Wtf?!?? Did you like Eldorado?

That deserves a laughing emoji for the right reasons.

True colours.

Yeah, it's that simple 🤦 Hostages, Palestinian state/freedoms, Israeli security, release of Palestinian "prisoners", etc need to be addressed. Not just hostaged. Come on Hypo, you need to look at all sides. Practice what you preach.

Meanwhile, in other news, Israel say that they'll deepen the war, whilst killing whoever gets in their way, until they get their way. https://aje.io/5cerl2?update=2885592 In more other news, a former Israeli diplomat has stated what's always been obvious, namely that Israel won't end the war. https://aje.io/5cerl2?update=2885585 In more other news, Hamas understandably want the release of the thousands of people held by Israel without charge. There's more to this than the hostages.

Nerve touched clearly in a post littered with irony, and your true colours highlighted. So you can respond however you like, but I can't. Fuck off. "Are you really incapable of differentiating between the content of a post and the attitude of the person posting it?". Unless you're trolling or playing to the audience, the posts reflect on the poster. You've formed a view of SoG, and me, and guess what poppet, I've formed one of you. It's cuts all ways Hypo, not just the way you want it to.

Effect

An outline of the 3 phases here. I'd be surprised if Israel agree to that. Phase 1 at a push, but that'll depend on the hostage release, and the Hamas expectations re prisoner release. https://aje.io/qzz5uf?update=2883303

You're not able to claim any moral high ground Duck. You're not islamaphobic. SoG isn't anti semitic. You have different views. There is nothing wrong in posting anti Israeli stuff in a thread about Israel and it's behaviour. It's on topic and relevant. The fact that it appears to conflict with your opinion doesn't make it wrong. What's wrong is your perception. Your use of laughing emojis about something that's not funny isn't clumsy. You don't deserve to be let off that lightly. It's deliberate and daft, you know that.

Hamas killed Israeli soldiers, in an apparent war between Hamas and Israel. They'll pick the easy targets. Anyway, you've not criticised Israel today, isn't that hypocritical on your assessment?

Bizarre. How many threads do you post on and debate for both sides of a discussion?! Nobody does. Don't be daft.

Bless. I was talking about the thread and his post. You were just joining in the little SoG slog. Bless.

Bizarre road to go down. Today started with a perfectly reasonable thread from SoG with no criticism of anyone on this thread. LD and Hypo then piped up like daft kids, a Mod then had a pop, then you, etc. The bloke has his moments, but feck me, the nonsense ain't from him today.

Here's a thought, maybe start a SoG thread?

I'm not getting into other subjects, or a general SoG debate. This is an Israel thread which I started to address the behaviour of the Israeli government. SoG's views about that are generally sound imo. Other people's, and their behaviour in this thread, less so.
