That’s hardly controversial. They are a terrorist organisation.

Israel isn't innocent either though. They are doing more than 'retaliation' and have a long and dangerous history of influencing global politics.

There are no 'good guys' in this story and the degree to which clueless thickshits from the western world have chosen one side over the other has me bamboozled.

I feel for the innocent people on both sides who have been killed and remain under threat, but centuries of history tells us that there are barbaric f**kwits on both sides intent on ensuring that long-term, sustained peace and prosperity remains elusive.
100 percent. Well said.

This is what kicked off the latest rounds of ongoing conflict. Things seemed to have been relatively calm.
The media rarely mention this anymore.

If they lied about this and quadrupled the numbers how can we beleive and trust what is being fed to us from the other side of the world?
We know this information is fake but outside of Sydney most would beleive it

Exactly, yet people here are so quick to pick a side. I follow Parra and Australia, the rest can get f**ked. I do however have a soft spot for Mother Russia, Serbia, Bitcoin and Rolex.

Now for some real political analysis.
When the Libs lost the election so badly, it occurred to me that that result was highly unlikely to happen organically. As a result, I concluded (opinion only) that the Libs deliberately threw the election.
I had to then ask myself why would they do that and the only thing that came to mind was that something so Orwellian, something the Libs could never be seen to be a part of, would happen in this country in this term of Gov.
As far fetched as this might sound to some of you, IF what I'm hearing is correct, the foundations for this scenario are being penned by the ALP as I type this.

If any of you think that Agenda 2030 died with the hysteria of covid, I'm fairly certain that there is bad news coming for you.

Interesting take. The current Liberal leader has as much chance as Mark Latham of being the next PM. She will be the sacrificial lamb.

Not all people who deride the actions of the current Israeli Gov over it's stance in Palistine are lefties.
You ban marches or protests and you are looking down a very slippery slope
If you encourage constant Protest and Marches you are heading down a very slippery slope as well.

It works both ways as far as i am concerned.

Especially when a lot of this is led by serial pest Josh Lees who has nothing more better to do in his miserable life other then continually push for protests for any cause.

Are we now going to close the Sydney Harbour Bridge every month over this.

What's next the Greenies marching across the Harbour bridge for more action on Climate change.

You give people an inch they will take a mile.

I already heard on the radio this morning more marches over this nonsense are being planned on the 24th August.

So what we waste more police resources & piss more Tax payers money down the drain.

Last time I checked we are Australia not Palestine.

If it means so much to these people hop on a plane and go do something over there.

I don't support war & want world peace as much as anyone. But the reality is as a world its never going to happen. Too many egomanics who want to be dictators.

But anyone thinking there true heroes for walking across the Harbour bridge are kidding themselves.

I remember well some of the more high profile march/protests organised in the '70s for things such as wanting to dam the Gordon/Franklin Rivers.
The nuclear testing on Mururoa and Fangataufa Atolls by the French.
There were quite a few others and some involved violence.
If there were no protests those pristine areas of Tasmania would now be under water.
If there were no protests the cancer rates in this country (as bad as they are) could possibly be much worse.
This situation is different because it's not on our doorstep.
People not wanting to see genocide and feeling like they must take some kind of action against it(however futile) and thus joining a march over the Harbour Bridge so their voice about it can be heard is not a bad thing.
You don't have to have picked a side either to want to do this.
Banning protests and marches is the ideal of a fascist Putting a slight disruption of Sydney traffic above an issue as important as this is the thinking of a self absorbed globalist.

Don't worry though, soon enough we'll all be living like the folks of Oslo in Norway. There won't be any traffic as there will be very few cars on the road and then the pesky protesters will have all the roadway in the world to march upon without putting anyone out for a few hours. You can watch from your seat on the Metro as you wizz past these despicable people.
