I would be genuinely interested to know how those criticising Israel would answer the following questions Do you think that Israel has the right to exist? Do you think that Israel has the right to defend itself? If the answer to either of the above questions is no then 2 follow up questions 1. Why?...

Think about it, if Hamas had just released the hostages then they wouldn't have had to shoot the dying toddler on the ground when he tried to move.... It makes sense. Just think if Hamas hadn’t committed mass slaughter and taken hostages they’d have been no conflict in Gaza..... it makes sense. Wel...

Stop attacking them? Do you have any f**king idea how many Israeli's have been killed by rockets fired from Gaza in the last 30 years.. go on guess?.. I'll give you a clue it's less than one a year. yet you crawl in here saying it's all their fault that an occupying force is killing them in their t...

Comparing kidnap victims with criminals being punished .... Not a great look. 14 year olds being 'punished' for throwing stones or just being in an area where stones are thrown doesn't really equate to them being criminals in my book. If a 14 year old and his mates when to any town or city centre i...

There are no hostages held by Israel. There are people being held in prisons either waiting trial or serving sentences. That is a world away from being held in Hamas tunnels.

Per head of population the October 7th Attacks were far more deadly than 9/11 About 1000 Israeli's were killed out a population of 9,000,000 Scaling up to reflect the population sizes it would be the equivalent of 30,000 Americans being killed or 10,000 Britons being killed in one terrorist attack....

You're talking to a person who thinks one person being killed is the same as a thousand people being killed... Not sure what to say about that...Stalin would have probably have approved though. Stalin had the sense not to attack a neighbour who was 100’s of times more effective at killing. Nice to ...

I do think Israel is taking this too far. no siht? Mind you it is very clear that Hamas is a bunch of terrorists son of b. and that they happily use Palestinian people suffering, encouraging it for their purposes. Otherwise they could have just freed all the civilians hostages to stop this. Neverth...

"This" has been going on since at least 1948. Hamas fighters today most saw family members slaughtered by Israel in one of its previous lawnmowing exercises. The Gazan children of today will have nothing but hatred in their hearts for Israel and who could blame them for being the freedom fighters o...

Given there's over 2000 Palestinian's being held indefinitely without charge (or hostages if you prefer) Israel are getting a bargain only having to give up 3/4 of them. Well 1999.

Hamas has 40% support from Palestinians but the slaughter of concert goers and burning of babies has 80% support. Incredibly, it appears Hamas isn't extreme enough for them.
