I posted that on the day of the atrocities by Hamas, it was an emotional response after watching the initial videos being circulated and the reports coming in, but I don’t shy away from those comments. Hamas is an evil death cult that should be wiped from the Earth, it manages to survive by wrapping itself with the population of Gaza
It’s war, it’s survival, will innocents die? Yes, because it’s war, because it’s survival.
Do I want that? No. But it’s not about what us here nice and relatively safe in the U.K. want, is it? |
I appreciate this recognition and providing further context. I do take back my comment in that case.
It isn’t about what we want, of course, but in both sides of a war there’s emotionally involved people that need direction and support to do the right thing from outsiders. It does indeed appear that America are trying to take on this role but Israel are backing that Biden fears the pro-Israel lobby at home. Blinken’s impotence at the start of this is indicative.
However he is asking that Israel take civilians into account; an odd request if he confidently believes they are.

Another vague response that really answers nothing and does not support your statement (and also, read it again, I dont think it even makes sense).

If more people oppose flying a flag in solidarity than flying it; I think it’s reasonable to say that there’s little sympathy. Or at least less than more - I was merely providing Ms NTL assurance in that regard.
Other people can take a different view but it’s exactly the type of virtue signalling cost nothing action that should easily have the support of a majority if they believe their cause to be just.
