Should the Israel/Christian camp be protected/celebrated/supported while the Palenstine/Muslim camp is vilified/banned/proscribed

I think it's disgusting. You can't ban/block/bar/criminalise one side while not doing the same to the other. It's basically becoming a 'religious war' being waged not in the Middle East but in countries/states/parliaments of many other countries including here in Australia.

It's not supposed to be western countries almost pukeworthy promoting/supporting Israel and Jewish people while legislating against the Palestinian people almost to the point where they don't have a right to exist.

How is that ethical? Even my friends who are some Jewish some Palestinian all hate what's going on. Very few of them take 'hate the other side' points of view. Clearly the two people who shot up the Jewish event at Bondi Beach did, but they were neither my friends nor really the sort of people we want in Australia. Most Jewish and most Muslim people are very peaceful and respectful of each others belief systems.

People might have a much more moderate opinion of the cause if they stopped burning babies. Just saying!

@GerOttman Who is using the babies for human shields? You do realize that if the goal was to obliterate ALL of them from the face of this earth that they have the tools to do that job and to do so efficiently and expeditiously.... So clearly that is NOT the intent.. So I humbly suggest that YOU exercise care when you seek to use simple excuses ... to blame without evidence, reason or cause is reckless and invariably its based upon strong levels of anti Jewish BIAS... Israel is strong for a reason and the reason is that the survival of the state is non negotiable... If Israel did not have this strength there would be not one Jew left alive there.. If the Arabs had no guns.. there would be peace.. There is no fairness or equity in this so do not presume that there should be or that there ever will be - that is not going to happen and who decides what the outcome will be for Israel are the Jews who live there not you....You don't get a vote in this.... Israel is the only place on this earth where Jews can defend themselves from an endless number of people who seek their eradication ... The state was founded on the words never again and you need to come to the realization that they actually MEAN it.. The oldest hatred in the world is anti semitism... The bible tells us and it has been proven though every part of recorded history that in every generation they will rise up against us... So please forgive us for being armed to the teeth to ensure that they will fail when they try... Jews are a minuscule population in this world and they exist for a reason... Please allow them to do their job and learn to curb your hatred.. You don't need to like it... but that is the way it is.

People might have a much more moderate opinion of the cause if they stopped burning babies. Just saying!

Fabricated Claims: The widely circulated report that militants burned or beheaded 40 babies in Kfar Aza was not supported by evidence and was deemed false.

Refuted Incidents: Analyses, such as those regarding a specific house in Kibbutz Be'eri, refuted claims that the bodies of eight babies were found burned, noting there were no babies in that location.

Documented Atrocities: While specific, widely shared claims of burned babies were false, official reports confirm that infants and children were killed during the attack.

Thousands of kids were killed, and buried alive, as a result of Israel's shelling Gaza, since the Hamas attacks on October 7th 2023. Thousands more lost multiple limbs and vision but cannot seek medical help.

Ehud Olmert (who served as Israel's Prime Minister from 2006 to 2009) has accused the current Israeli government, led by Benjamin Netanyahu, of committing war crimes in Gaza. In a June 2025 opinion piece for Haaretz and subsequent interviews, Olmert labeled the military action in Gaza as a "war of devastation" and an "indiscriminate, limitless, cruel and criminal killing of civilians".

Chuck Schumer echoed the same sentiment as well.

People in the US and Britain have been forbidden from discussing this, because they have been expelled from schools, fired from their jobs, and labeled as anti-semites, for doing so.

Granted there are some shitheads, who were carrying "LGTBQ for Hamas" signs, but that's a minority, that gives Trump and Netanyahu an excuse to carry out their inhumane agenda.

I have no idea who you're responding to, but your inhumanity shines through. You may also choose to say "I don't know anything about this," but then you really would need to admit that you're clueless. I'll go with the latter.

The so-called cease fire is a joke. At least 19 people were killed on Feb 4, 2026 in Gaza, with reports indicating most were women and children, according to NPR and The Guardian.
