    There are two points.

    1. Are Zionists generally ****s? Yes.

    2. Does Nir Biton have the right to air a pro-Israeli opinion without being told to 'get tae **** out of our club'? Yes.

    You can present all the evidence in the world that Israel are acting the ****, but it's separate issue as to whether Nir Biton has a right to be pro-Israeli - or he should hide his true opinions because they don't toe the party line.

    Exactly Mick. Nobody expects players to be emotionless or cold.

    He expressed his opinion, which I personally don't agree with, in a sensible fashion. He didn't advocate anything specific which might cause offence.

    His support might be unpalatable to some but he went about it in a more mature fashion than many others have done.

    I have been arguing both points separately but on your point 2 it's his right to stay at the club but fans can tell him to **** off if they want as it is their right to voice their opinion too

    Are the Wall St Journal, NBC and the Telegraph known Palestinian sympathisers?

    Hypocrites you mean? Fannies who support Stokes activities with nary a word of condemnation, even arguing that he has a right to do what he wants whilst condemning Leigh Griffiths and Nir Biton?

    What did you say when people said Anthony Stokes should **** off after his umpteenth transgression?


    The links don't work so I don't know. Another fail.

    I disagreed with them over Stokes but understood they had the right to their opinion

    Google NBC for the destruction of the hospital the Telegraph for the UN reporting 80% civilian casualties and WSJ for the beach deaths

    Of course you won't do it so you can win an Internet argument with deflection instead of the usual pedantry

    The argument is long since won because you seem unable to take on board that there is absolutely no way anyone can state with certainty that 80% of the casulaties are civilians.

    Likewise, according to you the Israelis are on some kind of killing spree, targetting the innocent populace of Gaza who are completely unarmed. Yet despite rolling in with Tanks, Jets, Gunships and Artlliery the IDF have in 5 days only managed to kill a few hundred people. If it's random killing they are engaged in all I can say is that they are not very good at it.

    The IDF are now beginning to see deaths within their own ranks, who do you suppose is killing them? Civilians?

    I'd agree that's largely what's going on.

    Considering the IDF have taken more casualties in 2 days than in their last two engagements combined would suggest that they have missed all the Palestinians carrying guns

    But hey if we can only take your word that they aren't civilians compared to the UN who said 4/5 casualties are civilian then I suppose it is well won

    Dev, just ignore the dumb ****.

    This is a thread about Nir Biton and Celtic fans. Not about whether Israel are 21st Century Nazis.

    Yet another attempt by the perennial idiot to hijack a thread to spout his pro-terror pish.

    No you're not, youre turning to pedantry by suggesting that because they are armed they have an army yet forgetting that in a previous discussion regarding the IRA you wouldn't recognise them as an army because they were classed as a terrorist group and didn't wear uniforms long enough...just like Hamas

    Roon ye

    What on earth are you talking about? <laugh>

    There's no point in destroying your own argument, you've already done that several times.

    You implied the Palestinians were unarmed <doh>

    Yeah there was no way a thread about a player supporting one side of a conflict was going lead to a discussion on the conflict

    Hate to name call but you're a *****
