There was a spokesman for one of the warring factions being interviewed earlier this morning about the faulty missile or airstrike (depending on your view!)which destroyed the Gaza hospital killing so many. He made the point as you'd expect that it was the other side who created the tragedy. He listed several other aspects to the war which demonstrated the atrocities the other side had already perpetrated and this was another example. Importantly, he said he had evidence that it was the other side who had done this and not us, guv. Asked to share the evidence with an international audience, he denied the request and lost his cool in doing so. His argument was twofold; firstly that his word should be good enough and secondly that opinions were already set in concrete and presenting the facts wouldn't change that. The inference being sod the evidence and the real facts, all that mattered was winning the argument in the court of public opinion. I'd like to think that in the fullness of time, the real facts can be established but I really doubt that will happen. How often do we see that kind of thing?bantamdave41, Rogered Tart and Faithful Bantam like this. -

The sad thing about all this is that you can believe both sides would bomb the hospital for their own agenda.
What a desperately inhumane situation we see unfolding in front of our eyes.Stop hovering to collapse... Click to collapse... Hover to expand... Click to expand...NorthernMonkey, Bronco and Rogered Tart like this. -

The T&A have said absolutely nothing in their paper about this, however there is a story about how a shipley dad is upset that his breed of dog his being banned and how someone is selling a pokemon card.Bronco, NorthernMonkey and Rogered Tart like this. -

I see the T&A have pushed the narrative for yesterdays mindless vandalism as,
"It is understood the attacks were part of a pro-Palestine protest."
It's not a pro Palestine protest, it's an ill informed anti-semitic attack. Lets call it out for what it is. Would anyone ever be called a pro unionist protest for smashing up an Irish pub?Faithful Bantam, bantamlad92 and Tony Wilkinson like this. -

These planks are so ill informed, which is what you would expect to be fair.
There is also another video of these trans people supporting people in a free Palestine march and the march telling them their lifestyle is incompatable.
Keighley had them marching today with green smoke bombs etc.Tony Wilkinson, Rogered Tart and Faithful Bantam like this. -

If Hamas told me today was Tuesday I would ask for a second opinion.
There is no doubt however that innocent people and civilians are being killed but as long as Hamas exist history will keep repeating itself. You can not appease a terrorist organisation, Afghanistan showed that by not destroying the Taliban they just come back.
It might have some short term pain but Hamas need destroying entirely otherwise the long term pain will be far far worse.Bumblebee_Tuna, Idlebantam and Tony Wilkinson like this. -

The deaths of innocent people on either side is horrendous and should be condemned by all. The images are appalling coming from Gaza , as they were from Israel.
@Park bantam I'm totally with your thinking and the international community should do more. We should not see the slaughter of innocent people.Skyebantam, Bronco and Park bantam like this. -
