  1. What a stupid thing to say, it’s like saying why didn’t Argentina, Italy, Mexico, etc help the IRA and take the Irish into their countries as they’re Catholic. your hatred for one religion shows the kind of person you really are, full of hate.
  2. Investigation, my bottom. The terrorist IDF animals support the settler violence.
  3. I can’t believe you’ve stooped this low.
  4. According to Oor Johnny, they must have converted to Islam. Same as these Scottish scumbags. https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2009/may/07/scottish-paedophile-ring-guilty-child-abuse
  5. Oh, right - silly me. You’ve only lived here for years, bought property, and settled down, so of course you’re not an immigrant. The magic words “Non-Immigrant” on your visa clearly make you a visiting angel just passing through indefinitely. The immigration office may call your visa “non-immigrant,” but in plain English, you’re still an immigrant - someone who’s settled in another country.
  6. Thanks, my point exactly. It's sad seeing immigrants here being so racist to immigrants in London. I suspect Johnny F has been brainwashed by Tommy Robinson.
  7. Disgusting, you, as usual, are trying to turn this into an anti Islam thing when the OP is about a black British.
  8. Excellent, eloquent post. Racism must be pointed out.
  9. Are you really saying that they are more frequent knife crimes BECAUSE they are black? What an utterly racist post. How about restricting black immigrants and only accept white ones?
  10. What facts? Here's a fact, when there's a black or British Muslim committing a crime you see pout as this racial stuff, which does NOT help to stop crime. Seriously, you sound like my ex colleague who boasted about being a member of Combat 18 and had a Thai girlfriend. Would you like it if you were tarred by the same brush by Thai people because of Badly behaved Brits here? So according to you knife crimes is a black problem, please show this fact. The biggest knife problem I know of was in Glasgow in the early 90s, with 4 people stabbed daily, and definitely not a black problem. You're turning a non racial problem into a hate filled racial thing with MULTIPLE posts on such threads. Correlation is not causation. Yes, some groups appear overrepresented in certain crime statistics. But that reflects complex socio-economic factors, not inherent criminality. For instance, areas of high deprivation often have more violent crime. Ethnic composition correlates with deprivation in some urban areas, which can lead to misleading assumptions. Is a guy moving to England from Pakistan for work and expat or immigrant? I wish ALL illegal immigrants were put on a boat and pointed in the direction of another country but legal immigrants like you or I, or the British accused in the OP have every right to remain. You are an immigrant, get over it.
  11. You are proud of turning a blind eye to international war crimes? No need for any more words. I lost nothing, why do you say that?
  12. He is not fleeing. His race was given, black British man.
  13. What a stupid thing to say, are you actually justifying ethnic cleansing?
  14. You are a racist. The UK has grown more diverse, and this has brought enormous benefit in terms of culture, economy, innovation and social vitality. When you blame “immigrants” or “Muslims” as a group for crime, you betray the principle that individuals are responsible for their actions - not whole ethnicities or religions. Encouraging integration, opportunity, fairness and justice is what makes a society safe, not scapegoating. As an immigrant yourself, your hypocrisy is outstanding. Crime is overwhelmingly committed by British-born citizens. Poverty, inequality, exclusion matter far more in many cases than immigration status. People who feel excluded or disadvantaged may turn to crime; addressing that is far more productive than blame.
  15. How do these terrorists get away with their actions? They are intent to destroy all life in Gaza and destroy all buildings making it unliveable. Anyone who turns a blind eye to this like @Jingthing @Yagoda @Evil Penevil and other pro Israeli unconditionally should be ashamed of their stance of supporting these vile terrorists. https://aje.io/5s4zat At least two people including a child have been killed in an Israeli drone strike east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, according to Al Jazeera reporters in the besieged Palestinian territory. Al Jazeera correspondents have confirmed Israeli forces are blowing up residential blocks in central Gaza as well. Satellite images and field footage show large swathes of neighbourhoods reduced to rubble.
  16. Israel kill Palestinians for fun, justify by saying they thought they were Hamas, who are not all terrorists, and when the shoot non Hamas NEVER discipline those soldiers. For example, even the soldiers who killed aid workers, lied about it after they were found out hiding the evidence by burying their vehicles, these animals are still free to carry on killing innocent people. If so many thousand were not being killed it would be farcical.
  17. @Jingthing I'd like to see your reply to this.
  18. Even if you did support Hamas, that's your perogative. It's only western countries, allied with Israel that call them terrorists. One man's terrorist.......
  19. Indeed, and they are succeeding. They have broken all rules so should forfeit their right to their own country. They will not be content until they have ALL of Palestine.
  20. In the 90s and 00s, women would stand up for kids on buses.
  21. Of course they are freedom fighters, whereas Israel is fighting for land. Most of the world do NOT call freedom fighters in Palestine terrorists, most of the world call Israel terrorists. You are blinkered as you are Jewish and probably only watch Western, especially US news. As you know, the USA foreign policy on Middle East is defined by Jewish Americans like Miriam Adelson.
  22. Israel has repeatedly violated border agreements and UN resolutions since its establishment. For example: Israel has occupied and annexed Palestinian territories, including the West Bank and East Jerusalem, in breach of the 1949 Armistice Agreements and subsequent UN resolutions. Gaza has been blockaded since 2007, restricting movement and basic rights, which violates international humanitarian law Settlements continue to expand on occupied land despite repeated UN Security Council resolutions condemning them (e.g., UNSC Resolution 2334). Military operations breach ceasefire agreements, such as those brokered after past conflicts in 2008–2009, 2014, 2021 and today. Recognizing Israel’s right to exist does not justify ignoring decades of documented violations of borders, agreements, and international law. These are not “lies” - they are recorded facts confirmed by UN reports and international monitoring bodies. As a Zionist, you'll probably deny these facts
  23. the chaotic hours of October 7 2023 massacre, when militants from Hamas breached the border into Israel and committed horrifying violence, many around the world,including myself, felt immediate outrage and horror. At the time, media coverage and political statements (including from Joe Biden) amplified allegations of beheaded babies and mass-rape. These claims shaped public sentiment strongly, but many of the more extreme versions lack reliable verification. As the war has unfolded in Gaza, serious questions have arisen about the actions of Israel Defense Forces (IDF) and the government of Israel. For example, the so-called Hannibal Directive - a military protocol originally intended to prevent Israeli soldiers being taken hostage - appears to have been invoked on October 7, despite its being formally ended in 2016. Investigations by the newspaper Haaretz and others found orders such as “Hannibal at Erez” and “not a single vehicle can return to Gaza” under which Israeli vehicles (some carrying hostages) were targeted. https://www.timesofisrael.com/idf-officers-invoked-defunct-hannibal-protocol-during-oct-7-fighting-report/?utm_source=chatgpt.com While exact numbers remain unclear, some credible sources argue that the directive’s implementation may have contributed to the deaths of Israelis on that day - civilians and soldiers alike. https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/israel-deployed-controversial-hannibal-directive-during-hamas-attack-report-6057961?utm_source=chatgpt.com Similarly, the operation known as Operation Shield and Arrow in May 2023 is rarely discussed but is an example of how Israeli military actions preceded the October escalation. In this five-day campaign against Palestinian Islamic Jihad in Gaza, the IDF struck senior commanders and hundreds of targets. Palestinian casualties numbered at least thirty-plus and crossing closures resumed; one Israeli civilian was killed by a rocket during the operation. These operations fuel the broader context of an ongoing siege and occupation in which Palestinians have for decades experienced systematic restrictions: on movement, on land rights (including settlements in the West Bank), and human-rights groups now describe the situation as apartheid. Thus, while the October 7 assault is rightly condemned, it cannot obscure the larger pattern: Israeli policies that lock the people of Gaza into an increasingly enclosed and militarised region, detain thousands without trial, build hundreds of settlements on occupied land, restrict movement via checkpoints and roads designated for Jewish Israelis, appropriate Palestinian resources, and respond with overwhelming force when protests emerge. The Hamas attack is neither an excuse nor a justification for this long-standing system of oppression. If one is to understand the world’s current turn of sentiment - away from Israel and toward solidarity with Palestinians - it is because the broader injustice is no longer hidden. When international organisations and media repeatedly report that Israeli fire kills more Palestinians than militant rockets kill Israelis, when a major power (the United States) backs Israel unquestioningly, the accusations of double standards become unavoidable. Real justice demands that we recognise both: the horror of terrorist atrocities and the decades of structural violence and occupation. In short: supporting the rights of Palestinians, condemning the oppression they endure, and seeking accountability from Israel does not mean excusing Hamas’s brutal assault. Neither does recognising the terror of October 7 contradict the fact that the state of Israel under its far-right government is itself now widely viewed around the world as a terrorising occupier. To remain silent - or to excuse one side while focusing only on the other -is to abandon the possibility of justice, human dignity, and the rule of international law.
