Starmer’s support for Palestine

Steph888 · 21/09/2025 15:39

Am I alone in seeing this as one of the darkest days in UK history?

Never before did I think I’d end up living under a government who reward terrorism.

Starmer and Labour are grotesque. History will not be kind to them. They have now empowered all terrorists and their supporters.

We deserve such better than this reprehensible government. They disgust me.

So who's feeding the donkeys?

YourAmplePlumPoster · 05/10/2025 10:45

Why are the protesters out? Because they want Israel wiped off the map. That’s what from the river to the sea means.

Exactly.

Israel has stopped bombing Gaza, so the "genocide" as they call it, has stopped. Netanyahu says that he is expecting some hostages to be released in the next few days

So we shouldn't be seeing any more marches now unless there is an ulterior motive for them...

Yes.. i wonder where all the hate is going to go when please gd the war ends.

Mihrimah · 04/10/2025 08:38

Is that why you keep posting article after article on Islam like you did above from centuries ago

your off the topic

and your very very clearly Islamophobic

this is about genocide in Gaza

Humanity not religion

Free Palestine 🇵🇸

Not worried about the hostages?

Maybe they will do something useful for a change, like go to work..

Mihrimah · 01/10/2025 12:49

You sound Islamophobic

I sound human

go out and see how many Jews have spoken out GENOCIDE against HUMANITY

This isn’t about faith anymore

it’s about human rights and killing children, which if you are a human, would affect you

I would speak up the same if Israeli children were being starved and shot waiting in a line for a bag of flour

atrocities on either side are unacceptable

but genocide and starvation on the Gaza population comprising of majority children where their limbs are torn off and then not being allowed to leave the country for treatment!

waiting in queues for food and then being shot!

You seem to have an issue with Islam and bringing up random articles

All Islamic related

Your hatred for Islam has overshadowed all sense and humanity

Goodbye pollypaintsflowers

i really wish you peace no matter how deep your hatred runs for humanity

Edited

Did you in fact speak up when Israeli families were being tortured and burned alive??

I do not know any country engaged in war expected to feed and water the enemy. And before you say Gazans are not Hamas, a large proportion of them managed to breach the border and inflict depravity never seen before on October 7th.

Mihrimah · 05/10/2025 19:59

People can march for as long as they want

we live in a free country

people will and have been continuing to march all over the world

Palestine,

You will heal
You will rebuild your homes
your dreams, your hopes

You will overcome the tragedies like you have done so, over and over again, in the last 75 years through brutal oppression

Leve Palestina
Long live Palestine 🇵🇸

Israel never stopped bobbing Gaza, even before 7/10 😢

That was 'peace' apparently.

He has studied the Israeli,Palestinian conflict his entire life

He is Jewish and his family were victims of the holocaust

he’s far more qualified and knowledgeable than all of us put together on this matter and has done extensive research into both sides

He's also a supporter of Hamas And Hezbollah and thought the October 7th attacks were great.

PollyPaintsFlowers · 03/10/2025 05:47

On the contrary,no was agreeing with @Mihrimah that the conflict didn't start on October 7th

Although if you want to talk about religions evolving, some have. Others still think it's ok for old men to marry 9 year old girls and wage holy wars. The crusades are over, jihads and Intifadas are still going. And if you look at Hamas' charter they clearly state this is a religious battle for them. I'm afraid Gaza is already regressive

Religions don’t evolve, human societies do.
Child & forced marriage continues to be an issue in the fringes of all human societies regardless of marriage.

Mihrimah · 09/10/2025 21:42

People from all over the world, regardless of race, religion, language, culture are not just speaking up against the ongoing killing of children, but also going to aid them

Norwegian doctor, Mads Gilbert,
been going to Gaza for over 30 years
Irish doctors, British doctors,
English plastic surgeon, Dr Victoria Rose,
Ms Rachel, actors and actresses, the list goes on…

are you going to accuse all of them of religious battle too @PollyPaintsFlowers

seems like your issue is still with Islam
but these people aren’t even Muslim! 😂

International human rights organizations, including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and B’Tselem, have declared Israel an apartheid state.

In 1997, Mandela gave a speech in which he famously stated, “We know too well that our freedom is incomplete without the freedom of the Palestinians.”

That was 1997!

'Depraved' just doesn't cover it.

Depraved doesn’t even begin to cover the brutal killing and man made famine and starvation of children two years on

limbs torn and bodies burnt, children ‘deliberately’ targeted in the head and chest

Read the UN report
Its verified
almost 60 percent of casualties are under the age of 15

the article you posted above @peasporrige has the word unverified mentioned around 3 times in
the article itself says it
“the post cannot confirm its authenticity” twice

Killing 18457 children is depraved.
Just try and let that number sink in

the starvation is also real

@Mihrimah "and man made famine and starvation of children two years on"

The food is there - ask the UN why they aren't distributing it.

"almost 60 percent of casualties are under the age of 15" well as half of Gaza's population is under 18 so, statistically, that's not surprising.

It begs the question as to why people are producing children when they have to rely on overseas aid to feed them? Why should others foot the bill for their irresponsibility?

Just before these children were born in 2018 the US government, announced it was stopping its funding to the UN Relief Works and Agency after determining the organisation to be an “irredeemably flawed operation”. (ie infiltrated by Hamas)
Despite this reduction in aid the population still chose to produce children. So IMO these people are authors of their own misfortune.
