Which one is more English?

[Gary Heard @gvheard]

@RupertLowe10 It is over 150km from any point on the continent to Great Yarmouth, compared to approx 32 Calais to Dover. If a small boat came across to Dover and tried to go up the coast it would be 200+km.
Anyway, it looks as though he's looking North East... towards Denmark

@Combat_learjet I would assume that if you can't see it you should stand well clear...

BREAKING: Aid convoys enter Gaza through the Rafah crossing from Egypt as Israel implements a 'tactical pause'

Now please tell me, how can Israel PAUSE a blockade it says it was never doing? 🤔

[Zachary Foster @_ZachFoster]

The difference between the starvation in Gaza & other starvations / famines over the past century, is that Israel could end the starvation policy right now. in an instant. it's the most calculated, engineered & deliberate policy to starve a population in modern history.

[Farrukh @implausibleblog]

Bob Geldof, "It enrages me to a point beyond comprehension when I see the images of starving Palestinians in Gaza"

Trevor Philips, "Israeli view is there is no famine caused by Israel, its been engineered by Hamas"

Bob Geldof, "The Israeli authorities are lying"

Trevor Philips, "They're lying you say?"

Bob Geldof, "They're lying. Netanyahu is a lying. the IDF are lying"

"They're dangling food in front of starving, exhausted mothers.. They're shooting Palestinians trying to get food from GHF"

"So far a thousand people have died of starvation"

"When you target infants and children, when their wounds are no longer capable of healing, when breast feeding mothers can not longer do this"

"This criminality must stop immediately"

"As an instrument of war, famine is a crime"

Trevor Philips, "The Israelis would say there are 700 trucks sitting inside Gaza waiting for the UN to collect them.. And say its the UN's incompetence"

Bob Geldof, "They're lying. It's propaganda"

"I know this stuff back to front. Band Aid deals with this sort of people all the time, they're lying"

"And if the news and social feeds weren't censored in Israel, I imagine the Israeli people would not permit what is being done in their name"

Trevor Philips, "Isn't it unfair to blame all Israelis for this?"

Bob Geldof, "No, they're at war, their government is at war in their name"

"October 7th was inhumane, disgusting, disgraceful, but we're way past that now. And if the Israeli people are aware of what is being done in their name"

"And you've had on Sky News Dr Maynard reporting where Palestinians have been targeted when queuing for food. They're bing used as target practice. One day targeted in their abdomens. The next day young men targeted in their testicles"

"Trevor please, anyone watching this, we're way beyond.. This Israeli government is stacked with extremists and Netanyahu has gone beyond anything he proposed as his war aim"

"I don't want to hear from Hamas, from Netaynahu, stop this by any means right now"

Trevor Philips, "The IDF would contest your description of what is happening"

Bob Geldof, "Of course they do, show me an army behaving like they do who doesn't"

Trevor Philips, "We can see demonstrations weekly by Israelis"

Bob Geldof, "Not enough"

Trevor Philips, "Isn't it unfair to say this is the Israelis as a whole?"

Bob Geldof, "No, stop it. Stop it Trevor"

"What's unfair is what's happening to these babies"

"What's unfair is that one hour from the hunger Israelis are sitting down to their dinners to watch their Netflix soap"

"If Israelis want to protest, get in your cars, stuff your car full of food and drive through the border"

"You guys (journalists), stop it (making excuses for Israelis), shame on you"

Trevor Philips, "An Israeli would say to you now, even before Oct 7th, they would say they were people under constant attack, they do have reason to be fearful, don't they"

Bob Geldof, "They do indeed, I entirely support the state of Israel"

"This is about Israel using infants as instruments of war"

"Trevor, there are very few people watching this program, have held, or seen, or heard, babies dying of hunger - just stop (making excuses for Israels actions), just stop"

Can you explain what you are trying to get at here? Are you saying appeasement works? That sometimes surrendering and dying as a result of that would be a good thing?
I repeat
If Ukraine surrendered tomorrow how many Ukrainians would die between 2025 and 2030?

[Ragnorakishere @ragnorakishere]

@Spartacustardy @RickyHale_ @gvheard You have no conception of the Russo-Ukrainian war or any other war Carla. But you can get that by going to the front line.

[Gary Heard @gvheard]

Couldn't agree more, ALWAYS two sides. But...
Can you remember the idea that Russia might want to join NATO? It was floated, by Yeltsin in 1994...

[Karen Burns @KarenBu71292561]

@TomPMarshall @RickyHale_ @gvheard Also many promises were made by NATO countries, to NOT keep moving their military further east.
Yet those promises seemingly meant nothing either.
If you want to engage in whataboutery, be prepared for it back.
Because there's ALWAYS two sides to EVERYTHING.

Keir Starmer says Zelensky and Ukraine has the FULL backing of the United Kingdom.

Does @Keir_Starmer speak for you?

Retweet after taking part in this poll.

[Gary Heard @gvheard]

@CraigHa9 @RickyHale_ I couldn't agree more. End the killing 100% but how, without rewarding aggression?

[Gary Heard @gvheard]

Well, today, for the first time, I got blocked. Annoyingly I was blocked by someone I regularly agree with, but who obviously didn't like my analogies, simple or otherwise 😂
Moral of the story is "You shouldn't revert to name calling if you don't have an answer"

[Gary Heard @gvheard]

@RickyHale_ That's NOT an answer, just another deflection. if you are into analogies, give me a complex scenario, I'm sure my simple mind will cope.
So let me ask you a simple question, if Ukraine surrendered tomorrow, how many Ukrainians would die between then and 2030?

[Gary Heard @gvheard]

@RickyHale_ "ignore you if you support genocide in Gaza". Whoa, slow down there.
Conflating two hugely different issues just muddies the water and stops everyone from seeing the truth.
What's happening in Gaza is an appalling, Israel should withdraw now. I want peace everywhere.
