...there was an alliance of the willing prepared to throw him out.

When Israeli slowly eats away, like a cancer, at the Palestinian land on the West Bank, those same defenders of liberty sit on their hands.

Funny old world, isn't it?

no oil in Gaza, just people

Sadam Hussein started the Kuwait war,the Palestinian terrorists started this war.Are you seriously suggesting we put boots on the ground to defend the Israelis from Palestinian aggression?

Surely the other way around, ynna.

Err,no,naomi.We put boots on the ground to defend the Kuwaitis from Sadams aggression.I was assuming sandy was suggesting we do the same for the Israelis against Palestinian aggression?

Yanna is being deliberately obtuse.  I'm sure he knows well what I mean.

Sorry, Yanna.

Do you accept Iraq was the aggressor in that conflict?

 

If you do, then you must surely accept Hamas was the aggressor in the current conflict.

 

Kuwait couldn't defend itself, so needed help, whereas Israel can defend itself so doesn't need help.

 

Or am I missing something?

When "Palestine" continually attacks Israel, slowly eating away at the people, like a cancer, those same defenders of liberty sit on their hands.

Funny old world, isn't it ?

Shhh, OG - that's a 'wrong' answer.

Where is this place called palestine,i can not find it in my atlas.

This post isn't going Sandys way is it.

I think I'd get more acceptance for my views on Palestine if they were published in the Jewish Chronicle rather than here in AB. I'm content to be right and almost alone in my views instead of being wrong in a crowd.

> those same defenders of liberty sit on their hands

They don't exactly sit on their hands ... they just work in glacial time.

The UN's top court has said Israel's occupation of Palestinian territories is against international law, in a landmark opinion.

The International Court of Justice (ICJ) said Israel should stop settlement activity in the occupied West Bank and East Jerusalem and end its "illegal" occupation of those areas and the Gaza Strip as soon as possible.

We weren't defending liberty in 1990, we were defending our access to very cheap oil. 
Posts questioning Israel usually elicit accusations of anti semitism by now.

David Lammy, our current foreign secretary, voted to invade Iraq.  Perhaps he has had time to reflect on the consequences of this.

The Gulf war and the invasion of Iraq are two entirely different incidents?

hi sandy

you have referenced Kuwait and irag

and Israel and Palestine ( altho I  have to say: altho such a country doesnt exist or else one or other mod will delete me)

but there is a third in this funny old world - - Russia and Ukraine, and Trump sitting on his futtock....

The old world is funnier than you thought.

I think you decide each on the facts ( and erm the interests of the host country) - Vance ( trump) has said there are no american interests in Europe - the danger ( to the US of  A) is China

 

@10.40.We dont need to call out all the anti-semites on this site gromit.We all know who you are now.

YNNAFYMMI, you do know there is a difference being anti-Semitic and being opposed to the actions of Israel, don't you?
