    State of Palestine being officially recognised today in the UK but we all know it's never going to happen, because imagine there was a violent cult that used scriptures from an ancient religion to convince its followers to do evil things.

    Imagine the cult was given its own state.

    Imagine the cult was given machine guns, tanks and war planes.

    Imagine the cult obtained nuclear weapons.

    Imagine the cult started committing genocide against the indigenous people who’d been living in the area where the cult’s state was established.

    Imagine the cult had huge branches in the most powerful nation on earth, and the powerful nation defended the cult no matter what it did.

    Imagine the cult flipped out and started relentlessly attacking and invading the surrounding nations.

    Imagine the cult had so much influence and support in western society that western governments and institutions would censor, silence, fire, marginalize and deport anyone who criticized the cult’s actions.

    Imagine the western media sympathized highly with the cult and spent the entire time framing its atrocities as entirely reasonable defensive actions, and framing critics of the cult as malicious bigots.

    Imagine the cult kept getting crazier and crazier and more and more violent, but nobody could find a way to stop it because its actions were backed by this giant western power structure.

    That’d suck, huh?

    I think that’d be just about the most bat **** insane situation anyone could possibly imagine.

    A nuclear-armed death cult just murdering and massacring mountains of human beings with total impunity, backed by the most powerful people on earth? That would be an unfathomable madness.

    If someone made a movie about such a thing I’d stop watching halfway through, because I would find it too unbelievable.

    I’d be like, come on man. Come up with a more realistic plot line. And come up with a more believable antagonist; nobody is that evil.

    I’d be like come on Hollywood, you seriously expect me to maintain my suspension of disbelief when you’re putting out a movie about these cartoonishly evil bad guys who blow up hospitals and assassinate journalists and murder humanitarian workers and deliberately massacre starving civilians seeking food?

    I’d be like, you really expect me to believe a violent cult could get all this power and do all these evil things and get away with it, just by lying about it all the time? Eventually people would stop believing their lies!

    I’d be like, somebody would stop them. Not only does this movie have unbelievable antagonists, it also lacks any believable protagonists. Basic human decency would compel the world to stop all these atrocities being committed right out in the open. Where are the heroes in this story?

    And then I’d storm out of the movie theatre, glad to be outside that horrible fictional world where such freakish absurdities were taking place.

    And then I’d stand in the parking lot and look up at the sky, and thank God I’m back in reality again.

    Today I'm watching the Jews raze Gaza City to the ground and think, "Recognise what?"

    BT, are you on LSD by any chance? You can own up, I won't tell anybody but these hallucinations that you are experiencing are classic symptoms.
    Try Ketamine, it's much less adventurous.

    You don't half copy and paste some infantile drivel mon ami.

    Leaving Alice in Wonderland for now, I believe there are still some 2 million Pallys living in Gaza, the IDF is allegedly genociding these people, but the IDF has the fire power to kill the lot of them in one afternoon if it so wished. So once again mon ami, your Lefty nonsense doesn't add up. I think I'm safe in insisting that there would not be over 2 million people living in Gaza if genocide was indeed being carried out. So which is it, no 2 million Pallys, or no genocide, both cannot be true.
