    100%. Utter nonsense. A genocide is only getting attention because everyone is anti semitic. What a buffoon this poster is.

    People on the Palestine bandwagon get far too emotional about their new hobby.

    I didn’t mention antisemitism. It’s hardly controversial to say this war gets disproportionate attention given it’s been headline news for the best part of two years. Having seen a few snippets of the October 7th footage I’d rather Israel didn’t respond with any thought for the views of wet Westerners with no skin in the game.

    Yeah mate it’s great.

    The first war in history where kids have died. Put in the middle by their side and used for propaganda with simple Westerners who know **** all about this but are obsessed by it anyway.

    “Hobby” “bandwagon”

    what happened on October 7th is some of the worst atrocities I’ve ever seen, alternatively what Israel are doing to innocents are some of the worse atrocities I’ve ever seen.

    there are no winners here

    What an absolute belter you are. You don’t give a **** about Palestinian children’s lives because they’re Palestinian.

    It’s a tad more complex than that but yeah if you like.

    I’d far rather they hadn’t been put in the middle of this and used as pawns by Hamas but if it’s a choice of Israel wiping out Hamas and there being inevitable civilian casualties along the way (minimised thanks to the IDF but nobody ever wants to hear about that) then it’s an unfortunate price to pay. There was no response to October 7th many people would have found acceptable other than rolling over. Hamas and Hezbollah have pushed and pushed for years and this time they pushed too hard.

    So I’d say I give more of a **** about Palestinians than they would about me given so many decided to join in on the spur of the moment when they had the opportunity to join in with killing Jews.

    ‘Inevitable civilian casualties’
    On 29th December, the IDF said it had killed 8,000 Hamas fighters. On 30th December 2023, Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor estimated 2,353 militant deaths (based 30,034 total and 27,681 civilian deaths).

    Yes. Civilians die in wars but this one has the added bonus of Hamas building their entire infrastructure around putting them in harm’s way.

    They remain free to release the hostages at any point as has been the case for 20 months.

    You won’t find me defending what happened to the people enjoying life at a music festival. Or the torture and abuse of Palestinian prisoners on indeterminate sentences in Israeli jails.

    Some of these arguments are absolutely ludicrous ...

    ... none so blind, etc.

    What’s happening may not succeed in destroying Hamas but it’s certainly eradicating sympathy for the Holocaust.

    What Israel are doing is just as bad in my opinion.

    Odious comment award.

    The holocaust remains an abhorrent thing but there’s an approach here emerging that a singular, dreadful event at a music festival will be followed by an intent to make peace between people by committing genocide. You can’t fight to make peace when the main aggressor is the one with the power. I think there’s a case for UN intervention to remove the Israeli’s, including those in settlements and an enforced border alongside a peace process. Use the weapons made to enforce a peace not give them to those who slaughter multitudes of school children.

    You can’t seriously criticise me calling Palestine a bandwagon for Westerners and then say it’s as bad as the actual Holocaust.

    I was just watching the Til I Die documentary and a few other YouTube videos and an "advert" in the middle was an Israeli targeted ad criticising European politicians, suggesting Hamas would kill and rape Europeans if they were here and advising them to stop supporting Gaza.

    Really disgusting and disturbing that this kind of targeted propaganda is shown on something like YouTube. I don't follow any political accounts on there or really participate in discussion on such things on the internet, so they're obviously targeting far wider than you'd expect.

    I find your choice of terminology interesting, as a Jewish person and presumably a Londoner (QPR fan?) do you see yourself as different from the native population ie Westerners? If so, in what way exactly? As an easterner?
