Fleeing Palestinians gunned down despite waving white flags, buildings flattened with whole families inside - the Israeli army has been widely condemned for its conduct in Gaza. 

Israel blames Hamas for hiding behind civilians, and for starting the conflict with its October 7th attack. 

It’s rare to hear from soldiers who’ve served on the ground, but tonight one Israeli soldier tells us that what he witnessed turned him against Israel’s war. 

He's voiced by an actor to protect his identity. And a warning you may find some images upsetting.

 

 

Started to watch then saw it was a blacked out unverified anonymous person. intermingled with a few X vids that have been floating around for months.

There's complexity.  The schism is between those who think the war started on October 7 and those who think it started before 1949. 

 

Gonna be a fun one in Chicago at the DNC national convention.

 

 

No complexity. The war started 10/7

Of course, the old "if you are against israel for anything you are antisemitic" propaganda. It doesn't work anymore.

 

There is no complexity to the Gaza conflict- one of the most advanced military's on the planet is killing thousands of women and children, starving millions, destroying public facilities like hospitals and thus denying Gazans health care, killing journalists and health/ aid workers, and doing it with the unconditional support and supply of weapons and bombs by America.

 

Biden's handlers should give him a better talking point as probably no one believes he is anything but a colluder in the atrocities going on in Gaza.

Actor @MichaelRapaport addresses Jewish crowd outside Columbia. 

“These are bullies. These are cowards. These are pathetic low life scumbags.

Agenda number 1 is to free our hostages. Agenda 1A is to eradicate Hamas to the very last one of them.”

Stands to reason, there indeed needs to be real progress in almost every aspect of neutrality. 

White House wants ‘real progress’ before US restores UNRWA funding

“In terms of our funding of UNRWA, that is still suspended. We’re gonna have to see real progress here before that gets changed,” Kirby says.

Many donor countries have resumed funding since Israel’s accusations, including Sweden, Canada, Japan, the EU and France — while others, including the United States and Britain — have continued to hold out.“We welcome the results of this report and strongly support the recommendations in the report,” Kirby says, noting that the United States also faced legal constraints in restarting its funding.

Congress passed a bill signed into law by President Joe Biden last month that blocks US funding until March 2025.

Most here have never been to Israel and see how the Palestinians are treated daily ! I am on neither side but I also tire of everything being anti Semitic if Israelis are criticised. It is not anti-Semitic, it is pro human rights. 

Why would you criticize an Israeli in London or anywhere in the UK. Would you also criticize a Palestinian or Russian or Iranian?

Just now, placeholder said:

And how does this address the issue of Israel's lack of proof for its allegation that a large proportion of UNRWA workers are actively working with Hanas?

The report does not go into that. Perhaps you will instead

U.S. Finds Some Israeli Claims on U.N. Staff Likely, Others Not
Intelligence report says Washington can’t verify Israeli assertions about widespread links to militant groups

A new U.S. intelligence assessment found it is likely that some employees of a United Nations agency that distributes aid to Palestinians took part in Hamas’s Oct. 7 assault on Israel, but says the U.S. can’t verify Israeli allegations that a larger number of U.N. workers have links to militant groups, people familiar with the report said.

Washington and other Western capitals last month suspended funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which supplies aid to Palestinians, after Israel shared findings that at least 12 Unrwa employees were connected to the series of Hamas killings and kidnappings during an attack on Israel that sparked the war in Gaza.

UNRWA neutrality must be strengthened, independent review finds

I know exactly what I am writing, thankyou.

 

 

Antisemitism, as such, is not a criminal offence. The law does not punish people for holding thoughts or beliefs, however unpleasant these may be. The same applies to Holocaust denial and criticism of Israel.

It is only when people start to act on those thoughts or beliefs that the law steps in. It punishes actions rather than attitudes.

If I was you I would read the forum rules. Noted however you antisemitic vile post.

Numerous political leaders and Western commentators have criticised Netanyahu and his far right choices for Cabinet; they do not equate to "Hamas apologists", nor does the member.

I wasn't responding to political leaders or western commentators, I do know who I was responding to and with reason,

If you can believe it! They don't even know how many hostages are alive.

Hamas says Gaza death toll reaches 34,183

https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/hamas-says-gaza-death-toll-reaches-34183/

Colonna stressed that U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres appointed the independent review panel to review UNRWA’s neutrality — not to investigate Israeli allegations that 12 UNRWA staffers participated in the Oct. 7 attacks. Guterres ordered the U.N. internal watchdog, the Office of Internal Oversight Services, known as OIOS, to conduct a separate investigation into those Israeli allegations.

“It is a separate mission. And it is not in our mandate,” Colonna said. She also said it is not surprising that Israel did not provide evidence of its allegations to the refugee agency “because it doesn’t owe this evidence during the investigation to UNRWA but to the OIOS.”

In a wide-ranging 48-page report released Monday, the independent panel said UNRWA has “robust” procedures to uphold the U.N. principle of neutrality, but it cited serious gaps in implementation, including staff publicly expressing political views, textbooks used in schools the agency runs with “problematic content” and staff unions disrupting operations. It makes 50 recommendations to improve UNRWA’s neutrality.

Because you'd rather believe the Pro Palastinian activist march organizer. What a surprise.

I find it hard to believe the pro-israel mob are trying to twist this into a win for your cause, major fail the UK public are laughing at you big time.

What mob is calling out blatant discrimination? Since when have you been speaking for what the UK public laugh at?

Your argument from page one was based on a heavily edited video with context scenes removed.

 

You know the same video you were insisting others must watch.

 

 

Link to where I would change my argument? There is nothing about it I would change, the facts remain the same and the reason the Met apologized remain the same.

You don't know how edited it was you never watched it. You don't know the 8 min clip I posted, you never watched it. You don't know the Sky News original, you never watch it.

1 minute ago, Chomper Higgot said:

The edited video, Brian, the edited video.

 

You’ve been using it as the basis of your arguments.

 

 

The basis for my argument remains the same from my first post on here. There is zero change. 

Then of course not watching the vids you wouldn't know.

Just now, Chomper Higgot said:

All In would have been informed of is the scenes manipulated by the activist(s) to remove scenes that undermined the false narrative the activist wished to portray.

 

You fell for it.

 

I didn’t.

What did I fall for exactly when I had already watched it all? The link to it is in the new OP well before it was posted on here. 

Again what did I fall for? 

Just now, NanLaew said:

 

I am wondering why you are recycling this 'openly Jewish' comment and the Prime Minister being appalled by it?

 

We've all read it, we've all watched the videos (both versions) and there's nothing new.

Perhaps this is why, in response to a post? It seems you have a problem with me responding to it? Why would that be?

40 minutes ago, Chomper Higgot said:

So it turns out that the video shot by and published by the activist group had been edited by the activist group to portray a narrative they wished to push while editing out context that was not supportive to that narrative.

 

And who was it who argued that videos are not passive evidence and are subject to exactly this kind of manipulation?

 

As so often is the case, a little time passes and more details show up.

Just now, NanLaew said:

 

So what's with the broken record?

Yes I do know the police officer did call Mr Falter 'openly Jewish' and I do know they threatened to arrest him, I posted an 8 min clip of the incident. 

 

I have no need to make any point to you, I was responding to someone else with a point to his post, do you get that part?
