Israel

Nice sentiment but when everyone is chipped from birth and gets their sustenance from a state controlled vending machine ( based on credits) it will be difficult not to toe the line.

China and North Korea have the model. USA and Europe models are dead ducks on a dying planet.

Err no,  (for now).

Bollòcks, actually, Rae.

Indeed Steve,  but I'm rather reserved in my comments as you know😇😇

Probably a good think that our generation will never know but you are still wrong.

You've got religion off to a tee there. A load of 'dangle berries' that can never be proved or disproved because we'll be dead. Like I said, load of shite.

And not necessary! Live your life to help yourself first then taper down to help everyone you possibly can, if everyone done that there would be heaven on earth. It's just too simple to possibly work 🙁

[Rangie]

Most " normal" folk know the difference between good & bad it's as simple as that, but hey that's far too easy for the human race.

Meanwhile, it is being noticed in quite a few media outlets that the BBC is still refusing to refer to Hamas as a terrorist organisation, just like it refused to call the IRA terrorists.
It really is a disgraceful excuse for a serious broadcaster.

I suspect that's 'dangle berries'.  Especially seeing as every BBC bulletin I've heard has frequently stressed that most of the Western World categorises Hamas as a terrorist organisation.

As much as I dislike the tax grabbing, leftie BBC, I do have to stick up for them in this case.

They may well say that others categorise Hamas as terrorists, but they themselves dont refer to Hamas as a terrorist organisation, despite what they have done in the last few days.

You can't have it both ways.  You say you want it unbiased, but then want it biased when it suits you

And why the hell am I sticking up for the BBC

Only the BBC would consider it appropriate to send a pair of presumably Muslim reporters into Israel this week and then write an article complaining about them being victims.

But they arent unbiased. They have a natural left wing bias, which means they must support Palestinians over Israel. They cant have Israel being the victims no mater what.
I sat in the car for a couple of hours today and decided to give Radio 4 a listen for a laugh. The whole programme was about the current situation, and was given from the Palestinian perspective from start to finish. No attempt at balance whatsoever.
Bottom line is, this whole thing is about Extremist, fundamentalist Islam V the civilised world
The liberal left will wake up to that when its far too late, and they have become the targets.

Just thinking for all these warmongers/unhappy terrorists ect, why don't  they saturate bomb them with happy drugs? Cannabis infused perhaps? It would save many lives and be be far cheaper.

I believe that using biological and chemical weapons in warfare is against the Geneva Convention Rae. 

[Raeturbo]

Yes I see your point... far more dangerous than cluster munitions 👍
