Does it matter that it's not 'officially in the Israeli charter' to kill the civilians if they're killing thousands of civilians? Also, I'd have thought the settlements we're pretty much the embodiment of ethnic cleansing... you know, getting rid of people from a specific area to replace them with ...

Uh oh.

I seem to remember the yanks saying if Hezbollah went in they'd blow up Iran's oil infrastructure.

Although not sure if that was an official position or just one senator ranting on Twitter.

It's also strange one that the side not 'trying to wipe out the other one'... historically kills ten times more civilians. No it's not. Israel have advanced warning systems, intelligence networks and bomb-shelters for their citizens. Hamas prefer to spend their money on building tunnels for suicide...

Does everyone on the thread realize that the terrorist group Hamas actually have a stated aim of terrorizing and killing as many Israelis as they can. I think we need Mog to remind us in absolutely every post he makes at least 3 times a page. It appears that we do. Because different posters keep re...

I honestly feel like Israel have had enough and are going to flatten Gaza. I can't say I hope they "flatten" Gaza. That would be terrible and lead to much suffering. If I have a "hope" of anything, it's that they capture and kill the Hamas leadership with as much surgical precision and lack of coll...

Because it is better to have a secret unstated aim to wipe the other out? So you are telling me one of the worlds strongest militaries have had a covert aim to wipe out Palestinians for the last 75 years They are doing a pretty shite job of it then. They do as much as they can without causing an un...

Again, this stuff is all sad, but ultimately irrelevant to whether or not gangs of thugs deliberately targeting civilians for kidnapping, rape and murder, etc. is justified or even quote, "understandable". And if that's not the intention, then what is? Everyone knows it's a brutal shitshow over ther...

Mog The Almighty

Some very basic flaws in your logic here. Palestinians are not Arab , they're Semites. The physical location in question is Palestine, a name it's been known as for thousands of years. Israel, is a state ,new born out of terrorism only 75 years ago , having never existed in recorded history. The cu...

Not sure if this is the right spot but it’s going here. When I was 39 my wife was diagnosed with stage 4 bowel cancer (it was found on her 37th birthday).

Do you enjoy music? Learn an instrument and join / form a local band and play some gigs. Musicians don't really grow old, I've seen them in their 40s and 50s more stress-free than the average 30 yr old. I think science even speaks on the mental benefits of playing an instrument.

My advice, for whatever that is worth, is to try new things. Learn new skills or get a new hobby. Don't be afraid to be a big kid - although I would advise against making your new skill or hobby being awesome at Call of Duty. Look at this way ... if you're 45, you've got 5 years until you're 50.

As usual it sounds like you’ve already made your mind up. That's a strange take. I guess you didn't read my entire reply there. Thanks for the recommendation anyway.

Don't buy Ryobi - they are trash. From what I have heard, this is a common but unfair judgement. I know it's trendy to shit on Ryobi.

I find it deeply disturbing and strange that when a group who has vowed to wipe the opposing people from the earth launch 5000 rockets in 20 minutes followed by gangs of murderous thugs storming the border and dragging screaming young women into their vans who are so terrified they are literally shi...

What exactly is the difference in your opinion? Hamas is an organisation that once flew a nuclear mushroom cloud on their flag. Their chartered political goal is the complete annihilation of Israel and the murder of every Jew on earth. They look forward to a time, predicted by Koranic prophecy that...

:uhoh: If you took the quote in full context, it would be clearer what I meant. One fifth of the Israeli population are Palestinian-identifying Muslims. And they live peacefully there, together. That was my point. Israel's political charter is one that looks forward to peaceful co-existence. Not mu...

I quoted the bit most relevant to was responding to. And yes, it was intentional. Sometimes I’m lazy and quote a great slab of text when I’m only responding to one or two sentences. This time I clipped the bits that weren’t pertinent to point I was making. Terrorism is at root a political strategy....

Mog The Almighty

One reason is that terrorism is typically defined along these lines: use of physical force for political ends by non-state groups or individuals. That rules out the IDF. Come to that, I can't recall many accusations of Mossad as being a terrorist organisation when it bumped off an innocent waiter N...

The UN in 1948 was a very different organisation to the one today. Most countries in the world weren't in it because they were still colonies of those that were. Britain had less right to govern Palestine than it did Ireland and certainly no right to give its territory to European planters. It was ...

140 UN Resolutions condemning Israel in the last 9 years alone??

Yes, but Israel has to answer the US. That is also a prime reason they won't/can't do it. They have to answer to the rest of the world. As does Palestine and Hamas. There's a reason the international community almost unanimously consider Hamas to be a terrorist organization and not Israel. It's not...

What you're saying is that it was a religious motivation for the Zionists? Yes, on this, you are right. But for the Palestinians, it started with losing their homes.

That was nothing. The Portuguese player was acting the football player before he was even on the ground.

Before any religion, it is a territorial war. You have people who lived there who were told to pack up and make space for a new state. They lost their lands, and their homes. Surprisingly, some did not take it well. And started fighting. Religion came after, and is just a pretext to unit a broader ...
