Sorry returned and we'll there was relative safety. Surely that's a reasonable thing? It was a specific attack of one nation against another with ballistic missiles...

As is so often the case your post makes no sense.

@mids2019 I don't understand what you mean?

@anotherlevel I am not sure that's what @SharonEllis meant tbh. Even I would have been astounded to find no empathic posts on this thread.

It is scrapping the bottom of the metaphorical barrel though when you look around this section.

Thanks, and @EasternStandard

I would have thought it was obvious I was not referring to this thread as I referred to 'thread after thread'.

That's disappointing.

Well that's not exactly true is it. Let's have a look at some I've found on this thread.

My thoughts are with all those who have friends and family in the region, I wish them peace and safety at this scary unpredictable time. - Dulra

I am so sad for those in Israel, 7/10 was beyond heartbreaking and it must be terrifying now. - Sweetsakura

Omg its breaking news right now. Of course its about thinking of those in Israel as its under attack. It’s not a competition. - eachandeveryone

Thinking of everyone who has family and friends in Israel. - needhelpwiththisplease

I'm thinking of all those in Israel at this moment

I'm not religious so no prayers but I hope everyone keeps safe - herecomesautumn

I'm not sure you quite understand? You're referencing comments directly from this thread...🤷🙍 Wow

Centrally · 05/10/2024 21:02

Oh and now I see that questioning the OP who hasn't returned to the thread is a deletable offence. Well done Mumsnet.

Scirocco · 05/10/2024 21:02

stomachamelon · 05/10/2024 20:59

@Scirocco in light of other threads Mumsnet can be the judge of that.
Do you?

Do I what?

aw this will just turn into yet another Jewish hating thread
Disagreeing with the actions of the Israeli government and the IDF doesn't mean posters are "Jewish hating"

aw this will just turn into yet another Jewish hating thread

once upon a time, the Jewish religion was the 3rd religion in the UK...

and yes whoever mentioned genocide - that is exactly what the terrorist group did to Jewish people in Israel on Oct 7th 2023...

I so hope the hostages are alive, and returned home one day.

Sorry the thread had moved on. That was aimed at the 'questionable motives' comment.

Did you mean that you agree with the poster's concerns about the motives behind the thread?

@stomachamelon what do you mean, 'wolf in sheep's clothing'?

@stomachamelon wolf in sheep's clothing - what's that supposed to mean

Look how angry everyone gets at any concern for Israeli civilians

People are angry because it is calculated, it is singling out one group over all other innocent people in the region. There is no need for it. How angry and incensed would you be with any poster that started a thread singling out Lebanese and Palestinians when Israeli citizens were also under threat? And you would be right to.
