rhouses The videos coming out of that psy trance party are truly terrifying.

Couldn’t agree more. psy trance? in 2023? really?!

      I hope celtic get done by uefa for their years of propaganda for Palestine. Marxist anti democratic antisemitism which is ironic after their antifascist banner against Lazio.

      Had to laugh at the Russians coming out and saying ‘the targeting of innocent people, children , and old people is completely unacceptable’. 😆
      My eyebrows nearly burst into flames when he said that.

      Genuine question: to what extent is Palestine/Israel analogous to Ukraine/Russia?

        At high level.

        It’s an armed dispute between two states.

        Then there’s the internet…

          Never gonna be peace out there in our lifetime due to the hate and fucked up politics on both sides.

          I think it’s important to remember it’s not the Palestinian state that is at war but the terrorist group based in Palestine called Hamas who are supported by various other regimes across the world

            Gallagher tobacco (b&h, Silkcut, hamlet etc) who I worked for for years, got caught funding Hamas.
            There was a parliamentary enquiry and then the old boy network kicked in because Sir Peter Wilson was the chairman and also ex Cambridge. Absolutely fucking disgusting and never really got to the bottom of why they were funding them.

            Hursty it’s not the Palestinian state that is at war but the terrorist group based in Palestine called Hamas

            Hamas have been the de facto government of the West Bank for almost 20 years following them winning the 2006 election.

              benson quite right, and also true that most Afghans were not part of the Taliban

                  Hursty quite right, and also true that most Afghans were not part of the Taliban

                  Hamas won 44.45% of the vote in the last election held in the West Bank, more than any other party.

                  Were you suggesting no sanctions be made against Russia because not all Russians support Putin?

                    I’m talking about the fact most people involved are innocent people who want to get on with their lives and it’s the minority who are in power which spoil it for them

                      Hursty were you making that same argument with Russia? Because the respective situations with the two governments seems quite similar.

                      While Hamas may ultimately be shooting itself in the foot and harming the people under its rule long-term with its actions in the same way that Putin’s government has been, the suggestions that it is doing so without some significant support appears false in the same way that there is still a reasonable chunk of the Russian population that continues to back Putin.

                          Down the k-hole again zacko? Must be like one long DMT trip. Say hi to funky.

                          hugopal what choice do they have in both countries? It’s kitchen table politics for the majority, voice your opinion outside of it and life becomes exceedingly difficult

                              Must be true if Muhammed says it on twitter . I can’t tell if you want me to give a shit? You’d be reversing over cunts if your kids were at that gig or on the receiving end of a beheading. Casualties of war. Probably Hamas soldiers and dead anyway, hardly on a par with beheading toddlers and babies you simp. They want to be glad they were afforded to be dead I reckon. Or is all this the CIA up to their old tricks again?
                              Anyhow animals killing animals. They are all fucking stupid pointless cunts. 🔨

                              hugopal if you have no grasp of history then shut the fuck up

                                  Happened across a pretty neutral and transparent Q&A session with experts on the BBC… appreciated the reporting. Only to realize it was damage control after having stories with “Israelis killed” vs “Palestinians died” as descriptors, rightfully being called out on the internet.

                                  erik if you have no grasp of history then shut the fuck up

                                  Another well reasoned and substantiated post - did you also bury your dad last week?

                                    It’s pointless trying to figure out the rights and wrongs of this whole sorry situation. I think we’re well past that now.

                                      C_J It’s pointless trying to figure out the rights and wrongs of this whole sorry situation.

                                      This is what Hugo thrives on, the political weeds!

                                        It’s impossible to know how much of the population of Gaza Hamas represents given that they havn’t had any elections in years.

                                          Cankles-McJeggings This was more a suggestion that no media outlet anywhere was about to suggest the sovereign country of Israel was doing anything wrong. Hamas gets accused of it continuously.

                                            C_J Next you’ll be telling us how hard it is to tax rich people!
