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

"Syrian rebels launch surprise attack against Assad".

First major offensive by jihadists in four years takes Russian and Iranian-backed Assad regime by surprise.

The United Nations has estimated that more than 300,000 civilians, or 1.5 per cent of the total pre-war population were killed between March 2011 and March 2021.

In addition to the bloodshed, more than half of Syria?s pre-war population of 22 million have had to flee their homes.

Some 6.8 million are internally displaced, with more than two million living in tented camps with limited access to basic services.

Another six million are refugees or asylum-seekers abroad, with neighbouring Lebanon, Jordan and Turkey hosting 5.3 million of them.


300,000 civilians killed, 22 million fled their homes, 6 million fled to other countries, makes Gaza seem like a Teddy Bear's Picnic in comparison, but from our bedwetting, handwringing Lefties, foaming at the mouth over Gaza, not a peep, not a word, apparently they couldn't care less, these people don't matter to them.

I wonder why ? As it's mostly Islamists killing each other in Syria and there are no Jews involved, the logical conclusion is that it must be Anti-Semitism driving the confected Lefty outrage over Gaza. Any other ideas ?

Well said sinkov. There are terrible things happening around the world and no-one says a word. Only Israel is singled out for criticism.

The International Criminal Court ignores the tyrants perpetrating far worse crimes, but issues warrants against BY. What could be at the bottom of all this except for blatant anti-semitism.

Of course, let we forget, for the loony Left, everyone else is a “freedom fighter”. Sickening.

Starmer's support for Israel is unwavering...

Haha, don't you mean that Starmer's support for pursuing those who want to act outside the Laws of the Land continue.
He is misguided in everythnig he does, therefore, just keep expecting more of the same except for what he misses whilst he is swanning around the world with his entourage in order to protect the environment and climate change.

The big con continues no matter who rulsed the roost.

If she was falsely arrested and charged under the Terrorism Act, any half decent solicitor would win the lass a fortune in compo.

Can't find any trace of this in the UK, no mention of it (unsurprisingly) on the BBC or Grauniad websites, but I believe Assad has asked Israel for help in their fight against the Jihadists currently occupying Aleppo. Netanyahu has told Assad to get the Iranian backed militias and the IRGC out of Syria and he might think about it.

Whatever next.

I had no idea Jews were gathered in Australia. Why aren't they in Palestine murdering Arabs?

Infantile.

Hitler had nothing on this lot...

The Oxford Union debate, November 28, 2024, considered the motion- “The House believes Israel is an Apartheid state responsible for genocide"
The motion was passed overwhelmingly. The vote will go down in history as one of the pivotal moments in the global tidal wave against Zionism and the Zionist American imperial war machine.
Here is the text of Susan Abulhawa’s presentation.
“I will not take questions until I’m finished speaking; so please refrain from interrupting me.
Addressing the challenge of what to do about the indigenous inhabitants of the land Chaim Weizman, a Russian Jew, said to the World Zionist Congress in 1921 that Palestinians were akin to “the rocks of Judea, obstacles that had to be cleared on a difficult path."
David Gruen, a Polish Jew, who changed his name to David Ben Gurion to sound relevant to the region, said. "We must expel Arabs and take their places”
There are thousands of such conversations among the early zionists who plotted and implemented the violent colonization of Palestine and the annihilation of her native people.
But they were only partially successful, murdering or ethnically cleansing 80% of Palestinians, which meant that 20% of us remained, an enduring obstacle to their colonial fantasies, which became the subject of their obsessions in the decades that followed, especially after conquering what remained of Palestine in 1967.
Zionists lamented our presence, and they debated publicly in all circles—political, academic, social, cultural circles—regarding what do with us; what to do about the Palestinian birthrate, about our babies, which they dub a demographic threat.
Benny Morris, who was originally meant to be here, once expressed regret that Ben Gurion “did not finish the job” of getting rid of us all, which would have obviated what they refer to as the “Arab problem.”
Benjamin Netanyahu, a Polish Jew whose real name is Benjamin Mileikowsky, once bemoaned a missed opportunity during the 1989 Tiananmen Square uprising to expel large swaths of the Palestinian population “while world attention was focused on China.”
Some of their articulated solutions to the nuisance of our existence include a “break their bones” policy in the 80s and 90s, ordered by Yitzhak Rubitzov, Ukrainian Jew who changed his name to Yitzhak Rabin (for the same reasons).
That horrific policy that crippled generations of Palestinians did not succeed in making us leave. And frustrated by Palestinian resilience, a new discourse arose, especially after a massive natural gas field was discovered off the coast of Northern Gaza worth trillions of dollars.
This new discourse is echoed in the words of Colonel Efraim Eitan, who said in 2004, “we have to kill them all.”
Aaron Sofer, an Israeli so-called intellectual and political advisor, insisted in 2018 that “we have to kill and kill and kill. All day, every day.”
When I was in Gaza, I saw a little boy no more than 9 years whose hands and part of his face, had been blown off from a booby trapped can of food that soldiers had left behind for Gaza’s starving children. I later learned that they had also left poisoned food for people in Shujaiyya, and in the 1980s and 90s, Israeli soldiers had left booby trapped toys in southern Lebanon that exploded when excited children picked them up.
