Sigh, the RFA Argus (A135) is a medical evacuation ship. 

 

[referance] RFA Argus is a Primary Casualty Receiving Ship of the Royal Fleet Auxiliary. With a 100-bed medical complex on board, she acts as a floating medical facility during times of crisis or war. 

Yes did Israel lob a missile into a hospital in Gaza, and was Gaza being bombed daily like now before the 7th ?

The apparent hypocrisy is indeed striking. You've consistently ignored to condemn the butchering of 4,000 children in just three weeks by the sh... on the other side, yet this young girl's tragic death has managed to touch your sense of humanity.

 

In contrast, I genuinely express my deep sadness over her passing.

 

I'm currently searching the internet for more details, as it does seem highly improbable that Hamas would target her, or any other hostage given their potential value in future prisoner swap negotiations.

 

I wouldn't be surprised if it later comes to light that she was a victim of an Israeli airstrike. However, if Hamas killed her intentionally while in their custody, I would condemn such crime without any reservation as my feelings and actions are not motivated by any ideology as some Zionists here.

 

This is of great interest to me.

How do people allow themselves to be so blindingly one sided.

 

Both events, the death of a single innocent young lady at the hands of Hamas and the 4,000 deaths of innocent children at the hands of the Israeli's should sicken all people, yet, somehow, there are those who can overlook one or the other tragedy simply because the murderers are on their side.

 

What hope has mankind given the ease at which so many of us can so readily accept atrocities being committed against those with whom we disagree.

And yet despite the emotional outrage and political dishonesty over allegations of  40 infants  etc no real evidence was/s ever been produced.

Objections to the toll on  Gaza infant and child  deaths  has been made very evident  by independent  agencies to a sum many multiples  more.

Your  stance is untenable and will be identified as such 

 

Yes, we all agree that the death toll on Gaza is horrendous. It is time the Palestinians take the moral high-ground and release the hostages and initiate a ceasefire. 

 

How many more Jews have to die before their bloodlust is satisfied?

Please explain how anyone seeing a bomb explode can tell that the person that fired it, did so indiscriminately? 

 

If you are going to make stuff up, try to make stuff up that is at least possible. 

You think all the missiles are precision weapons? When a missile gets fired into a crowd, someone might get hurt.

Israeli's aren't really dying too much at the moment though, are they?

 

The Israeli death toll reported by Israeli authorities has not increased since at least Oct. 16, hovering around 1,400 people killed, with more than 5,400 injured.

You don't create the conditions where an entire people see their only viable option for some sort of future is to turn to terrorism.

You don't steal other people's land.

You don't operate an apartheid system of government.

You don't have a Prime Minister that supports a terrorist group to thwart a two state solution

You don't ignore international laws.

 

That's how.

 

 

Create the condition how? What prevented the Palestinians from embracing peace and development rather than rejectionism and terrorism?

They could have opted for that since 1947.

Hamas is still on that page.

He is either stupid or ignorant put Rockets into a built-up area that will be targeted if civilians are close they should have moved away like the advice given. Jesus if a small fire starts you do what put it out or get the extinguisher house to prevent your house from burning down. And before you mention kids and familys they knew Hamas stored Rockets nearby.

It hit a load of people. Was it a precision missile missing it's target? Did it get deliberately aimed into the people? Or was it simply bad luck it hurt people; maybe really aimed at a field somewhere!

Few pages back all the details needed, no my job to serve you information when its all there. A hint when searching for you though. It was a Hamas rocket killing their own

The consistent use of the label "antisemitic" to accuse numerous individuals in this thread has unfortunately diluted its intended impact.

 

I'm fortunate not to find myself in the position of Mel Gibson or any other Hollywood stars or prominent politicians who often must vigorously defend themselves. I take such accusation as a badge of honor when it’s being uttered by the likes of you.

 

Antisemitism in fact, has seen a significant surge around the word due to crimes committed by the unethical army of Israel since the commencement of the genocide in Gaza.

Just yesterday, an alarming incident unfolded when a crowd forcibly entered the Russian region of Dagestan at the airport, specifically looking for Israeli passengers.

 

The world's attention is undeniably focused on Israel's daily crimes not only in Gaza but also in the West Bank, and the global outcry against these actions is growing stronger by the day.

 

So go and blame the criminals in Tel Aviv for this antisemitic surge against innocent Jews worldwide and stop misusing this label.

What a load of total disingenuous garbage.

Your rhetoric is vile and your prejudice is transparent.

Jews were barbarically  massacred on October 7, so now naturally the one and only ever tiny Jewish state in the world is going after the terrorists responsible so they can move back and live in peace, and the likes of you blame the Jews for defending themselves  Outrageous.

An example of why it is necessary for a strong Israel to exist.

Also stop lying..

The lynch mob in Russia is going after Jews, not Israelis.

Basically, yes.

But more than getting a reaction, the intention is to convey my personal moral position.

Hiding behind technicalities when children are being blown to pieces is just not my style.

 

The main difference with the use of terms such as apartheid, genocide and war crimes (no need for quotation marks) when discussing Israel is that they are pretty much main stream accepted facts. Google Israel and apartheid for example and you'll get over 29,000,000 results.

 

In short:

Carpet bombing = hyperbole

Apartheid, genocide and war crimes = reality

 

Waffle.

Within a day you're bound to go off on one about the importance of 'accuracy' etc.

When it suits, this is an explained away non-issue though.

Basically, you admit to pushing propaganda.

An example of indiscriminate bombing would be the hundreds of missiles Palestine fires at Israel from hospitals, mosques, apartment buildings, schools and whatnot.

Israel certainly might have committed war crimes in this war.

So far, though, it's allegations rather than facts.

Ignoring everything that led to the events of October 7th is absurd and doesn't make sense.

 

What happened prior to that date provides context for the events that unfolded.

 

You can choose to disregard the context if you wish, but doing so will not give you a clear view of the entire picture. As the head of the UN stated, the events on the 7th of October did not occur in a vacuum.

 

Look at the OP.

Look up for numerous moderators posts on this topic.

The scope of this one is limited.

 

It's not a history class, but a current event news topics.

I'm not making anything up YT. I am listening to the hourly reports on TNT and they say it is discriminate missile firing.

 

I don't think the IDF would deliberately aim rockets at women and kids, knowing the Hamas fighters they are after, are underground.
