Straight talking? Hate mongering racist scum. I brought up Powell because Farange admired him.

All made possible by Netanyahu.

Possibly, the Israelis have killed far more unarmed civilians than Hamas.

When I did math 1.4 was a plural number. It's a long time however you cut it.

Israeli war crimes

My prediction is that Trump gets the nomination and Biden immediately announces he won't run, citing distraction from the Hunter Biden witch hunt and pardons Hunter on the way out, leaving Trump to be thrashed by whoever gets the Dem nomination.

We're witnessing it now

Farage is a well-known admirer of Enoch Powell, who is infamous for the “Rivers of Blood” speech. Farage formerly had a column at Breitbart, the far-right, anti-immigrant “news” outlet, formerly owned by his longtime ally Steve Bannon and formerly headed in the UK by his ex-aide Raheem Kassam. https://hopenothate.org.uk/chapter/who-is-nigel-farage/

Give a far right racist a break?

I was responding to a similarly rhetorical question about personally witnessing a Hamas attack. The probability of the scenario I described not happening? NIL.

Allergic to google? It seems some here aren't well informed about their dear leader. For 14 years, Netanyahu's policy was to keep Hamas in power; the pogrom of October 7, 2023, helps the Israeli prime minister preserve his own rule Much ink has been spilled describing the longtime relationship – rather, alliance – between Benjamin Netanyahu and Hamas. And still, the very fact that there has been close cooperation between the Israeli prime minister (with the support of many on the right) and the fundamentalist organization seemingly evaporated from most of the current analyses – everyone’s talking about “failures,” “mistakes” and “contzeptziot” (fixed conceptions). https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-10-20/ty-article-opinion/.premium/a-brief-history-of-the-netanyahu-hamas-alliance/0000018b-47d9-d242-abef-57ff1be90000 For years, the various governments led by Benjamin Netanyahu took an approach that divided power between the Gaza Strip and the West Bank — bringing Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to his knees while making moves that propped up the Hamas terror group. The idea was to prevent Abbas — or anyone else in the Palestinian Authority’s West Bank government — from advancing toward the establishment of a Palestinian state. https://www.timesofisrael.com/for-years-netanyahu-propped-up-hamas-now-its-blown-up-in-our-faces/ Since the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, the Gulf state of Qatar has come under fire by Israeli officials, American politicians and media outlets for sending hundreds of millions of dollars in aid to Gaza, which is governed by the Palestinian militant group. But all that happened with Israel’s blessing. https://edition.cnn.com/2023/12/11/middleeast/qatar-hamas-funds-israel-backing-intl/index.html

I can see what happened to those who did? Why didn't you ask Nick Carter if he'd had close close combat with Hamas?

For decades Russia's and Israel's interest aligned in supporting Hamas. Stop trying to rewrite history.

Gee, even Lavrov is the voice of balance here. After the phone call between Netanyahu and Putin, Russia’s foreign minister Sergei Lavrov has, for the first time, condemned Hamas’s attack, recognising it as an act of terrorism. At the same time, Lavrov also accused Israel of indiscriminately shelling Gaza.

Did you ever stand in a food line with your whole family and watch a 500 pound bomb falling out of the sky toward you?

Before the war in Ukraine, Israel and Russia enjoyed positive strategic relations. The bond and trust between Putin and Netanyahu had allowed Israel to operate against Hezbollah and Iranian targets within Syria and Iran, actions that necessitated quiet consent from Russia. https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/netanyahu-has-finally-realised-russia-is-no-friend-of-israel/

You were overtly skeptical of his words. One is entitled to "infer" that you don't believe him.

I don't think the Hamas terrorists cared about the consequences. They didn't believe they were going to live long anyway. It's the same mentality as a mass shooter. They think they are doing it for the greater good.

The foreign ministers said: "Israel has the right to defend itself but, in doing so, it must abide by international humanitarian law. "Israel will not win this war if its operations destroy the prospect of peaceful co-existence with Palestinians. They have a right to eliminate the threat posed by Hamas.

Quoting the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem is not trolling. You insinuated he was lying, not me.

Now your conflation education with genetics. You'r etrying to duck out from yoiur "It's in their blood" claim with an irrelevant defection. The suggestion that any race is different in a way that affects their social behaviour is racist.

You're insinuation that the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem was lying about this or that he wasn't certain of his facts is just excusing Israel. You go on further to incredulously suggest snipers may be to blame. It's utterly disgusting.

But he has a flappy mouth? It was probably a martian. Do Hamas snipers go about sniping old women?

The Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem isn't a credible witness? You sound skeptical that this is factually reported. Or maybe just blinded in one eye.

We can hope there is a just outcome from this incident. One can wonder what might not have occurred had there been no video. Israel has said it is opening a military police investigation into the killing of two Palestinians in the West Bank after an Israeli human rights group posted videos that appeared to show Israeli troops killing the men – one who was incapacitated and the second unarmed – during a military raid in a West Bank refugee camp. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/dec/16/west-bank-israel-opens-probe-after-videos-appear-to-show-troops-shooting-palestinians-at-close-range
