Have the Libdems got an ounce of sense between them?

This was discussed at some length on LBC radio last night, and it was interesting to see that anyone who suggested that David Ward was only conveying his personal thoughts, not in the House but on a social media site, was quickly cut off especially if they mentioned 'Jews' instead of the more pc description of Israelis.

Also he did not actually say he would, this is what he put.

"The big question is - if I lived in #Gaza would I fire a rocket? - probably yes".

Foolish maybe, but what has happened to 'free speech'?

"The big question is - if I lived in #Gaza would I fire a rocket? - probably yes".
Weren't Hamas the ones who strapped a bomb vest to a girl with downs syndrome ?

Why are all the lefties against Israel?

[Ric.ror]

I'm a leftie and I'm not - but I agree the majority are

[Gromit]

One MP out of 56 (and he has previous form) is not LibDem Party backing.

If you need to twist the facts to make your point then your points are worthless. Such an obvious distortion of the facts is the sign of desperation.

[Gromit]

It is the far right who are most fervently anti Jewish and anti Israel. Jewish cemeteries are often vandalised with far right symbols, and on the Continent, synagogues and jewish shops are attacked.

I am far from a leftie, or even a supporter of the Islamic faith, but in this instance I am against Israel on this one.

If they need revenge for the missile attacks on them, and peaceful talks don't work then perhaps a 'tit for tat' attitude may be in order i.e. for every one missile sent over against them, then perhaps they should consider sending one back in return?

Not in anyway supporting the far right, but what proof is there that it is the far right, it could be others but they don't want to be seen as the real culprits?

Must be a tough one for the Lefties on this one, do they side with the Jews or condemn them for their treatment against Muslims.

AOG,

Some nice men waving at their Uncle in a nearby tree...

Or some lefties dressed up to look like far righties even?

But then they are Welsh aren't they, and they don't even like the English.

[Zeuhl]

/Why are all the lefties against Israel?/

I'm not sure they are, but if it is the case it's not difficult to understand

lefties are often opposed to Fascists and fascist behaviour such as attacking with tanks people forced into a 'ghetto'

Seems a might sensible to me, at least they managed to get in power for 5 years, which they had no hope of doing so on their own.

[Slapshot]

can't agree AOG, they sacrificed their soles for that wee sniff of power, if a wee sniff like that is their priority then they have zero integrity in my book. Lib dems are a non entity and their reward for 5 years of being the pointless partner to the tories will be election anihilation next year

[Slapshot]

That should be souls... my bad

[youngmafbog]

Well it has always been the right-on thing to support Hamas & co. Didn't Cherie have some for on this?
