typical comment from Daithi

Perhaps it is, I’m just baffled that it barely gets a mention nearly every second day when Israeli combat planes bomb Gaza and assassinate people across the world (using Irish people’s identities too).

Diplomats are legitimate targets. Especially when the establishment they belong to frequently make targets out of innocent little children in an enclosed area

Well.jimmy hamas hezbollah supported by Iran and that oyher paragon.of human rihhts Syria regulsrly attack.civilian targets in.Israel…two wrongs?

Absolutely not two wrongs. The 4th largest military power in the world, armed with the most sophisticated modern weapons and nuclear arms versus a virtually defenseless civilian population. Forgetting about Hamas, who’s only weapons are a few AK47s and lousy rockets made in their back gardens, Israel’s main targets always prove to be civilians. Even suggesting that there is some kind of vague ‘balance’ between the ‘sides’ is grossly misunderstanding the entire situation.

A few ak47s and home made rockets…you are talking bull…if that was the case why did IDF have their “vietnam” moment in Gaza. It amazes me how easily some Irish people fall for the propoganda from these preachers of hate and disregard the realities

And you still avoid what I’m saying.

Israel

Target

Civilians

Israel DO NOT intentionally target civilians. Prior to operations they warn civilians. Hamas launch attacks from.behind cover of civilianhuman shields. Open your eyes

What do you know seriously? I’ve been there. Have many Egyptian and Palestinian friends and heard their first-hand stories. You’re just another victim to western corporate and state propaganda. I hope you wake up one day. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFK5TNcmEmg

And how.many jewish and Israeli friends do you have? How much time did you devote to the other side of conflict? Hamas could have peace tomorrow..recognise Israel…simple

No point trying to argue your point with Mr Mooney, he believes everything sky news tells him! Everyone who sees what’s really going on in the mid east have their eyes closed or are asleep according to him!

“Hamas could have piece tomorrow, recognise Israel”.

What complete and utter nonsense. Really. Do you honestly believe everything you write?

I agree with Dec.

peace*

firstly dec..i do not get my news from sky (or any otgan of murdoch media empire) or fox or similar. i prefer the BBC and Channel 4 and al jazeera fyi. i weigh up pros and cons and when Israel steps out of line I will condemn her..unlike the apologists for jihadi terror who constantly harrangue moderates who like me believe in fairness and objectivity

Be fair then Colm, and just accept that there are people on here that may know a bit more about things that just simply get reported on BBC news! Or even just accept that people don’t see things the way you do… Israel are engaging in attacks on their neighbours all the time, and their neighbours are entitled to respond. Israel has the right to defend itself! The balance of control in the region is all over the place, it has not been determined yet and that’s whats to be fought for… And it will be! Soon!! I have a feeling if things get very bad for Israel that they will use Nukes, the only way I can see this not being as easily considered is if Israel gives up their nukes or some other country’s in the region obtain their own nukes… All of what I believe is based on what I read or see or from listening to people, I don’t have first hand info but what I do know 100% is that it really worries me, all this can’t be good!

i am fair and see both sides..i am.sick of being insulted and harrangued..referred to.by terms such as idiot hun coz of my religion schuck and being told that i “delight in muslims being slaughtered” fair..im.exttremely fair and im computer.literate i may get my news from bbc but i do know how to get both sides of story. israel has the right to exist and defend herself as do.her neighbours. but she is not butchering innocents on.the street syria is and if the world doesnt act well the extremists will.take advantage of the vaccuum and with syrias nuke prgm well then that will be scary.

Completely different Terry. Assassinating scientists who are developing nuclear weapons to wipe out your country is a matter of survival, killing diplomats is not.

u have been listening to Jim corr too much

It was probably Iran getting back at US/Mossad for assassination of those Iranian scientists ,though it looks a bit amateur hour

Hi Connor – I think Jim Corr is a looper mate.

Regarding my views, I form them from reading and listening to regular and irregular media sources from all around the globe. It’s one of my hobbies. There is a huge body of evidence that points to a major war against Iran in the very near future. I just shudder when I think about it.

They’ll box Syria off next, then onto the Iran. Mission complete so far in Afghanistan, Iraq and Lybia.

Libya even!

We can only hope sooner rather than later.

As much as I hate to admit it, there is little or no regard for morals in this world today. Just look at the comments here to see the sickening cheerleading for Israel and its abuses and mass murder over the last few decades.

unfortunately Aoife that seems to be an Irish debating thing…tangents!
