-styled ‘liberal’ Left and stone-age Muslim headbangers, which I exposed in a Channel 4 documentary a few years ago. Fortunately, it hasn’t manifested itself as violently in this country as it has on the Continent, where it is never far from the surface – especially in France. The Israeli ambassador in Berlin has compared the level of anti-Semitism to 1938. Despite the traffic jams and large crowds, police said the protest was largely peaceful as a whole Despite the traffic jams and large crowds, police said the protest was largely peaceful as a whole But indiscriminate anti-Jewish sentiment is rising in Britain. Security has been stepped up at Jewish schools and synagogues. A shop in Manchester, for instance, is targeted by pro-Hamas demonstrators every day because it sells some goods made in Israel. Again, though, this is knee-jerk stuff. There’s no consistency. Protesters call for a boycott of Israel, but they’re not prepared to throw away their mobile phones, laptops and satellite set-top boxes which would be useless without Israeli technology. They’re like the ‘anti-globalisation’ crowd, kitted out in Nike trainers, sipping skinny lattes from Starbucks and organising riots on iPhones. The absurd contradictions are lost on them. Most of this is mindless posturing, unthinking exhibitionism, part of the modern curse of everyone living in their own movie. They all want to be in on the act, complete with fetching intifada scarf as fashion accessory. There’s no calm analysis, no sober examination of the facts, just an incontinent outpouring of sentiment and emotion. They can twist anything to suit their warped world view. We’ve even had a sitting Lib Dem MP, David Ward, announcing that he’d be firing rockets if he lived in Gaza. Perhaps he’d like to do us all a favour and move there. I keep wondering if we could ever win a conventional war these days. You can just imagine the ‘We Are All Hamas Now’ crowd in 1944, marching on Downing Street. Even as the doodlebugs were raining down on London, they’d be screaming that the D-Day invasion was ‘a disproportionate use of force’, wringing their hands over civilian casualties in Berlin and demanding that Churchill was prosecuted for war crimes. Yet among the gormless rent-a-mob, there are dangerous people who wish not just Israel but all of us serious harm. They’re the same hardliners who cheered as the planes hit the Twin Towers, who justified the London Transport bombings and want to impose Sharia law in Britain. Israel is in the frontline of global jihad, but we’re on the list, too. It’s all very well to lament that Israel is losing the battle for world opinion. But Israel is fighting a real war, not a propaganda war, one that it can’t afford to lose. And what if a rocket fired at Ben Gurion airport had hit a British Airways plane, killing all the passengers on board? Does anyone seriously believe that Hamas would have genuinely regretted the innocent loss of civilian life, despite the widespread support it receives in Britain? Of course not. We are all infidels now. | | | |

Phew. I was worried I was wrong in thinking Israel are rather acting the arse at the moment. Luckily my view has now been confirmed. | |

Palestine on 21:18 - Jul 25 with 1416 views | Highjack | I haven't read all of this thread so this might have been covered before but surely of all the peoples in the world, Israeli's should know what it's like to be systematically murdered and downtrodden whilst completely defenceless. So how the hell can they look at themselves in the mirror with all this going on? | |

Exactly. The only way I can understand what Israel is doing at the moment it is that there must be some collective guilt complex that they didn't do enough to stop the holocaust and have to be seen to be strong. It really is a tragedy and ultimately they 'll be seen to be like the Boers - just plain wrong. | |

Seems to depend who the victims are. Just saw this pic with the caption "They went to check their house and found this" | |

Ther'll be a ceasefire eventually and the media will move on. There were horrible attrocities in Sri Lanka too - but who remembers? The cricket goes on. We live in a sick world. | |

Why would they? As I said the other day, Israel's actions are only ensuring the next generation of hamas fighters. Neither Israel or Hamas are particularly interested in this stopping. Yet all the time the genocide in Gaza at the hands of Israel continues. | |
