@LBC@lewis_goodall I think the South Africans feel a particular empathy with the Palestinian cause. Both have had to struggle against a white settler regime and brutal system of apartheid.
@Simon3206639986@LBC@mrjamesob Except this is not a “war”. It’s not even a “conflict”. It’s the brutal and indiscriminate destruction of a population that’s already subject to a military occupation.
@LBC Sadly, any call up would disproportionately affect the lower strata of British society. The ruling classes might well start this war but will do anything to prevent their offspring being placed in harm’s way.
@Jackiew80333500 Religious leaders, whatever their race or belief aren’t always the upstanding moral citizens they purport to be. Sometimes they exist to legitimise and abet a political agenda or provide popular support for the atrocities of a war machine.
@CarlZha Japanese see themselves as the superior Asian race. Yet the reality is that genetically the Japanese are not that that different from the Chinese. 71% of their genes come from East Asian migrants who are closely related to Han people.

@Kanthan2030 The US would never let this happen. They’re happy to ‘pretend’ they want a 2 State Solution- but they’ll gladly put up with the status quo in order to keep the Palestinians down. Plus they won’t want any of the glory to go to China.
@BikerGary17@metpoliceuk@SadiqKhan I was in Central London yesterday. Walked around Soho and Covent Garden. No disruption whatsoever. And thousands of people - tourists and locals having a great time 🎄🥳. Some people just love to have a main about anything!
