U.S. President Donald Trump called for Israel to pardon Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu or cancel his corruption trial, saying the U.S. would save him like it did his country.

No way will Netanyahu ever face genocide charges in court.

Corruption charges, I might buy but not genocide. If he is guilty of corruption, then he's made his own bed. I find the whole genocide saga has been made into a circus. Not, of course, the outcome of civilians killed, but it's a lynch mob frenzy, which devalues real genocide.

@Dangermoo I agree with you on many aspects of the 7/10. My thinking is that Netanyahu should still be accountable for the 2019 corruption charges, genocide charges probably not, as long as there is a concerted effort to safely get more aid to people effected.

Israel was one of the strongest and most successful liberal democracies in the world until the recent court changes which Netanyahu enacted. Trying to avoid charges, changing the judiciary etc for his own benefit is shameful. The Israeli people deserve better.

Starving babies, children, women, the elderly, the disabled, unarmed men is not an 'anti-terrorism mission' it is a genocide
Not to mention all those poor animals
What Israel has done is off the scale
I just don't see how anyone can support that unless they are deeply anti- human

If I was living in the U.K. I’d be more worried about the ignorance and ill-informed people.

Oh so you all haven’t been a regular on genocide watch website then?
Is it because you are so narrow minded you can’t see any other issues as important as Palestine? Even in your own country?

I think the reason why people in the UK aren’t worried about your supposed genocide that you claim is about to happen is because we have laws and the police to prevent such things. How many people got arrested after the vial, racist attacks which happened last summer? Lots.

People are protesting about a real genocide in Gaza because the IDF are shooting and killing people indiscriminately. And the Israeli government constantly say, “Whoopsie, we’ll investigate”.

No one believes them any more, and people want it to end. The Israeli government do not. Shame on them.

This thread was a decent discussion until it veered into the Dunning-Kruger Twilight Zone.
Crying 'genocide in the UK' without naming a perpetrator, plan, or proof isn’t raising awareness — it’s derailing with drama. Yes, discrimination exists. But throwing around the term 'genocide' whenever you're losing an argument isn’t brave, it’s lazy.
Genocide Watch outlines warning signs, not certainties. If you're going to cite it, try reading it first.

You are a British Muslim. Have you not been subjected to Islamophobia?

All minorities in almost every country will face some level of hate. Don't you agree? So once again, who is trying to GENOCIDE British Muslims as per your claim?

I hate the pro Palestine movement as much as I hate the just stop oil movement.
Both pathetic. Both with tendencies to vandalise important things and both have a disregard for the country they live in.
Mad how people cry ‘hate’ but don’t see an issue with lumping all of the Jewish community as zionists.

Who is lumping all Jewish people as zionists? I don’t think anyone has mentioned that on this thread. People hate the fact that the Israeli government are waging a disproportionate response in Gaza. Not everyone in Gaza is an islamist fundamentalist either. And yet they are being bombed, shot and starved to death. Every day.

Its a topic people don't want to comprehend as its clearly just another way to get the discussion off Gaza and onto anything else, literally anything else.

No, they didn't. They didn't even come back to inform who is trying to genocide British Muslims like me.

It would be great if the Anti-Romani hostility, prejudice, discrimination, racism, and xenophobia was highlighted more so I would be with them on that journey

This thread went full on Dunning-Kruger effect yesterday evening.

It is an opinion of many that if you are governed by a terrorist government you will not get west sympathy until said government is gone.
It disturbing how many of MN posters care more about a foreign country than their resident country.
It’s disturbing to see all these people cry genocide’ when genocide watch says it’s potentially going to happen in the uk.

To whom?

ssd · 27/06/2025 08:52

The pro Israeli posters have run out of excuses for this genocide, so they are now going down the rabbit hole of bampot conspiracy theories.

I guess desperation does that to people.

According to that poster and others who agree with them:

Muslims in Gaza = No genocide!

Muslims in Britain = Risk of genocide!

This is one of the most bat shit things I have read on mumsnet.

I've been out all evening and not been paying attention to this thread and it's gone completely bizarre. I have never in my life heard of people in the UK being at risk of a genocide. Oh I do miss the laugh emoji!
