The answer to your narrative is exactly “NOW” Object, demonstrate, boycott, divest, sanction, embargo, and if necessary, shut down the Strait of Hormuz, sooner the better!!

And all that 'sensitivity', as supposedly perceived by western powers, is based on the decades of zionist propaganda to make the world see the arrogant terrorists as 'VICTIM'. Though even this 'sensitivity' is propaganda generated by Izrahell. Why is there ANY consideration of israeli 'feelings'? Only due to the constant work of ADL & Co to make us 'slaves' feel guilt over the Holocaust! Though still ridiculous and fake, any remorse politics could apply in Germany- a nation abusing the real guilt of its past- but why should collective 'guilt' charges stick in US, Canada, England, etc? In anti-Nazi countries! It's reverse racism constantly practiced by izraeli propaganda goons to keep the GOYIM SLAVES psychologically pliable for zionist genocidal programs.- We, who still have human hearts, must cancel the license of 'Izrael'. The world, and certainly the Palestinians, will NEVER HAVE PEACE with equality and neighbourly considerations between states in West Asia, since the Zionist arrogance and violent righteousness is too deeply installed in the psyche of nearly the entire izraeli population.

Hello, I am slowly getting in touch with a period of time, post WW2, known as "Stalinist communism"

I am not pretending that the Nazi's atrocities are to be under-considered; on the opposite, I feel that every single drop of blood must be accounted for, accordingly

But

Seems to me that speaking of an under-estimation of "Stalinist communism" in terms of damage is accurate; nobody cares about it, and common world views don't seem to include a proper place PROPERLY RELATING to "Stalinist communism".

It appears that this was a completely out of hand mad butchery. I invite the reader to check a bit more about this discrepancy, as there seems to be something

This is "odd" - and very wrong. Something is wrong about that. The Nazi atrocities took the "horror" room in our minds - but we'll have to deal with "Stalinist communism" - and it's not pretty.

Nazi Israel is a sick, monstrous, festered pustule the human contents of which are a decayed and stinking human mass. It must be destroyed.

Good luck with that. Asking any of these questions will bring charges of “antisemitism” & “Nazi” raining down upon you — but you are absolutely right.

When Parliament & MSM serves a healthy democracy, we may live in a healthy democracy. Both BBC & Channel 4 fail to comply with their Public Service Broadcasting Charters.

What has Hamas done to protect their people? They knew Israel’s response would be harsh after they brutally murdered, raped, burned and took Israeli hostages. You are blaming the wrong people. The Palestinian Arabs could have had sovereignty 75 years ago but their leaders were more interested in erasing Israel than creating a state of their own.

“Dear naive anti-Israel activist

1. 'Palestine' is a name given to the Jewish holy land by Christian European empires.... It has nowt to do with indigenous people, Islam or Judaism.

2. The map of 'Palestine' you hold up as sacred was drawn just over 100 years ago by a colonial pen. It is entirely a modern colonial construct.

Basically the enemies of Israel just piggybacked on your ignorance and antisemitism... to get you to support a fictional narrative - and today you are just a person in the west, trying to dicate and impose a completely western and alien concept on people living 1000s of miles away...

No different from how supremacists in European empires were acting 100s of years ago.

You are EXACTLY what you say you despise.”

It's sad, because it's a common izraeli line, arrogantly spouted, but full of shit. Go on murdering in false believes. It just shows the basic stupidity of the speaker, having fallen for its own propaganda.

Racist genocidal Zionist fool

Chill, Aaron. First you call the fascist Ziobots names, then, all ablaze, you go misreading other comments and call me a fool (before deleting your comment). Yes, I obviously am aware that hasbara is an Israeli Hebrew term and was commenting on the hasbara, not your comment. Either way, the above cut-and-paste hasbara worked on you by helping you lose your cool and degrade this conversational space, including getting you to instigate infighting amongst allies.

Take a breath, learn their game and marry contemplation and consideration to your beautiful passion.

Your angry little insult still showed up in my inbox.

Chill, you say? I think that I am in fact chilled. You however don't seem so, hence my suggestion. It remains, along with one towards civility.

Dear naive zioNazi: Israel is a fake country. Good luck with the next 76 years.. you’ll probably end up like the Taliban except their country is real..

Historically , you are just wrong. The historic references to Palestine go much further back than any to Israel. Ancient Greeks referred to Palestine. The total time in which Palestine was ruled by Jewish Kings is about 300 years. For most of its history this area was multicultural as attested by Israeli Archeologists Silberman and Finkelstein in The Bible Unearthed.

This is Israeli lies and propaganda. Israel created Hamas, and knew its ‘attack’ was imminent. They then concocted lie after lie about rapes and babies, then proceeded to murder their own people according to the Hannibal Directive. You come across as either an Israeli Troll or a ba ba sheep who believes the crap your media shoved down your gib.

You ommit to say that Hamas started this latest war and have dozens of hostages held in the miles of tunnels they built.

I should follow my own advice and not resort to cut and paste insults.

Your original comment warrants strong suspicion that you are not a genuine participant in a public conversation. It does so by traipsing out standardized, tired, obviously incorrect/incomplete/irrelevant tropes in a weak attempt to decontextualise, undermine and derail the narrative.

What you omit is obvious to all here.
