Nothing but nothing, can excuse Israel breaking the cease-fire in Gaza

- without warning, in the middle of the night- in the middle of Ramadan.

NOTHING.

Did we ever get an answer to whose decision it was, to move the location of that tragic music festival, to a place so near the 'border' with Gaza?
Yes Whitewavemark2, and if anyone cares to look at a map, to see how the territory was divided up at the time, you will notice by how much the Israeli faction has 'land grabbed' what was intended for the Palestinians.

Oh, victim blaming, nice!

Are you saying it's wrong to feel emotion about these atrocities?
Isn't Anniebach expressing emotion in that post you have quoted?

She wasn’t being personal.

You know growstuff you don’t need to bring religion into this at all in regard to other posters.
If hamas, as the recognised government of Gaza hadn’t sanctioned, let alone planned the deadly incursion into Israel then we would have had nothing to discuss on here today.
They spent so much money on themselves, on arms and tunnels that there was nothing left for the people of Gaza or for their protection, but for all the miles and miles of tunnels they haven’t allowed any citizens to shelter in them or done anything at all for them.

I wasn't the person who introduced religion.

I know you like sniping at me (whatever floats your boat, dear), but Anniebach's post just didn't make sense. Mine wasn't an emotional response, unless you count despair at lack of logical argument as emotion.

It is a fact that the Israeli attacks happened during Ramadan.

Attack happened during Ramadan and Lent

There is no excuse for Israel. Cowardly and brutal behaviour, they are butchers.. I wish all those people were out of their misery now, aid is not getting through and Israel won’t stop until they are all dead. I cant believe all Jews think, that others are sub human and they have divine right?

If you want cowardly and brutal behaviour look no further than Hamas. Have you forgotten the massacre that started all this?
A Country has a right to protect itself from murderous fanatics and to retaliate.

Victim blaming? Someone made that crazy decision, and those poor folk suffered. Yes, I would still like to know if anyone has had the courage to admit it, and explain why they put those youngsters into such danger.

I’m not personal to you growstuff neither do I notice your postings enough to enjoy ‘sniping’ at you.
Asking a poster to justify their religion is a no-no and in my book is both personal, emotional and unfair.

Personal to whom?

When and where. did he say this ?

Maremia Fri 21-Mar-25 16:27:51

Allsorts, no, all Jews do not believe that. Just read all the posts on Facebook and other media where Jews are speaking out against Netanyahu. The sad thing is all Jews will suffer from the rise just now in anti-semitism. If I want to visit my friend's synagogue, I now have to go through a series of security checks.

Anniebach Fri 21-Mar-25 16:28:30

Again we have reached the best form of defence is attack

Maremia Fri 21-Mar-25 16:29:13

Anniebach... actions speak louder than words. He is showing us his intention.

As usual 🤔 but posters should reserve their ire for hamas not posters on GN.

Maremia Fri 21-Mar-25 16:30:54

Stop being in denial Orea, the festival was moved very close to the border. If that was for innocent reasons, what were those logistical and innocent reasons? You don't know do you ,or you would have put us right about this detail.

It is definitely recorded. It was before he became PM. I can find it if you want, but I’m sure you can find it.

The big fight here is, of course Western v. Eastern values - America and Iran. It is a proxy war that those with the bigger weapons will win.

The two music festivals were thought to be on ideal ground as the main problem was thought to be noise and nuisance.
A few IDF officers thought it could be a problem, not from over 3,000 hamas supporters but from possible missiles.
To try and maintain conspiracy theories around this is beyond the pale.

We have to fervently hope that those with Western values and not Eastern terrorists ones will win.

Yes, and I posted the link and video right here.

To try and find a justification for the October massacre is appalling. Innocent people were kidnapped or hacked to death by drug-crazed terrorists. A medieval massacre that earned a full military response from a modern nation.
