No just you keep on 'giving it large' me old china plate, start by backing up that offer you made to DrRingDing, empty your pockets you bleeding heart liberal. :thumbs:
Unfortunately my pockets are empty to start with. I have been unemployed for a couple of years but if DrRingDing really wants to go and fight the cause & be a "Daring a successful" raider then I would do what I could to enable this.
 
I hear on the news that Obama has agreed to furnish the Israelis with more ammunition and equipment for the Iron Dome security system.

To me that means that he and his fellow Americans can not take part in any peace process or negotiations. They are biased and should not be allowed to be involved.
 
I'm not a connoisseur of 'terror porn' but I've seen far more graphic depictions of war and terror on the net, even in the last few days.

There's a procedure for complaints here afaik. Contact admin or a moderator if that video offends your sensibilities.
It was not the video but the quote that went with it.

Daring and successful raid by Palestinians to kill Israeli soldiers and to inject fear into others.
 
Well I've grown up from my earlier swappie days and I try not to think about it as sides. Cause that often leads some sections of the left siding with reactionary organisations that engage in highly questionable actions and hold highly questionable beliefs. Backing the islamists against Russia springs to mind.

People who do not have a voice are easily misunderstood by people who do have a voice.

Seems like pretty much a statement of fact; the raid was 'daring' (bods come out of tunnel in enemy territory to attack a formidable enemy - the IDF), The raid was "successful" (in military terms, how else might it be described?) and the purpose of the raid appears to have been to "kill Israeli Soldiers" and "inject fear into others."

It's an interpretation, you don't have to agree with it.

It came across to me as glorification of death. That is what I took exception to.

There does seem to be little appetite for forming Brigadas Internacionales to help out the Gazans. 2k is taking the piss though. A flight to Cairo can't be more than five hundred quid and a bus to Arish is maybe a tenner. Then all he needs to do is grab a bucket of KFC and jump in a terror tunnel to Gaza.
 
Any death be it civilian, child, women or a soldier is a human life & should hold some value. There is no justifiable murder.
Actually there is. The IDF deaths are perfectly justifiable in the context of self defense. The gazans are being bombed into the dark ages. What else can they do. I don't agree with hamas launching bombs into civilian areas however ineffective they are. But killing the IDF is fine by me.

Okay I would agree killing someone who is trying to kill you is justifiable. Self defence is justifiable. Killing someone who is conscripted into an army who is not trying to kill you is not.
 
You don't have to serve in the fucking army. You can get out, like one of my friends did. They're all just waiting for their nice little payout when their terms are up so they can 'large it' in Goa and Thailand.

These fuckwits are guilty of murder on a massive scale and as such are justifiable targets. That was a daring attack, far more so than, let's say, dropping bombs on schools and hospitals from distance.

So lets all celebrate their deaths that are going to lead to what? More deaths? Killing anyone is not going to help towards a solution. Killing does not seem to be a way towards any kind of peace.

This is just hand wringing nonsense. Conscripted or not they are part of an army that's flattening gaza. I'll concede there are different components to an army and there's a difference between a scared soldier that's part of a foot patrol in a hostile area and someone launching a 200lb bomb from a safe distance but they are ALL engaging in an offensive that's killing many innocent people. It's kill or be killed that's the stark choice they are facing.

We all have a moral scale when it comes to death and some people are, simply put, wanky oxygen thieves. Placing idf soldiers in the same paragraph as a a young child killed by a 200lb bomb is staggeringly naive
 
Fucks sake. It's a bit unfortunate really that this fuckwit has been kidnapped. Will further solidify Netanhyu's position.

And. Fuck Obama. He's remained silent on the slaughter of dozens of sleeping kids but felt the need to condemn this kidnapping. What a truly fucked up situation.

Nobody has been kidnapped thats Fox news language, an Israeli soldier has possibly been captured as a POW.
