What’s your prediction of the next cause the ‘activists’ are going to move into, after Gaza?

Netanyahu is a war criminal who must be brought to justice. But you need to widen your news sources - not talking about you tube rubbish - reputable news sources as it’s not balanced to say just Israel have murdered and maimed since the cease fire. Hamas should not be part of the future for Gaza and it’s a tragedy that they are mobilising and consolidating power.

They will be waiting for instructions re what their next belief should be. Friend of mine (socialist worker) gets bused around the country marching.
Never was useful idiot so appropriate
I think it is about appearing virtuous and believing themselves to be a 'good person'
Once they have decided who is the oppressor and who is the oppressed they can justify any behaviour. That's how they shout at and abuse women who are meeting to discuss women's rights. They are oppressors so all abusive behaviour is acceptable

As always, no mention of Hamas breaking the ceasefire as the reason for any Israeli retaliation.

Absolutely. It’s crystal clear. Both “sides” are equally heinous. Why is it so difficult to hold both truths in your head at the same time? Seems impossible to many people.

Just what I was going to say. There's no doubt Netanyahu is absolutely in the wrong but let's not pretend that Hamas are not murderous savages killing their own people.

Oh bore off, OP.
What are you doing to help anyone?
Bugger all, I suspect.

You may not agree with the protests. I might not. But at least they have the wherewithal to get off their arses and make their voices heard.

There’s a question I’d like to ask those who are religious on either side of this war, or any of the others currently raging across the globe. Do you really believe your god wants the destruction of innocent people? I’m admittedly an atheist and my knowledge of religion is limited but surely, your god can’t want this? How can you turn a blind eye to the incredible suffering of innocents because they happen to be on the wrong side of your war?

I don’t think many of the protesters actually care much for Palestinian civilians at all. Whats happening in Gaza is horrifying, the number of people who have been executed in Gaza in the last few days is estimated to be around 100 including kids (I think it was a 5yr old and a 7yr old and their mum) because they couldn’t find their dad. I mean if you genuinely cared about civilians you would be worrying about that, not obsessing over Israel right now. It’s truly awful.

I think this is worth repeating often and loudly.

Yes including Oct 7th.

Do you understand my username?

Including those murdered on October 7th 2024 or do they not fit the prejudicial agenda?

@Ruby1985so nothing then. Quelle surprise.

If the UK was selling weapons to the ADF of course you would see protests.

It will be in support of digital ID and Net Zero or carbon tax.

I will put money on it will never be to support women or Jews. The far left hate both
And they will ignore all minority religions being massacred. Same for Christians in Nigeria

Oh perhaps this should be our guide. See who the petunias are for next.

It's down to the media really. It depends what they focus on to whip up those easily whipped up.

They really should try Nigeria or Sudan. The marchers do not seem to care about African countries for some reason.

Seems like they’re getting bored of Palestine now that it’s a bit awkward talking about Hamas killing Palestinians in the streets.

Your evident glee is palpable,op, and incredibly distasteful. It is possible to abhor both the actions of Hamas and Israel’s attempts to obliterate Gaza. Or perhaps that’s beyond your comprehension.

Some neighbours sell plants outside their house. The causes benefitting from the odd 50p for a hosta cutting have gone from the NHS to BLM to Ukraine to Transrights to Palestine. So I am wondering what’s next…

What an excellent idea! Now if only the 'stop the boats' people had the same idea, just imagine how many homeless and vulnerable people they could help!

Especially with all the spare money they have! But it seems that they would rather give that money to Raise the Colours and the Flag Force groups instead 💁

Oh dear oh dear.

❤️❤️😊😊

There’ll be a break as it’s Winter. Too cold to stomp round the streets. Can’t guess the next left wing bandwagon.

The conflict in Palestine started long before October 7th

September 2023 was the deadliest year on record for children in the West Bank.

The IDF needs no excuse for slaughtering Palestinian children. They've been doing it for decades.
