The Biden's Israel bashing thread
I thought this 25 minute clip on Gaza/Isreal with Piers Morgan was interesting:

Casted_Runes said:The Labour Party have long been a centrist-at-best party of bootlickers. With their own vile history of antisemitism.
I can't disagree with your first sentence, but the second is open to question. The UK's Labour Party has long been a champion of the State of Israel, so much so, in fact, that even if a party member is Jewish [see link] the party will expel/suspend/censure them for any left-wing criticism of that State. My point was merely that at the present moment it's necessary to be the 'right kind of Jew' in the Labour Party.

Casted_Runes said:I’ve heard recently that Israel faces an existential threat. That’s a laugh. Unlike the existential threat faced by Palestine since 1948, and whose civilians are suffering and dying at a much higher rate due to a UK/US-funded apartheid state’s military? When Dylan Roof was pictured with a Rhodesia badge after shooting up a Black church in the US, did we pause to reflect on the existential threat he faced as a white Christian? But apply the same mentality to a state, which can do a million times the damage, and suddenly it’s unfair to criticise. Israel does not equal “Jews” anymore than Britain equals a particular race. It is not racist to question a state.
I think as the world has become more polarised, or 'marmite-atized' logic means nothing. truth is but a deformed child chained to a rafter in the atiic. everyone knows its up there, it'll get fed by one side or the other, but neither side will set it free just in case
Anyhow, looks like the Biden backed genocidal apartheid regime is going after the Lebanese children next.
Administation has no problem pushing Congress aside for the cause

That’s a fair assessment.

Since we now live in a 'post-truth' society ( 'post-truth' was the Oxford Dictionary's Word of the Year in 2016), coinciding with Trump becoming President. I guess we can only expect more and more polarised fragmentation.
Regarding the Guardian article, it makes one wonder who controls America.

The devastation in Gaza
AS The MURDERING BASTARDS – er – THE BIDEN/HARRIS DEMOCRAT PARTY CONTINUES TO PROVIDE 'IRONCLAD' SUPPORT TO ISRAEL TO BLOW THE FUCK OUT OF GAZA, THESE ARE THE LATEST DEATH FIGURES/INJURIES FROM THE REGION:
The latest death toll stands at 43,257 Palestinians and 1,139 people killed in Israel since October 7, 2023.
Gaza’s Ministry of Health says more than 42,500 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks and thousands more are buried under rubble and threatened by illness.
Here are the latest casualty figures as of 5:00pm in Gaza (14:00 GMT) on October 18:
Gaza
Killed: at least 42,500 people, including nearly 16,765 children
Injured: more than 99,546 people
Missing: more than 10,000
The latest figures from the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the occupied West Bank are as follows:
Occupied West Bank
Killed: at least 757 people, including at least 165 children
Injured: more than 6,250 people
In Israel, officials revised the death toll from the October 7 attacks down from 1,405 to 1,139.
Israel
Killed: 1,139 people
Injured: at least 8,730
Devastation across Gaza
According to the latest data from the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, the World Health Organization and the Palestinian government as of October 13, Israeli attacks have damaged:
More than half of Gaza’s homes (damaged or destroyed)
80 percent of commercial facilities
87 percent of school buildings
Healthcare facilities so 17 of 36 hospitals are partially functional
68 percent of road networks
68 percent of cropland
Nowhere safe to go
The Israeli army published an online map of the Gaza Strip on December 1, dividing the enclave into more than 600 numbered blocks.
It asked Gaza’s civilians to identify the block corresponding with their area of residence and evacuate when ordered.
However, leaflets ordering evacuations have been inconsistent with online warnings, which has confused residents.
Furthermore, many Gaza residents have no reliable way to access the map because they have little access to electricity or the internet since the blockade of the 365sq-km (141sq-mile) Strip has resulted in a collapse of telecommunications infrastructure.
Every hour in Gaza:
15 people are killed. Six are children.
35 people are injured.
42 bombs are dropped*.
12 buildings are destroyed.
*Based on the first six days of the war, according to the Israeli army
Journalists killed
As of July 31, more than 125 journalists, mostly Palestinians, have been killed since the Israel-Gaza war began on October 7. According to the Committee to Protect Journalists and the International Federation of Journalists, at least 120 Palestinian, three Lebanese and two Israeli journalists have been killed.
