She didn't express entitlement at all. She was being nice.

I suppose we have different opinions of nice.

I do feel disgusted. But I can’t do anything about it at the end of the day, can I?

You can do a lot. You can refuse to march alongside those that say it, you can call out anyone that says it. You can report any instances to CAA and CST and you can express your solidarity with Israelis and Jews in the face of people calling for thes destruction of Israel in that slogan. There is a march against antisemitism on 7 September.

Thank you @sharonellis @SaltAirAndTheRust I was civil.

I don’t go to any marches anyway. So try again.

Marches was one example, I have listed other things you can do.

While I've got your attention please direct me to where I have endorsed and defended the starvation of children.

Much like the accusations of me "defending Hamas", your continual denial of what is happening, your inability to keep to the topic at hand and derail the thread to whip up froth as if saying children shouldn't be starved is a form of anti-Semitism, and constantly throwing attacks at others amounts to the endorsement and defence of the genocide to be honest

@SaltAirAndTheRust I think you've lost the room (hope you have anyway) with your insistence on defending Hamas from the accusation that they have committed war crimes.

She is not defending them. She is pointing out how you only require convictions or exact evidence on one side.

Tulip, I'm not even sure it's worth it anymore. Yet again, a thread highlighting the absolute atrocities in Gaza has been derailed and ran down by the same few users in order to prevent discussion about what Israel are doing.

Are you also requiring evidence that Hamas committed war crimes or do you accept that they have?

@sharonellis is one of the most patient, tactful and courteous amongst us. I've not seen her for do any of that.

Yeah, because screaming “genocide denier” at someone who doesn’t share your opinion in no way contributes to derailing a thread, does it?

But she was asking for evidence of Hamas's war crimes as if everyone didnt know Hamas were holding hostages which is an unequivocal war crime.

Dangermoo · 23/08/2025 17:13

I am still waiting for that poster to tell us her interpretation of river till the sea. For one of the many calling genocide, you would think she would be as focused on preventing genocide part 2.

Israel currently occupies the whole area between river and the sea.

The slogan calls for freedom. Israel are actively enacting from the river to the sea - do you have a problem with words but not actual occupation?

So you just want everybody to agree with you. Blimey, you're the first to admit two things today. The death slogan meaning what it does and that this is an echo chamber.

Because I was pointing out the blatant hypocrisy of constantly demanding sources and denying their truth when they disagree with your opinion.

As I said. The same few posters have derailed a thread about Israel's atrocities to prevent them being discussed.

No, I didn't admit that at all.

I said that the same few posters spend their time on the CITME board, spamming each thread about Israel and whipping each other into a froth, to prevent discussion about what Israel are doing.

Nobody said they had done anything to justify genocide. Stop moving the goalposts. But Im not spending my time proving Hamas has and is committed/ing countless war crimes. Its like asking us to prove the sun comes up in the morning. Ridiculous.

Because you can't

You actually do believe that. It's why I asked the question when posters are always quick to be cut and dried about Israel's intentions but never against Hamas and a majority of Palestine civilians. Just a thought, if that's what that slogan means, why was there a need to massacre Israelis?

This is wild, honestly.

This board is filled with threads discussing Israel.

This thread is at almost 30 pages of discussions about Israel.

If anyone is attempting to stop you discussing Israel, they are doing a really bad job at it.

Can't prove hamas is committing war crimes??? (Or that the sun comes up in the morning? Do you live in one of the polar circles?)

You don't think 7/10 was a war crime, yet you don't hesitate in concluding Israel are carrying them out. Priceless!

This was originally a thread about the famine in Gaza.

Within 50 posts the same posters who appear on each thread turned up to start talking about Hamas, making accusations and derailing any and all attempts at genuine discussion. It happens every time.
