    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Okay. Appreciate your honesty. I already think they have gone too far in their response.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    I don't know. I guess it's because it's everywhere and this is one recent, awful incident, so people tend to focus on things as they actually happen and that are heavily reported at the time I think there are lots of awful things going on that never make the headlines unfortunately. Look at...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    That's not what I asked though. Do you think it is acceptable for Israel to use any means at all in order to reach their goal?

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Personally, I do think there a large majority of Muslims that are peaceful and law-abiding. I used to work with a Muslim and he used to be in the British army and one of my best friends is a Muslim and they are one of the nicest people you could ever wish to meet. It's where you get the...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Okay, heres a question for those that are in total support of the Israeli actions. Do they have a complete carte blanche here in your eyes, or would there be anything that was a step too far? Just a genuine question. Not trying to provoke, or catch anyone out. I just wonder if you would find...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    I don't honestly know. Where do you draw a line? I know that Israel have been land-grabbing since the 1960's. It's such a mess over there and there is no definitive answer is there really.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    I would word that differently. I think there are plenty of people on here who don't wish to see Israel win (they have consistently and constantly, illegally land-grabbed over many decades), but don't wish to see Hamas win either. I would like to think that most people would want Palestine to...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Calling us all terrorist sympathisers is totally insane. My stance has always been that I have sympathy for the Palestinians, but also hate any terrorist attacks on Israel. That, that attack two weeks ago was sick and depraved, but that Israeli's retribution is inhumane and way beyond the pail...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Neither did Palestine. This was Hamas. You can't blame all of Ireland for the IRA, just the same as you couldn't blame all of Germany for Hitler.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Bottom line is in all of this, even if you support what you see as a people's legitimate cause, you can never, ever, ever, defend what the likes of Hamas did on that fateful Saturday. That was terrorism.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Even if anyone doesn't think Hamas are terrorists, that attack, WAS a terrorist attack. How else can you define it? By it's very definition, it was a terrorist attack 🤷

    Fair play to you, but how do you think England will get on?

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    I want Hamas to be crushed too. This isn't just retribution against Hamas though. This is against the people of Palestine.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Well,.I didn't say anything at the time of the attack either, but my father has recently died and at the time I was flitting back and forth from Kent to Coventry, visiting solicitors abd ministers and funeral directors and didn't even know about it until some time after.. I have them since...

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    Not from me. I just want to see peace over there. Can't stand Hamas and can't stand the Israeli regime.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    I have always been in favour of united Ireland, but hated the IRA with an absolute passion.

    Israel - Palestinian Conflict

    It is though isn't it, if you are accusing me of supporting terrorists. I can't abide Hamas and what they did last week was beyond contemptible.

    He's said we all side with Hamas hasn't he? It's a complete nonsense.
