"NKVD relied heavily on informants"

I think in Gaza they are deliberately staving them so they are desperate and more amenable to giving up info.
Staving the Palestinians gives the Israeli's a leg-up to essentially create desperate Palestinians who are more willing to inform on their own.

Dear Foxy,

«If you support Israel and not it's current
government then I take it that you also support
a two-state solution.»

I would indeed support it wholeheartedly if the so-called "Palestinians" genuinely wanted (or at least agreed) to have their own state, side by side with Israel.

I pray that happens and if it does, then it would be one of the best boons Israel could ever hope for - far better for example than that criminal Messiah arriving to establish a reign of terror over it...

«If we support Israel and a free Palestine we must
not only oppose the current Israeli government but we
must also oppose Hamas.»

True. I oppose both.

There is a glimmer of hope in a two-state solution.
We need to spread this message world-wide.

We may be feeling over-whelmed at the moment
by this conflict. Overwhelmed by the challenges and
obstacles.

Let us remind ourselves to take things in our stride and
tackle each hurdle, one step at a time.

"The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step".

AC wrote:" Do you have any evidence, or is it all just made up, as the west does."

Oh noes thinks I. Now I'll have to spend ten minutes finding the post(s) where AC attempted to justify the Uighur genocide.

But then he did it for me....
"Your 'Uighurs' - was actually western sponsored Islamic terrorist uprising, and the Chinese had to take measures to stop the violence and restore order."

Apparently wiping out one Islamic terrorist group is okey-dokey when the CCP does it, and a crime against humanity when those evil Joos do it. But don't say that's antisemitic, nosireee

And while AC stopped to swap the foot in his mouth, he wrote....

"And stupid people like you fall for it."

The dill who fell for the Lavrov Russian language story has no place talking about stupid people falling for it, whatever it is.

"Same in Stalinist Russia, the NKVD relied heavily on informants."

Around 5% of the population of East Germany were informers for the Stasi. Mothers informing on fathers, fathers on mothers, kids on parents (the Stasi excelled in tricking kids into that). Neighbours. Work colleges. Complaining about having to stand in a queue while standing in a queue was a life-threatening activity.

Of course, these attitudes aren't limited to totalitarian regimes. There is a subset of humanity who just love dobbing in those who act differently to themselves. During the lockdowns, any number of informers were anxious to report non mask wearers, those exercising contrary to government dictates or those flouted stay at home rules. And the government encouraged such activity...to its shame and the shame of the informers.

Even today we have people in parts of NSW who are forced to have signage in their yards if they use boar or tank water, to stop the Mrs. Kravitz, (http://youtu.be/Ojc7ioTZJ2g) of this world from informing on them for flouting water restrictions.
