Lies, damn lies, and more lies. Oh how you feed into the gullible West who openly support terror instead of democracy. When it all comes to you, the terror you openly wish on Israel, only then will you learn the hard way how mistaken you were. Ever heard of Douglas Murray? Just find any one of his recent YouTubes and give it a listen. You might learn something.
Thank you Jonathan. How can your voice be broadcast to the masses? My rage and frustration at the US and its allies, with which I am forcibly aligned, is at screaming point. I fully expected my country and the US to have vocally condemned this mass slaughter and put an into it months ago. Of course we all did! But no, they are feeding it. I cannot comprehend this evil and any belief I had in their claim to uphold human rights is shattered.
What happened to you as a child that you hate Jews so much? The notion that the BBC is Israel-friendly in its reporting is deranged. Hezbollah attacked Israel on October 8. Was that to protect Lebanon? Do you think the people in Lebanon and Syria who are celebrating the death of Nasrallah may know something more than you? One can only hope that when Israel is finished with the front line terrorists, it will turn its attention to propagandists like yourself. You may not want to answer your beeper.📟
This is one of the best pieces I've read on the middle east conflict and Israeli propaganda war. Thank you.
The BBCs response is laughable.
It has always bugged me how Israel has a "right to defend" yet Hamas and Hezbollah are referred to as "militant" regimes. Excuse me?!?. The west is responsible for what's happening in the middle east. Enabling a war hungry narcissist to murder innocent people in Gaza who have already been packed into the thinnest of areas like sardines - under the guise of security.
It's not that I support killing anyone-I don't; however, there is collateral damage in wars. WAR IS HELL but when you have no choice other than death, you have no choice. When we carpet bombed Dresden, Germany to dust in WWII & we killed tens of thousands of German citizens; but destroying Hitler's war machine was a MUST. When we dropped the atomic bombs on Japan and we killed over 100,000 Japanese citizens BUT, doing so saved an estimated 50,000+ American military members & it was an absolute MUST to destroy Japan's war machine & Hideki Tojo along with Emperor Hirohito.
Israel did NOT start this conflict. Israel has never attacked another nation first. Unless Israel submits to Jewish genocide, they have no choice but to destroy Hamas. Also, Hamas uses human shields and threatens to kill anyone attempting to leave to any safe zones Israel has attempted to create. No neighboring nation is willing to accept Gaza refugees because they fear Hamas infiltration. Hamas occupies hospitals, schools, mosques and other centers thus holding their own people as human shield hostages as well as kidnapping Americans and Jewish citizens when they can & as they did on Oct. 7th. WAR IS HELL on earth. WAR is ugly, terrible and always a last choice. Hamas MUST be destroyed. It's sad , it's terrible and everything negative BUT, this is 100% on Hamas. Israel has not choice other than death; they MUST destroy Hamas. https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-hamas-terrorists-admit-they-hide-in-hospitals-use-ambulances-for-transport
Huh? The genocide killing of innocent people is on Hamas? He'll no. This is 💯 on Israel. On the narcissist Netanyahu. On the west for standing idly as innocent people are annihilated.
If you go back through history, almost every nation on earth can claim a historical grievance against others. Every nation on earth has been formed via what was once the common mentality of humanity since the dawn of civilization. The strong conquered, enslaved and took from those who were unable to defend what they had for themselves. All empires were formed via that pattern, as was all of Europe, China, Russia, the Byzantine, Ottoman, British, Roman, Greek and other empires. The various tribes of Africa did likewise. The various tribes of Native Americans did likewise. There is no culture existing on earth today with a “pure” history. NONE.
Yasser Arafat flatly rejected a two-state solution proposed by Bill Clinton to which Israel agreed. Iran, Hamas, Hezbollah, ISIS, and others likewise reject two state solutions and demand the total elimination of Israel from the face of the earth. Hamas must be eliminated from the face of the earth so they cannot continue this terror. Then, and only then, can there be a cease fire or peace. You can't make peace with someone attempting to kill you. file:///C:/Users/USER1~1/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_filelist.xml
As Obama said, "Elections have consequences." The Palestinians ELECTED Hamas terrorists as their governing officials. Article 13 of Hamas constitution reads: "There is no negotiated settlement possible. Jihad is the only answer." It's unfortunate; it's sad; it's terrible & it was a catastrophic choice however; they made that choice. You can't make peace with someone who is trying to kill you. It's also significant to note that adjacent fellow Muslim nations like Egypt & Jordan will NOT allow safe passage for Palestinians into their respective nations because they fear Hamas infiltration. If Israel is going to survive, they have no choice but to do whatever it takes, without limitation, to erase Hamas from the face of the earth. It's Hamas that began this and is imposing this upon their general population. Instead of using money for infrastructure, utilities and improving the general standard of living and welfare, Hamas uses their money for weapons and war. file:///C:/Users/USER1~1/AppData/Local/Temp/msohtmlclip1/01/clip_filelist.xml
The suffering today throughout the Middle East is on Iran & their terrorist proxies who terrorize both their fellow Muslims, Israel and spread terror throughout the civilized world.
FACT: If terrorists laid down their weapons, there would be peace. If Israel laid down their weapons, they would be wiped from the face of the earth! How do you make peace with someone who won't stop trying to kill you? Read: Article 13 of Hamas constitution reads: "There is no negotiated settlement possible. Jihad is the only answer." It's unfortunate; it's sad; it's terrible & it was a catastrophic choice however; terrorists made that choice. You can't make peace with someone who is trying to kill you.
FACT: The murder of innocent men, women and children by a country supported by weapons amply provided by the west I'd say is terrorism. But that's alright as long as it's not Britons or Americans dead right? The lives of Palestinians and Lebanese means so little it seems.

Israel thinks it can kill and bomb its way to peace. And it thinks it's the new Athens, a creative country. It is brilliant at destruction, and at creating more powerful means of destruction.
The idea that the BBC is carrying water for israel is insane and anyone that believes that is missing brain cells
Euh, who is this antisemitic moron?
Iran slaughters Israel citizens. Muslims are fucking terrorists

You are the main criminal . Clearly you’ve had very disturbing events in your lifetime to have such an upside down view.
I didn't know that the radical Islamists determined to eradicate Israel are so wonderful and misunderstood. Your insights are so revealing.
What happened to you as a child that you hate Jews so much? The notion that the BBC is Israel-friendly in its reporting is deranged. Hezbollah attacked Israel on October 8.

When will the west wake up?

A correction : those Israeli bombs are mostly American bombs.
“Non-lethal rockets”
You’re a fucking moron. Maybe you’d be happy to shove one up your ass and have Hezbollah pull the trigger.
I agree, now give Paris back to the Nazis

BBC admits its own bias
Israel thinks it can kill and bomb its way to peace. And it thinks it's the new Athens, a creative country. It is brilliant at destruction, and at creating more powerful means of destruction.
It's Jewish, write it (or say it) after me, it's Jewish. The excoriating, brutally clipped and narrated Caitlin Johnson refuses to do same.
I rely on you both and admire you both for your superb writing but I really cannot see honesty in avoiding this issue anymore.
I'm blocked, or something, from following JC on X after being a fan for many, many years but still understand you have to pay the bills.
And so it continues.
