Hi Yuyutsu,
"The question being, are Judaism and Islam truly religions?"

Well I guess that depends on how we define what a religion is.
I see woke-ism as a godless religion, maybe even the climate change agenda too.
- Where people 'believe' regardless of facts to the contrary

Hi Paul,
Since I complained so much about the wrongfulness of blowing up entire hospitals and apartment buildings, maybe I should just be grateful they didn't blow up the whole place up.
- Mind you, they probably would've if not for the ICJ.

They've pulled up on the genocidal comments to some degree, but are still killing Palestinians at will. I think the current issue for Palestinians is risk of starvation, who knows how many have died already.

IMO Israel, (with the support of the US, three cargo plane loads of munitions every day) most certainly have been inciting and committing genocide.

If the media can say 'Iranian backed Houthi terrorists' (when they just want the killing of Palestinians to stop), then 'US backed genocidal Israeli's' is just as much a fitting statement.

America has blood on it's hands and is a party to this conflict, (party to most conflicts truth be told) so they will just deny, deny, deny, and talk rubbish like Israel does.

Netanyahu talks about how IDF is the most moral military.
- I think about the kids in Gaza getting amputations without anesthetic and many others starving, innocent people (non combatants) I've seen murdered in cold blood and think that these Israelis are lying lunatics.
The really dangerous part may be that they actually believe some of the things they say.

I can't remember the saying IDF use.
But apparently there are no innocent people in Gaza.
Palestinians are the biblical Amalek, which need to be destroyed in entirety.
Many Israelis celebrate the murder and killing of innocents with much joy.
Israel is a sick nation, corrupted by the occupation.

That said Americas not much better, if they bombed Australia tomorrow 35% of the country would cheer, whilst being unable to even find us on a map.

To add insult to injury, Australian police have decided that Palestinian demonstrators in Sydney were not screaming “Gas the Jews”; they were saying “Where's the Jews?”

What absolute BS! Apart from the grammatical illiteracy of either the coppers or the Palestinian rioters, the two sound NOTHING alike. And, why would Jew-haters be enquiring about the location of Jews!

A phonics expert has called it out as ridiculous nonsense from people uneducated in phonics listening to an audio track. Unfortunately, the only experts believed in hard Left Albostralia are those also on the hard Left who want to cover for the lies and the misinformation of the government that they accuse others of.

This incident has certainly attracted significant
public interest in what was chanted outside the
Sydney Opera House during the pro-Palestinian protest.
One side accuses, the other denies. All in all sowing
discord amongst both sides and their supporters.

Detectives from their Strike Force team continue to
investigate the incident.

It's an emotive issue for both sides. Hate speech and
encouraging violence in any protests - should not be
tolerated by any of us. And certainly should be controlled
by our laws and police. No excuses tolerated.

Communities must be made aware of what is acceptable and
what is not. And if you break the law you shall be
punished.

We have to wait and what the final outcome will be. It is
unfortunate that this conflict has reached our shores in
this unhealthy manner.

The expert mentioned above is Dr. Helen Fraser, Director of the ‘Research Hub for Language in Forensic Evidence at The University of Melbourne’, who was not involved in the investigation.

She said that the investigation was far too prone to cognitive bias, and lacking in “scientific probity”. Creating a reliable transcript of indistinct audio is a specialised task, “requiring real, not the ad hoc ‘expertise’ of police officers. The senior police officer reporting the ‘findings’ was very nervous/shifty, and didn't identify the ‘expert’ who came up with the misinformation. There probably was no expert, just cops.

I have listened to the clip from Ch. 9 news, and the terror-supporters in front of our own Australian Opera House were definitely shouting “gas the Jews”. We have reached a very low point in this country.

But, hey! The politicised police have given the politicians what they want to hear, and Australia slips further again down on the democratic and justice scale. That's what they want.

Listening to a Muslim woman who was at the protest stating," Weres the Jews" on TV last night indicates they are deceivers and liars, and the intent would be the same as "Gas the Jews"- as they wanted to do them harm. This deception has let them off the charges by those Palestinian supporter investigators. Islam knows how to weasel their way out of charges of violence, they put forward young women as defending their cause. Did you notice that during the street protests they posted on Facebook doe-eyed young women supporting Hamas war on Israel.

I see the Guardian has reported the lie to deceive the public.
"New South Wales police say an independent investigation found no evidence pro-Palestine protesters used the offensive phrase “gas the Jews” during a march near the Sydney Opera House two days after the 7 October attacks on Israel.

Initial reports of the chant were widely reported around the world and condemned by local politicians, but police say an independent expert who examined a number of audio and visual files found with “overwhelming certainty” that the words used were “where’s the Jews?”'

The video was obviously one of hostile anger, why were they chanting "Where' the Jews? It had the same intent to do harm. Our police investigators are corrupt and cannot control protests.
