Are we reaching a point where from a journalistic point of view there needs to be a broader approach to conflict in the middle east. It could very well be we are in the agree before a wider regional conflict that could be extremely complex and involve both state and non state actors so the reporting has to be broader in scope.

Also with the extension of the conflict do we all have to acknowledge ithat the middle East situation is complex and can't be simplified by sloganeering? I know many acquaintances that could be described as pro Palestinian now becoming more distant from the conflict as they look at the wider geo political situation and have become more aware of the existential threats to Israel in the region which have been omniprenst.

The cease fire callers are now less vocal as a ceasefire now needs to encompass three parties , Hizbollah, Hamas, Israel and potentially more. As rockets reign down on Israel I think many students for instance are starting to think their protests about Gaza were a little disingenuous. In retropsect.

Can you adjust your title at all please, as it is hard to make sense of it.

The cease fire callers are now less vocal

The opposite of this is true. The calls have ramped up considerably due to the escalating conflict with Lebanon. This is certainly true for the government in England who have repeatedly called for a ceasefire in the last week. BTW i also don't understand the thread title.

I dont really understand the title or the post. I don't know how you edit a title but you can edit your posts for a period after you have posted them.

CarmelaBrunella · 28/09/2024 10:23

Contact MN to edit your thread title as pp have said, it makes no sense.

Your thread title makes little sense to be honest. I gather what you are saying is that now Israel are going to kill thousands of Lebanese and turn it into the new Gaza the BBC should change the focus away from Gaza, even though this population is going through a humanitarian catastrophe.You also think that people are now starting to think ‘oh poor Israel being forced to bomb all these civilian areas’ .

I cannot make head nor tail of what you are on about

Its not only just begin journalists, buildings and Gaza lived under Hamas with UN budgetary concerns. Focusing on carrots and not now occupied fields ask Hezbollah. Everybody Iran destroyed for no good soup.

Nor me.

And type slowly and proof read before posting. I think I get the gist of what you are thinking, but it isn't coming over well in print. @Fescue needs to do the same.

endofthelinefinally · 28/09/2024 13:39

Meant to quote Gunnersforthecup in my post - hence beginning my post with "And".

EasternStandard · 28/09/2024 13:54

Could you rewrite your thread title as it's hard to understand what you mean

I was replying to OP in their own language.

"I know many acquaintances that could be described as pro Palestinian now becoming more distant from the conflict as they look at the wider geo political situation and have become more aware of the existential threats to Israel in the region which have been omniprenst.

More distant from the conflict yes. Many do realise that there are quite a little of terrorist groups in the countries around Israel, funded by Iran that want to wipe Israel out.

That Iranians were recently arrested before a planned terror plot in the UK means showing support for what some term resistance fighters is not great. People are used by terrorists and their propaganda.
