The Palestine thread

[give her dixie]

GHD been sitting watching that live stream of Gaza. Is that actual people praying over speakers or is it recordings? Is it even prayers?

Probably the call to prayer. It is tough viewing seeing the place on fire in area's and the sound of the airstrikes

Proud to be part of the pro-Gaza march in the city of the same name (almost) as myself today, and nice to see at least one tricolour there too.

Muppet

Normal channels are broken. Israel doesn't recognise either international law or the geneva conventions in gaza. The americans won't do anything because of all the jewish money that sponsors the politicians. Gaza is tired of being shafted. Israel will not tolerate a Palestinian state.
If they do nothing the siege continues.
What would you do?

If you are arguing for Hamas firing rockets, which achieves absolutely nothing strategically or militarily, but has an horrific downside, then we will have to agree to disagree. You will not persuade me that there is any merit in it.

I think it's a strategic attempt to leverage international action to lift the siege. They know Israel will respond disproportionately and kill lots of children. They have reasonable demands. Maybe you believe Israel is a rational player that observes the rules.

And that in a nut shell is my problem with one sided condemnation. If Hamas want to be martyrs let them, but they should not be choosing that for the children.
To paraphrase muppet they are inviting a rabid dog into the kindergarten.

Not condoning Hamas but desperate people do desperate things.

Dr mads gilbert is norwegian and in shifa hospital in gaza. She says the Israelis are using munitions that do terrible damage to bodies even if they don't cause immediate death.

This is just unreal. A Mass killing by these bastards has taken place. Horrorific

Family members staying together in one room to ensure nobody is left behind if the Israelis shell the building.
The level of hatred Israel has for Gaza is infathomable.

The 4th largest army in the world needs a war every 2 or 3 years. Israelis are educated to serve that army and run the occupation.

Israel is using flechettes against the civilian population. World's most moral army.
