Why no mention of the Hamas charter, paragraph 20?

“Hamas rejects any alternative to the full and complete liberation of Palestine, from the river to the sea.”

Maybe that is the cause of peoples concern?

I wrote a comment again branding the CIA- NATO countries as racist warmongers . But it didn't go through. I don't know enough about sending such posts. Nearing 81 is perhaps too late.

An excellent dissection of the methodology used to turn the night to day and vice versa when discussing the desire of Palestinians to live on their own farms, harvest their olive groves, send their children to school and university in safety, travel to hospitals for treatment when necessary, fish their waters, laugh and love and dance. From the river to the sea. Palestine will be free.

Helen,

I think the Anglo Saxons killer Combo of the CIA - NATO - the Five Eyes is racist. The Slavs ( Russians) , Asians( Hindus) , Chinks, Arabs, Iranians, South Americans et al are considered fit for mayhem.

To be dispossessed of one's childhood home is almost a trauma. If it's done by deceit the injustice is unbearable. I am sufferring this. I support the Palestinians.

Israel, where I spent quite a few pleasant months in 1984, simply disgusts me. As do those armchair zionists who haven't got the courage to leave their comfy homes in Maynsrd Keynes and go live there.

Thank the Creator that there are people in Britain marching in support of the Palestinians. If there are more such marches , the Israeli genocide will be exposed .

Excellent reporting once again Jonathan, keep exposing the lies and propaganda coming out of the IDF and Netanyahu.

Max Blumenthal (The Grayzone) has extensively investigated the Oct 7th attacks and has exposed so many staged events, lies and complete rubbish the IDF continue to propagate. Funny how western media don't report the real events of this day including what appears to be Israels invoking of the Hannibal Directive against it's own military and civilians.

see link on Spotify to Max's interview with Afshin Rattansi.

Thank you for articulating this so precisely! I am absolutely furious, frustrated and sometimes frightened by this fake propaganda machine of Israel! The sooner Netanyahu and his cronies are locked up for war crimes the sooner the world will have peace!

The regular Sunday arvio Pro-Palestinian rally & march in Sydney (NSW) got a mention on one of the local evening teevee news - at last ! But so too did a pro-Israeli rally. 'held nearby' .at the same time,

get mentioned...To mention the latter meant having to mention the former...

Footage of the pro-Palestine march was of marchers bunched at a spot, not of the long stretch of numerous participants - a perspective selected so as to not indicate its considerable support...

Worrisome: the timing of the pro-Israeli rally to coincide with the pro-Palestinian march is not merely a competition for media coverage, but has created the conditions for a likely provocation, a clash...

A clash likely to result on the banning of any further marches: the most likely intention ?

If Israel really has all this evidence, why does it keep presenting clumsy and easily detected fakes as evidence? Why can't it present the real thing?

It’s a sad fact of life that ALL are dehumanised by those in positions of authority... most of us just don’t realise it yet. And if we do realise we have been dehumanised it’s only because they already destroyed our lives, our families, our reputations and our futures.....

Those poor babies...

"The problem is our susceptibility to the endless lies and deceptions told by western establishments to promote their narrow interests over our shared humanity. " -- what a beautiful sentence.

Well that is good news if Hamas has dropped their demand for Israel and Jews to be eliminated.
