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

[Swissclaret]

It would be interesting to see what the reaction would be if the Muslims declared jihad on Bolton and surroundings. In addition, lobbing the odd rocket at the area - indiscriminately, of course.

Bearing in mind the anti-Semitic sentiments expressed by BT last year “I hate Israel and all who sail in her” for Israel daring to respond to the October 2023 atrocities, would support for the Muslims be quite so blinkered?

Hypothetical but I wonder………

Trump may yet decide to nuke Bolton...

In the cossetted world of neutrality and Swiss chocolate I would suppose it is hard to imagine being killed by sniper fire whilst standing in a queue to feed your family.

I used to abhor anti-Semitism, now I'm not so sure.

Us, the good old USA and most of Europe have echoed Israel's own assertion that it has a right to defend itself. I'm minded to ask how on earth is blowing Gaza to bits, bombing Syria, Yemen, Lebanon and Iran "defending itself".

How can the civilian deaths by starvation or military actions of more than 55000 Palestinians be justified as defending the terrorist State of Israel?

The Iron Dome fallacy is just that too.

Don't you worry yourself about niceties like the above mon ami, I don't, and neither does Israel, there's a war going on don't you know.

As has been demonstrated your sources of information are questionable as pro - Palestinian propaganda to make them out to be the victim. As sinkov has posted on several occasions, Hamas could have released the hostages but chose not to.

With respect I doubt that you know what it is like to be shot at - unless Bolton is far worse than I imagined.

Having read your posts, there can be no doubt that you are a racist, anti - Semite so have the courage of your convictions, certainly since last year.

I am sure that you will not like such labels as socialist minded people typically regard labelling people as “racist” and “far-right” as their sole preserve. However, the truth will out, as the saying goes.

With best wishes from sunny Switzerland - hopefully the chocolate won’t all melt!

IDF snipers targeting children is way beyond my imagination. If you think that is nothing other than reprehensible then shame on you.

How mentally sick or ill are people who support this policy of starvation..?

[Swissclaret]

I agree BT. Starving the people is reprehensible. Israel is channelling aid through the GHD. The problem is getting to the truth.

The Intercept is an American left wing publication that enjoys a disreputable reputation from independent reviews. Rather like The Guardian, I suspect that they have an agenda and then find stories (real or made up) to fit their agenda.

I prefer the Balfour Project for more balanced reporting on what is actually happening. An old school friend of k-c and me is a trustee, having been a diplomat in Jerusalem for many years.

I can recommend their articles - they do not have an agenda other than peace between Israelis and Palestinians.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Do your mates agree that the Jews have slaughtered upwards of 55,000 Palestinian civilians in cold blood?

I'm still waiting to see a photo of an emaciated Pally corpse who has clearly starved to death. As I'm still waiting to see footage of the IDF shooting at starving Pallys queuing for food. If you're looking for evidence of mental sickness mon ami, look in the mirror.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

I find it odd being referred to a racist by people who support genocide, ethnic cleansing and apartheid. The same people who stand firmly behind a religious cult that openly says all Palestinian children should be killed are all part of an immoral abomination.

The same people who claimed Iraq possessed Weapons of Mass Destruction are now claiming the same about Iran.

It's madness.

[sinkov]

A delightful story of the Loony Left Pally supporters trying to enter Egypt. They are so thick they don't even realise the Egyptians have even less time for Pallys than the Israelis do. But they found out the hard way, with a good kicking, just a pity the Doom Goblin wasn't with them. I think they would all agree afterwards that being 'kidnapped' by the IDF is much preferable.

The first article on the website is about the reprehensible actions of the Israelis in Gaza. The killing of innocent people. I do not support nor condone those actions. I do not support either the actions of Hamas, especially towards its own people who do not want to be governed by Hamas and are used as human shields.

I can recommend the article to you.

I do not support any of those actions that you refer to and will be interested to read your sources that support ethnic cleansing and apartheid as you suggest.

Nor do I support a view encapsulated in your comment of last year that you hate Israel and everyone who lives there. Not all Israelis support what is going on just as,I am sure, a lot of Palestinians do not support Hamas.

There is no genocide, no ethnic cleansing and no apartheid in Israel. Just anti-semites spewing their bile, lies and propaganda. Ask him for a photo of an emaciated Pally dying from starvation Swiss, but don't hold your breath waiting.
