Don’t confuse criticism of the Israeli government with anti-semitism. Otherwise you’re just saying “Israel can do no wrong, even if they’re doing war crimes.”
Maybe if terrorists didn’t hide behind human shields, Israel would’ve been accused of far less war crimes. Grabbing a toddler after setting off a bomb and murdering a crowd is basically Hamas’ strategy.
Maybe if Israel hadn’t been doing everything they could to drive Palestinians from their land for decades they wouldn’t have helped grow these terrorist groups that are lashing out at them.
Tit for tat ever since… with Israel receiving plenty of international support and an Iron Curtain supplied by the US.
It doesn’t matter if Mike and Steve have been going at each other since Elementary school. If Mike grows up to be Mike Tyson and Steve grows up to be an accountant, then Mike is the bigger asshole if he keeps coming around to punch Steve in the face, and screams “See? He deserves it! Both Sides!” if Steve gets lucky sucker punch in on occasion.
All I see from you is pro terrorist bullshit. Fuck Hamas and I hope Israel kills every Hamas sack of shit out there. Hamas at this point could do the right thing and surrender, and spare the civilians, but they’re too cowardly to do that.
All you see from me is Anti Israeli Government bullshit. When the Israeli government spends decades committing crimes against humanity the end result is not a surprise. When no one listens to the suffering of Palestinians what options are they left with?
I call bullshit, on several fronts with what you said. Decades of crimes against humanity is unsubstantiated. What you call crimes against humanity is likely debatable at best and an outright lie at the worst. Hamas is a terrorist organization, and I agree with the sentiment that “Palestinians” are an invention from the last century. You have people who moved to the area under the Ottoman Empire, and the world decided back in 1947 that Israel shall again be a nation. When you have the despicable acts of the PLO and extremist organizations spring up from what appeared to be peaceful coexistence, this narrative about the light of Palestinians and the “freedom fighters” who cut infants’ heads off can go pound sand.
I don’t want the innocents harmed either, but I do believe Hamas must be exterminated. If that means flattening a building that they’re hiding in and using human shields, so be it. The people who support Hamas are making their bed, and we should not be surprised by the humanitarian crisis going on when the cowardly Hamas militants hide behind innocent families.
Exterminate Hamas, that’s my take on it. Don’t like it? Too fucking bad, it’s going to happen anyway and you can wring your lying hands all you want.
“Palestinians” are an invention from the last century.
the world decided back in 1947 that Israel shall again be a nation.
So Israel is an invention from the last century?
If that means flattening a building that they’re hiding in and using human shields, so be it.
If there’s a hostage situation and someone on the sidelines is screaming “Shoot the hostages! As long as you kill the criminals!” That person is a fucking monster. (And possibly racist as fuck if those hostages are a minority.)
One that was internationally recognized and awarded sovereignty. Palestine was never a nation, and was agreed to be assimilated into Israel while retaining their culture and identity. It was when coexistence wasn’t enough and the insane extremists decided Jews should be eradicated.
You’re ignoring several realities about the cowardice of Hamas and the shitty situation they PUT their civilians in. Nobody wants to “shoot the hostage” as you so ignorantly put it. The only monsters here are the people saying anything positive or justifiable about Hamas’ actions.
It’s not the criticism of Israel government that makes this antisemitism, but the utter lack of criticism of Hamas. You want a ceasefire? Start with demanding the release of the hostages and demand that Hamas stops shooting rockets at civilians.
Israel has been treating Palestinians like shit for decades. Surprise surprise that resulted in extremist groups forming.
Both Hamas and Israel are shit, but the important thing to remember is PALESTINIANS ARE NOT HAMAS. Commiting war crimes on Palestinians is unrelated to stopping Hamas.
You can’t put political pressure on a terrorist group to stop killing civilians, you can put political pressure on your government to stop supporting a government killing civilians.
Israel needs to stop doing war crimes *and" Hamas needs to be dealt with as a terrorist group.
you can put political pressure on your government to stop supporting a government killing civilians.
What do you think Hamas is? They aren’t some random small terror organisation. They are the government of Gaza. So what’s stopping Palestinians from putting pressure on them?
Hamas needs to be dealt with as a terrorist group.
And how exactly do you think that’s supposed to work? You don’t like what Israel is doing, fine, what’s your alternative?
The UK is not supporting Hamas, so their is no point in protesting their support for Hamas. If you want to fly to Iran and protest their support of Hamas, that would make sense.
K, you pointed out a not, how about what you would do? Go and shake Hamas’ hand and thank the for all the children they’ve butchered? Hamas needs exterminated, and I don’t see a way to deal with them when they hide behind human shields like the shitstained cowards they are.
Okay, so they bombed gaza. Is Hamas gone now? Problem solved? No? Just dead civilians and further recruitment for Hamas? Damn, if only that was in any way predictable…
“So what’s stopping Palestinians from putting pressure on them?”
What would you do if you were the Palestinian in this question. seriously. Hamas is not held an election since 2006 what would you do to put pressure on Hamas while you lived in the Gaza strip?
The answer to your question is lots of stuff is stopping the Palestinians from putting pressure on Hamas.
What would you do if you were the Palestinian in this question.
We are talking about a rally in London. All I expect is to see a few signs calling for the end of Hamas, an end to violence or something along the lines. All I see is “Free Palestine” signs, which is nothing more than an antisemitic dog whistle.
All I see is “Free Palestine” signs, which is nothing more than an antisemitic dog whistle.
How is that a dog whistle? Is Palestine not in need of being freed? Israel has been holding people in Gaza down for decades and treating them like they are sub-human. Calling out that behaviour as monstrous is not a “dog whistle”, it’s directly saying out loud what the problem is.
Like the 500 in the hospital attack? For which there is no evidence nor was it caused by the IDF. Also keep in mind that plenty of those killed will have been Hamas. You are blindly trusting numbers giving out by a terrorist organisation.
Might help is Israel hadn’t been proclaiming the destruction of Palestinians for decades. Too late to go back and not do that, but they could stop doing it NOW.
Right, right, they just proclaimed Palestine doesn’t exist:
Israeli Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich delivered a speech in Paris saying the notion of a Palestinian people was artificial.
“There is no such thing as a Palestinian nation. There is no Palestinian history. There is no Palestinian language,” he said in France late Sunday. He spoke at a lectern draped with what appeared to be an image showing the map of Israel that included the occupied West Bank, Gaza and Jordan.
If someone claims a culture doesn’t exist at all, sure sounds like they want to wipe out that culture to people who understand that it does exist.
(I found this by simply searching “Israel statements on Palestine” and it was the 2nd link. The first link had plenty of examples of Israel’s war crimes, but no direct statements from Israel. )
Ah, so a public official making it clear that want to wipe out, say, the USA, would be perfectly acceptable as long as they didn’t say they want to wipe out Caucasians?
Mostly to vent out anti-Semitic frustration in a way that is politically viable

The UK is not supporting Hamas, so their is no point in protesting their support for Hamas. If you want to fly to Iran and protest their support of Hamas, that would make sense.
To start with: not threatening to carpet bomb civilians just because they might get some members of Hamas as well. This one should be obvious.
K, you pointed out a not, how about what you would do? Go and shake Hamas’ hand and thank the for all the children they’ve butchered? Hamas needs exterminated, and I don’t see a way to deal with them when they hide behind human shields like the shitstained cowards they are.

To free Palestine you have to destroy Israel, that’s their goal.
Israel has killed more Palestinians than Hamas has killed Israelis. Punished a population is a war crime. Israel should really know about this
Like the 500 in the hospital attack? For which there is no evidence nor was it caused by the IDF. Also keep in mind that plenty of those killed will have been Hamas. You are blindly trusting numbers giving out by a terrorist organisation.
Exactly,
and then HAMAS has to stop proclaiming the destruction of Israel.
Might help is Israel hadn’t been proclaiming the destruction of Palestinians for decades. Too late to go back and not do that, but they could stop doing it NOW.
Israel never proclaimed the destruction of Palestinians. Where did you get that?
Right, right, they just proclaimed Palestine doesn’t exist:

Be aware of not confusing nation state with cultural group or ethnicity. Palestinians are basically Arabs.
The state of Israel never said that they want to wipe out another culture, like the Arabs. It is actually the other way around.
Ah, so a public official making it clear that want to wipe out, say, the USA, would be perfectly acceptable as long as they didn’t say they want to wipe out Caucasians?
Well if that isn’t the most outlandish illogical leap I’ve seen in a while…
From the article.
Nothing antisemitic about that. Wouldn’t matter what race, religion, ethnicity the apartheid occupiers were.
