Awful. Anyone committing crimes like this in response to other atrocities need removing from society.

I think we cross that bridge when we know for certain that Trump isn't going to do anything in response if Israel decide to blow the agreement up. First thing is to secure agreement from the Palestinians, get the withdrawal started and release all the hostages. Once that's done there should be immense pressure on reducing the remaining capabilities of Hamas and once we have that much of the justification for Israel continuing and remaining sympathy from the international community won't be there in my opinion. That's the moment for severe pressure on Israel and hopefully chiefly from America.

If we get full agreement from the Palestinian side and it's only Israel holding things up then it will be clear where the problem lies. He's famously unpredictable but I don't think Trump is going to stand for Israel messing things up and preventing his Nobel peace prize. Israel knows who has the power in their relationship.

I had a read some of the reactions to this deal. One positive is that many Gazans who spoke are blaming Hamas for the situation they find themselves in. Encouraging as waning sympathy for terrorists is going to make a deal that removes Hamas from power more likely.

What relevance is there in Hamas being involved in negotiations or not? The overriding priority is to end the genocide.

Is it calling for the UK to pursue joining military intervention in Gaza?

Then you can't really say if the agreement works for Gaza or not can you.

Eh? I read the article.

Which part doesn't work for Gaza? Ending the genocide, Israeli withdrawal, disarming the terrorists. That sounds great. I imagine the people of Gaza are desperate to end the genocide so will be welcoming this proposal to stop it.

In what sense? It is a real article yes

So it's not about ending the genocide then? It's about making Hamas feel good?

This seems like a good idea

Surely the goal of ending the genocide overrides all other considerations? Now there's a proposal on the table to definitively end the genocide. Everyone should be putting pressure on to get this accepted and for the genocide to end.

Why is there not unprecedented international pressure on Hamas to sign the peace deal and put an end to the genocide immediately? They have the power to end things now.

I sort of wish we had a nasty bastard in charge of the club above the manager who could make clear in no uncertain terms that our standards are not high enough and this is not acceptable. Say what you want about Birmingham's owners but they are already issuing votes of confidence in their manager and he's under pressure despite being above us in the table. We seem to be happy as a club to accept lower standards and mediocrity. Someone at the club hsould be going nuts and knocking heads together. What the fuck are these performances? You can't spend all that money and churn out rubbish like this! Totally unacceptable.

The killer is we've spent all this money and don't really look any different to how we did before the money was spent. If nothing else I'd expect a little entertainment.

Don't care about the defence because it's poor whoever we play. My midfield and attack if Stewart is fit would be Jander Charles Armstrong Scienza Fellows Stewart Robinson on the bench to bring on at half time. None of the others deserve a game.

Oh and Downs should not be on the bench. He's actually worse than BBD for me.

Fellows looked good and should have started. Armstrong good goal, Stewart lively for the short time he was, Scienza looked lively and McCarthy got us a point. Other than that it wasn't good enough and all the subs were shite. We offered almost nothing again second half. Very worrying.

Results can be down to luck but this performance has not been acceptable.

In the unlikely event that we win this now this still hasn't been good enough. I'm starting to have serious doubts about Still.

It's not really good enough is it.

Wtf are we doing? So frustrating.

If Fellows doesn't have a knock then that's bizarre. Our two big money signings don't even start ?

Can't argue with that. Like Duckhunter says, I can disagree with most things that Tony Blair did but I can respect the fact that he was carrying out what he believed in and he had a vision for the country that was clear.
