Thread Name: BS: Small hope for Israel/Palestine
Subject: RE: BS: Small hope for Israel/Palestine
The images coming out of Gaza are a minute picture of what is taking place there - they represent a tiny tip of a massive iceberg.
By and large they are censored for public consumption - the images of corpses and those injured and maimed are unbroadcastable, so we get quick snatches of patents being rushed into hospitals on trolleys, or covered corpses being lamented over by grieving survivors.
The vast areas of devastation that have been created are so vast that they cannot be photographed without arial equipment, so we are left with brief snapshots and words like "devastation" and "masses of rubble".
If you people who support this murder whinge about these images being presented, I will be fascinated to see your reaction when the overall picture is put up for public view and the full consequences are discussed.   
Your lot has supported this crime without question even before it began - some of you have been advocating that something like this should happen in your claims that Palestinians have no right to their homeland and should be prepared to move out at the behest of an aggressive state.
You describe practical opposition to Israeli terrorism as "terrorism" and verbal opposition as "Antisemitism".
In these discussions, none of you have attempted to rationally discuss a solution to the problems caused by a dying Empire, anxious to rid itself of a troublesome subject, having scratched together a solution that satisfied nobody, and pissing off hurriedly, leaving two opposing people to sort it out or themselves - any attempts to discuss it on this level are either ignored or aggressively sneered at.
You alone blame "the Jews" for for this State terrorism, nobody else here has; it is hardly surprising that the genuine Jew haters of this world are going to take up your offer and use what is happening as a platform in the same way as you have used "Antisemitism" as a substitute for rational argument.
I hope that we don't all have to enjoy the fruits of your endevours.
Carry on cut-'n-pasting Booboo, is seems to be all you are capable of.
