Not in the least bit surprised. Mentioned it before on this thread but in Northern Ireland it’s not unusual to see free Gaza posters and signage in catholic areas. I’m not talking about recently either, I’ve seen them as far back as I can remember.

Oh come on Fernando, it’s hardly breaking news is it. This has been a recurring story for a good while now. There was even footage released earlier in the year. It does go to show that Putin isn’t someone you can negotiate though. Although if you’re relying on this to come to that conclusion...

The European Court of Human Rights was also born out of reflection following WW2 and Winston Churchills legacy to boot. Specifically on Churchill and Dresden didn’t it come out in the publication of letters he wrote to his wife during the war that not only did he regret the bombing of Dresden...

Absolutely. And I think as a nation we recognise that. Purely anecdotal but even the people I’ve known who were old enough to remember WW2 firsthand have acknowledged that. This includes my paternal grandparents who remember watching the glow of Coventry burning from Rugby and still couldn’t...

It’s OK. You did it in WW2 I presume she’s talking about the Copenhagen raid when a mosquito taking part in the raid crashed into a school and some of the following planes accidentally mistook the crash site for the bomb site because of that accident. This was a tragic accident, not a...

And TBF to Qatar IIRC they’re one of the few Gulf states that has spoken out against the crisis in Yemen. I don’t think that they’ve been on speaking terms with Saudi Arabia for a while now. Other gulf states won’t be able to claim there can be no double standards while they either champion...

TBF we have zero influence over China. Israel on the other hand rely on the West.

Yes. Not sure why you’re finding this so difficult. Agree a return of the hostages in exchange for an end to bombing. If the hostages get returned, great. If they don’t, carry on as before. Israel really has nothing to lose. Are you seriously suggesting that Israeli shouldn’t try to save the...
