Israel / Palestine

[theclaud]

or who has committed the more heinous acts,

It's Israel. It's not even close. HTH!

 

[theclaud]

Would you have dismissed the oppression in apartheid South Africa in the same way?

I'm gonna go with a "Yes he would, and probably he did".

 

[theclaud]

Everything makes a lot more sense when you realise that it doesn't matter in any way what Spen thinks is right or wrong.* Jumped-up genocide apologists with lawyer fantasies can simply take their irrelevant, parochial morality and shove it up their arses.

*Obviously this applies in a general way to moral judgements about the tactics of national liberation movements, but it's more fun to pick on idiot boy.

Sven's quite right of course. It's really nothing more than a playground squabble between two otherwise lovable cheeky cherubs. If they just manned up and shook hands we could all get back to this lovely toast and honey he made for tea.

While you two have a circle-jerk high-five over Spen also being an obvious racist, can the rest of us get back to talking about Palestine?

Are you going to come up with a sensible solution [™AS]?

Saying both sides have done wrong makes me a racist?
Interesting logic

We have the preferred CC solution, Ian. I asked what a free Palestine would look like and it was answered. It's been made (pretty) clear what it would involve and what is justified in achieving it.

So far I’ve seen no Jury, just the expert witnesses for the prosecution and defence.

What a delightfully archaic view of how a justice system should operate. Ha!

Meanwhile, in the USofA, the conflict might be an elecfion decider:

Despite Trump being a declared supporter of "Bibi", arab/muslim voters may punish the democrats for funding Israel's war machine.

What a mess :-/

Shows the stupidity of the average voter.

It shows the stupidity of the electoral system. Ours in the UK is pretty bad but at least I was able to exercise the option of voting for notLabour with an actual chance of it making a difference.

I'm glad I'm not American right now. I don't think I could bring myself to vote for either main candidate. How could I bring myself to vote for someone who's doing... that?

Don't blame the electorate for being stupid, blame the candidates for not being better.

Free Palestine 🇵🇸
