Kneecap and now this.....There are some absolute fits playing at Glastonbury and I am sure there are some virtue signalling loons cheering this.

Hope turnpike throw the book at them.

"But it's OK to wipe out Gaza? It's OK to bring in settlers from all over the world and try to push out Palestinians from their ancestral homes..

I'm glad Louis Theroux did the documentary"

But it's OK to murder 1,195 people including 36 children on the 7th October attack and to launch rockets from Gaza at civilian areas...

I'm glad the BBC did the documentary: "Surviving October 7th: We Will Dance Again".

Look we can easily go back on forth on this but if you genuinely genuinely want to see an end to the conflict in Gaza then call for the release of the remaining hostages and call for Hamas to step down from power and rally in support of those Gazans opposing Hamas.

Nobody is as abhorrent as terrorists. As for blindly supporting the Israeli government, I will tell you why I support it - with my eyes wide open. I couldn't begin to imagine being a race, where you've got so much hatred towards you. To have seen the worst real genocide in history, but even before that, to have endured discriminate persecution in the region just for being born Jewish. Then you've got the celebrations after 7/10 and westerners coming at Israel for daring to strike back. I guess Israel had simply had enough. Hamas got the reaction they wanted, and that includes Liberal luvvies responding in the exact manner intended.

And the fact that the last customer review of the restaurant was on 23 April 2023 leads you to believe that they are open as normal every day and having a cracking time?

Are they making pizzas for themselves?

No it is not and no one justifies it do they? Yet people justify the war crimes happening in Gaza over and over and over

Despite Netanyahu saying the opposite and abandoning all actions that actually led to hostage release. Yes Hamas need to surrender but remember everyone in Gaza is Hamas according to the Netanyahu government and yes the hostages need to be released but Israel will keep going after that looking to control the Gaza strip and moving Palestinian people into smaller areas of land, they are once again being moved south today. And anyway none of that can explain why humanitarian aid is being restricted which is collective punishment and a war crime and why innocent civilians are being shot at when they try to get access to it.

Why don't you contact them and try and make a reservation see how you get on.

Humanitarian aid isn't being restricted. It's being moved away from Hamas control that's all.

@Hamiltonfan You have completely lost your mind if you think showing that there are restaurants open in Gaza means that there is no humanitarian crisis there? In what normal world do the comments on a restaurants social page accuse them of taking babies milk to make sweets?

90% of the population are homeless. It is reported that many people don’t have access to cooking facilities. I’d expect there are lots of places supplying cooked food but the prices would be very high and out of reach for many.

I completely agree. But am just demonstrating that all of Gaza isn't "destroyed" and they seem to have working mobile phones and internet access too.

And you have Hamas to thank for those high prices

The Israeli government and the GHF are very open about the fact that the amount of aid has been restricted. The GHF don’t have the capacity to deliver the amount of aid that is needed. Do you think the Israeli government is lying about this?

Whatever “side” you are on - I think it’s unacceptable for bands in the UK to show support for terrorist groups who kill festival goers.

And shouting “Death to the IDF” without equivalent condemnation of Hamas IS showing support for Hamas .

Kneecap’s satirical references to the conflict in Northern Ireland don’t translate well out of that context. Their support of Hezbollah etc seems a pathetic attempt to seem edgy and relevant

I think these mediocre music bands are using the conflict for their own ends . It’s abhorrent.

Agree

Agreed!

The majority of people living in Gaza do not have internet access.

The overwhelming majority of the population have been displaced from their homes.

Organisations like Connecting Humanity provide internet access to Gaza, people across the world donate E sims to this cause and connecting humanity said they have provided around 10% of the population with esims.

Can we get facts right though, Kneecap did not chant “death to the IDF”.

Nobody should have been allowed in with a flag, that denotes what Hamas wants it to. The real representation of it eludes the west.

Yes - sorry .. I was referring to the other act whose name I can’t remember

I wouldn't worry about remembering names; insignificant clowns deserve no such attention.

Can you not just answer the question with a bit of intelligent thought behind your answer? Seems to be difficult for you, certainly going by most of your contributions to this thread. More interested in point scoring ain’t ya

Their support of Hezbollah etc seems a pathetic attempt to seem edgy and relevant
They have denied this and charges have been dropped

Nobody should have been allowed in with a flag
What flag?

There is frequent internet blackouts which cause chaos for aid distribution. Frankly your minimisation of what is happening is gross

A brief history of the Palestinians. After the war (started by 3 Arab nations), kicked out of Jordan along with Arafat for trying to topple the King, moved into Lebanon and started a civil war with the Christians, moved to Kuwait and supported the invasion led by Sadam Hussein, their Lebanese wing Hezbollah propped up the regime of Assad and killed many Syrians. Israel said to Egypt, take Gaza back if you like and they said, no way, we've got enough of our own Jihadists. Why do you think the surrounding Arab countries haven't taken in Gazan refugees?
