For that, you need to go back to the Romans who overthrew Judah and The Kingdom Of Israil following a 60 year war with the Jewish residents, kicked out all the Jews and renamed the land Palestine. The Arab V Jew issue didn't really start until the colonization by the Otterman Empire in or around 1516 which A brought in Arab settlers and B allowed Jews to re enter the lands.

The term anti-semitic is used in the modern context to refer to hatred, prejudice etc towards Jews, but of course Jewish identity is itself complex, involving Ashkenazi heritage, matrilineal descent, the religion, Hebrew as a language, even just social identity. The term is also abused, unfortunately, because anti-semitism (as understood today) is a widespread and serious problem, that unfortunately many cynical people have exploited for propagandistic purposes.

The situation in Gaza is not only damaging Israel but is destroying European civilisation. I've always believed in the existence of Israel. The question now is SHOULD it exist. The answer to anyone honest enough is, not in its present form. Netanyahu and his cabinet has besmirched the memory of the Holocaust and brought all of Western Civilisation into disrepute. It is either the end of Israel OR the end of European civilisation.

That's why he is so dangerous and they are so carefree about the appalling losses, that part of the exit strategy was already planned from the start. It was actually part of their war rhetoric at the beginning: to lay the first excesses on Netanyahu and say 'don't worry, he will be gone soon and their will be new leadership.'

In my view, Netanyahu and the Likud party saw the Hamas attack as an opportunity to rapidly expand and eliminate Palestinian obstacles. The slow painstaking process of grabbing land on the West bank could be accelerated, thanks to the Hamas. The number of victims is irrelevant, especially when it affects those to be eliminated. Knowing that international opposition would only be verbal, they rushed in very much like the Russians do with neighbouring countries.

Come on... we all know this started on 7th October, everything was fine with the ceasefire in place before then. Forget about the seige on Gaza, the killings in the west bank, the thousands locked up in prisons without trial, the taking of homes, the decades of occupation, daily degradation and humiliation. This started on October the 7th

And the terror attacks by Israel since 2007? Did Hamas, or Gaza, have the right to respond to those atrocities? It did not begin on October 7.

In case this needs saying to anyone who’s taken everything into consideration, but the 30,000 figure is a GROSS underestimate, like to several factors. There are No Hospitals Left in working order!

It isn't a case for me that one side or the other of the death toll matters more for me. What matters is that the actions of Hamas were disgusting, and, equally that this attack on the Palestinian people was totally disproportionate. That the Hamas attacks were used merely as a pretense for Israel to achieve something by force that it could not through apartheid. What matters is that Israel has apparently finally crossed a line for many that, for me, it had crossed decades ago. What matters is that finally, people are beginning to rightfully criticize the actions of Israel against the Palestinian people. That Israel's response was not militarily guided, it was ideologically guided. What it has done has totally undermined its ability to be, in my opinion, misguidedly, trusted by some to be an arbiter of peace in the Middle East. Truthfully, people who believed peace could be had in the Middle East while Israel kept the Palestinian people oppressed by apartheid were wrong. Any group, oppressed for long enough, put through enough hardship, will eventually take action to rectify it. With the Palestinians under apartheid, Israel ensured that any illusion of peace was just that, an illusion.

Anyone who talks about this issue needs to start being more honest. That includes James. This isn't just Nuttyahoo.

Ilan Pappe have said this, so did others like Miko Peled, Norman Finkelstein, Avi Shlaim, etc So even if Bibi gets removed, what's the guarantee that whoever replaces him will be better and not a Ben-Gvir or Smotrich? The answer is not to expect them to change. It's for the global community to force them to change. Through divestment, boycott, disinclusion from international events, sanctions, both political, social, and economical. Make it such that they will have no other choice but to reflect. Because as it stands, the major powers of the world are still coddling and spoiling them rotten. Time to take the kid gloves off.

Israel has defied UN resolutions on the rights of Palestinians since 1948 supported by the western world. The first 10 years more or less understandable because of the Shoah. After that no more. The trauma's of the 2nd world war affect the attitude of the Israeli's. The trauma's of the Naqbah and the continuing harrasment, belittling and theft and destruction of property of the Palestinians affect the attitude of the Palestinians. The Israeli's have lost the moral highground long ago by rejecting the 2 states solution, building of the wall and theft of Palestinian land embracing Eretz Israel.

Another Word Salad from the master wordsmith O'Brien. Listening to him tie himself into a verbal Gordian Knot is worth the price of a ticket. It appears that Israel is not really concerned with the opinion of the world stage. They are a 'protected' entity at this point in time. This leads to the attitude of being above of it all. Their aims and goals are all that counts in their version of the world. The question that James should explore is how does Britain and the US handle the loss of any sense of national moral integrity? Both countries are the largest providers of the material, monetary and political cover required to pursuer whatever one calls this action. We are as, if not more, complicit in this human disaster. We all have some serious blood on our national hands. The Arab/Persian countries that have turned a blind eye and deaf ear to this catastrophe are as guilty.
