Israel is not coterminous with Judaism.

I respect and like Judaism. My Lord was a Jew. Judeo Christianity has been a major civilising influence.

I deplore and despise the extreme right wing nationalism of Israel.

Never again should also be for those dying terrible deaths today. This time the victims are not Jews and others, but palistinians dying under Israeli bombs and rockets. Each one of those children were their parents beloved child.

I am sure every child put into the ovens of death camps and every child sacrificed to medical research by Mengele were

So that makes it ok then? No it doesn’t.
Two wrongs do not make a right.

I’ve never like Louis Theroux and his fake ‘innocent’ or rather gormless stance no matter where he is or who he’s interviewing.There are aggressive settlers and aggressive Palestinians in the West Bank.A plague on both their houses, let them get on with it.

His documentary was a rehash of the BBC documentary which was withdrawn after news that those involved were from Hamas families

No, it wasn't. It was about the West Bank (and specifically settlements) not Gaza.

The documentary wasn't about Nazi Germany. I expect Theroux is well aware of what happened during the war, but that doesn't give Israelis the right to grab Palestinian land.

It gives Palestinians the right to invade Israel ? no

I said Theroux was biased, his greetings to the Palestinians were so warm, his choice I know .

He greeted Daniella Weiss warmly too - that's his style.

That wasn't the issue. Palestine has never succeeded in grabbing Israeli land.
