You darling :) There's the Irish in you, lovely bit of Hiberno-English. Nollaig Faoi shéan is faoi shonas duit a stór. God Bless you Roz, at Christmas and through the coming year. xxx
I am a decent intelligent British person thank you.
You weren't even aware of those actual facts that I pointed out at all, were you? So it's easier to try to suggest that I don't clean my floor or whatever.
Just like that foolish hipster at my college who was banging on about " apartheid" but had nothing to say when questioned on his claims.
why does Israel defending itself upset you so much, while you ignore what's been happening in Syria?
The objection is not about Israel defending its self, the objection is to what Israel is doing and has been doing for decades. Indiscriminately bombing civilians in Gaza who all happen to have command and control centers under their tents may not be a good look but the crux is the social media posts the IDF post and the utterances of Israeli government ministers.
The IDF have filmed themselves demolishing as many civic buildings as thy can. That is schools, medical facilities, all government buildings including police stations public parks, water and electrical infrastructure and industrial sites. The IDF have posted videos of them destroying any remaining Palestinian homes they find and blowing up ambulances.
None of that is self defence. Its a planned extermination of Palestinian culture and the means of supporting life with the intention of forcing people to flee.
That is genocide.
The current events in Syria, though triggered by the Palestinian war, have nothing to do with the genocide being carried out by Israel. Valid and verifiable criticism of Israel cannot be negated by claiming immunity because others are as bad or worse than Israel however if you are happy to include Israel in the same category as Assad's Syria Or China be my guest.
The Palestinian population of Israel had no choice other than be included in Israel where they have been subjected to second class citizenship. The Palestinian population under occupation are treated to a version of apartheid as evidenced by the dual legal system Israel runs. One for Jews another for everyone else.
@Barney . Thank you for that . I can deal.with facts etc., something to think about and investigate myself. Although I might not agree with some of your less factual claims.
Stop projecting. It is you who drink every day to forget your lousy life with your pathetic family of losers about whom you told us a few stories in the past. It is easy to become a drunk living in such an environment.
" current events in Syria because of bad Israel".
Stop twisting. Barney didn`t say such words. He said more important ones.
None of that is self defence. Its a planned extermination of Palestinian culture and the means of supporting life with the intention of forcing people to flee. That is genocide.
Holy words.
Don`t mind that person. She is embittered with her pathetic existence, that is why she comes here to let the bile off to avoid drowning in it.
Excuses, excuses. Are you going to flood the forum with your bile all day long on this Boxing Day???? Is that what you normally do at home?? Can`t you do it into the sewer???
You come to the forum at Christmas coz it is the only place where you can have contact with decent intelligent people, compared to your loser family. Ha!!! However, you should do as we do here, instead of spewing your bile like crazy.
Barney, I don't even know you, But your one-sided indigestion is missing the point, big time. You and your liberal friends display an amazing ability to block, refuse to acknowledge the naked truths. Points you are desperately trying to make sound painfully ignorant. First of all Israelis are trying to protect women, children, and old you destroy the nest of inhuman rats at their favorite hiding places, schools, hospitals, and tunnels, Bombing the desert won't do the trick. Or follow your philosophy and accept rapes and murder of innocent civilians and inhalation of your ancestral lands ( from the river to the sea) . Where do you think Israelis should live if not in their little, ancient sliver of land? A balanced approach has less chance of success than the snowball in hell. There are way too many of them for a one-for-one exchange. Millions and millions square miles of Arab , unused land and and not one attempt to to find place for their Palestinian brothers.Why Barney? Their hate and griveces have no end, after thousands of years, hatred shines bright, and people like you are providing oxygen to the flames.
