Considering you have Armagh in your username he might have clicked on but the defender of rapists knows more about the history of NI then the people who lived through it.

Hamas ≠ Palestinians, and Israel ≠ Jews.
The sooner some people realise this, including the Killer from Manilla, the discussions (cough, arguments) in here should become more reasoned.

You see the thing is, I grew up in a heavily militarised conflict zone. I heard the explosions, the gunfire and sadly saw bodies on roadsides. I also saw the peace talks fail many times until they finally stuck and gave us our relative stability. Dialogue is the only way out of this carnage.

doh
As I keep saying, israel will not offer anything like what the Palestinians want. The can hold protracted peace talks for years that will keep breaking down cos they’re so badly weighted and isrsel will continue their murder and land grabs while pretending to talk peace. It’s a no win for the their hosts I’m afraid

Not denying that. But omg wikipedia
generally thinking no serious person thinks Finns were nazis. Like I said it was product of circumstances. Everyone knows we did what ever we could to cope with Ruskies.
By Israeli historian Ilan Pappe:
It is not always easy to stick to your moral compass, but if it does point north – towards decolonization and liberation – then it will most likely guide you through the fog of poisonous propaganda.
It is challenging to maintain one’s moral compass when the society you belong to – leaders and media alike – takes the moral high ground and expects you to share with them the same righteous fury with which they reacted to the events of last Saturday, October 7.
There is only one way to resist the temptation to join in: if you understood, at one point in your life – even as a Jewish citizen of Israel – the settler colonial nature of Zionism, and were horrified by its policies against the indigenous people of Palestine.
If you have had that realization, then you will not waver, even if the poisonous messages depict Palestinians as animals, or ‘human animals.’ These same people insist on describing what took place last Saturday as a ‘Holocaust’, thus abusing the memory of a great tragedy. These sentiments are being conveyed, day and night by both Israeli media and politicians.
It is this moral compass that led me, and others in our society, to stand by the Palestinian people in every way possible; and that enables us, at the same time, to admire the courage of the Palestinian fighters who took over a dozen military bases, overcoming the strongest army in the Middle East.
Also, people like me cannot avoid but raise questions about the moral or strategic value of some of the actions that accompanied this operation.
Because we always supported the decolonization of Palestine, we knew that the longer Israeli oppression continued, the less likely the liberation struggle would be “sterile” – as it has been the case in every just struggle for liberation in the past, anywhere in the world.
This does not mean we should not keep an eye on the big picture, not even for a minute. The picture is that of a colonized people fighting for survival.

You've agreed with another poster its the same situation.
So who was the 'ruler' of Northern Ireland in the same way Hamas rules Gaza?
Seeing as you know about it so well...surely you can give the name of the comparable group to Hamas.
The one that murders and tortures its own innocent people, steals aid supplies, destroys its own infrastructure for military means and is funded by another country over decades in the tens (now hundred) of millions.
The brutality against LGBT with kids/ teenagers being battered and adults being executed and even beheaded.
Looking forward to that Northern Irish 'Hamas' groups' name.

Your book is equivalent to the Sun then
And I thought it had gotten tetchy in the police-are-scum thread. Jesus.
This is not a thread about NI bar advocating a peace process.
