it's going to be another 'temp buffer zone' that'll accidentally start accruing settlers isnt it

Clear as day. Not calling it out and condemning it at the highest level is a disgrace.

 

 

As soon as anyone calls it out they are immediately shut down with accusations of being anti semetic. Its a classic technique to shut doesnt any legitimate criticism

That’s not fair - Keir Starmer is very concerned about it.

It's time to build a wall around the 1967 borders and say. "get back inside - don't come out otherwise you will be arrested/shot"

 

Thats how they've treated the Palestinians for decades so what's suitable treatment for one is suitable treatment for the other.......right?........ 🤔

Perhaps read it again……….

 

And if you take offence to the words then perhaps take it up with Stephen Kapos, an 88yr old holocaust survivor who recently discussed how the world would react if the tables were turned and the Jewish people were treated in a similar fashion to the Palestinians in Gaza/West Bank

Really good discussion with Tom Fletcher U.N. International Aid Chief where he discusses all the conflicts that need urgent attention, he also discusses the targeting of Red Cross and aid workers

Hmmm...

Not sure how this will go down with the fundamentalist, Trump supporting Christians in America?

It's all very innocent, you see his helmet had slipped forward over his eyes and he mistook the Jesus statue for an injured Palestinian teenager...

Perhaps its a hamas operative hiding inside a carefully constructed “Jesus” suit, 

meanwhile the young generation of Palestinian children otherwise known as “potential Hamas operatives” are successfully blocked from attending their terrorist training camps. All in a days work for these brave settlers who receive funding from within this country

A third of the Lebanese are Christian.

I don't think they'll give a shit. They've been pretty indifferent to the occupation's effects on Christian Palestinians in Bethlehem, Ramallah and Jerusalem. If you don't care what happens to fellow Christians in the places where Jesus was born, died and resurrected... you're not going to be motivated by similar stuff elsewhere.

Interestingly, there are a bunch of Christian Lebanese and other Arab peoples living in Michigan and California. If they come out for the Dems as a result of this and similar war crimes, that could mean something. But probably it won't be electoral significant

It's an occupation. We'll see the usual ethnic cleansing so beloved of Netanyahu and co. The population that have been drive north can't return to their homes if their homes are now just piles of rubble

Cleansing of the terrain of Southern Lebanon is Israel's openly-announced policy.

The Israeli propaganda machine is being exposed and of course………the usual retort against media exposure is a cry of “antisemitism”

So what does taco Trump do when a Chinese tanker decides they are going to go just where they want 

Or when Iran starts flirting missiles around the Gulf states in response to the blockade

In an entirely unpredictable missile strike on the UAE, Project Freedom lasted 10 minutes after the WH press conference yesterday.

Trump pauses Project Freedom one day after launch, citing progress in Iran talks
Shipowners unsurprised by reversal, with one calling it "another TACO"
Strait of Hormuz remains largely empty as passage rights become Tehran's bargaining chip
All eyes on whether Trump's May 14–15 summit with Xi yields any consensus on Iran

China telling 'them' to suck it up and reopen the strait. Would be fully if 'them' turned out to be the US and not Iran 😂

I thought Pete Hegseth was telling us all, only yesterday, that the greatest navy the world has ever seen was going to get the Straits open in no time, for all our benefits, freeing all those stranded ships?

What happened to that then? Surely they had this all worked out beforehand and weren't just making it up as they go along?

Watched Michael Clarkes update - over 1000 ships trapped inside the straits and as many waiting outside trying to get in. May be the US navy's total of 2 in 24/36 hours has made they now realise the difficulty of the task (finally) - and sinking/burning US navy or Commercial ships in the straits is not a good look for voters.

While I have no doubt at all that Israel has a pretty sophisticated SM propaganda machine. Re-posting anything that has Owen Shroyer (used to be employed by Alex Jones on Infowars) content is the equivalent of asking folks to take a Trump Truth Social post at face value. He is a far right propagandist himself who has the very predictable viewpoints of a Christian nationalist and often anti-Semitic far right personalities on his podcast discussing Jewish conspiracy theories.

Interestingly the US Navy cannot operate its Ohio class subs in the Straights easily (they can carry over 100 tomahawks so they'd be quite useful) because it's so shallow, noisy and crowded with commercial shipping... and Iran (AFAIK) still has operational smaller much more agile subs of it's own.

^, took you a while to catch up Nick, 

 

Is there anything falsified in the actual report?, I had a look at other reporting on the issue and it appears to be entirely factual and a true representation of how the propaganda is used/disseminated by the IDF/israeli government

I couldn't give a single shit. You're giving air time to someone who has his own very clear reasons for posting the things he does. They don't align with yours (or anyone else with any critical thinking skills). Simple as that really. You wouldn't re-post anything from Tommy Robinson? Same thing.

TBH, I'd assume so, but at the same time I can't find any credible evidence either way. So I just don't know.
