Rishi Sunak said:the UK government judges that the explosion [at Gaza's Al-Ahli hospital] was likely caused by a missile or part of one that was launched from within Gaza towards Israel
It's a shame you feel like that, mate, because you're usually a good posterThere are plenty of posters who consider Israel on par with Hamas and therefore a rogue terrorist state and clearly more sympathetic with Palestine
Also comments like “usually a good poster” and “mate” are highly condescending

Rishi Sunak says the UK has judged that the blast at Gaza's Al-Ahli hospital was likely caused by "a missile, or part of one" fired from "within Gaza".
The PM said the conclusion was based on the "deep knowledge and analysis of our intelligence and weapons experts".
Media outlets, including the BBC, reported an initial Hamas statement blaming Israel for Tuesday's explosion.
Israel denied this shortly afterwards, saying that it was caused by a misfiring rocket from within Gaza.
Mr Sunak told the House of Commons: "On the basis of the deep knowledge and analysis of our intelligence and weapons experts, the British government judges that the explosion was likely caused by a missile, or part of one, that was launched from within Gaza towards Israel."
Mr Sunak said that "misreporting" of the blast had had a "negative effect in the region".
"We need to learn the lessons and ensure that in future there is no rush to judgement," he said.

Interesting perspective. Does highlight Netanyahu's political "dilemma" where his govt is reliant on the support of several ultra-nationalist/right wing parties. This reliance does make it seem rational, constructive peace talks (other than from a position of Israeli dominance) are highly unlikely.Interesting thread from an Arab perspective on the politics of it all.

Just heard on the radio that Hamas has offered to return all the hostages if Israel agrees to stop the bombing. Israel has vowed to keep on bombing. You would have thought that securing the return of the hostages would have been Israel’s number one priority.

Is this the interview on Sky when in the same interview it was claimed Hamas did not intend to kill anyone when they invaded and any death was unintentional as Hamas don’t intend to kill anyone?
Don’t know the origins of the comment. As I said in my original post, I heard it on the radio. You would think it’s worth a go though if your number one priority was the return of your people currently being held hostage.Is this the interview on Sky when in the same interview it was claimed Hamas did not intend to kill anyone when they invaded and any death was unintentional as Hamas don’t intend to kill anyone?

I don’t think there’s many people who believe that.Is it Netanyahu's number one priority?
Exactly so freeing the hostages on Hamas's terms isn't of interest to Netanyahu (other Israelis may feel differently). Might not even be possible without the support of his hardline coalition partners - which he is unlikely atm to getI don’t think there’s many people who believe that.
And this is the tragedy of it all.Estimated 1.4 million homeless in Gaza now & over 5000 dead.....the vast majority of which are innocent civilians....
....Its a good job Israel have world class intelligence & military capabilities so they can continue to hit their targets with pin-point precision eh....
the deaths of innocent people is sadly a great recruiting tool for hamas.And this is the tragedy of it all.
These 1.4 million homeless aren't all Hamas are they.
Hamas are utter scum for the atrocity they carried out and now Israeli forces are carrying out their own awful acts.
Not going to end well this is it. Just going to get a lot more Palestinians and others in the middle east, hating Israel even more and taking up to arms and terrorism.
If they do "wipe out Hamas" as they have suggested, all they are going to do is create a Hamas Mark II.
not just for Hamas but other fundamentalist groups throughout Middle East & Africathe deaths of innocent people is sadly a great recruiting tool for hamas.

Totally agreeAnd for other fundamentalists across the globe, including in our own country.
If our governments (rightly) decry Islamic fundamentalist terrorism but then stand by whilst Israel kills thousands of Muslims, including women and children, seemingly indiscriminately, then it's not a difficult sell to those who might already be on the cusp of radicalisation.
This makes the whole world a more dangerous place, imho.
And the rest of the world.not just for Hamas but other fundamentalist groups throughout Middle East & Africa
Or you’re a teenager or young man just being brought up with absolutely no hope whatsoever. It’s how the IRA were so successful in the troubles. No hope, no prospects, high unemployment rate. It was a breeding ground for extremism.It will be impossible to wipe out Hamas. Maybe the name but that will be it.
For the Palestinians who hate Hamas and want peace. Now your home has been destroyed, your business, you have lost your daughter/son/sister/brother/etc. Knowing that international law doesn't apply to Israel and nothing will be done about your loss. Someone comes to you an offers a chance of revenge?
But...nobody raised too much fuss about the Ugyhurs in China.And for other fundamentalists across the globe, including in our own country.

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 hostages? Do you have a blood lust or something?Even from someone who says that Hamas didn’t deliberately kill a single Israeli in the raid?
TBF we have zero influence over China. Israel on the other hand rely on the West.But...nobody raised too much fuss about the Ugyhurs in China.
There seems to be little will to find solutions to the issues in this world until blood is spilt And then only if affects the interests of certain countries. I do wonder what the United Nations does?
