Minute reality gets posted you run away. Before you do, can you at least answer that question? Where is the credible threat in the videos that shows t...
You don't have the right to defend yourself by killing the other person when there is no credible threat. right? For that you go to jail for murder. N...
@"Buxtebuddha" At least watch some of the videos of the reality (not the cartoon in your head). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2gg_lzCofM https://ww...
Have you watched any of the videos of the killings of civilians praying? Plus, a baby and eight other children died this time. Why would you applaud t...
You forgot the adjective again. Deadly force. There are methods of crowd control or of stopping crowds reaching a particular point other than shooting...
That's a bit Breitbart on steroids, but anyway, Israel didn't just react with force, it reacted with deadly force. The difference lies in the adjectiv...
I wouldn't go that far as sometimes there are purely innocent victims, children especially. But in so far as this is a call for deescalation, I totall...
Sure, we're all prone to that at times but you started with an attempt at point-scoring and you ended with sarcasm. There was literally nothing in bet...
The only thing worthwhile about our exchange then is it illustrates well your approach to serious debate. Maybe you should just bow out. There are tho...
I'm happy to say they were generally unarmed if that's more appropriate. As long as we agree on the basic facts, we agree. I'm not going to have an ar...
What I think is worth emphasizing is that within Israel there are different strands of opinion. As Hanover pointed out, Haaretz, one of the most popul...
Last quote from the article. “Traditionally we’ve tried to play a role of fireman in the Middle East. Now we’re playing the role of arsonist,” said Il...
You characterize protesting as instigating the violence as if it somehow justifies it. It doesn't. The violence came overwhelmingly from the Israeli s...
"Summing up the concern of many, the UN rights office spokesman Rupert Colville told reporters in Geneva: “The mere fact of approaching a fence is not...
"As senior UN rights officials condemned the killings as an “outrageous human rights violation” – adding that it appeared anyone approaching the Gaza ...
Hamas are the government of Gaza. They are involved in organizing everything official including funerals, community events etc. You don't get to shoot...
He'd say "Don't shoot." (Edit: Although it goes without saying that the Hamas leadership are no MLKs). It's excruciating. But I don't know what angle ...
I know you think you are genuinely on the right side here, and so do I, and it's unlikely we're going to change each other's minds. So, I think we'll ...
Unfortunately, it looks like the extremists on both sides are going to ensure that the moderates on both sides have no chance of finding an accommodat...
I think they do and it's fair that they do. But the two-state solution accommodates both sides. Problem is Bibi and some elements on the Palestinian s...
Fox News would be in paroxyms of rage to start with. Another useful way of looking at it is to imagine at one of the G20 summits where many protestors...
I'm sure there are plenty of Israelis who understand live rounds are not the only method to be used to control protestors and condemn this. Just imagi...
Had a look at Haaretz. Their reporting seems reasonably balanced, unlike some in the American media. Had enough of it today anyway. Sick world we live...
At least some politicians have the guts to call it straight: "Emily Thornberry MP, Labour’s Shadow Foreign Secretary, responding to the killing of Pal...
By aggressor, I meant the one who carried out the apparent physical assault. In a sense the mother's act is aggressive too, and I don't condone it, bu...

I like that reading. He's a smart writer who writes like a pervert. But don't be fooled by that, he really is a pervert. For sure. What's most strikin...
It is powerful isn't it? I didn't quite see the ending coming (if I did read it way back I'd forgotten it) but the message was pretty loud and clear f...
I don't really care about what you said about me, but I do care about the homophobic-type vulgarisms aimed at BC and then you lecturing us all on how ...
Porn and story don't make much of a cocktail anyhow. ;) I seem to remember reading this one a while back and liking it. I'll give it another shot and ...
