Don’t panic. All turned out to be 1 poster.

I suppose at least the UN isn’t trying to understate what’s going on. They said that the 24 hour evacuation was impossible, it was. They’ve now issued a statement the says “Gaza is being pushed into the abyss”. They’re still impotent though, doesn’t help that they’re being undermined by its...

Birds of a feather…

Just being reported that the Israelis have hit a convoy fleeing to the south of Gaza from the North. Women and children confirmed amongst the dead. I wonder how long the government and the opposition are going to continue that the narrative that Israel has the right to defend itself.

You hate all Muslims because you think they’re all racist, which ironically makes you a racist.

If you were being cynical you would think that he deliberately allowed a terrorist attack on his country to give him the opportunity to look tough in an attempt to take pressure off him from his critics at home. A bit like how the Tories have allowed the refugee crisis in the UK to escalate so...

Did nothing to prevent it even though they had advanced notice something was about to happen, is the point. The individual acts are of course on the people who committed them. We keep being told that Israel has the right to defend itself, which in itself is 100% correct. Problem is if they’re...

How we “won’t” pick up the pieces. This happened just last month https://www.gov.uk/government/news/foreign-secretary-announces-new-support-for-almost-6-million-palestinian-refugees

That really is all you’ve got. Making out people have said something that they quite clearly haven’t.

No I’m not saying that, which is why you’re saying that I am. It’s pretty clear which path they’ll take and it will be already established path from the region. Europe, including us. The pieces will be arriving on our beaches, we will be powerless and have no influence on their decision to come...

How naive is it to say it’s not the West’s responsibility. Who else is going to pick up the pieces? Russia? China? Iran? Do me a favour. It will be the West, no one will be crossing a continent on foot to find refuge in Russia, China won’t be doing fundraising for the inevitable refugees so that...

And yet they still come. And from much further away too. Maybe we should get involved. So people aren’t displaced by turning a blind eye to the people who create refugees.

Until the refugees turn up on our beaches in small boats.

I agree. Certainly not with the government we have. I have no doubt they see the events of the last week as a gift. As you said, hence Shapps interview this morning.

Some of the scenes starting to come out of Gaza are horrific. The hospitals especially. Also starting to see an exodus of people taking all they carry. Very reminiscent of WW2.

Threaten a ban on the sales of arms and technical assistance on arms to them. That would soon buck their ideas up.

In Northern Ireland amongst republicans there’s been sympathy with Gaza especially for decades. It’s not unusual in the north to pass a catholic area and see a Free Gaza sign. They see a similarity between themselves being occupied and Gaza being occupied.

To not behave like terrorists in retaliation would be a good starting point.

Hasn’t Israel fired 3000 into Gaza? By that standard and using your own logic that must mean Hamas is the victim here.

And where do they go?
