Middle East Conflict

[N1985]

So much fucking misinformation these days its terrible, its getting impossible to know what to believe. Im getting to the point where I just ignore everything that takes place further than a mile from my house, would be so much easier

Easiest way pal. How people cope trawling the news, Facefuck and Shitter all day in beyond me. No wonder mental health everywhere is in the bin.

So Biden has given his Unequivocal support to Israel. Carry on bombing and Murdering.

Sure or you want it to be?

I'm 100% sure Israel are committing War Crimes, Yes. As has been laid out by the UN.

It's so sad that he has wasted an opportunity to talk peace and bang heads together, it's a gift for the extremists on both sides and terrible for the ordinary people caught up in this nightmare

You've skewed your reply. I was asking if the other poster you were speaking on behalf of was sure, not you.

18:59 Gaza time palestinan bomb owned Palestinian hospital
Shame that b b c
The first to jump to conclusions
Even when they saw the truth still no apology

Analysis: The Arab and Islamic world is seething - containing the conflict will not be an easy task for Biden​

By Alex Rossi, international correspondent in Lebanon
The Arab and Islamic world is seething. It is hard to not think there will be a significant reaction to the hospital blast, and to the humanitarian catastrophe that Israeli bombing is compounding further in Gaza.
Any explanation put forward by the Israelis will simply not be believed - so the sting of what's happened will not be removed easily.
Already we are seeing widespread protests in the major cities. The question is whether they will spread and become a daily occurrence.
The anti-Israel sentiment is fused with anti-American feeling as well.
US President Joe Biden's visit to Tel Aviv and a key ally to show solidarity could not have come at a worse time. It will be interpreted as rank hypocrisy.
For the Arab world, Israel's never-ending occupation and apartheid regime is the cause of the current crisis.
People are asking here: "Why is it okay for Israel to occupy Palestinian land but it's not okay for Russia to occupy Ukraine?"
They also note that many of the bombs flattening Gaza were made in the US - this already doesn't look like a local war for many.
If the US trashed its reputation in the region by invading Iraq, this is making things much worse.
The question for the Mr Biden's administration is how can it contain the Gaza situation from becoming a regional conflict? And that's not easy when you're not seen as an honest broker.

It isn’t just the US who have satellites and robust intelligence gathering services. Depending upon which side of the fence you place yourself, if the proof can be derived, will it change the minds of those who blame Israel? I doubt it. I have been reading this thread and even on here there are posters who seem to have decided what happened without evidence.

It’s a time for seeking the truth. In war, as we all know, truth is the first casualty and people will be swayed by their political views and how they want it to be.

Whatever the truth, for me, making civilians the victims, on both sides, will only widen the gulf, mitigating any hope for peace. When Israel make their move with a ground, air and sea assault, where do the women, children, elderly go? How do they avoid carnage if they have nowhere to go? Mass civilian casualties will trigger retaliation from both groups called terrorist and indeed Arab states will get involved too, being forced to by the outrage of their populations.

It’s looking grim and as I said before on another post, the invasion hasn’t even started and that to me will be the trigger to a wider conflict.

Out of interest who else has satellites that are observing this mess. The Chinese presumably. The Russians , Any of the Arab states. If one or more of those independently stated who was to blame it may difuse the situation if found to be a Palestinian terrorist group.
