people popping in to condemn hamas now are showing their true colours. did they did this was a thread of terrorist cheering or something?

Even the media narrative is now changing
We have just witnessed the biggest terrorist atrocity since 9/11 committed by Hamas mainly targeting civilians, of course people are going to condemn it. The fact that Hamas has done this with full knowledge that there would be a reprisal against the people in Gaza, in amongst whom they have embedded themselves and are firing rockets from residential areas shows how much they care about Palestinian people. Bibi is a monster and won't need telling twice to displace the people of Gaza and faltten it. The action has been planned for the reaction. People saying that we need to find ways to try and influence Bibi and his ilk is the right thing to do in this situation. The entire area is on the brink and Hamas clearly want a full escalation. Personally speaking I don't think that will end well for anyone, Palestian or Israeli civilians or the surrounding countries.

So yes, anyone 'popping in' to condemn the biggest terrorist atrocity in recent times is probably demonstrating a normal human emotion. Anyone having difficulty with that however you'd have to question.
 

Comments section blaming the youth for being ‘indoctrinated’ holy cow

There’s a simplistic approach that the majority just don’t seem to have drilled into their thick skulls, sympathising with the innocent Palestinian people does not make you pro Hamas and anti sematic towards Israelis same as sympathising with innocent Israelis does not make you pro to Israel’s tactics and anti Muslim, it’s just basic humanitarianism towards people who have done absolutely nothing wrong because two scummy entities can’t leave each other alone

We all know the weird arrogance he has, calling people 'childish' if its something he doesn't like and then just repeats the same story over and over

and to me, this is another perfect example of that with the 'look at all of these youngsters quarrelling' type of attitude - life isn't as black and while as the old picture thread.

I think you misunderstood what i meant here, to an extent, so i feel a bit bad seeing you have written quite a lot here - and reading it back, i don't think i worded it that well ha
 
So, letting Israel continue unabated is your answer!?

Wow
Absoultely 100% not.

But you have to realise that we are not the Israeli gov, unfortunately Bibi is at the helm.

If we don't find the correct ways to bring him on side you could see him planning to eradicate as much of Gaza as possible, and then most likely occupy it.

The situation needs to be pulled back. To do that the first thing has to be to manage the fall out of last weeks attack and make sure that it doesn't go down the path Hamas/Iran have most likely planned for.
 
….Starmer, the British and US Government stance is that the Israeli response should be within legal guidance. That is the right stance.

The Hamas attack on Israel was a terrorist attack. Their treatment of individuals was inhumane and I can’t even think of the pain the Israeli families are going through who’s loved ones have been taken hostage. I can understand why Israel want to wipe out Hamas. I can understand the Israeli response.

Ironically, tragically and perversely, Hamas's hatred and atrocities have been more honest than the politicians.

I loathe the way people seem to pick a side in this conflict and act like it's a football match, and can only deal with absolutes.

Israel is undoubtedly the oppressor, but what about the corrupting effect the Occupation has on Israeli youth? Chucking 18 year olds dosed up on propaganda into a place like Gaza. Being asked to protect the lunatics in Hebron etc. You meet so many Israelis travelling who are mindblown by it, or running away to avoid being drafted again. It's really sad.

What about the fact that prior to the Occupation, Palestine had one of the most Westernised, Eurocentic, best educated Arab populations?

What about the fact that a fair bit of Palestinian employment is with Israeli companies?

What about the fact that Hamas doesn't control the majority of Palestinian Territory - The West Bank? Yet people talk like Hamas is the sole representative of the Palestinian people.

What about realising that many of those Palestinians that do vote for Hamas do so not because of its commitment to destroy Israel, but because of its seeming lack of corruption when compared to the PLO, and its ability to get things done within Palestinian society?

What about the at least 100 years or so of history you need to read to really get a handle on this conflict. Not what happened yesterday or whatever?

The whole situation is properly messed up like a plate of scrambled eggs, the two peoples' histories are far more entwined than many would can accept, and the continued nullification of the other's national story by the other will only lead to a continued cycle of bloodshed.

Again, the real battle is between people who want to coexist together and really "make the desert bloom", and those who'd rather kill each other.
