Middle East Conflict

Is it true to say that Israel are slowly just stealing the land around them? I mean I see all those videos showing the ever-decreasing Palestinian land but is it that true? Is there another side to that?

Yes it is a fact that settlers settled on land illegally seek to expand illegal settlements daily

bear in mind this pre-dates 7/10 by over a week

‘A new Nakba’: settler violence forces Palestinians out of West Bank villages

We are friends with Israel

Why?

Vanessa Feltz speaks some facts here and some that are still reputed but sadly she reflects the Israeli/Jewish point of view which will not accept the facts in the counter argument Peter Oborne makes. Until there is some acceptance of what has gone on since the IDF counter attack then any interviews from people who only want to stop the killings are pointless

Just to clarify, because one set of war crimes hasn’t been headline news means that all other war crimes should be “ignored” too?

Is that your reasoning?

That’s not what I’m saying at all - no idea how you’ve managed to pull that one out.

A previous poster mentioned turkey speaking out - no one should be listening to them after the genocide they have committed.

I’m saying the atrocities that countries such as turkey commit don’t seem to get as much attention. It’s the same with things that have happened in Yemen and Syria. Don’t think that’s too controversial really.

So it is that they can’t speak out on war crimes because they commit them too.

Guess we’ve committed our fair share to, so should have no voice either.

Are there many puritan countries left able to speak?

Alright then so if isis or other terrorist groups speak out on war crimes you’d be all for that? Russia as well? And you’d listen to what they have to say?

Of course we have done some terrible things, but I’m not listening to what turkey have to say after they have committed genocide and committed acts some would say are just as bad, if not worse than Israel. I’m talking specifically about turkey, not every country in the world, ever.

The post I was replying to was about turkey if you go back a few pages. If you want to endorse what a corrupt dictatorship in turkey have to say you go for it. You can use it in your next argument like a previous poster did.

I just wanted to get back to highlighting the citizens of Palestine being murdered indiscriminately, rather than have a huge debate on who can mention a war crime.
