  1. Yes, October 7 targeted civilians – but Israel has also killed thousands of Palestinian civilians in its own assaults. Extremists on both sides, not just Hamas, have murdered peace-seekers – remember Rabin was assassinated by an Israeli. Blaming only Palestinians ignores Israel’s decades of occupation and collective punishment that fuel this cycle.
  2. Here’s another but you’ll no doubt any he’s old.
  3. How sick - saying it’s ok if they are disabled.
  4. Exactly, and they better get used to it because of what their govt is doing, You say nothing when they’re not Jews. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dofy07NB4mE
  5. After Hamas’s 2006 electoral victory (in an election international observers called fair), Israel imposed a blockade rather than exploring political engagement. Collective punishment replaced diplomacy.
  6. Do you think Israeli civilian causualties are worth more than Palestinian ones?
  7. And maybe something to do with IDF killing 40 today. This has become such a normal occurrence it doesn’t make headlines. https://aje.io/lhneh5?update=3933696
  8. Even during and after Oslo, Israel rapidly expanded settlements in the West Bank. Land meant to be part of a future Palestinian state was being carved up, making negotiations look like a cover for permanent occupation. The Oslo process promised Palestinians progress toward statehood, but instead they saw endless checkpoints, restrictions on movement, and no end to military control. The Second Intifada did not come out of nowhere. It erupted after years of frustration, stalled talks, and Ariel Sharon’s provocative visit to the Temple Mount/Haram al-Sharif in 2000. A true settlement requires accountability on both sides – not just demands for Palestinian surrender.
  9. Ha ha, “retaliation”. Do you watch the news on TV?
  10. Hmmm, scary. “and Energy Minister Israel Katz have made public statements expressing their aim to deprive civilians in Gaza of food, water and fuel” https://www.hrw.org/news/2023/12/18/israel-starvation-used-weapon-war-gaza
  11. No, just drunken football hooligans wanting confrontation. Ireland support Palestine.
  12. I highly commend the courage and civic responsibility shown by everyone who participated in the London demonstration, standing up peacefully for what they believe in despite the risk of arrest. It takes remarkable bravery to voice dissent and challenge laws that you feel unjust, and such actions are a reminder of the vital role of public protest in a democratic society. At the same time, we must also remember those who have been silenced online for speaking out against Israeli war crimes. Social media bans and censorship serve as reminders that standing up for justice often comes with personal cost. I honor the resilience of these individuals and urge continued solidarity with those advocating for human rights, wherever they are.
  13. You forget to mention the 20,000 Palestinian children who Israel killed. Have you any sympathy for them?
  14. Yes he did. Up to you if you believe it or not. I suggest you search in the Royal Gazette. Ministerial rule No. 27/2546 on June 27 2003 and came into effect a few months later.
  15. Gaza has not been “totally free” since 2006. Israel and Egypt have maintained blockades restricting goods, movement, and resources. Rockets from Gaza are often called “terrorist attacks,” by Israel but they are responses to ongoing occupation, blockade, and military incursions. The rest of your post I have no time to respond to and doubt you really believe it.
  16. Taskin did re 2005. A look at the amount of Thai citizenship approvals under Taksin, his Sister and daughter compared to Prayud, a real Thai. Anutin was minister of interior and signed off none.
  17. One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter. Another solution is to relocate Israelis to USA, who are allowing the war crimes to happen.
  18. Yes it was, but not a genocide. The US have a history of such crimes, look at Iraq, Afghanistan, Cambodia, Korea.
  19. They don’t need to be taught, they are reminded daily by blockades, attacks, etc.
  20. Chinese Thai PM raised visas from 500 - 1900. Raised PR from 19 to 190k.
  21. Reminds me of the man who ate his own penis.
  22. Using the word “woes” to describe what’s happening in Gaza minimizes the scale of the crisis. It makes mass killings, displacement, and destruction sound like minor troubles rather than what many human rights organizations and observers are calling genocide or ethnic cleansing. Language matters-calling it “woes” obscures the severity of the situation.
