@owenjonesjourno@danielsusskind Ah so now we get to the rub of it. You don't think Israel should exist. And what do you propose we do with the Israeli population now? Eighty years later?
@tweetmaster153@metpoliceuk@DPJHodges The Gazan war isn't about "settlements" or "occupation" or "land." On the part of the Arabs it's an Islamic holy war. Everything else is just mis-direction, distraction and subterfuge.
@tweetmaster153@metpoliceuk@DPJHodges You've "moved on." You mean you've come up with a nice santised Western version so you don't have any nasty guilt twinges as you call for genocide in London's streets. Has anybody told the "Palestinians" of this new version? Pretty sure they're still using the old version...
@metpoliceuk@DPJHodges You don't think the openly genocidal chant "free Palestine" meets those conditions? I think you guys need some serious training in Islam and extremism because you absolutely reek of ignorance. Free Palestine is a call to rid "Palestine" (by which they mean Israel) of Jews.
@owenjonesjourno But they didn't own the land? At the time 12% was owned by Jews. Another 12% by Arabs and the rest was the possession of the Ottoman empire. When it fell it became the British Mandate. Where in any of this is the state of Palestine? Your vision of history is simplistic and false.
@owenjonesjourno Which people are "Palestinians" exactly? Where is their shared culture, language, royalty, statehood, flag ect?...... As I understand it the people who would become the "Palestinians" are Arabs with descent from various regions most of them from what is now Syria, Egypt,Jordan..
@owenjonesjourno Pretty damn hypothetical, Muslims accusing other people of colonialism as though they didn't conquer most of a whole fucking continent.....
@dlores8@Unicornkitkat97@AndiMcLellan She's not here is she? And we don't always get what we want. If she wanted to be referred to as Mrs whiskers, the pussycat I wouldn't go along with that either.
@KhamisMalhosani You might have just slightly more credibility if you and your compatriots didn't spend every other weekend protesting for a Palestine "free" of Jews.
@Himherhuh_5@patcondell You mean as opposed to "magic did it?" Tell me, sir, have you ever in your entire life seen anybody or anything do anything magical? Because that's what religion is. The claim that magic words said by a magic being is responsible for our existence.
@joe43932@AvalonJewish@ArchRose90 The freedom to genocidally chant for a "Palestine free of Jews" is not a real freedom. That's called hate. Frankly if the Met had any balls or brains, they'd have banned it long ago.
