  1. So you support Israel but not the government?
  2. You're avin a laff. They are currently invading/annexing Lebanon, atwar with Iran after an unwarranted attack, genocide Gaza, and according to far right ministers want parts of Jordan, Egypt, Saudi, and more. Peace my bottom. Do you support Smotrich? I guess you must. Smotrich claimed that Israel would expand “little by little” and eventually encompass all Palestinian territories as well as Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Syria, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia. https://www.middleeasteye.net/news/smotrich-calls-israels-borders-extend-damascus
  3. No, but I've noticed none of them post anymore. Watched a Thai woman's vdo about how Thailand are now worried about these people trying to occupy Thailand. I'm almost certain there will be deadly attacks on areas in Thailand, maybe Khao San Road, Pai, or probably in the South, Phuket.
  4. https://aseannow.com/topic/1390981-lebanese-struggle-to-survive-sky-news/ Watch this short video.
  5. That's the majority of the world. How can people with more as ls NOT demonize Israel as they're breaking international laws, genociding, occupying etc openly, arrogantly, with the world watching. Aggressive, terrorist state.
  6. Much more than one!!!!! An overwhelming majority of Jewish Israelis agree with the idea of there being “no innocents in Gaza.” 64% of the Israeli public agree with this statement, almost two out of three people. But it is actually considerably higher among Jewish Israelis, because that number is weighted by Palestinians with Israeli citizenship. Palestinians make up roughly 17% of the Israeli population and 92% of them oppose the statement, so that leaves Jewish Israelis with overwhelming support.1 https://mondoweiss.net/2025/07/poll-overwhelming-majority-of-jewish-israelis-share-genocidal-belief-there-are-no-innocent-people-in-gaza/
  7. These planes are used to carry 20,000 lb bombs that were used in 'precision' strikes in Gaza, killing 50,000 women and children. I'm embarrassed to be English, with my government being complicit to what looks like a similar thing happening in Iran.
  8. With respect, Hezbollah didn’t just appear for no reason - they were formed in response to the 1982 Lebanon War, when Israeli forces occupied Lebanon and stayed in the south for years. There was also a U.S.-led multinational force on the ground at the time, so from a local perspective this looked like heavy foreign military involvement in Lebanon. In that situation, it’s not surprising that groups emerged claiming to resist it. Israel are now wanting to annex Southern Lebanon https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/israeli-minister-calls-annexation-southern-lebanon-2026-03-23/
  9. This thread is certainly NOT about what you falsely say -total, expected deflection as usual. You drag in an unrelated attack in the UK to muddy the waters when the actual issue is a terrorist Israeli state killing over 40 innocent paramedics in Lebanon. That’s not “context” - it’s total distraction. And spare me the “Western democracy” line. Western democracy - my bottom, it's in Asia. And a bigoted slip there by throwing in that Hezbollah is Islamic...Bombing medical workers and civilians isn’t democracy, it’s brutality. Calling Hezbollah terrorists doesn’t magically excuse every international war crime Israel does. Your country may call Hezbollah terrorists but most don't - funny how this “everyone agrees” narrative only seems to include a handful of Western governments. Here in Thailand - where we actually live - Hezbollah isn’t even proscribed as a terrorist organisation. Same goes for Malaysia, Myanmar, Vietnam, Indonesia, the Philippines, Cambodia, Laos… and then you’ve got China and India thrown in for good measure(that's nearly 3 billion souls!) But sure, let’s pretend there’s some universal consensus, when in reality most of the world’s population lives in countries that don’t follow that line. It’s almost as if the “global agreement” isn’t quite as global as you’d like it to sound. If anything, this constant pivoting just proves you don’t want to engage with the reality of what’s happening. Israel is acting like a terrorist state, and pointing elsewhere every time it’s criticised doesn’t change that.
  10. This looks like the start of another Genocide that happened in Gaza, with Hezbollah desperately trying to hold back the IDF. Before the usual culprits claim Hezbollah are terrorists, I'll remind you that only 15-20 countries proscribe them as that, so over 150 don't. They are legitimate freedom fighters and allies of Iran This woman says, "Hezbolla are the only ones standing between them and the Israeli troops, without them, we'd all have been killed already and Israel would have already taken Lebanon"
  11. I notice you don't say Judaism and Islam. Anyway, you're wrong, there is no free speech in US when it comes to Israel.
  12. Huh, I think you're getting your accounts mixed up.
  13. Are you seriously trying to equate Islam with terrorism? You and eloquent pilgrim are very alike one would almost think you were the same person.
