Aye 

And I think it's fair to point out those committing massacre and genocide are absolute cunts who need stopping or should stop as there is no justifiable reason for it 

Rather than taking sides or shrugging it off as collateral damage, or one of them things

Because it's not, really, as most of those examples show us

I certainly never thought the solution for an IRA bomb was to steam into Ireland and kill loads of them knowing it will at least take out a few IRA members along the way

Are you, like Casino, comparing the IRA attacks with what’s going on in Gaza?

Then's it's strange that you make the claim Hamas control Palestine

It was pretty much the solution in Iraq and Afghanistan. As you know Northern Ireland is British. They’re hardly going to start blowing up their own are they.

Of course it is 😂 Why else bring it up. 

Israel should just nuke the strip and be done with it. The Yanks once dropped an atomic bomb on Japan in a war. So it's okay to do it again if it's been done before. People die in wars, just what happens innit.

Such comparison has been made continuously in this thread.

As this war continues, I'm intrigued as to what will happen once its all over.

Presumably the Palestinian authority will get back to running the place, as Hamas will be largely destroyed, but how long that would last, who knows.

In the blink of an eye, one group/family will be at another's throats, with more bloodshed.

Strange? Hamas controls Gaza. They are Palestinian. I’ve been clear all the way through this thread that it’s a war between Israel and Hamas. It’s strange that you should pick up on a semantic point. We all know what the issue is. 
Israel is at war with Hamas, not Fatah.

Who’s making excuses? Explaining the realities of a shit situation based on experience of many conflicts over the years isn’t making excuses. 
Anyway, what does ‘large chunk of the Israeli population’ mean in real terms? 
As per your reaction the Israeli extremist nutter. 
As a percentage, numbers, links etc. that sort of thing. 

Explaining what realities? 

You keep making absurd statements like this is 'Israel vs Hamas' and asking everyone to agree. With no regard for any wider context or the situation that has been playing out in the rest of Palestine.

This isn't just one extremist nutter who the BBC plucked out of thin air. These settlements and land grabbing policies are coming from the top down. There are people just like her sitting at the top of Israeli government.

Islamist terror attacks have resulted in hundreds of thousand killed. Over 400,000 last I heard. Hamas are terrorists.

No, RW was, well he brought them up

I listed examples of genocide as a comparison 

In response to RW I was saying Israel's solution in the face of terrorism was nothing like ours

No he didn’t. He was listing countries who have been at war were kids have died. 
 

Our response in the face of terror? See Afghan and Iraq

Thanks for these figures. I had no idea. 

I guess the only response we've got left is to keep killing and starving innocent people. 

Such is war.

I did think you were going off on a tangent bringing NI up in after I'd listed acts of massacre and genocide 

Which is why I said they weren't the same 

I mustn't have explained it clearly though because for some reason you and Bobby thought I was comparing them

As it’s pedantic Tuesday, the Guardian also makes obvious school boy errors.

It’s an interesting read. This still sticks in my mind.

The exit of the Qureia cabinet will change the wider politics of the region. Fatah, the party of Yasser Arafat and President Mahmoud Abbas - supports a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, while the founding charter of Hamas commits it to the destruction of the Jewish state.

My comment on your post makes no sense then. (Unless it was edited) 

Makes me doubt myself. 
My question was, can you edit posts without it showing as an actual edit?
