Why didn't they airlift supplies straight in? No Berlin airlift here, and they have their aircraft carrier fleet off-shore. Edited by steeleye20 (21 Dec 2023 2.55pm) Is there an airport in Gaza, let alone a functioning one? I doubt helicopters could make any significant difference even if it was safe for them to fly in a war zone. It has, I think, been done by road and the only way that can be done is for the bombardment to stop.
For the avoidance of doubt any comments in response to a previous post are directed to its ideas and not at any, or all, posters personally. |

Anyone mentioning aircraft carriers in relation to aid is not in the same reality as everyone else. * sorry just noticed the poster was someone who is not in the same reality Edited by HKOwen (22 Dec 2023 4.49pm)
Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance. |

It is somewhat ironic to listen to Biden and co pleading to Israel to not kill civilians and talk about 'indiscriminate bombing' while at the same time on Christmas day, Israeli broadcaster Channel 12 reported that 244 US cargo planes and 20 ships have transported over 10,000 tonnes of arms and military equipment to the Israeli military since the beginning of the war. The US should just come out and be honest.....but that's what you get from modern day western leaderships, they cry out in pain as they bomb. Edited by Stirlingsays (27 Dec 2023 3.55am)

Just unbelievable that a State can be invaded, and the indiscriminate killing of civilians sanctioned by the West , who are also supplying arms.

Yep, when the UN are forced to come in and rescue the Palestinians from starvation.....Guess where the UN are going to want to send those Palestinians.

I would ask if it is so unfair on the ground why the Palestinians don’t shop and stop Hamas and start to grow a pair. Even over here the poll tax riots did something and that was about money, not survival.

Rumblings with Houthis attacking oil tankers and Iran executing select prisoners. Whilst all seems in hand, it wouldn't take much of an escalation to ramp things up a few notches for the whole region. Edited by Forest Hillbilly (31 Dec 2023 11.40am)

Edited by Forest Hillbilly (31 Dec 2023 11.40am) South Africa would be familiar with this with the genocide of white farmers.
