"Why start with 7th October? Why not start with the 6th
October and the decades prior to that date and what
has caused the mindsets that exist today?"

I did link the Golda Mier interview, which discusses the history back to when the land was controlled by the Ottomans, but tell me Foxy, do you think that raising your kids to have a genocidal hatred of a people can ever be justified, because i get the impression that you think it can be justified?

Those hundreds of thousands of refugees fleeing the hatred of newly created Arab nations were given a life in Israel and embraced freedom, hope and tolerance. Those displaced from Israel after having lost their war to kill Jews and expel them from the Middle East were not granted asylum by their Arab brothers. Instead, they remained in camps and became a monocultural autocracy, embracing hatred, intolerance, genocide and terrorism.

Hatred will destroy the lives of those who embrace it Foxy.

Fester,

Until you're placed in the position (on both sides of this
conflict) I think that judging others or taking side should
be a hard thing to do. When you see your family, your country
and everything you love being destroyed it would be easy to
have hatred in your heart. At least for a time.

And what you teach your children - can apply to both sides.

It's a complex situation. However, I do not support hatred.
I would have thought my posting record would show that.
I've had too much of it hurled at me.

Hi Foxy,

Would the inhabitants of Gaza be in any danger from Israelis if they did not bear arms against them or otherwise try to harm them?

You also present the argument that Jewish migration prior to 1945 did not involve appropriate consultation with the local population (like Albo not consulting Australians about their wishes with his current migration program?). Those migrants were fleeing things like Nazi labour camps and probable extermination, so how is a consultation process supposed to work in the chaos of war? Look what happened to the poor buggers on the St Louis, and the fate of the Struma was plain murder.

"I've had too much of it hurled at me."

You make a huge contribution to the debates on here Foxy and I am in awe of your efforts.

I'm trying to make sense of things. Like you, I think multicultural interaction beneficial for the development of a civilisation, yet I see you opposed to a nation born of multicultural origins, siding with people of a Romper Stomper mentality.

They're running out of men and there aren't enough over 25s left.
Zelensky even admitted it.

"Meanwhile things are going so well in Russia that its needed to get new cannon fodder from North Korea."
- I don't buy into this narrative, I'm yet to be convinced there are any North Koreans ground troops, I think it's just as likely they are Russians who are from the regions i.e Buryats. Russia does have a border with North Korea you know.

It was good that Trump has cancelled funding to USAID though, the department for regime changes...

One of the lies about Gazans among the tut-tutting about how sweet they are is the blatant lie about “genocide” and the misuse of the word to suit crazy activists and Jew-haters.

The population in Gaza grew by 2.07% in 2023, and by 2.02% in 2024. The only “genocide” in history where the population has GROWN!

Yes ttbn,
The Israelis can't kill them fast enough.
