I already know the answer and the double standards are clear for all the world to see. The UK is also complicit in the war crimes being committed by Israel by saying they have the right to defend themselves but not condemning them for stopping food and water to innocent people. My thinking is that if Israel goes in with boots on the ground then others will join in because I think the injustice being done to the Palestinians has reached a tipping point. Selective outrage seems to be the in thing nowadays… I fully agree with you regarding the double standards in this middle east crisis. I absolutely deplore what the terrorists did and have made that perfectly clear throughout this thread but that doesn't give Israel the right to ignore all International law and commit war crimes at will. I'm disgusted by the actions of both the British & American Governments in pursuing such a one sided policy which will only prolong the problems in the long run. Yes, we are indeed seeing selective outrage at work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I thought you might end up blaming the UK eventually, I would have put my bottom dollar on that. 7 minutes ago, hackey lad said: Why are Palestinians beholden to Israel for water and electricity ?

You should of course, expect that when we turn a blind eye to one country breaking International Law and give them our full support whilst supplying arms to another country to fight against the very same thing happening in Ukraine. Our foreign policy is all over the place and has been for a long time. Yes, most definitely selective outrage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn’t make sense . HAMAS have weapons so I guess it's only fair to give the Israelis weapons too And the food and medicine is for the civilians But I'm sure Hamas will take what they want from it anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
