Politics & Stuff

Poor journalists, the rockets must be really loud. Obviously much more scarier than seeing your family ripped apart in front of your eyes in a location where you've been told to evacuate that was supposed to be safe.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Human shield ( "martyrs" who are lauded as heroes ) policy, straight from the horse's mouth. Is someone going to blame the "Zionists" for this as well?

Also, in light of that, who really is murdering the Palestinian civilians? Hamas or Israel? Who promotes a culture of death in Gaza? Hamas. Who has turned Gaza into terrorist state after the Jews left there 9 years ago? Hamas

Why does Hamas keep on firing rockets into Isreali civilian territory? From these boards, absolutely nothing. What role does Hamas have to play in the suffering of its own people? Let's just blame the Jews for defending their nation, as if any other country will put up with a terrorist organisation firing rockets into its borders. And why not. That sort of culture and mentality is widespread and actively promoted in schools and mosques in the Arab/Muslim world. Even hear in Chicago.

And what are the Hamas leaders doing for their people? Nothing much but promote terror and religious bigotry. They're stinkingly rich anyway and Mashal, its leader is currently residing in Qatar, enjoying his illegally gained wealth while his fellow Palestinians suffer.

No, let's not take into consideration how responsible Hamas is for the plight of the children in Gaza. Let's blame the Jews. Hamas spokesmen say themselves that they use their people as human shields and the tactic is "very effective" but lets blame Israel. And you're surprised that the "Israeli boys" have left this thread?

That's why apart from the Palestinian kids who have no part in the insanity and who get caught in the cross hairs of the insane religious and political agenda of Hamas, its hard to feel sympathy for anyone else. Shame on those parents who encourage their children to give their lives as "martyrs". Shame on those preachers who promote hatred against an entire race of people they don't even know. Shame on the schools and Palestinian media that promoted hatred. These people are part of the problem and are slaves to their own leaders.

Long may Israel continue to defend its people from terrorists who fill its their religious duty to kill every Jew till there is none left. (It's in Hamas' charter, the genocide of Jews). Any sane country will do the same to protect its civilians, even if it means civilian casualties on the other side occurs. This is what history shows us.

i can't support either side. both evil in my eyes, and will cause innocents to die, because of their racist ignorance.

If Israel wanted to kill civilians, it is terrible at it. ISIS killed more civilians in two days (700 plus) than Israel has in two weeks. Imagine if ISIS or Hamas had Israel's weapons, army, air force, US support, and nuclear arsenal. Their enemies would've been annihilated long ago. If Israel truly wanted to destroy Gaza, it could do so within a day, right from the air. Why carry out a more painful, expensive ground incursion that risks the lives of its soldiers (64 soldiers died so far). And why would we constantly agree to ceasefires?

Your army told the US that your objective is to cause as much civilians death as possible. Targeting civilians is an official IOF policy! It is a plan you call the "Dahiya doctrine".

"...Israel will use disproportionate force upon any village that fires upon Israel, "causing great damage and destruction."...the possibility of harm to the population has been Hizballah leader Nasrallah's main constraint, and the reason for the quiet over the past two years."

Those are not my words. Those are the words of Major-General Gadi Eisenkot: https://wikileaks.org/plusd/cables/08TELAVIV2329_a.html#efmBOyBWZ

No more excuses. No more LIES.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

LOL, Our objective is not to kill civilians. it's just to hurt an area that Hamas used to shot from to our cities. this is the TRUTH

but again I will not try to convince you because it's a waste of time, I have more important things to do.

Yes, your Major-General was just making a joke when he talked about the approved military plan called the "Dahiya doctrine" and how it aimed at causing as much civilian casualties as possible, right? Weird sense of humor...

yes its deplorable. but Hamas have no qualms , putting dangerous weapons in schools and hospitals. bottom line is , neither cares less about civilian deaths.

I, and everyone supporting the Palestinians in this thread, have said multiple times how terrible Hamas are. But Hamas aren't the Palestinian people and Hamas aren't even the Palestinian resistance and they certainly aren't the reason why the IOF are massacring all those civilians. They are just the latest excuse. In fact, Israel helped Hamas gain prominence in Palestine because they make the perfect excuse. Read this: http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article10456.htm

that article looks unreliable to me. i dont know what to believe. so many conflicting reports. im going to stop following the situation, and just pray for peace.

sadly , i see little chance of stability, in parts of the middle east, any time soon.

There are many more sources.

Also for the others: you should read the Goldstein UN rapport on the use of palestinian human shields by the Israëli's during Cast Lead.

Or the thing of tying up of people on the front of army trucks to cause a riot and dras fire, while placing snippers all around.

This is all confirmed btw. So now what?

We can keep citing things from both sides, but the fact remains Israel is the oppressor in direct violating with International law and breaking human rights. Not even the US is denying that any more. Your time to pay will come, just as it once did in Nürenberg.

Has the Russel Brand v Fox News dispute been posted yet? Sean Hannity is such an ignorant idiot

Part 1:

Part 2:

Russell understands the situation, fair play.

That Fox news anchor, what a fucking tool.

btw Fox News, known for its right wing bollocks, is owned by the same person who owns News of the World, who hacked the phone of a murdered school girl. The owner is Rupert Murdoch, who just happens to have large business interests in Israel.

I do find it very tiresome how those who wish to legitimately criticise Israel are immediately tarnished with the tag of anti-antisemitism. Similar to how those wanting a debate on immigration are often tagged racist. It only serves to stifle debate and stir up frustration, bitterness and misinformation.

[Kieran. 6,317]

Lol people against immigration are fucking racist but whatever

[The Skipper 20,593]

This is the reality of Hamas:

Why do you keep on posting vids on Hamas like some on here support them? As far as I have read no one here supports the Hamas regime in any sense... Condemning the actions of Israel doesn't equal supporting Hamas...

Because he is trying to imply that because Hamas are bad, it somehow justifies the killing of innocent civilians. I tried to argue with him at the start of the conflict but that's when all the ugly islamophobic stuff came out.

Btw, all those Hamas videos are taken out of context and largely mistranslated.

Please don't tell me this is a serious post.

[Spike 12,049]

What if I was white and lived on a small island that could sustain about 1000 people easily and boat load of 10,000 other white people tried to immigrate to the island?

[Liquidator 5,176]

Not the first time I've seen something that isn't racist be described as racist by a certain member
