Yeah but the real death toll in Gaza is only 14. I saw it on twitter. [Post edited 18 May 2024 16:21]

Both as bad as each other, murdering women and children, civilians, and committing various war crimes. |  |

So in a nutshell, you are saying the Israeli state is a terrorist organisation.
Given its current leadership, I wouldn’t disagree. |  | | |

The problem is that one of those sides who are as "bad as one another" is a supposedly civilised democratic state and ally of the west, with firepower and resources which overwhelmingly greater than the other. |  | | |

Precisely.
Have a look on iPlayer for a documentary called Praying for Armageddon.
It tells you about the right wing Christian Evangelicals who are dedicated to the destruction of Palestine. Why? Because that will return to Israel its historic (ie biblical) borders. Once that is achieved, the way is clear for the second coming.
They are very rich, have a highly sophisticated lobbying maching in Washington, including a White House Bible Study Group. They are, apparently Christian Zionists.
They clearly aren't going away and will keep fuelling the conflict, despite their craxy, ill-informed fundamentalist views.
And people like that wonder why the Palestinians resist. |  |

Strictly speaking, Israel has a barbaric government. Not for the first time in its history.
The nation itself includes people of all sorts, including those protesting against current policy. |  |

Yep, and thats how I disagree with the OP.
The Israeli government are barbaric, but the 'state' in and of itself, is not.
In exactly the same way that not all Palestinians are murdering terrorists. | |

Nethanyahoo has been moulding the Israeli State/military in his image for years now. |  |

I don't think that's entirely true.
He has - when in power, which has been very patchy - encouraged extremist and hard-line elements who are prepared to lend him their support, most notably the settlers. But that's only some sectors of society as a whole. Indeed, they are under-represented in the military as they often refuse to accept conscription.
The scale and energy of the protests he faced while attempting to override the judiciary is evidence of his unpopularity with large parts of the population. There are more protests now over his conduct of the war. He only marginally managed to regain a parliamentary majority in 2022, after several inconclusive elections. | |

Indeed. If Banksy wanted a genuine example of a "barbaric state" he could perhaps look at Iran and compare how they treat their protesters compared to how Israel treats theirs. |  |

A bit confused how this works Phil.
Why are some of the replies still visible?
I'm not sure anything I posted was inflamatory, but has gone.

Will you confirm that you will remove all posts in future with the words 'sub-human scum' (or similar phrases) commenting on the troubles in Gaza? | |

I don't think it's a very wise phrase to use in any context because of its Nazi echoes.

It's use in English wasn't the problem, as you well know. It's been used before by Banksy without any issue.

The phrase was first used in the 1700's. The German translation has obvious Nazi connotations. | |

No it wasn't. It was used by me to describe Hamas terrorists who raped, mutilated and beheaded a 22 year old young woman. Palestinian people are not sub human scum. The people who commited the atrocity against Shani Louk are. The phrase was used last week by Banksy with no issues.
Edit. What would you cll people who kidnap a 22 year old woman from a rave in the desert, gang raper her, break every bone in her body, throw her onto the back of a jeep, parade her broken and lifeless corpse through the streets of Gaza for people to spit at and throw objects at, behead her and transport her to the another part of the country and keep her body for over seven months?

Well you claim to have me on ignore but can obviously see Banksy's posts so I would imagine the only time you have seen that phrase used on here was on this thread.

It's clearly unhelpful for people to use it, particularly if it's in order to cause a row. | | | |
