Hi Foxy,

Don't be fooled into believing that some far right extremist is, "a strong supporter of Israel", that can be misleading. For some of the more extreme, its a case of; "The enemy of my enemy is my "friend"". They are anti Semitic, but their hatred and mistrust of Muslims is even great than their anti Jewish slant, so they view this as opportunity to attack Islam through Zionism. They are not perturbed to see Israelis killed, believing the Israelis will kill even greater numbers of Palestinians, that's their aim.

The decades old conflict between Jews and Palestinians in the former British Mandate for Palestine has never been resolved.

- And I think there is an unwillingness on the part of Israel to genuinely try to resolve it, they want more land.

I think that the people living under occupation have every right to fight against those who subjugate them and they have as much right to their own sovereign state and to live free as much as anyone else.

That said, I oppose the killing of all innocent people regardless of which side they're on, and on some level I understand that Palestinians have genuine reason for animosity towards Israelis / the Zionist state of Israel.

And while I don't condone these atrocities, I could understand a sense of 'Now you know how we feel' from the Palestinians living under occupation.

"You are either pro Israel or pro Hamas. There is no in between."

I don't have to choose, if forced to then I'm pro-Australia, and for the rights of innocent people to live free.

If you really want me to take a side, then my conscience forces me to support the right of those under occupation to live free.

One side says snow white gave this land to us and we need to remove these people,
The other side says snow white says we have to wipe them all out.

I care not for religions, I only care that all human beings should have a right to a peaceful dignified existence and to live free.

Calls from steps of the Sydney Opera House for Jews to be killed 'from the Jordan river to the Mediterranean sea'.

Calls to 'gas the Jews'.

How about that hate speech legislation. Oh, it doesn't apply to terrorist supporters in Australia, apparently.

Still no condemnation from the Australian National Council of Imams.

Albanese is more concerned about Islamophobia than calls for death for Jews.

For all the pathetic dills voting Yes to the Voice because of what other countries might think of Australia, the answer is they are not interested.

But, the the videos of Hamas supporters in Australia has disgusted people world wide.

Foxy,

I do support Israel against the murderous forces trying to kill its civilians, but I don't consider any criticism antisemitism.

However, the trolls that try to blame Israel for this incident are clearly antisemites. The greens are clearly antisemitic and Labor is tilting that way too with Albozo being one of the very last to condemn the barbarity of the Hamas attempt at genocide and only doing so because he ran out of options. The support of NSW Labor for the Jewish-hating parade supporting the massacre will haunt them for decades.

The atrocities cannot be forgiven or not punished. Israel is more than justified in hunting down and destroying Hamas, and if Hamas hides behind its women and children as it has done so many times before, then the deaths are on their heads.
