I don’t mind a heated rational debate. That’s what blogging is about.
Hamas as a deplorable terrorist organisation that deserves to be wiped out.
To take and keep hostages is disgusting. They should be returned immediately.
What Hamas did in their brutal actions is inexcusable. |Attacking and slaughtering, torturing and maiming. They are inhuman. IMO They are scum.
The Palestinians who support such actions are deplorable.
But I contend that Netanyahu with his extreme right-wing coalition are just as bad.
They have a right to fight and destroy Hamas.
They do not have a right to bomb civilians, hospitals and schools even if Hamas are hiding there!
They do not have a right to bomb civilians.
They do not have a right to starve people and deprive them of water.
They do not have a right to turn Gaza into one gigantic bomb site.
This is as bad as Putin in Ukraine.
Retaliation should be appropriate, justified and proportionate? I think not!
Anybody who defends the starving or deliberate murdering of women and children is, in my opinion, morally corrupt.
Anybody who tries to justify genocide of Palestinians because of the Holocaust, pogroms, antisemitism or past war crimes is despicable. Two wrongs never make a right. Disgusting things happened in the past; they do not justify equally disgusting things.
I’ve deliberately left the comments from our extreme right-wing ‘friend’ up on my site. You judge!
