Make peace

Sorry Iamnut, but Allah forbids it !

Dear Bazz,

You surprise me with your comments.
I would have expected more from you.
Why are you blaming a particular religion
for what some zealots make out of it.
I would have thought that it is debatable
whether one can blame any religion for its
mis-use. Be it Islam, Christianity, or Judaism.

As for blaming Hamas for -
"humiliating and manipulating world media"

How on earth can that be taken seriously -
when the Jewish lobby is so powerful globally.
But of course to criticise the actions of Israel
one is immediately accused of anti-Semitism.

However as Thomas Friedman wrote:

"Criticising Israel is not anti-Semitic and saying so
is vile. But singling out Israel for opprobrium and
international sanction - out of all proportion to
any other party in the Middle East - is anti-Semitic,
and not saying so is dishonest."

The fact is that Israel is the largest recipient of US
foreign aid, and is widely regarded as one of the
world's strongest military powers, with its arsenal of
nuclear weapons.

Hamas manipulating world media?

If only that were true - and we could get a more humane
picture of the Palestinian side of the conflict.

These sort of finger-pointing articles that Mr Singer
regularly puts out - don't
achieve anything constructive. His is the sort of
arguments that leave little room for serious
discussion.

Since when is self defence "extremism", David G?

Prior to WW2, Churchill was condemned by people who think like you as a "warmonger" because he stated the obvious, that war with Germany would come, so we had better start preparing for it.

The western world is now in a state of war with Islam, but in the same way that appeasers and Jews in Europe were in denial about Nazi Germany's intentions, people like yourself are in denal about Islam and it's intentions.

Islam is a totalitarian ideology on a mission to conquer the world and it makes no secret about that. The amazing thing is that it's intent to take over the world and to kill anybody who's opposes it's spread, criticise it, or even leave it, is all laid out in it's own version of "Mein Kampf". Yet you whistle, pretend not to see, and make excuses for the people who have an ideology that you must join in their insanity or they will kill you. Your concept that there are "moderate" Muslims and a few "extremist" Muslims who give the "moderates" a bad name, makes as much sense as saying the same thing about Nazis.

It is just amazing how educated and supposedly intelligent people always become advocates for ideologies which have failed everywhere. Socialism, multiculturalism, and now Islam, is defended by people like yourself when history has proven that these ideologies have produced nothing but ruined economies, totalitarians state, and societies riven by internal divisions at war with one another.

Israel is the front line of the western world against advancing Islam. It is the only nation state now actively shooting back at the people who openly declare their intention in their own scriptures to convert us, or kill us. I really admire the Israelis for that and I support them all the way. The bottom line is, that it is entirely morally right to ethnically cleanse people who have openly declared their intention of ethnically cleansing you, and who's everyday actions confirm that they are very serious about doing just that.

Israelis wear our clothes but their hearts wear a dark veil.

This is how Hamas governs and implements justice --- and this is what imajulianutter & Steele have been defending ---take a long look, it reads like an incident of SS retribution during WWII, but it is common practice in Hamasland.

<<Gaza militants Friday gunned down 18 alleged spies for Israel in an apparent attempt to plug security breaches and deter others...Hamas media said the shootings signaled the start of a new crackdown, under the rallying cry of "choking the necks of the collaborators." It was the largest number of suspected informers killed in a single day under Hamas rule.>>

As one newspaper said in reference to ISIS --PURE EVIL!

Little wonder you dont see any Palestinian versions of Gideon Levy, eh!
