Well, recent history tends to end badly for those who attempt genocide of the Jews.

Netanyahu is finished. The first duty of any country is to protect its citizens, and his administration was caught napping, leading to the biggest loss of Jewish life since the Shoah.

In fact you can play my new quiz at Sporcle, "Gaza or Dubai", to see if you can spot the difference.

I bet you've been waiting years to use that one.
It puts me in mind of a really terrible chat-up line that invokes Bedrock.

Behaving like animals in Gaza looting and ransacking the aid compound. They'll be hungry and cold by Christmas. Not thought it through again.

Re: Palestine v Israel.
Desperate people do desperate things in desperate circumstances. Your moral opprobrium and dehumanisation just ignores so much about the situation. So much. Carry on like that and you'll soon be calling Palestinians vermin.aufbahrung wrote: ↑Sun Oct 29, 2023 11:40 amBehaving like animals in Gaza looting and ransacking the aid compound. They'll be hung

If order has broken down, that means Hamas are no longer in control, and that's not a bad thing.

Imagine if they behaved civilized? Nothing would have escalated. It would be peaceful there.

If they were civilised people, they never would have driven the native Jews off their land in the first place.
