Joan Rivers And Gaza

Discussion in 'Lounge' started by bradders, Aug 8, 2014.

  1. I think his point was "it does seem like the conflict gets a disproportionate amount of coverage when there are worse situations out there."
     
  2. If a country said they would wish to see us cease to exist I would be a bit trigger happy for sure!

  5. Pete - if some scruffy little "ASBO" twat lived next door to you, and announced to the world that he would not be happy until you and all your family were dead and he had pulled your house down and built a shanty town where it now stands, and if he then threw rocks into your garden every day - even after he had agreed not to... How long would it take before YOU got annoyed ?

  6. As you would..........

    Lucky I didn't say Google 'Armageddon'.......

  7. No its not acceptable if you have other means of resolving. Taking out the rockets? Easy for isreal. Sending in ground troops? Easy when you have an army that size. Or how about trying to negotiate rather than take hard line stance.
     
  8. 99% of Gaza people want peace despite having most of their country stolen from them.

  9. So who do they vote for then ?

  10. If you were Israel, you would murder the scruffy little 'ASBO' twat, AND his entire family. Then you would flatten the entire neighbourhood, killing countless other innocent people who had nothing to do with the scruffy little 'ASBO' twat.
     
  11. Democrats I think, or was it Republicans ?
     
  12. Maybe the Israeli's are saying recent history will never be repeated.

    The World is just a messed up place run by physocpaths

  13. :p I changed it because you might post thread closed, my mortars are on there way so look out.
     
  14. And this is the nub of the problem. I wouldn't like to have either of them as neighbours.

    From the much lamented Warren Zevon from 1982
     
  15. If I had stolen someone's home from him by force and fraud, but instead of quietly going away he kept fighting for it back and throwing rocks - yes, I would be very annoyed all the time. That fact would not put me in the right though.

  16. Roll the clock back to 1947, Israel did not exist then, the land now called Israel was takenby force / terror whatever.

    If somebody took your land you would want it back, if somebody was oppressing you for generations you would fight back.

    Maybe if political expediency had not been exercised in 1948 things would be a lot different now

  17. Depends what you mean by "justifiable". If you were an Israeli trying to hang on at all costs to the land conquered by the previous generation, any and all expedient actions might seem to be "justifiable". If you were an external neutral observer, who despises both parties equally, nothing done by the Israelis could be objectively "justifiable".
