Middle East Conflict

If a mad gunman kills some people and then barricades himself in to a house with 3 hostages, do the police get the bloke by blowing up the house, and sod the hostages?

Not to mention blowing up the whole neighborhood including schools and hospitals and depriving it of food water and power.

Israel ambassador to uk “there is no humanitarian crisis in Gaza”. Fucking hell, whilst having complete sympathy with the atrocities committed on Israelis, that comment is just plain daft. Explain the reasons why you think what you are doing is justified but don’t deny you’re doing it

Welcome to Israeli propaganda.

Can’t disagree there mate.

Will it ever change or will we always stay a greedy selfish society? I’d like to think one day it will change but what would be the catalyst for it?

I’d say God knows but he’s the fucking problem for the most part!!






Disclaimer…. I don’t believe in fairy tales…..

I think it would take a catastrophic global event like a pandemic that was actually effective in wiping out 90% of the population and I guess humanity might have a chance as there could be less pressure on land and resources afterwards, but that scenario just as likely to end in dystopia, probably more likely.

That and the fact there’s too many of us on the planet.

Absolutely - Atheism is actually a religion and Humanism is it's major sect.
Quite often tolerance just isn't there. And that's the big problem - Non tolerance of others.
Democracy has huge problems this century because of non-acceptance of others opinion.

Excellent point, and explains why numerous countries are unhealthy places to live if you don't comply with the ruling orthodoxy - I wouldn't fancy living in a lot of sub-Saharan Africa if I were gay right now, given the increasing influence of evangelical christian doctrine in recent years.

You do realise this is a primarily a football forum and the vast majority are City fans with all that entails, I’ve had to break off from saving the planet to google dystopia. If it all goes to shit now your name will also be on the list :-)

Welcome to Israeli propaganda.

But it has no value as propaganda because it was such a ridiculous statement

Both sides are at it, and I would say Hamas is slightly better at it, that's why your news sources should be carefully picked anything on twitter (x) is automatically suspect , I try and find more sober less partisan news sources like the excellent Haaretz a left leaning Israeli newspaper

A bit more context it wasn't done by Israel. It was done by a Lebanese Falangist militia, the IDF merely stood by. Sharon was found to be 'personally responsible' by an Israeli commission.
