Israel And The Palestinians (now with added Iran)

[GHF-23]

So the above is absolutely deranged, and it shouldn't require clarification why using the fucking Nazis as an analogue for the - repellent - government of Israel is unacceptable. But that being said it's interesting to see things I considered to be indicative of anti-Semitism, such as conflating Israel and the Jewish people or talking about good Jews and bad Jews (as below), have become absolutely fair game and it's actually now unacceptable according to many sensible moderate people in the US and Europe to disagree with this

Has anyone ever thought of singing free Palestine to the tune of sweet Caroline before?

Does risk up Hamas being added in

Israelis have been terrorising, ghettoing , starving and killing Palestinians for years. Yes, what Hamas done was utterly despicable,  but let's not blind ourselves to the fact that Israel have built a more terrible hatred of the younger generation of Palestinians by their actions while the world has looked the other way. Remember that the British caused the middle east mess in the first place.

Hard to disagree with that.  Arabs are routinely referred to as rodents in the Knesset, parliament of Israel .

Can't agree that Israelis are the modern day Nazis, odious though the behaviour of the state of Israel has been for decades.

Bruce Cockburn recorded a very human song, when experiencing the retribution of the US against the socialist government of Nicaragua elected back in the day.

That's not fair.  They had a lot of help from the French.

I read the tweets of a few anti-zionist Jews, mostly Americans. This claim over them by Israel really annoys them.

That analogy is as lazy as Blinken's Nazi massacres analogy about the initial Hamas attack.

I agree that it’s a lazy analogy.

I’m sure an analogy could be drawn with other advocates/practitioners of genocide.

Not sure any of them would be getting unconditional support from the US and UK governments AND their main opposition parties all the same.

Be interesting to hear what Suella has to say about that little difficulty that Rwanda had 30 years ago.

But no help at all from Liverpool FC who are entirely blameless.  Again.

I thought it was the Sykes Picot Agreement whereby Britain and France carved up the old Ottoman Empire that caused all the problems.

It was, as a by product the betrayal of King Faisal also led to Ibn al Saud rising to prominence in the Region with the consequent Fundamentalist issues ever since.

Don’t you lot have some sort of free speech Tsar that will sort this all out? You know because free and open debate is a cornerstone of democracy or something. Maybe that’s only a trans thing 

No, free speech only works in Universities if you use it to be anti semitic. The Jews are not welcome in higher education ( or anywhere else, according to North London Liberal acolytes)in this little cesspool of a country.
