The killing & starving of Children in Palestine. All this talk is a waste of time action needed.

A couple of years ago 90% of our population would struggle to point out where Palestine is on the map

Ditto Ukraine and how to pronounce their capital Keeeev

Palestine is the latest trendy conflict that’s increasingly made out to be the kid picked on by the local playground bully. It isn’t, it is yet another fledgling Islamic state that we will all regret allowing to develop.

Another Iran, Iraq or Libya in the making

This reply has to be a wind up, Palestine is not a fledgling state it has been around a very long time. Murdering women and children is not humane and their religion is not a reason to justify such action. We committed some of the worst war crimes in human history in Iraq slaughtering over 1 million people, for what? There were no WMD and no connection to 9/11 it was done purely for oil and control of the region. If you think such behaviour by the greater west is acceptable, then you are not the type of person I would ever want to meet. Perhaps when you and yours are treated this way you might have an alternative view, I would also suggest doing some serious research into these regions and wars rather than listening to the BBC and reading the Sun or Mirror, you might learn something.

Coincidentally, shortly after Sadam had announced he would no longer trade Iraqi oil for the U.S. dollar...

Depends on your definition of fledgling

Like Israel its about as old as me. It is at least 80% Arab Muslim. People hell bent on the destruction of Israel

Is that an excuse not to care Grist? 99% of British people didn't know where the Falklands were. In fact I would say your statistic probably applies to most places. I'm sure 90% of Americans couldn't point out England on a map.

Kids starving to death is not acceptable. Whatever the history I agree it has to stop. They are just kids.
