    We’ve got to win this playoff before moving on to Lebanon at home and then Iran away.

    @PINKIE should be sent to prison until he coughs up his tv licence fee, he clearly only knows everything he knows from watching the Beeb, he's virtually quoting them word for word, not that I know, @BobbyD told me in a PM.

    You really should go back to page 200, what was lacking was any condemnation of the barbaric act carried out on Israel, most on here were making excuses for it or just accepting it like it was ok. Whether people feel Israel's response as disproportiaonate since, can be argued for sure, the only reason I got involved in this topic, because the thread was coming across as death to Israel, Pinkie at the forefront flying the I hate Israel flag.

    I think most on here seen the inevitable so a sense of shock was not gonna happen…….like many said this didn’t start last week it started when they started booting out Arabs for an illegal occupation

    Anyways I’m happy that 19 year old girl spoke the truth in the vid I posted…listen to her and we be fine listen to the far right and we continue this conversation forever

    Yes, you did. You quickly skimmed over it saying Hamas committed a terrible atrocity, then it was straight back to, but Israel...

    We are talking about the here and now, not what has happened beforehand. Another question, why you are ONLY blaming Israel for what's happening in Gaza but not saying a single word about why Israel bomb the **** out of the place? You have never mentioned that Hamas use civilian property to store their arms. You never mentioned that Israel keep responding to their territory being attacked with rockets from Gaza. That would give a more balanced view to what is happening over there instead of leading everyone down the road of Palestine good and Israel bad.

    I'm not sure how anybody can expect the Israelis to act differently, atm. If rockets were coming to the UK landing near own family homes and schools. We would want the RAF to find out where they're coming from and turn the place and everything around it to dust. That's what Israel is doing to Gaza.

    Would Israel have taken so much land and built settlements if they weren't constantly provoked and attacked with rockets? I highly doubt it.

    All I want in all of this is for our government to keep our noses out for once. Neither Israel or Palestine is a threat to our nations safety and stability. Let them sort it out themselves for once instead of thinking we know best and then whatever happens, happens.

    Just because you say something is the truth don't make it so, it's subjective. You will agree with anything that agrees with your only ideology. I don't watch half the videos and twitter stuff on here, because most of it gets dragged from the gutter and I do wonder sometimes how much of it is actually illegal.

    So no Abe, I won't be listening to anything on here, because the true depth of all this is very complicated, you only have to look at the conversations between @Citizen Kane and @Treble to see how complicated it is.

    Hence why I don't challenge CK, because he clearly knows more than I could ever engage with. Whereas people like @PINKIE, think they hold the answers from Cornwall but the maority of the time he's talking out his arse and forgot to pick up any bogroll from poundland.

    That's all for now. :bandit:

    I've never pretended to know anything about the area, but nor do you and nor do the majority of people on here, it just happens to be international week so they are all fooking bored. Personally I think we should keep our noses out, that's not a slur against the Israeli's or Palestinians, I just think for a little poxy island we don't half poke our noses in a lot of world issues.

    we are part of it fella we gave the seal of approval to the Rothschild family with the Balfour declaration which isn’t worth the paper it was written on

    I’m posting stuff from Jews who live with Zionist control who also see it an occupation and nothing more than tool to stir hatred in the region which effects them directly

    but yeah little ole Britain is innocent in all this….your having a laugh surely

    I never said 'little ole Britain is innocent in all this' _ I said we should keep our noses out. All people ever do is refer back to history, but that brings no solutions. It's like me saying Ukraine was part of the old USSR, and I'm reminded how history has moved on, and I have to quieten down, because it's a valid point, my main stay point was us antagonising Putin - but even there I said we should keep our noses out. Most of us weren't even born in the war, we are not accountable for carpet bombing Dresden (tongue in cheek), we were not resposible for slavery, none of us on here were responsible for windrush either, and finally none of us were responsible for setting up of a place named Israel. I wished I could turn the clock back and make a better job of it, but I can't and I wouldn't, because humans will always fight over something.

    Poor by the Israeli guys. Shouldn't have been running in straight lines when in someones scope. Easy target. Needed to see more crisscrossing.

    Yup you are right to point that out, because in response to your post on that page, I said I agreed with your first sentence, and when I look back now, I don't, and mainly because I've relooked at your actual wording which said 'but these actions are a 'reaction'' - which confirms what I said all along, that people were making excuses for the savagery that happened in Israel from the very off, including you.

    Well the 'here and now' has 1,400 Israeli dead versus 2,700 in Gaza (more than 50% of which are women and children - I can't be less concerned for those innocents than I am for Israeli civilians - and any argument that Hamas is responsible for those Palestinian deaths by what it has done is just wrong - it would mean that the recent Israeli civilians deaths can be legitimately attributed to 15 years of Israeli missiles being fired into Gaza - both arguments / rationales are complete bollocks - the death toll is due solely down to those firing the missiles or pulling the triggers - nobody else).

    The Israeli land grab is illegal - no different to Russia's in Ukraine - it can't be justified as a defensive measure - it is aggressive opportunism aimed at expanding Israel's border and contrary to International Law - as for the UK? - we can't stay out of this whilst we are part of the UN and NATO ... it would just be refreshing if we would actually show some backbone and be consistent with our 'principles' .

    So you're saying Israel are not now 'reacting' to what Hamas did?

    By that logic, should we therefore ignore what Hamas did? ... because we are going to ignore anything that might have been in some way a factor for doing something so extreme and barbaric?

    As to a 'here and now' that excludes any causal influences ...
    ... over 1,400 dead Palestinian women and kids in the last week ... bang 'here and now' ... that's some horrific 'action' (not reaction) by Israel then?..

    Intrigued to learn your differentiation ...

    ... for me it's 'cause and effect' - you can't justify what Israel is now doing if you completely ignore the factors behind the actions of Hamas in the first place ... a bunch of arabs didn't just pause a friendly game of backgammon on 7th October because they fancied committing mass murder across the border on a whim...

    Here's the cold facts from 2008 to now:

    Israeli deaths 1,708
    Palestinian deaths 9,108

    I might be a bit naiive - but I suspect those Palestinian death numbers might just have something to do with the continuing Palestinian resistance to Israeli subjugation.

    Please find one instance (and quote it) where I've 'excused' the actions of Hamas on 7th October - I didn't ... I simply pointed out the historic background to such savagery ... and the West's repeated failures to react to breaches of International Law.

    Was the Israeli music festival hiding missiles and rifles for the IDF?

    Like civilians are hiding ammo to kill Israelis with, in their homes, in Gaza?
