Israel, Palestine, and everything related

So in the last three days Hamas has:
  • Taken responsibility for the kidnap and murder of the three Israeli youths.
  • Executed a number of people they suspected as 'Israeli informers' in public when people were leaving a mosque for prayers.
  • Killed their first Israeli child with their oh-so-unthreatening rockets.
Well done Israel for sticking through it, looks like public sentiment is swinging back around.

I think the swinging of public sentiment as mostly due to witnessing the ISIS/IS atrocities.

Islamic extremism is the germ on this earth and people are waking up to realise that there is no real difference between IS/boko haram/Hamas etc.

People are starting to see that whilst we all condemn what IS (and Hamas to a large extent) are doing, it is Israel that is actually dealing with this on a day to day basis on their doorstep.

No other civilised western society would be acting any differently. I think most see ourselves in them.

In the fight against barbaric religious extremism, Israel like the USA, uk and allies are all on the same side.
 
Leviticus says that you can't eat pig, because although it is cloven-footed it does not chew the cud. Camel is out because although it chews the cud it is not cloven-footed. And the rock badger for the same reasons. I have no idea what a rock badger is.

Christians seem to overlook these rules, apart from a token gesture on Easter Friday. And have shifted the Sabbath day to Sunday. Did Jesus say it was ok to eat piggies?

Yes.

Killing people and settling on their land is more an 18/19th century thing IMO.

Since the Romans (1st century AD) destroyed the second Jewish state until the third Jewish state, the area of has been in the control of different empires and immigrations of people has come from all of the world. No Nation was established in the area and the people differed in cultural and religious backgrounds.

Jews have a connection with land from 4000 years, but most of the Arabs have less than 200 years.

My family has a connection to some nice land in England. Might go shoot up the locals, bulldoze a couple acres and move in.

To answer the original question of the thread:
The MSM doesn't report with any balance because the MSM is largely controlled by Jews.
It's easy to spread your propaganda when you control the spread of information.
Watch the news and you will hear a 5 minute story on 2 Israelis that have been killed and then they will just casually mention 'and 500 Palestinians died'.

Hamas are called the terrorist organisation, but ask yourself if you were being oppressed, wouldn't you fight back?

You missed the point completely. You're talking about the balance of views in the msm when you don't even watch the news so you are not qualified to make such statements.

Idiot.

Except Islamic extremism comes from Saudi Arabia and most of the fighters in IS do too.

Israel, America and the UK actually support the birthplace/home of Islamic extremism. They don't even seem to care when Saudi's and Wahhabi's kill innocent Brits, Americas or Australians as long as their inbred oil family is looked after.

Hamas and Hezbollah have nothing in common with IS btw. Hezbollah have been actively trying to kill the s**t out of them, as have Iran and Syrian governments. THAT's who needs our support, but no, let's bomb the s**t out of them and create a vacuum for the Saudi Death Cult to establish a caliphate.

Lol.

I wish what I smoked gave me these types of hallucinations.

Would love to hear more about your conspiracies.

Can you deny/confirm that the moon is made from cheese? Tell us the truth!
