Ha!! I'll carry on playing the post not the poster, anl like what I like mate, especially posts that call out people's unacceptable views.

I know. I repeat the question, what does that have to do with Israel killing Muslims? Israel don't practice Sharia law. Should we punish Muslims over here using Sharia law?!

Oh the irony.

How does that relate to Israeli's killing 20 innocents to get 1 alleged Muslim van driver?

On the first part. Let's say that back in the day some young Irish lad goes and buys the cakes for an IRA meeting. Helping them. Would it have been ok for the British army to blow up a place where he's staying and kill 20 innocents? Would those deaths have been on the IRA, or the army? The second part is too daft to address. This isn't WW2. It's not even a war.

The only reasonable answer is no. I'd be interested to know who on here is honest enough to say yes.

Strange part of the article to focus in. To address that, let's assume that he's perhaps a bloke that went to a Hamas meeting, or drives a Hamas vehicle. They therefore blow his house up killing another 20 innocent people. Is that reasonable in your opinion?

UN human rights council have backed a resolution for a weapons ban on Israel for its war conduct. Only 6 nations opposed the resolution. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/world-middle-east-68738452?ns_mchannel=social&ns_source=twitter&ns_campaign=bbc_live&ns_linkname=660fc902b26acd1fbf33090b%26Why the UN rights council vote on Israel is significant%262024-04-05T12%3A46%3A16.499Z&ns_fee=0&pinned_post_locator=urn:asset:28274bf9-6216-456b-b198-c9808aafc2d8&pinned_post_asset_id=660fc902b26acd1fbf33090b&pinned_post_type=share

I think you've lost your way a bit in your attempt to justify your sympathies on this issue.

I've no doubt about that, although I haven't been told that's how the club feel. My info was a few months ago before the wheels fell off and rolled down the road.

That's their concern as i was told. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised to see him go whatever happens this season. He's just not been good enough with the squad that he has.

That's contrary to something I heard (from someone to be trusted) a wee while ago which essentially was that there were concerns about him if we made it up.

Nutshell. Amen to that.

I've not accused anyone of supporting war crimes.

Have you read the letter I linked? Re children. It's says "The Commissioner General of UNRWA has described the Israeli military operation in Gaza as “a war on children and their future”, observing that more children have been killed in the last four months in Gaza than have been killed in the last 4 years of wars around the world combined". Is that any better than the behaviour of Hamas on 7/10? It's certainly on a bigger scale. Re degrading behaviour it says "The abuse of Palestinian civilians has touched every sector of society. The UN Special Rapporteur on torture has cited reports of mass detention, ill-treatment and enforced disappearance of Palestinians in Northern Gaza. Six UN experts have condemned the arbitrary detention, disappearance, deliberate targeting and extrajudicial killing of women and children in Gaza.Your Government is seeking a “full explanation” of allegations of arbitrary detention, torture and humiliation of medical staff from Al Nasser Hospital". Are the Israeli's any better than Hamas? Again, their actions are on a bigger scale. That's the tip of the iceberg. There's the destruction of medical facilities, the use of famine as a weapon, etc etc. I'm glad that 600+ leading academics, judges, lawyers, etc, have more about them than a few on this thread.

Probably best that he didn't given how obtuse he's been of late.

Can't disagree with any of that.

Israel do not want a Palestinian state. They've confirmed that recently. Their actions in the west bank, settlements etc, make it clear that they seek to erode what the Palestinians have. You, naively, seem to believe that if Hamas change their ways the problem goes away. Two states, as a principle, is a start but ISRAEL DO NOT WANT PALESTINE TO EXIST AT ALL (as we're shouting to get points across, I thought I'd join in).

And definitely not by carrying on as they are. Agreeing the principle of two states is a start.

Yeah, free the hostages and eliminate Hamas. Great idea, that'll sort it. Or something.

Doubtless they'll be along later mate. Thankfully some sensible people will likely turn up too.
