Well good news with the Israel , Lebanon ceasefire let's hope it holds and slippery fish benjamin netanyahu keeps his word .

You have got to admire Israeli intelligence services first they targeted hezbollahs pagers and then their walki talkies and generally wiped out their leadership, bet the Iranian top blokes all double checked their phones ect.

I'll believe the cease fire when I see it, trouble with cease fires is that it gives terrorists time to rearm.

It will also give Nutty-yu-hu time to rearm and consolidate his plans.

Unfortunately the jews think they are God’s chosen people and can take all the land they want,
and they keep pushing the Palestinians out inspite of any treaty, they will never be satisfied until
they have all of Gaza and Lebanon, when they’ve done that who’s next ?........

Israel is an interesting problem. So much history and decent people are on both sides of the argument with the subject causing major disagreements.

It needs some grown up thinking and compromises to solve. We are still a long way away from a resolution but until and adult is in charge it won't change.

[bigpaul]

there is no such place as Palestine and Gaza isnt a state, they were offered a 2 state solution but refused it because all the Gazan's want is Israel wiped off the face of the earth and all Jews with it, and who attacked on October the 7th NOT the Israelis.

[Pete Grey]

Please read Wikipedia....Palestine (region)....State of Palestine....Mandatory Palestine....1948 Palestine war.

It’s a can of worms for which Britain has a lot of responsibility.

However for decades armed Israeli “settlers” have been illegally taking over Palestinian settlements and imprisoning men women and children, as late as July/August 2023, this is conveniently “forgotten”.

But this does not justify the brutality of the October 2023 Hamas attack on Israel, that was butchery on civilians not war.

As usual in any war it is the civilian population not the combatants that suffer the casualties, but should Israel flatten Gaza as this seems to be their aim, the complete destruction of Gaza and driving out its people.

[bigpaul]

I always said the Israelis should flatten Gaza so nobody could ever live there again.

[Pete Grey]

Yes SD so much history and decent people on both sides.

However Britain bears a lot of responsibility for the mess.

But I hope Starmer the scammer does not get us
involved, God forbid.
