You accuse me of promoting my own agenda. We have seen on 9/11 and 7/7 what the terrorist element can do and have done. Are the young male Middle East boat immigrants to be trusted? Are we at risk of another atrocity? Isn't an agenda to wake the forum up to this likelihood/possibility a worthy cause? Haven't similar incidents in France supported my view?
The "what happened to you" remark I take as a compliment. This issue on which I am resolute, however, is the unregulated influx of potential terrorists.
With regard to Israel/Hamas, I suspect that Hamas knew it would end up shredded and that there would be a collateral price paid by the citizens for they care nothing.
Israel doesn't help itself in the political space - having elected a parliament where the Ultras have a major hand in government. They remind me of the Ayatollahs by both sharing a similar degree of intransigence toward each other.
The early/mid 1990s brought Israel and Palestine close to a deal but that stalled in 2001 when the hawkish Likud party took power in Israel and the built settlements in Palestinian territory. It will take a huge upheaval in Israeli politics to get negotiations restarted.
I'm rational, as usual.

I don't agree with all of your points Seph but on this one I will.
There will certainly be more people motivated and willing to carry out terror attacks in Europe and the UK on boats in the near future so long as the UK, the EU and the United States are complicit in Israeli war crimes.
It doesn't really matter from their perspective where you are on the scale between providing political cover or direct military assistance.
No I don't agree that what you are watching on television is pro-Hamas, unless you are watching channels significantly different from those on mine.
