Bit poor that he has actually provided some links as said and - so far - he's either been ignored or dismissed out of hand. Would be interested in hearing why some of the organisations referred to in those reports are wrong and/or discredited.

I don't agree with the definition. Referencing any bad person to Hitler or the Nazis is a pretty standard comment. However, I can understand how that may be triggering for some so out of courtesy wouldn't do it again, having had it pointed out to me.

There are plenty of other genocidal maniacs throughout history that COYS could compare Netanyahu to, other than Hitler. Just go with one of them.

It might have been a bit too subtle, but my posting that I’m on tenterhooks after he provided links was me hilariously carrying on the trend of posting as if previous posts didn’t exist

Its not fair to just post a load of links and expect people to go through them. We need specifics.

Medical workers in Israel have told the BBC that Palestinian detainees from Gaza are routinely kept shackled to hospital beds, blindfolded, sometimes naked, and forced to wear nappies – a practice one medic said amounted to “torture”.

This morning, both Norway & Ireland have recognised the State of Palestine, Spain is believed to be following soon.

Israel has ordered it's Ambassadors home from those countries, and the Zionists on Twitter are doing their heads in over it

Very slowly, bit by bit, the world is turning against the Zionist apartheid state.

This is the beginning of the end for Israel, as it implodes in front of our eyes

Interesting that Spain has chosen to go down that path since they're very careful to avoid recognising other contentious areas such as Kosovo. Appreciate Palestine's situation isn't the same but they're usually more concerned about setting precedents for their Moroccan territories.

There you go, the voice of Palestine has spoken again. When are you going to utter one word about the destruction of Ukraine. I'll wager that you and your Scottish pal don't really give flying fcuk about Gaza, it's all a ruse to vomit out your hatred.

He is speaking sense.

When are you going to call out Russia, Hamas, Iran, China or any of the other hate-filled regimes?

He's referring to NATO expansion into what Russia considers to be its natural sphere of influence, and the CIA-led* Maidan protests in 2014 that led to the collapse of the Russian-backed government and the eventual election of the the pro-Western Zelenskyy government.

*Yes. It's a conspiracy theory that's very popular in certain circles.

It's a bit more than a conspiracy theory I was on about. This geo political analyst of some standing will explain it for you.

Anyway enough of Ukraine on an Israel thread. Here's a recent positive development for the Palestinians.

What was that business at the Phoenix cinema in East Finchley last night? I've read that protestors were trying to pressure the cinema into not showing a film about the massacre at the Nova music festival on 7 October. Is that right?

I know that they don't like anything about Israeli victims being displayed (i.e. missing persons posters) as they think it is all part of Israeli propaganda and distracts from Gazan civilian victims. But, given that even the likes of Owen Jones acknowledges that the attack on the music festival was a bad thing, why is this film such a problem?

Or is there an actual movement that actually thinks the attacks were good thing? (as per some of the images worn by protestors in the immediate aftermath of the October 7th attack and even before Israel had launched its full military response).
