whilst playing football in northern Israel, with dozens more wounded?
Would have been sure [redacted] [redacted] and [redacted], who normally post with such outrage when innocents are brutally murdered by rockets, would have been all over this as soon as the news hit. Oddly enough they had nothing to say about the Russian bombing of the children's hospital in Ukraine as well.
Surely there will be protest marches across British cities tomorrow in support of those murdered and condemning the terrorists? |  |

Haven’t seen anything on the 30 school kids killed and hundreds wounded by an Israeli missile strike today either.
Perhaps I’ve missed it, but it didn’t get top billing on BBC News either. |  | | |

Whataboutery. There are plenty of threads on this board covering the atrocities being carried by the Israeli state in Gaza. Have you ever posted on them? I have, as have many other posters.
Now back to this thread. Anything to add? | |

Ok, have you posted in one of them about the 30 children killed in a missile strike in Gaza today?
I personally don’t feel the need to offer my own ongoing commentary about how murdering children playing football or going to school is bad as I would expect that to be a fairly universal position but then I also don’t feel the need to start threads deliberately baiting people about their apparent one-sidedness whilst doing exactly the same. | | | |

Absolutely horrific and inexcusable.
I’m sure, if you actually puts names to ‘redacted’, ‘redacted’ and ‘redacted’ you’ll get the more specific responses you’re cryptically seeking this evening….

Just to clarify, it wasn't in northern Israel, it was in the Golan Heights, which is occupied territory. |  | | |

Is our government actively supporting those groups in their actions? |  | | |

In southern Syria I believe, occupied by Israel. | |

At the risk of sounding like a dreadful old centrist, we should probably stop making excuses for violent extremists killing kids to shore up their positions, stop arming them, be pushing for a meaningful ceasefire and prosecutions for war criminals and stop treating this rubbish like some kind of local derby that the old bill have been called to by using numbers as some kind kind of arbitrary 'your lot are worse' thing.

12 children murdered by militants. 12000 murdered by The IDF. That in no way makes it right but how about some context. |  | | |

Absolutely.
Don’t really understand the motivation behind creating another thread on this contentious issue on the forum, other than to garner a few upvotes from the usual crew who agree, a few downvotes from those who don’t, and yet another squabble.
As bluebadger implies, it’s becoming an unsavoury game of, quite frankly, twisted dead body bingo now.
Seem to recall Phil questioning the need for doing this some weeks back.
Anyhow, hey-ho, let’s see how this one plays out before the inevitable board rubber is invoked once again, it disappears into the great internet graveyard, and we can argue about who said what, who supported terrorists and who the war criminals are….. [Post edited 28 Jul 2024 0:52]

I upvoted you by mistake.
The BBC is one of the more reliable news sources though it has had the odd wobble during the last fifteen years of attempts by Conservatives to undermine and discredit it at the behest of the Murdoch empire. |  |

If there was a pre-emptive strike against Hezbollah, there would be a 15 page thread. The Socialist Worker would be manufacturing their latest placards at a pace for a demonstration next weekend. |  | | |

Calling out the rank hypocrisy of those who have been using the situation in Gaza for exactly what you are accusing me of is not point scoring.
Russia bombs a children's hospital in Ukraine.Not a peep out of the those who were quick enough to link Hamas propaganda on here and falsely accuse Israel of bombing the al-Ahli Hospital, when in fact it was a rocket sent to kill Israelis by Palestinian Islamic Jihad that fell short.
The people who profess to care about Arab children start thread after thread of moral outrage when they are killed by the Israelis. But when Arab Druze children, who live in peaceful coexistence with the Jewish people (apartheid not) are killed by Islamist terrorists it’s all Whatabouttery and context.
I guess some Arab children’s lives are more important than others.
Of course these are the same people who condemn Israel for the lack of aid coming in through their border with Gaza but say nothing about the fact that not a single bag of grain has entered Gaza from it border with Egypt.
The same people who weren’t outraged enough to post when 160,000 Palestinian refugees were displaced when Assad bombed the fcuk out of the Yarmouk refugee camp.
The same people who turned their gaze away when the Egyptian Prime Minister said “We are prepared to sacrifice millions of [Palestinian] lives to ensure that no one encroaches upon our territory,”
As always it’s no Jews no news.
I'm not looking to score points, although as an avid downvoter of my posts through the years your post certainly is. I'm exposing the rank hypocrisy of so board members who pick and chose which atrocities is worthy of the virtue signaling.
Meanwhile the world’s only Jewish state is attacked every day since October 8th from the north by Hezbollah, attacked from the south by Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad, attacked by the Houthis in Yemen and attacked by the Iranians, yet its Israeli who are the aggressors. | |

I’m not sure how you can claim you’re not looking to score points when you’ve started a thread calling out people you have a problem with, although without naming them strangely.
I downvote posts I disagree with. Can’t say I consciously downvote your posts so that’s an odd thing for you to come out with, I don’t think I even downvoted anything in this post. In fact I don’t even spend that much time on this site these days. If you think I’m downvoting a lot of your posts it must be that you talk a lot of b*llocks. I have no more of an issue with you than anybody else on this site though, I just think this post is a strange way of behaving. | |

This distasteful points scoring by GB and redacted etc is disgusting. Should be utterly ashamed of themselves all of them. |  |
