    It is, but it's worth pointing out that it's covered in this thread

    And yeah I agree that the people killed at Nova and elsewhere that day deserve to be commemorated and should be included in the same condemnation of the slaughter of innocent people. I don't care which flag you're waving, if you gun down innocent people, then you are scum.

    I also think this Israeli Govt deserve all of the heat that they are getting at the moment and the pressure on them needs to be kept front and centre.

    Same - indeed me and the Mrs were debating how their name was pronounced ... was it a play on Bob Dylan or on 'vile' ... still don't know, don't care and whilst I might now look at Luvs link if I get a spare minute, wouldn't have otherwise...

    No surprise, tbh.

    This is absolute horse ****.

    At best, they’ve had a very rare mention and usually after me or brb have asked why you lot only focus on what the Jewish people and Israel are doing whilst not giving a **** at worse atrocities happening elsewhere in the world.

    I agree with you that no other conflict draws so much attention... but most conflicts currently going on on the world are internal and in the case of Somalia a civil war between seemingly equally armed factions.

    What differentiates what Israel has done in Gaza since Oct 7th is the extent of the devastatuon to a foreign land - and that a whole people have seemingly been targeted and no structure or institution, medical, educational or religious, has been spared - for the actions of a few terrorists - and that they have used colossal US backed force against an enemy armed with rockets, RPGs and hand-held guns ...

    There is no real equivalence to that scenario currently taking place in the world...

    protests outside the embassy of :

    - China, regarding the alleged treatment of the Uyghurs
    - Myanmar, regarding the alleged treatment of the Rohingya

    Yemen must be approaching half a million deaths. Plenty of people over there dying due to starvation and infections.

    Sudan. Well, there’s actual ethnic cleansing and genocide going on. You’d think people would be mentioning these things as much as what the Jews are doing, maybe even more so.

    By LUAI AHMED : "To those raising the Palestinian flag,

    Where were you when ISIS was launched and beheaded tens of thousands of Arabs in Iraq, Libya, and Syria in the name of Islam? Why didn’t you take to the streets and raise their flags? Why didn’t you condemn the terror and call for a ”ceasefire”?

    Where were you when Arab dictators and terrorists killed hundreds of thousands of Arabs in Syria and Libya? Why didn’t you take to the streets and raise their flags? Why didn’t you condemn the terror and call for a ”ceasefire”?

    Where were you in the last decade when Saudi Arabia, backed by 8 Arab countries, killed 400,000 Yemenis, my own people? I didn’t see any of you take to the streets or raise the Yemeni flag. I did not see any of you condemning the terror and calling for a ”ceasefire” while Arab countries were slaughtering my own people.

    This must lead to some self-reflection.

    When millions of Arabs are slaughtered by other Arabs, you say nothing.

    But when 7 thousand of Arabs are killed by Jews defending their right to exist, you revolt, you get angry, you storm the streets in the East and the West, you raise the Palestinian flag, you condemn the terror, you call for a ceasefire, you turn the world upside down.

    Why is that?

    Why were you so silent then but SO LOUD now?

    Can it be that you are finally raising a flag and creating chaos because you only hate that the perpetrators are Jews?

    Because you obviously don't care when millions of Arabs are killed by other Arabs.

    Can it be that you storming the streets is just you venting out your hatred towards Jews? The same hatred we learned in our mosques and schools?

    You speak of ”numbers and proportionality.” But by the rules of proportionality, you should not be raising Palestinian flags.

    Unless, there is another agenda at play: Jew-hatred. Or as I would call it: Hatred.

    I also level the same exact charges against Jews.

    The Nazi atrocities were supposed to be a "never again" event.
    I dont recall Jews, Israeli or not, protesting en masse against the
    atrocities of the :

    - Khymer rouge in Cambodia
    - Hutu people in Rwanda
    - etc

    It’s on the news now that Sudan has the biggest humanitarian crisis in the world. We’ll have to virtue signal our way over there now and forget about Gaza for a while.

    Chief Rabbi calling what happened at Glastonbury a national shame. I fully agree with this gentleman.

    You’ve lost me on how that is the same?

    I’m talking about people who only protest about wars when the Jews are involved. I don’t care if people protest against wars or not. I personally couldn’t give a **** but if you’re going to pretend to care about a humanitarian crisis and war, then at least keep that equal for what’s happening around the world and not just when Jews are involved.

    So four posts in how many years? How many posts you made on Israel and Palestine?

    Usually after it’s been mentioned that nothing else seems to matter to you guys.

    Knew I was right.
