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

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.
