In Order To Demonstrate Our Defiance Against Islamic Terror.....

[ToraToraTora]

Should the civilised nations of the world follow the US and move our embassies to Jerusalem?

[Old_Geezer]

Perhaps because it has b all to do with Islamic terror and would exasperate the situation in the occupied territories. Only a madman, or other wanting violence and conflict, would do so.

[Spungle]

If the Palestinians want to line up as human gunfodder for the Israeli's, that's their choice!

[youngmafbog]

I'd remove all our embassies from teh Middle East and let them just get on with murdering each other. It's what they have been doing for centuries and its not about to change now so stay out of it.

[naomi24]

Perhaps they will. Who knows? Trump's made a very major statement in doing this.

[emmie]

i agree that i would pull out all our people from the Middle East, they are not needed there as far as i can see

[bainbrig]

And what should we do to demonstrate our solidarity with the Palestinian protestors in Gaza, 50 of them killed by the soldiers of a nation who should know better?

[douglas9401]

Ask them to take a step back, a good long look and calm down?

[bainbrig]

Good advice for the Israeli soldiers.

[10ClarionSt]

If Israel thought they could get away it, they would have totally invaded Gaza years ago and just deported every man, woman and child and created their own holocaust. Without any misgivings.

brainbrig: "50 of them killed by the soldiers of a nation who should know better? " - orchestrated by Agent Cob's buddies, Hamas, what should the authorities do? let the run riot?

[naomi24]

Is there a need to ‘demonstrate our defiance’? Defiance of what? Israel exists and the west supports it. Neither side is prepared to compromise and so unless the unthinkable happens Israel isn’t going anywhere and this will never end. That’s why support for the Palestinians is futile.

[bainbrig]

Why the infantile need to make fun of my name? Although I suppose it’s easy than putting forward a reasoned argument...

[naomi24]

bainbrig, where's your reasoned argument?

[ToraToraTora]

It was a typo bainbrig, apologies, Perhaps you can answer my question to you at 09:35.

[bainbrig]

Run riot? Thus justifying the violent reaction of ‘the authorities’?

You mean like the Jewish inhabitants of the Warsaw ghetto who ’ran riot’?

Like the black demonstrators at Sharpeville who ‘ran riot’?

The working-class demonstrators at Peterloo who ‘ran riot’?

One man’s rioters are another man’s comrades.

We know where you stand, Tora.

[naomi24]

bainbrig, you haven't answered TTT's question. What should the authorities have done?

[bainbrig]

Shot them, of course, just like in Warsaw, Sharpeville, as they would have done in Peterloo but swords were good enough then.

Shoot them. That’ll teach them. (Teach them what?)

[naomi24]

^That'll be your reasoned argument you were talking about then. :o/

[bainbrig]

Well, since none of you want to make a reasoned comment on my analysis...
