Israel protecting and enforcing it's borders would prevent another October 7th, as they could very easily have prevented the first. I don't expect a terrorist organisation like Hamas to act in the interest of peace or morality. I do not accept that Israel are entitled to commit genocide...

Israel is perfectly capable of protecting and enforcing it's borders without the ongoing atrocities.

Again, 'unfortunate' frames is as something outside of anyone's control, but it's not - it's a deliberate decision. Have you considered sharing that high-level analysis with the UN and the International Association of Genocide Scholars? I'm sure they wouldn't have considered such nuance in...

I'm very happy to condemn both of those things and both of these genocidal death-cults who show equal disregard for human life. Anyone else..?

No, they show the destruction caused by a military acting outside of it's commitments to international law and with total disregard for civilian life, to the extent that it's been very credibly accused of committing a genocide - pretending that level of destruction is somehow an inevitable...

Do you think Israel would stop the settler attacks and incursions if Hamas disbanded/disarmed? Israel was killing Palestinians, including civilians, in Gaza and the West Bank long before October 2023, and before Hamas even existed. Settlement expansion and settler violence in the West Bank were...

Incorrect about what? What is the stop button that Hamas hold?

Of course true objectivity is a fantasy, but there is still a scale within that. I also don't understand your initial point around 'passing the smell test' in context with the above - if the pro-Israel audience will disregard everything anyway, why should the documentary makers water down...

And one of them had a cousin who visited a mosque on holiday in Istanbul - we'll have to disregard the whole thing.

" A Centre for Media Monitoring analysis of more than 35,000 pieces of BBC coverage found that Israeli deaths received 33 times more coverage per fatality than Palestinian deaths, emotive language was used around four times more frequently for Israeli victims, and "murder" was used 220 times for...

The IDF will disregard it whatever the content. Sensible people would not take the same approach. Already you see posters above pre-empting it - ready to dismiss the evidence before they've even seen it.

As long as you continue to believe that everyone not mindlessly regurgitating Israeli propaganda is 'pro-Hamas', you will continue to believe utter nonsense. Holding up the IDF and the BBC as if they are equivalents on opposite sides of the argument is just mind-numbingly dumb.

People can be apolitical about whatever they want, and people are allowed to react to that stance however they want - I'm not sure what you think I'm suggesting. The framing of this story doesn't make any sense to me - Sheeran hasn't been cancelled for his politics, Macklemore was. Macklemore...

Yes, very - it's trying to invoke sympathy based on bullshit conflations. Can you expand on how Ed Sheeran receiving criticism for being apolitical to genocide is relevant to your claim that "it's fashionable to pick on them again"? Who has mentioned Jewish people in this story!?

It's correct-ish. That some civilian infrastructure can become legitimate military targets is of course true, but it doesn't make the scale of destruction in Gaza justifiable, legally or otherwise. Over 100,000 structures have been completely destroyed - it's not plausible that they all met the...

You would never find me cheerleading anyone that pathetically. You’re coming off way to keen - play it a bit harder to get and you might get lucky.

Mate, do you want to just ask for his number and see if he’s interested?

Do you think Palestinians are just inherently disposed to violence? Is it genetic?

Are war crimes and atrocities justified if the victims are unpopular?

I can't remember Richards having a good game as the CCB for us. Similarly, Lacroix looked poor in his first couple of games as the RCB, and only when he shifted central did his performances climb. I can also vaguely remember Guehi having some stinkers playing centre of the three. The more I've...
