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

Not mine mon ami, I love it when the Loony Left gets schooled and start throwing their toys out of the pram. Carry on Mr Robus, you're doing a fine job, very informative and educational posts.

Give or take a head or two and a global population of 7 billion of which 2 billion are Muslims, who in their right head thinks 16 million Jews are going to be safe after incarcerating, bombing and slaughtering tens of thousands of the Muslim Brotherhood in the world's largest open air concentration camp. Get real guys.

Jesus wept, the Balfour Declaration was 107 years ago, how long do these feckers need to sort their affairs out ?

The Palestinians will never forgive the Nakba of 1948 and the Jews are still stealing their land right now.

Something will have to give somewhere, but what has always amazed me is the lack of support the Palestinians get from the Arab States, I suppose they are just all scared to death of the Star Wars military capability of US backed Israel.

And on it goes, "Five Palestinians were killed in an Israeli strike on the Nur Shams refugee camp in the West Bank on Monday, the Palestinian health ministry said in a statement.

The official Palestinian news agency, Wafa, said four loud explosions were heard after an Israeli drone targeted a house in the camp in the West Bank city of Tulkarm. Israel has not immediately commented." What's new?

When the wrath of Allah rains down on the Jews let's recall these moments:

Israel's hardline Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir repeated a call for Jews to be allowed to pray at the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, drawing sharp criticism for inflaming tensions as ceasefire negotiators seek a deal to halt fighting in Gaza.

"The policy at the Temple Mount allows praying there. Period," Ben-Gvir told an Army Radio interviewer. "The prime minister knew when I joined the government there would not be any discrimination. Muslims are allowed to pray and a Jew is not allowed to pray?"

Asked if he would build a synagogue on the site if he could, Ben-Gvir replied "Yes, Yes".

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office immediately put out a statement restating the official Israeli position, which accepts decades-old rules restricting non-Muslim prayer at the mosque compound, known as Temple Mount to Jews, who revere it as the site of two ancient temples.

"There is no change to the status quo on the Temple Mount," Netanyahu's office said.

The hillside compound, in Jerusalem's Old City, is one of the most sensitive locations in the Middle East, holy for both Muslims and Jews, and the trigger for repeated conflict.

Nabil Abu Rudeineh, spokesperson for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, said calls to tamper with the status of Al-Aqsa appeared intended "to drag the region into a religious war that will burn everyone".

"Nakba" has become code for "the creation of Israel." Palestinians will not "forgive" is the existence of Israel. The mainstream position among Palestinians is that Israel must cease to exist, and the Jews must leave.



The slogan is true: If the Palestinians stopped fighting, there would be peace; if Israel stopped fighting, there would be a Holocaust.

I think we are living in a broken society where shoplifting knife crime drug taking scamming and general lawlessness are endemic. Labour and Conservative (it doesn’t matter which of them are in power) have presided over forty years of decline and neither seem to have the wit or the policies to reverse that downward trend. Sir Keir put himself before the electorate as the man to change everything. Early days in his administration I know but does anyone genuinely believe this Labour administration is going to change anything?

There is no doubt that Britain has serious problems.

It may be apocryphal but Confucius is believed to have said “If you want to know the future, look at the past”.

A useful parallel from the past is the decline and fall of the Roman Empire. There are many causes but many agree that major contributors were internal corruption, outside invasion, over - reliance on slave (cheap) labour, economic problems, overspending by rulers.

Rulers, military and politicians became more concerned with protecting their positions than what was good for the Empire.

Ring any bells in the context of Britain?
