Awol Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 Hopefully this is wrong, but an Egyptian analyst friend just messaged me and he thinks Hezbollah and Syria are shaping to attack Israel in the Golan Heights. Lebanon border skirmishes a distraction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would imagine with the pupils being so young it's a lot easier for the teachers to create a certain amount of harmony. 80.per cent, I think that's a reflection of how small the Birmingham Jewish community is.

Or do you think they might get involved in some circumstances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pongo Waring Posted October 19, 2023 Share Posted October 19, 2023 (edited) Okay just trying to catch up on whats happening with this story. Is this correct? Please correct me if I'm wrong: Israel apparently kicked Palestine people out of their houses decades ago. Hamas now control Gaza. Hamas randomly attacked and killed lots of innocent Americans/Europeans who was at a peace concert and parade their bodies around. Israel fight back and bomb Gaza. Few more back and forwards between the two. Israel now gearing up to take the terrorist organisation out of Israel and free Palestine from Hamas?

VILLAMARV Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 'all the evidence' is the least troubling bit of that tweet imho. Strawmanning through fallacy of relevance. It's easy to attack an oversimplified position. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither of the statements in that tweet are particularly an accurate reflection of the situation as it unfolded. The problem is he’s making a statement as seen through his own lens and not making an objective judgement based on the wider picture. Bullshit like that is part of the problem, whichever side is doing it. As Hen Mazzig is an Israeli Zionist, it’s hardly an impartial viewpoint. It’s an extremely slanted opinion and best ignored 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted October 20, 2023 Share Posted October 20, 2023 I was hoping the situation would defuse, but looks like it may be all out war which would be devastating for the region and no doubt fuel attacks elsewhere . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't what this war is about tho, Israel freeing palestine(Gaza) from the terrorists Hamas?... You don't just expect someone to do a sudden terrorist attack on someone's soil, killing Americans, Europeans and British citizens and all these country turning around "it's okay we will let you off this time" ?

That doesn't make it incorrect. Even people in this thread questioned for days some of the atrocities that some of the Hamas terrorists committed saying "we need proof, it needs to be checked" but were very quick to instantly show anger at "500 deaths caused by Israeli airstrike" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
