Of course not. You don’t find it odd that some people constantly feel the need to post laughing emojis on posts about dead women and children? Wouldn’t you imagine that whatever drives their behaviour, the novelty would have worn off by now? The Lounge was always a bit weird but it seems to be getting weirder by the week.

Maybe you should stop including such comments as "Perhaps those who think it is appropriate to post laughing emojis on these posts....." and presenting them with such a clear opening. Just ignore them and minimize the childish glee they derive from provoking you.

Nutty Nic regularly puts laughs on my posts, I just take it as proof that he is, mentally at least, 5 years old.

Nice to see some anti Hamas protests. Let’s hope they can get some momentum and get them out of power

Typically they were trying to disperse peaceful protests by force.

I saw that. Good to see that at least some of the Palestinians realise what the problem is here.

Hopefully a few more people will grasp the fact that innocent Palestinians and Hamas terrorists are different targets.

Do you agree that innocent civilians who have no involvement or support for terrorism are different to Hamas terrorists, or are you saying the level of crossover is about 50,000 and counting?

I'm saying that very unfortunately virtually every war in history has collateral damage and that tragically innocents are killed. Is the ratio of innocent civilians to Hamas terrorists greatly higher than comparable urban wars on average? Or greatly lower?

Would you be okay if Hamas had killed Israeli civilians to the tune of 50k if the situation was reversed?

In your fantasy scenario are Israel led by an elected terrorist organisation who killed and kidnapped hostages which they continue to hold without releasing them? Are you okay with the amount of civilians killed by the allies during World War 2?

I don’t know how you can conflate WW2 with what is happening in Gaza unless you agree that there was genocide also in WW2.

As for the hostages, how anyone can say that it is ok to kill 50,000 civilians in response to some hostages being taken is beyond belief. And you call me a vile person. You know damned well that if Hamas we’re killing this amount of civilians you would be posting about it every day and, heaven forbid, if anyone posted laughing emojis in response you would have a melt down.

If Hamas we’re displacing Israelis in the West Bank from their homes we wouldn’t hear the end of it from you.

It doesn’t really bother you that the elected government in Israel are acting just as badly as Hamas. Dead Muslims aren’t  an issue for you so it is easy to turn a blind eye to Netanyahu and his government’s actions.

I had lunch with an old friend today and he was telling me about his thesis he is writing about self-righteous left wing pensioners in Kent. He said most of them are over compensating for their past. SOG’s obsession with Muslims and bringing it up at every turn is clearly him trying to put right something in the past

"...in response to some hostages being taken...."

@sadoldgit it would appear that in your rush to make a point/ insult another poster, you've let a mask slip with that comment.

It would fall into being a vile thing to say. Perhaps those who you say are calling you that have a point?

You don’t see a difference between taking people hostage and killing tens of thousands of other people?

Given a choice I’m thinking that being taken hostage is preferable to being blow apart or buried under a building. 

The poster I replied to was intimating that the activities of 7th October were enough to justify laying Gaza to waste and killing tens of thousands of  women and children. No mask here. Personally I don’t think that the response is, in any universe, justifiable or proportionate.

He also tried to conflate WW2 with what is happening in Gaza at the moment as if Hamas is in any way comparable to any of the main forces in that war. The combatants in WW2 fought with similar munitions and equipment. I am sure you can see the difference between what the IDF have at their disposal to wage war against Hamas (and the civilians in Gaza) and what they have in response. It is a turkey shoot is it not. Civilians could leave the areas being bombed during WW2. The people in Gaza are trapped. But then you know that yet chose to dig me out and support the person who posts laughing emojis in response to what has been described as genocide. Perhaps it is your mask that is slipping?

Jesus wept.  Good old Soggy and his binary world.

I guess being taken hostage isn't that much of a serious crime.

Perhaps, like his view of some child abuse offences, it's "relatively trivial" and that the Hamas atrocities were "not the biggest crimes in the world."

Mind you, this is the guy who told us the hostages were safer with Hamas. I thought of that when I saw footage of some of the releases. The baying crowds, obviously turning out to say goodbye to their friends. The masks to hide the tears of saying goodbye. And the guns because, although the hostages desperately wanted to stay, Hamas had to practically force them to go.

Now we can add that the hostages must have been spending their captivity thinking of all the things it was "preferable" to.

Only in SOGWorld.
