  1. More or less everyone who hates Israel is anti-Semitic. As proved by the massive increase in anti-Semitic violence every time there is an upsurge in "criticism of Israel".

  2. Anti-Semites love to whine that they can't attack Israel without being called anti-Semitic. Maybe they could find another country to obsessively and viciously hate. . . . . . .

  3. Funny how attacks on Jews always spike at the same time as "disapproval of Israeli actions" spikes isn't it? Almost like it's the same people doing both. . . . . . .

  4. Half a million British children abused by Muslim gangs. Where was your outrage then?

  5. The favourite line of the anti-Semites: "I'm just criticising Israel". And of course they're invariably the same people who think criticising Islam should lead to a prison sentence. 🙄

  6. There is near 100% overlap between the two groups.

  7.  @TheSupahJaws  If you think Jews should be supplying people who openly wish to annihilate them - then yeah, that does sound kinda sus. . . . . . .

  8.  @TheSupahJaws  If you think Jewish people should have to supply people who want all of them gone - then yes you do sound rather sus. Why do you hold them to a standard that no-one else is ever held to?

  9.  @gregarmstrong2500  Why do Israel have a responsibility to supply the enemy in time of war? Who else is expected to do that? Did Nato send hampers to the Taliban when we were fighting them in Afghanistan?

  10.  @gregarmstrong2500  Oh and BTW - "international Law" is a liberal fairy tale: it doesn't exist. You can't have a law with no generally accepted over-arching body to write and enforce it.

  11. @itube027 Shall we compromise on 90%?

  12.  @gregarmstrong2500  You didn't answer my question - which other country is expected to supply the enemy in time of war? If the Gaza leadership care about their people (which they don't) they could always release the hostages as Israel demands. "If you disagree with that, take it up with the Red Cross and the UN." How about you take it up with the much vaunted "international court of justice" who didn't agree with your claim? Personally I couldn't care less about such irrelevant organizations and their silly play-acting at being a world-government: but if you do, maybe you should respect their judgement. . . . . . .

  13. @bethanp3453 "The long answer is too tedious to type" Lol. Thanks for admitting you don't actually know anything about the subject and can only repeat vague buzzwords you've heard other people say. You're all the same you ham as shills. BTW: since you obviously don't know this - Israel withdrew unilaterally and totally from Gaza in 2005. So maybe bother to look up the facts before throwing around words you don't understand like "occupy".

  14.  @gregarmstrong2500  "Any country, in the position that they controlled the sole water supply to a civilian population" Which Israel doesn't and never has. Gaza is supplied by it's own wells, and shares a border with Egypt as well as Israel. The mere fact that the population is still alive after months of war - proves your premise to be false. So. . . . . .nice try kid.

  15.  @gregarmstrong2500  Lol - first you make a flat out false claim, that Israel controlled all the water, then when I correct you, you copy-and paste some spiel that affirms exactly what I just told (you obviously didn't read it) : and now you're whining that I'm "patronizing" you? I am being incredibly patient with you kid. But this isn't your local pro ham as march where you can just get away with spreading propaganda. Here - your going to be corrected when you lie. If you don't like it - get better propaganda kid. "how do you expect their to be enough water?" Not my problem kid - and not Israelis problem either. They're clearly fine for water since it's been months since Israel stopped supplying it to them, and I don't care that the people who cheered Oct 7th are uncomfortable

  17.  @gregarmstrong2500  Thanks for admitting that your complaint isn't actually about a lack of water: but by Israel not showing a level of generosity to people who want them not to exist that you think is appropriate. "my position is based on protecting innocent lives. Yours is based on collective punishment" It's called "war" . You support the Islamic terrorists in that war, and I support the liberal democracy. I'm fine with my choice. "You were patronising me" You lied. I called out your lies. Cry me a river if you don't like it kid. "we aren't going to convince each other" No - because my opinion is based on facts and your is based on irrational hatred of one particular ethnic group. Neither of those can be changed by the other.

  18. I think Jews were more or less drummed out of the party under Corbyn.

  19. - The left hates the west. - Israel is a symbol of the west. - Therefore they must hate Israel.
