David Icke had post`s removed a week ago on facebook, this seems to be a sensitive subject where business is concerned.
Although given the atrocities of recent days, would not be surprised if a poster went over the top on here last night. |

No, mods got fed up of the Jew haters on here.

Whats the odds that irish will fall out with someone on here, start insulting him and the thread gets pulled?
Big odds on imho.  |
|
By:
I didn't insult anybody yesterday.
Its people like you who have nothing to add and are only trolling that are the problem. |

By:
I do feel for irish C, yesterday I asked him after he was called a racist to tell us he did not actually hate Jews & as he dwelt over the question for around 10 hours the thread got pulled shortly before he was probably about to answer, but it really is not too late to answer even on this thread you know, go on I know you want to answer it.
|
|
By:
In your mind it was ok for me to be called a racist by some moron because I am against the action taken by Israel.
I don't owe you or anybody else an answer on here. Maybe you should inform the forum of your views of the Northern Irish Catholics while you are at it. |
|
By:
Yes it seems like it was ok as you have just had ample opportunity to deny it, you chose not to, you were called a racist & refuse to deny it, against your principles I suspect to lie on something like this so you do have some principles however misdirected.
Anyone who has been to Belfast & seen the artwork of arafat, plo fighters & flags would know a significant minority are extremely pro palestinian or are you actually saying that is not the case ! |
|
By:
My post was only 23 minutes old and irish has already fell out with someone and called them a moron
All I need now id b/f to pull the thread and my bet is up. |

just start a new one, with an equally inflammatory name

While we are all here together Israel has gone in on the ground the sneaky buggers.

The Jewish apologists hate to see the truth being told anywhere...

We may all be here irish but we certainly are not together.

Hamas obviously wanted a war otherwise they would have accepted the ceasefire.
|
|
By:
Better together no ?
|
|
By:
Akabula may have spoke some sense at last
Hamas may well have been trying to lure them in for close quarter fighting. Its about to get very ugly . |
|
By:
Hamas have no chance if this escalates to an all out war.
|
|
By:
.............. and more importantly neither have the civilians who Hamas are happy to hide behind.
|
|
By:
The cease fire lasted 5 hours
Israel are now going to invade Gaza, operation 'Protective Edge' Still maybe it will solve the problem, If they manage to kill many more Palestinian Arabs There won't be any left to fight, problem solved |
|
By:
cease fire didn't last 5 hours, Palestinians launched rockets 2 hours in
|
|
By:
who is telling the western media about all these hundreds of Hamas rockets that have bombarded Israeli occupied Palestine? The many many rockets that have so far killed one person? The Israeli government are the one feeding this info and we all know that they would never tell lies...
And Akaunionjack for Hamas to accept a ceasefire proposal brokered by Israel´s friend Egypt would be to accept the terms, which presumably meant Hamas accepting the ceding of more palestinian land to the jews. |
|
By:
@TTOs First of all there were no conditions at that stage and secondly there are numerous news crews in that area and they can actually see the rockets coming from the Hamas positions. In fact we have seen quite a few on tv when they've shown the Israeli s intercepting them.
|
|
By:
ok then even if there are rockets being fired, imagine the 4th largest military on the planet decided to invade the place where you live, they bulldoze your family home and forcibly resettle you and your family in a ghetto many miles away where there is limited accommodation, food, water, electricity and jobs. Would you not feel entitled, justified, in fighting back? especially when all your neighbours and the wider ´free democratic´ world stay quiet or side with the invader?
|
|
By:
TTOs I assume you have read all my posts. All I've done throughout is disagreed with anyone supporting Hamas.
Hamas are a foul group who are happy to hide behind women and children and then hold them up to the world when they get killed. This latest 'war' started with the death of 3 Israel teenagers. I know the Israeli reaction was not proportionate and ott but lets not forget how it started. There will never be a winner here but I don't blame Israel for defending what they have. |
|
By:
This latest incident started with Israel attacking Hamas..in retaliation for the death of those three Israeli teenagers
As for hiding behind women ad children, well Israel have a massive military advantage, they have access to all US surveillance. I don't imagine Hamas can stay out in the open, it would be suicide. So yes they do conceal themselves sometimes in built up areas. Does not stop Israel still firing on them does it, Hamas don't kill their own women and children...it is Israel that does that. |
|
By:
The point I was trying to make ebul was that some posters ignore the barbaric acts of Hamas.
As regards the women and children Hamas put them in the firing line. |
|
By:
akabula, it is chicken and egg, what came first? Did Hamas start by attacking Israel or did Israel begin the conflict by stealing Palestinian land?
If Israel at least respected internationally agreed borders (which still favour them over the initial treaty) then there would be no Hamas...but they don´t. Gaza is a ghetto, cut off from the rest of Palestine and the world, its sea ports, airspace and borders controlled by Israel. Any supplies of food, water, raw materials for industry or rebuilding, medical supplies all tightly limited by Israel. Is it any wonder they feel the way they do? The West Bank too is controlled and occupied by the IDF (a misnomer of ever there was one!)with freedom of movement strictly controlled. There is no two states: only Israel (the 4th most powerful military on the planet) and the open prison that is the enclaves of what is left of Palestine. |

Did Hamas arrange a football match on the beach? This conflict started 70 years ago. Hamas came into existence in 1989. You do the the maths.

By:
Nobody wants the conflict but all the pro Palestinian posters ignore the atrocities that they have committed.
We had a ceasefire that Hamas decided to break by firing 50 rockets. Why does nobody condemn this. Sure Israel have committed some barbaric acts but so have Hamas. BTW TTOs I did say the current conflict was kicked off by the savage killing if three Israeli teenagers which some posters seem to ignore so I don't really understand your reply. |
|
By:
Aka have they found anyone for the killing of these teenagers? I know Israel blame Hamas but with the protections, CCTV etc, they have in place surely there is some evidence about who did it?

Any news from Syria?

Don't choke on the sand brigust.
You accept without question everything anti Israel yet seek to cast doubt on this. Says it all really. |
