Sounds like a combination from different accounts. Desperate Palestinians, then the IDF fired on the crowd, aid truck was overwhelmed and the workers were at risk and scared of the gunfire so drove away. Killing folk in the process. Harrowing scenes. 

Most of which stems from Israel's collective punishment and starvation of millions of people, who are resorting to grinding down animal feed to survive. You'd be acting the same way every time a lone aid van came in. 

Shame no near by countries have let the civilians through and out.

Not one since it all kicked off again. Why do you think that is?

Also, Why is it every time I see a group of Palestinians on the news its always just men?

Y'know ... groups of men trying to get aid, fighting over food and protesting.

Where are all the women?

They're only heard about when it comes to casualties. Why do you think that is?

Do you honestly think "the Islamists" are running London, and that we're on the brink of a civil war?  -  do I need to build a bunker yet, or can I wait until it's bit warmer?

There is a problem with terror attacks, of course there is, but I just don't buy into this narrative that we'll have a civil war on these shores imminently, and certainly not that that our capital city is full of "no go" areas and is being run the  Islamists, as some would try and have us believe.

Interesting post. First paragraph, just fashion a tinfoil hat like me ;) That should do it.

I homed in on the word 'imminently' in the second paragraph. Firstly, where did I say it was imminent? Secondly, you don't dismiss the possibility completely then?

People are just apathetic, outraged for a few weeks, then go back to not being that bothered and just a bit "meh" about these events when they happen.

As @gonzosays, fuck all will happen, even if the odd drama queen does think there is an impending civil war

Is this not exactly what I was implying with the jug of Madri comment?

Not sure at all about your second para. The rise of the right in Europe and beyond has been well documented. Equal and opposite reactions and all that. I wouldn't be too complacent but concede that most will be.

Unconfirmed reports of the IDF killing over a hundred trying to get aid from trucks. All reporting is a bit over the place because Israel won't allow journalists into Gaza so it could be bollocks.

Run over by the trucks of Gutteres so yes, it is bollocks. Par for the course.

No, you didn't say "imminently" in all fairness - but that's the important word for me. If it's not likely to happen for another 50 years or so, then I'm really not arsed, as I won't be here :)

We've been here before, with the IDF supposedly attacking folk leaving an area. It was Hamas' own device.

Impossible to get a full, honest picture. 

I agree, both sides are absolutely full of shit and can't be trusted with what they report

IDF do look after their own. 

The Shireen Abu Akleh shooting and subsequent investigation possibly suggests something untoward, but again we'll probably never know the full story.

Did 40 babies get beheaded or was that made up?

100% made up. 

But, even if one was, it's obviously too many

We've discussed this mate - a quick google will tell you the statements of neighbouring leaders. 

Also, Why is it every time I see a group of Palestinians on the news its always just men?

Y'know ... groups of men trying to get aid, fighting over food and protesting.

Where are all the women?
Would you have sent your wife and kids to a desperate aid stampede knowing that the IDF could set fire on the crowd at any moment? Maybe there were women and kids there anyway, I've not studied the pictures in as much detail as you. 

They're only heard about when it comes to casualties. Why do you think that is?

You tell me ? Just tell us what you think for a change. Is it all a consipiracy? Are they all safe at home cooking flatbreads and playing sonic the hedgehog?

I hope that wasn't addressed at me or you really have joined the ranks of the fooktards.

I (and Gonzo it seems) have seen a video of one. Not forty. One. I take it you agree that this is fucking horrendous?

Don't be a fucking dick now. If you can access the dark web, search for the video if you have the stomach.

WTF England in the 70's has to do with this I haven't a fucking clue.

You are correct though. Very nice life here apart from the searing heat at this time of year. Might have to invest in yet another holiday home somewhere like Albany. Living down there for 3 months of the year would be very nice.
