I am a lot older than you, and I have proven my age, but when I go back, it asks me to verify my age again to access the chat. I haven't had any access for weeks.

These are the faces of those people who voted to censure. We have a very dark past of racism in this country, it seems the future will not be brighter. It very much puts into context how weak the voice would've been under the ALP if they couldn't even take this kind of truth-telling!

Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich said, "The village of Huwara needs to be wiped out." Netanyahu himself spoke of “crushing our enemies into the dust,” furthering a narrative of bloodlust. Such statements create an atmosphere where civilian lives are devalued, contributing to the ongoing tragedy.

Only been a short time here and talking about war crimes or conventions to stop them you will find many different takes some very anti human rhetoric to be found. But you will also see this mirrored in media and in governments. So I not at all surprised.

I love the flavour! Can't talk or discuss, just get called a racist and some sort of asset In this thread. ciao.

These are people in their own country, they are killing, it is not a myth. I am sorry if you think it is. I am just trying to point out it is not racist to call out a government for war crimes such as collective punishment. These people they are killing are not their government.

Is it racist to question a governments actions and the way they are treating people. I see footage of dead children every day pulled limp from the rubble of buildings bombed by the IDF. Questioning military and government choices is not racist.

Yes but also it maimed and killed people and surely this kind of operation is to cause paranoia and terror in the Lebanese population that they could strike anywhere.

I am ok to be wrong and am grateful you have brought it to my attention. but you have to admit this has affected more then the intended target and is an act intended to cause terror that we will not know the full ramifications of for some time. I don’t think this will end well for anyone.

From this doc it seems to be possible Israel was trying to also kill or maim health care workers but it seems they have no limits they will cross as we have seen from the last eleven months. I just think this is a straight out terrorist attack.

They wanted to be more of a local racist than an international racist. How quaint.

Yes, this deal looks bad even when we can't see the details. Better to keep your sovereignty than to see it pissed away in a sabre-rattling suicide pact.
