Current Affairs Israel is an apartheid state

What news channel does everyone keep to date with this on in the UK? What’s the most neutral?

Flicked through all the news channels and every channel has it 500 killed but the bbc has it has 300. No surprise

More precisely, killing civilians is counterproductive. It breeds more terrorists. The article on CNN I linked written by a congressman who served in Iraq explicitly comments on the problem.

He acknowledges the reality of the situation, which is that the terrorists are ruthless enough to use civilians as human shields. If you want to beat them with force, you have to kill more of them than you recruit by killing civilians. The standard estimate is that killing one civilian yields ten new terrorists. If you aren't bagging terrorists faster than you're inflicting collateral damage, you're not just committing war crimes. You're losing.

One broad problem with the implementation of the War on Terror was that the West prioritized killing high-value targets, and forgot about the fact that if you breed new terrorists fast enough, you're likely to be staring at more competent colonels and generals than the present ones down the road.

The fact you and the American soldier are calling these people who have had their children blow up terrorists for wanting to do something about it is a problem in itself

Skim. Different nations channels, different perspectives.

Channel 4 news tends to be the one I watch

That’s an Anglican run hospital by the way, doing the work of Christian men and women.

This must end, now.

BBC also said we need to wait to see was this a mistake or were Israel targeting someone in the hospital or under the hospital. Vile.

If someone killed my child I’d want bloody revenge. But I’d be wrong – as is the Israeli government | Rob Delaney

I fear there will be terrible slaughter in Gaza, and leaders in the UK and the US seem willing to aid and sanction it, says comedian and writer Rob Delaney

America should do something cause they are they are only ones who could reign them in.

Cause all this so far shows that you can do whatever [Poor language removed] you want and bomb and kill indiscriminately as long you are kissing American arse.

"International community" is biggest joke ever, bunch of impotent cowards afraid to say anything.

Looking forward to the overnight multi quote
