Israel is a rogue State if ever there was one. It only exists due to the US taxpayer, American fundamentalists still living in a past long one. We are constantly told about how wonderful Israel is as a democratic country and all the usual Zionist myths and lies. On the old Opera forums I mentioned much of the clandestine stuff it gets involved in and even amongst it's own people. Stealing British, Australian passports for agents to use to go and kill someone the actions of it's armies against the occupied and so on. It is dying to have a go at Iran and maybe it should and then get it's come comeuppance as it is overdue. Soldiers who misuse their authority, act horribly and kill large numbers of the incontinent. That neo-fascist Israel refuses to recognise a homeland for Palestinians is yet another joke on the word 'democracy' or rights. I also detailed how Israel internally treated Ethiopian Jews as something to be kept at the end of a pole and Christians sometimes get that too.

All the buk about Iran H bombs but Israel and America keeps silent on what Israel has. The Zionists demand that all the land they are is illegally is theirs as it was theirs 3,000 years ago. Their spiritually however is a bit of something else when one considers that they were to be put out for ever! They are no fifferent from the 3rd Reich of the 1930's in land expansion, invading, refusing to give up territory that is not theirs. Of course they get away with it becausehey US is so far up their behind. If ever a showdown came and that damn arrogant country was on the verge of collapse what great news that would be. And you know what? America would cobble together some excuse and make their nonsense about rights and freedoms even more ludicrous.

How many terrorists were killed in the dreadful attack on Gaza? We know fine well it was the civilians who took the brunt in such an overcrowded place and on top of that the Jews hem the place in along the coast as well. It is a despicable, Zionist place that misuses Old Testament and European history and time and time again gets off with anything it does because of the veto exercised in their favour at the UN Security Council. Blotzreigs, Gestapo style secret actions, assassinations, lies. Yeah maybe in hindsight Europe has an influence! Dam the country.

I tried very hard and came up with nothing.

I tried this...
late 14c., "wanting in self restraint," from Old French incontinent, from Latin incontinentem (nominative incontinens) "incontinent, immoderate, intemperate," from in- "not, opposite of" (see in- (1)) + continens (see continent ). Originally chiefly of sexual appetites; sense of "unable to control bowels or bladder" first attested 1828.
...and that didn't help.

Shows how much you know Oakdale and that isn't much so easy to work you out. And as for Ireland racism is active there too.

On that rogue haven of Zionism it shows the propaganda we get about how wonderful Israel is even though it acts like a ME imperialist. It doesn't think the Palestinians should be allowed a State and how arrogant is that one? okay for them but not someone else. The number of times their military has acted wrongly is a long list. The country treats Jews from places it is not keen on like rubbish and gets away with anything thanks to it's US funders. Throw in stealing land, misusing people and restricting their rights and we see another typical hypocrisy. If it does not suit the ex-colonists on this forum then you get a label and the Jews get away with murder - practically too. Maybe one day the place might be more honest about it's own H bomb matter hbut don't hold the proverbial breath.

There is no country more up the mental arse of Israel than America but there again all the hype from fundamentalist Christians plus the Jewish influenced media and the money barons explains much. Maybe Israel should attack Iran and then we might get rid of the damn Zionist control freaks.

Why you shouldn't watch so much TV:

Quote

If anyone needs further evidence of why the news agencies often can’t be trusted to report accurately on Israel and the Palestinians, and why major news outlets such as the New York Times and the BBC should stop repeating agency copy without verifying it, here is an important example from this weekend.

According to Italian and Spanish news outlets and according to the Vatican’s own website, Pope Francis told Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas that he could be an angel of peace. “May you be an angel of peace,” he urged Abbas, effectively saying that if Abbas would take the decision to accept one of the peace offers that various Israeli prime ministers have made to him, or at least make a serious counter-offer, he could be an angel of peace. The pope did not say that Abbas – infamous for ordering the Munich Olympic massacre, among many other atrocities – was “an angel of peace.”
(source)

I plead with you, Howie, to take the poor decades-long "displaced" Palestinians into your large and largely unpopulated northern part of the major British isle, since their Arab neighbors -even after concerted "efforts" by the U.N.- seem continually uninterested in their plight!
Surely, they are culturally and politically simpatico! (How -exactly- I don't know… But I could expound a likely scenario, if you asked nicely!

) And your "nation"'s birth-rate requires some propping up, no?

The piece ends:

Quote

Meanwhile the website of the official Radio Vatican doesn’t even report on the Pope’s angels comment at all, apparently judging it unimportant.

Former Middle East reporters such as myself (“The Case of Reuters”) and Matti Friedman (who used to work at AP’s Jerusalem bureau) have long warned about the impartiality of the major news agencies coverage of the Middle East.

But then too often do reporters and editors at the New York Times, BBC, and elsewhere seem to be happy reporting on what they want to hear, rather than on what was actually said or done, when it comes to the Palestinians and Israel.

(I expect few to read a whole article, or to honestly parse what their tellies and favorite newspapers tell them… So: I post the last few paragraphs too.)
What about the odyssey of the Palestinians is not understood — by everyone who's given it any thought?
———————————————————————————————————
Just in case you missed it: "the impartiality of the major news agencies coverage of the Middle East" means "the partiality of etc.…". What prompts such, propels it, and purifies it, as a liberal trope does indeed mystify me…

As you are a Yank Oakdale, I will understand that you don't know much about the outside world. Racism does exist in places like Dublin and regarding immigrants. Racism also exists in your pal Israel and I raised that in the Opera and this Forum. Now being a non-Jew and living in the 4th ME Reich and citizenship is a struggle. Even Jews who are non-white can be added. Zionism is flourishing in the country but overlooked by the land of the free and home of the brave.

You can actually be amusing Oakdale. When it comes to national racism who can beat America? Right from the start and that wee bit of paper for rights and such it was only legal for whites. Racism was endemic. You had an army during WW2 which had to have Apartheid to avoid white going daft being with blacks. If it was not so serious it would be amusing fighting racist Nazis. Even today race is a nation-wide matter in cities, work, police and much else. At the last Presidential farce race was a national issue. Not surprised your israeli pals often exercise their own racial matters and it is a close pals act between the USA and Zionist land. Israel only exists with US taxpaters dish outs and military hardware support. On the other side of the coin so much of the corporate control and media in the US is Jewish involved.

For all your guff about rights, freedoms and all the usual baloney Israel gets away with anything because it knows the US will exercise a veto at the UN. That the Palestinians cannot have a proper State is a damn disgrace and you lot with all your keech about rights and freedoms are a disgrace. Israel steals land, evicts people from their homes and farms it even persecutes Jews from Africa,etc. The two of you do have something very deeply in common - hypocrisy. The Protocols of Zion may well have been daft but the bosom pals between nut job land and the Zionistist is a damn dangerous partnership.

Many years ago I witnessed a few young guys driving their cars 'round the Drive-Thru lane of a local fast food establishment. They drove very fast!
It was after midnight, so business wasn't stiffled. But after a half-hour the squealing tires and revving engines had begun to annoy me. (I worked at a shop next door.)
I accosted the "racers" and asked them to quit. I was told, "We're just going 'round in circles. What could happen?"
I muttered, "Not a NASCAR fan, are you?" Much louder, I threatened calling the police…
The "racers" quit for the evening, and lived another day.
Yay!

You certainly are a dancer Oakdale.

A country that is created with a wonderfully principled Constitution and the creators made it clear the system was for whites and nobody else. That was right from the START. Northern States looked down on those south of the Mason-Dixon and tutted on slavery whilst ignoring the hard fact that slave ships docked at northern harbours. That arch hypocrite the wonderful Abarham Lincoln (groan) who's statue I ignored on my two visits to nutjob land gave out the guff about slavery. And what do you know in private conversations he made it clear that voting and staus for blacks was a nono. Right into the 1960's there were still non-whites without a vote, getting violence and how do you explain all the racial history violence right from the start I mention? Principles mean sod all except on paper. Even your army as I reminded had to operate racist rules during WW2 fighting racist Germans. Brilliant! So be as satirical as you feel inclined to because the principles do not match the practice and it is still the same today. Yeah blah about principles, freedoms, rights, constitution but in practice means nothing. The only success in your long racial circus is there are no longer 2 million KKK members running police, city councils, police officers and so on. You are a bit more subtle about the keeping the blacks down nowa.

As I have pointed out - anything outside of the Rockwell man is socialist so no surprise your country is in a damn internal mess. Creating wars everywhere, police out of control with guns, tens of millions of poor. All self-created so kind of shows great at being politically inept. We have a wider tolerance in our system and indeed representation.

Under Trump, USA moved its embassy to Jerusalem, recognising it as Israel's capital. Under Biden, USA still claims self-defense for Israel, but not for Palestine.

And as usual, Israel started it. Not for self-defense, not even for pre-emptive self-defense, but because it is opportune for Netanyahu yet again.

Quote from: https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-conflict-5-14-a76702fdfcad4692922d6a11533e0f08

The fighting has, for the moment, disrupted efforts by Netanyahu’s political opponents to form a new government coalition, prolonging his effort to stay in office after inconclusive elections. His rivals have three weeks to agree on a coalition but need the support of an Arab party, whose leader has said he cannot negotiate while Israel is fighting in Gaza.

Hamas is a terrorist organization and their rocket attacks should be unconditionally condemned. But this was also calculated political recklessness and opportunism by Netanyahu. His political end is nigh and apparently, cynically, a battle for Jerusalem during Ramadan is just the thing. Close the gate, close the Al-Aksa mosque without provocation, kick people out of their homes, wait for the Hamas deplorables to take the bait. Mission accomplished, even if presumably slightly more so than expected.

Also keep in mind Hamas has more popular support among Palestinians now because of that wretched wall and because of the increasingly apartheid-based state.

Here's an opinion piece from Israel.

Quote from: https://www.haaretz.com/opinion/.premium-those-who-thirst-for-blood-1.9801427

The security mavens want as much war as possible because in their heart of hearts they like wars, those are their strongest memories. A war that is never enough for them, just to hit them, to prove that we’re strong. All the wars in Gaza and Lebanon, which didn’t accomplish anything, didn’t teach them anything either. They stick to their guns. If only we had listened to them at the time, there would have been tens of thousands of dead, and only then would the desired victory have been attained, which will never be attained.

Like fata morgana in the desert, they approach victory, and it distances itself from them. It will never be attained by force. Since we didn’t listen to them, they’re trying again. To strike and smash, a ludicrous caricature from the mouths of those who were once generals, or those who dreamed of being generals and weren’t.
