O/T:- Palestine / Israel

[countygump]

I think that holding a minute's silence at a football match should only be for a death related to either of the teams playing, a national tragedy, or the death of a national figure. Otherwise it can become pointless virtue signalling and doesn't help victims in any way.

This^^^

BLM have shown their true colours by supporting the attack by Hamas, and just to think our national football team and Police take the knee. Always saw it for what it is.

My view on this is kind of simplistic, Gaza and the Palestinians are a basket case, Hamas terror is bred into every child that lives in Gaza, they have no desire to live a peaceful life and have a mantra to completely wipe out Israel and every Jew on earth.
These “Children” are the pawns of Hamas and every other terrorist org throughout the world and without any shadow of doubt these “Children” will be tomorrow’s terrorist, through no fault of theirs, Israel know this and have no option but to stop this cycle or Israel will be under a state of war for many many years to come, if they do not stop it it’s a rinse and repeat.
Whether we like it or not GB has far too many practising Muslim’s, far too many. GB is a Christian Country in the main, whilst many Muslims live here in a peaceful existence and have enhanced all our lives in a nice way many more wish to impose the laws and their religion that is practiced in the middle east, this cannot go on or there will be no GB in the distant future, Our Home Secretary had a point which she said a while back, all immigrants should be forced to assimilate into the local community, but the religion they practice forbids this so we have ghettos as a result and on it goes.
I don’t think the answer is simple but its in there somewhere I would imagine. The BBC has become a joke, hijacked by poor management and poor decisions made as a result, its demise is laid bare. Also the amount of “reporters” that are in Gaza/ Israel is bordering on the ridiculous, all chasing that elusive click-bait that doesn’t exist, deaths of these people was inevitable as they are scrambling around like rats. As for our FA/FL just why do they fall into the trap of a minutes silence that is done so often that it make the traditional remembrance’s meaningless, just stop it, let our club decide on a local basis, for local worthiness of a minutes silence/clapping.

BLM haven't said anything about the situation in the Middle East one way or the other.

A splinter group in Chicago, unaffiliated with the main BLM movement, posted something stupid and then deleted it and backed down.

The whole BLM thing is abhorrent, and should be banned. The only thing you hear, is division, racism and loading bullets for people to misbehave unlawfully pushed by people with agendas.

You hear division and racism because division and racism already exist, and pretending they don't is worse than having to accept they do.

As is shown by suggesting that the political opinions of a group led by black people should be banned.

No one pretends racism and division doesn’t exist and it’s wrong, I treat everyone the same end of. But BLM does the same, it adds to fuel to the fire, as posted above we have radical groups of religions in the UK who are doing the same, they all need clamping down on with the extreme elements removed, some of the clips I’ve seen of pro-Palestine protestors celebrating the deaths of the Israelis babies, men, boys, girls, women from last week is again abhorrent. BLM is no different and I hold their protesters who have damaged, abused anything in the UK with the same contempt. People regardless of race, colour, faith need to be held accountable for their actions that cause division in tbe UK, end of.

Anyone who supported terrorism committed an offence and the police are already rightly making arrests. Beyond that, free speech is precious and needs protecting - in all directions. Much as I detest the BNP, I don't think they should be banned either.

Or to put it another way, the biggest cause of division in the UK in my lifetime was Brexit, and I look forward to your support for the arrest of Nigel Farage as a result. Or perhaps it's only certain kinds of division you mean?
