Opinion INTERNATIONAL Politics: Adelaide Board Discussion Part 5

[Mr_Moogle]

Whether the pendulum goes too far left or too far right it always swings back to the middle before going the other direction then rinse and repeat.

Republicans can't help themselves. They'll deregulate the shit out of the financial sector, cause another economic meltdown and get booted out. Then when the next govt. has to clean up the mess, they'll be unpopular, get booted out and the cycle will repeat.

Without a 2 state solution, will continue to be a mess. Need to make sure Palastian leaders have nothing to do with Hamas... which surely can't be too hard given what has just happened because of Hamas starting this mess.

This is the crux of the matter. The war is between Israel, a state, and Hamas, a terrorist organization. The Palestinians have no role in negotiating any ceasefire, and how can a terrorist organization be taken seriously? The Palestinians should dissociate themselves from Hamas, but of course they won't, leading to the insoluble problem.

A two-state solution by defiinition would only involve Israel and the Palestinian Authority, so can't exist while Hamas does. Hamas must be killed off for any lasting peace. So, the problem will be everlasting.

Was killing 47K people, vast majority of whom are innocent a suitable retaliation?

Ask Hamas. They orchestrated it.

Ask Hamas. They orchestrated it.

Exactly. They organized the original slaughter and must have known what was going to happen, so they wanted this. The question is why, and what are they hoping to gain from the situation? (Obviously, not peace.) I asked this on the day of the original attack and still don't know the answer.

The only think I can think of was they thought Iran or Hezbollah would join in?

Mind you, the people who know are probably dead now anyway, so we will never know.

So are you saying Israel's response killing 47K mostly innocent people is justified?

I’ll be amazed if we have peace for any sort of time - if two state isn’t part of the solution then this will reignite again. Guaranteed.

Britain’s Brexit reality check: Why the majority now want back in

Every UK poll now shows a majority longing to rejoin the EU – but can Britain overcome its Brexit scars?

I wonder if a population has ever sabotaged it's own country so badly?

Mind you, those who lied have still not been held accountable for pushing it

That's what you get when you don't recognise Boris Johnson is a complete clown with little substance.

Managed to destroy his own party too.
