Or are they now presumed dead? I imagine their chances are somewhat improved if not being held at a school, medical facility or refugee shelter.

Jareth Posted July 12 Share Posted July 12 Looking forward to some positive action on Israel soon, once the left choose a PM in France and when the new Labour attorney general reviews the UK's legal position. There is such a staggering disregard for life from Israel, they are taking the piss. International push back, of some substance is sorely needed.

The left won’t have a majority to do that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they'll be blocked but as the largest grouping in French governance they'll be vocal. This is different to having Macron's party in charge.

France will tell Israel that they are being naughty, Israel will shrug, say ok, and carry on as normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they can be condemned, and eventually that pressure builds. It can't build if everyone shrugs and says so what. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chindie Posted July 13 VT Supporter Share Posted July 13 Air strike on humanitarian area. Scum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisp65 Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Yes, apparently they’ve been designating civilian safe zones and then bombing them, again. This is where we see if Labour Friends Of Israel is a two way deal, or just foreign state interference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Duncan is right when it comes to the influence the 'friends of Israel' has and what that really is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted July 14 Moderator Share Posted July 14 It's like having a school shooter locked in a school with the kids hiding in different classrooms and deciding the best solution is an airstrike. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but, hear me out... What if you really wanted the land the school was on? And what if a lot of the people making the decision on bombing the school thought the occupants were subhuman scum? Then it's a no-brainer to bomb the school, right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
