Why is there so much moral cowardice from political leaders regarding the outrageous attacks in Lebanon?
Indiscriminate attacks that have killed children and many innocent people who have nothing to do with Hezbollah.
Where is the outrage and condemnation @DavidLammy ?
It's not 'sophisticated and targeted' if you blow up pagers without knowing who's holding them, or where they are. No one in the West would be calling it 'self-defence' if Hamas set off explosives in the middle of Tel Aviv.
I genuinely thought I couldn't be shocked by anything Israel does but detonating thousands of bombs indiscriminately in a country, maiming thousands, is genuinely nihilistic terrorism in a manner and on a scale we have never seen
BBC on the slaughter in Lebanon: “the sort of spectacular coup you would read about in a thriller.”
Appalling language from British state media, romanticising an act of horrific state terrorism.

Today, phones, walkie talkies, solar panels, intercoms and radios exploded across Lebanon, killing at least 9 Lebanese and injuring some 300 more. We know not what we are witnessing. To justify these indiscriminate attacks is to justify terrorism.
Israel detonating thousands of bombs in Lebanon knowing that this will harm and kill children, civilians, medics and passersby going about their daily lives in markets and on the street is in fact an act of terrorism.
Mobile devices as explosives, detonated in supermarkets, homes, as people drive, is so horrifyingly dystopian. And yet ardent haters of Arabs and Muslims continue to blindly support anything Israel does, without even stopping to think one day these tactics will be used on them.
This campaign has not received any donations. Ibrahim has three daughters whom he is trying to save from death, and he is living in very harsh conditions. Please donate and share the campaign. https://t.co/47PKcUt7k2
I cannot get over the fact that now multiple reports have confirmed that Israeli forces are systematically using rape as a method of torture and there is zero outrage from Western media.
@jamesrbuk I'm flattered you'd even ask the question. If any voter is persuaded to vote an alien with a bin for a face over a Labour government, I'd argue Labour needs to try harder. The red rose doesn't have an automatic right to every non-Tory vote. (But humans do have a right to Ceefax.)
