@ chopper: A proven liar isn't the best of sources for your ideas; also it's from The Daily Heil, which is about as balanced as Lizzo doing a wheelie on a unicycle. 

It's a shite situation in those parts with the real potential to flare up into something much, much bigger, and vitriol like the shite above isn't going to help things one way or another.

From my perspective it looks like genocide in Palestine is occurring in clear sight, which is a bit of a lousy state of affairs for 2023.

It's good for arms exports I'd imagine though.

Not sure if the video will be taken down or allowed to run, it’s pretty grim stuff. How can anyone expect Isreal not to go all out after this. Hamas knew exactly what they were doing. Iran called the shots and destroyed the upcoming agreements between Israel and other Middle East nations. I watch the antics of the protesters in London recently and despair at the Mets pathetic approach. London and a number of other locations are borderline lost when it comes to law and order. What is interesting is Starmers predicament right now with pressure from within his own ranks.

A little bit of genocide is forgivable eh Rwanda?

"The October 7 massacre is among the most depraved events in the history of human cruelty."... OK.. sure it is amongst the most depraved. Would barely scrape top 100 I guess (take that '100' as figuratively, I am not going to list 100 acts worse than this, probably get bored by about 30).
