    “Big thing too big, politicians only think small, not big. Me not want to say what I really think”… neither do I Andy, because you’d have me kicked out of the country just like your predecessor. Same shit different asshole.

    I guess the pile of dead children is probably too big for him to acknowledge now. Where do you find such morally empty sad disgusting bitch ass fucking losers?

    I’m somewhat suspicious of the way the Guardian didn’t actually publish the interview itself, but just their journalist’s writeup of it. We’re not told what the question he answered actually was, just what it was “about”, and then the headline writers of the outlets quoting that quote take it a step further into implying that he’s a full-on genocide denier.

    Israel is doing exactly what it was made to do, why would the USA and UK betray their own creation? Especially since it’s working.

    The UK were instrumental in giving birth to this settler-colony by issuing the Balfour declaration in 1917, taking Palestine over after World War 1, arresting and executing Palestinian nationalists during the Arab uprising in 1936, and training the Irgun and Hagana Jewish terror gangs and then promptly high tailing it out of there when the going got rough. So its no surprise that British politicians are hand in glove supporting this current genocide.

      Not that the 1917 Balfour declaration was well written or overly centered on justice-- “The Balfour Declaration” was merely a very short letter from a british secretary to Lord Rotheschild after all (to curry favor), not an official policy document or government statement-- but zionists pretended it was more of a policy declaration than it was. Israel immediately violated what protections the Balfour letter imagined.

      Balfour specified that “nothing shall be done which may prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish communities in Palestine”.

      Zionists immediately launched into violating civil and religious rights in minute #1 of the Israeli states existence and theyve never stopped for a single second of that states existence. There has never been an Israel there that wasnt based on hatred, racism, and vicious oppression that massively violates civil and religious rights.

      You also said the UK trained Irgun. I think you are mistaken. Irgun was primarily trained by instructors from the Polish Armed Forces in 1938 and 1939, with supplementary instruction received at the Military Engineers School in Fascist Italy. The training was facilitated through partnerships forged by Vladimir Jabotinsky’s Revisionist Zionist movement. Training Irgun was a nazi project. Irgun then became the IDF. Heres an interesting read on that: https://fpif.org/running-war/

      Irgun was attacking the Brits with terrorism attacks right before Israel was formed. Heres a timeline of those many attacks against the British.

      I’d argue that Israel was as much or more a nazi creation as it was the UK.

    If you call our Israeli influence across national boundaries you are called an antisemite and a conspiracy theorist. But here we are, planting zionists in all the worlds leadership positions despite in being unpopular with the voters of “democracies”

      The UN has called it genocide. I don’t even think we can joke about diet genocide anymore. I’m not really sure what other international authority on this type of stuff needs to call it genocide for people to stop tiptoeing around it.
