Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

It's a long time since I came across an advocate of "Paki bashing".

Go and speak to the parents of the victims of the Pakistani Rape gangs, I'm sure you'll find one or two advocates there. Also there's an intriguing Podcast called PGurus, you can find it on YouTube, see what the two Indian gentlemen Sree Iyer and Sumit Peer think about their neighbours. I would suggest they also know more about Pakistan and Pakistanis than you mon ami.

"Palestinians start to return to homes in north Gaza after Israeli hostage deal reached"

If I went to see the parents of the victims of the alleged Pakistani Rape gangs, I'd be firmly asking them WhyTF do you not know where your child is when she is not at home?

For all the parents know she might well be at Prince Andrew's abode.

What homes ?

Trump is saying what a brilliant opportunity it is to build a new beach resort.

A lot of them were with Social Services, I'd love to ask them why they didn't want to know what the girls in their care were up to, or turned a blind eye when they did.

What a sad and sorry sight, a column of refugees, stretching literally as far as the eye can see, returning to their homes in Northern Gaza. At least they think they are, it seems the poor buggers don't realise that 95% of the houses in Northern Gaza are now piles of rubble. My heart bleeds for them.

I'm sure the countless thousands of Gazans now homeless, and the relatives of the countless thousands of Gazans killed in the last 15 months, will tonight be joyfully celebrating Hamas's hands down victory in the propaganda war.

In the real world, the IDF won the real war, hands down.

Have Hamas surrendered?

Have Israel and the IDF managed to beat a rag tag army of rag heads?

Has the US provision of a pay load of weaponry unparalleled in history defeated Hamas?

No.

[Balan]

Hamas is a paramilitary terrorist organization it has a large and advanced arsenal of weapons from various sources and has been equipped with tens of thousands of light weapons, such as Kalashnikov assault rifles, sniper rifles, machine guns, and large amounts of grenades, IEDs, and explosive devices. An armed conflict between Israel and Hamas-led Palestinian militant groups has been taking place in the Gaza Strip and Israel since 7 October 2023. It is the fifth war since 2008 in the Gaza–Israel conflict, and the most significant military engagement in the region since the Yom Kippur War in 1973.
The former head of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, had resided in Doha since 2016 until his death in 2024. Qatar has been called Hamas' most important financial backer and foreign ally. Crude oil production is at approximately 1.746 million barrels per day, making Qatar one of the top 15 oil exporting countries and one of the world's major fertilizer producers.
''A rag tag army of rag heads, eh? (being backed by Qatar!!'')

( On 31 July 2024, Ismail Haniyeh, the political leader of Hamas, was assassinated along with his personal bodyguard in the Iranian capital Tehran by an Israeli attack. )

No.

God knows how many thousands have been killed in Gaza, the place, as you have already mentioned, is virtually destroyed, the hospitals, so we're told, have ceased to function, schools and mosques have been flattened, there is no food, people are starving.

If this is what victory looks like, God help them should they ever lose.
