Just to aid in understanding:

Is that the droid writing the click-bait title that is regardless of the contents?

Or are you referring to the actual article/interview?

If the majority of Palestinians are still in favor of wiping Israel off the map, throwing the Jews into the sea, and raising tens of thousands of their children to become Hamas fighters, this also fuels the will and initiative of the ultra-conservative settlers to expand their land and to enforce their will. I'm not defending that. Extremism reinforces the extremism of the other side. How to find a way to peace?

Are the announced "safe" areas actually an Hamas-styled ploy to lure Hamas into a soon-to-be-made crater?...

Who knows for such a dirty war...


Also note that Hamas fighters, when "martyred", suddenly, magically become counted as "civilians" in their death...

Stay safe folks?

There's no "may be" about it and it's why most of the world reckons that the U.S. is also willingly partaking in Israel's Palestinian genocide.

The US may be flouting its own laws by sending unrestricted aid to Israel.

The recent high-profile killings of three Israeli hostages, two women in a Gaza church, and 11 unarmed Palestinian men in front of their family members have raised new global alarm at Israel’s targeting of civilians amid its war in Gaza. The deaths came as part of its ground assault, and as it continues a bombing campaign that even staunch Israel ally President Joe Biden has called “indiscriminate.” Yet, he continues to push for additional, essentially unconditional aid to Israel — despite the fact that some foreign affairs experts say existing US laws meant to safeguard human rights should have long restricted the flow of such assistance.

“We always treat Israel with kid gloves when it comes to potential human rights violations of any kind,” said Josh Paul, who has become a prominent critic of the Biden administration’s Israel policy since resigning from his post as the director of congressional and public affairs at the State Department bureau overseeing American arms sales over concerns about the Israeli response to the October 7 attack by Hamas, a Palestinian militant group designated as a terrorist organization by many countries. “When it comes to suspending or curtailing lethal military assistance, there’s no sign of anyone willing to take any actual steps.”.......
1 rule for Israel and another for everyone else just goes to show how lopsided and hypocritical things are.

As Israel keeps on with its slaughter of many thousands of Palestinians South Africa files international case accusing Israel of 'genocidal acts'.

Israel reportedly hits aid convoy, and thousands cram into Gaza's most densely populated areas as strikes continue.

More countries should follow South Africa lead or it won't be long before all Arab countries pounce on Israel in retribution.

... That smacks of grand hypocrisy of a deadly game of deadly politics on the part of South Africa.

What are those Russian connections?...

Was not one of Putin's super-yachts trying to flee there at the start of the Putin "Special Military Operation"?...

Crooked little Benji doesn't want any Palestinians to miss out on their slaughter. :-(

Netanyahu says military seeks full control of Gaza-Egypt border.

With headlines like this, "Israel should make Gaza look like Auschwitz museum", and worse coming out of Israel it's just pushing Arab nations to a point where they'll all jump on Israel at once and anyone else who is supporting them if something isn't done very soon,

What will Israel and Gaza look like when the war is over?

This has to be stopped now before it all becomes a lose, lose situation all around.

Is this where Hamas has already taken the rhetoric into and beyond the extreme...

With a sad reflection for what rhetoric gets returned?


How do we persuade everyone there to come back down to more normal levels of civilisation? Down to compassionate holy ideals even?

A few thousand Hamas 'martyrs' have ceased to exist to spew out any further atrocities. There's a few thousand more there yet to continue their killing...

Crooked Benji gets tripped on his way to becoming dictator.

Israel's Supreme Court overturns a key component of Netanyahu's polarizing judicial overhaul.

Israel’s Supreme Court on Monday struck down a key component of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s contentious judicial overhaul, delivering a landmark decision that threatens to reopen the fissures in Israeli society that preceded the country’s ongoing war against Hamas.

The planned overhaul sparked months of mass protests, threatened to trigger a constitutional crisis between the judicial and legislative branches of government and rattled the cohesion of the powerful military...

...In Monday’s decision, the court narrowly voted to overturn a law passed in July that prevents judges from striking down government decisions they deem “unreasonable.” Opponents had argued that Netanyahu’s efforts to remove the standard of reasonability opens the door to corruption and improper appointments of unqualified cronies to important positions.....
But Benji already has unqualified cronies in important positions that are just as crooked as Benji himself.

Benji gets hits with another road block on his way to becoming dictator of the country.

Israel's Supreme Court delays activation of law that makes it harder to remove Netanyahu from office.

The land thieving and tunneling spreads overseas. :-O

Police clashed with dozens of Orthodox men in a New York synagogue as a riot broke out over a secret underground tunnel.

A riot broke out in a historic Brooklyn synagogue when a group of rebellious Orthodox Jewish men tried to stop police and construction crews from filling in a secret tunnel they illegally dug to reach a closed-down women’s bath.

The enraged men, thought to be mostly in their teens and early 20s, were filmed tearing down wood panels and wooden support beams on Monday, local time, at the Chabad-Lubavitch World Headquarters in Crown Heights.

Other footage from the temple on Eastern Parkway showed cops trying to hold back dozens of Hasidic Jewish men as they pushed their way into the six metre-wide enclosure underneath the women’s section, toppling over wooden pews in their anger.

Synagogue leader Rabbi Yosef Braun condemned those involved, saying they arrived “ready to destroy and deface the Holy Walls” — calling it “mind-boggling”.

Members of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement have reportedly been digging a tunnel under the Crown Heights synagogue for nearly a year.

It was apparently designed to reach an abandoned women’s mikvah — or ritual bath — around the corner and “expand” the synagogue, according to the Jewish outlet Forward, but it is unclear what motivated the members of the Chabad-Lubavitch community to start digging the passage.....


......Rabbi Yehuda Krinsky, the Chabad-Lubavitch chairman, also issued a statement thanking the NYPD for its assistance.

“The Chabad-Lubavitch community is pained by the vandalism of a group of young agitators who damaged the synagogue below Chabad Headquarters,” he said.

“These odious actions will be investigated and the sanctity of the synagogue will be restored.

“Our thanks to the NYPD for their professionalism and sensitivity,” he continued. “We are grateful for the outpouring of concern, and for our Chabad Lubavitch institutions around the world.”

Another statement from the headquarters added that “the group of young agitators” were “primarily in the US on student visas.

“These individuals have been squatting in the synagogue and attempted to take control by demolishing walls to connect the basement to the adjacent building, intending to ‘expand’ the sanctuary,” it said.

“Steps are being taken to revoke their student visas and repatriate them to their countries of origin.”
To spread more terror most likely.

That's a weird one...

Or copying Hamas in some ironic way??

Strange indeed...


And no one was killed.
