I've always been wary of anyone that thinks so highly of themselves as to refer to themselves as "god's chosen people".

[@PORRRIDGE_GUN]

yeah, but chosen for what?

[@vtdemocracy7520]

That's not exclusive to jews. check your hatred, mark. you only make israel stronger when you say things like this.

Conservative Christians in the US tend to make similar, and similarly false, claims.

[@Forget-me-not144]

Whatever

[@pompelmostique]

"What else could they have done?" you mean besides the slaughter of 40,000 human lives, you mean... James? That question stopped being helpful 4 months ago, mate. The US trained Israel's special forces and yet... No targeted attacks on civilians, just targeted attacks on schools, hospitals, etc. and only broad-spectrum residential bombings killing civilians.

[@OxidusMagicus]

Mr call out R@cism is still yet to call out a single war crime against the Palestinians, he will call out mean words by the Tories but not wholesale killing of a population.

[@TheLucanicLord]

Didn't the head of the IDF say they'd prioritize damage over accuracy before they'd even started?

[@greamespens1460]

Sorry do you mean the Israeli targeting schools or Hamas doing so. All I see is that Israel are more capable

I'm glad they suspended that disgusting Levy.

[@sirfrozsomji3984]

17:17 How many Palestinians held as hostages in Israeli military prisons, including lots of women and children for decades without trial, and you have to remember they're the occupied people

[@erichardy32]

Whats terrible about living in America is that I've always been a mental health advocate and personally love therapy. But I'm currently between jobs and don't have insurance and can't afford therapy. America is broken in too many ways. Don't let the Tories ruin the NHS.

[@daftgowk1]

The English voters have ensured that the NHS is already lost to Tory rule. Thousands of deaths already during COVID, and now because the NHS is in ruination. All thanks to their votes

[@daftgowk1]

Comment censored by KZbin, again. You just can't criticise the English voters on this platform, no chance

[@equaliser2265]

Police investigating words from 2019, that says it all. They should be investigating UK dual citizens who went to fight within the IDF, I thought there was a law to prevent UK citizens fighting in foreign wars.

[@gooner7331]

Why should they be mutually exclusive. Are you saying that the whole of the police should only investigate 1 crime at a time. Oh and those words that you casually gloss over, i assume were the words that called for a serving MP to be murdered and not by some rando with no power. They were said by the biggest donor to the Tory party. So basically their boss, so someone who's words that shouldn't be taken lightly 🤷

[@brucemacdougall6121]

There's a theory that Israel wants to build a wider Suez Canal straight through Gaza, bypassing the narrower Egyptian part. To do that means removing the Palestinians.

[@user-qf1zg4zz8j]

Don't forget access to gas and oil fields deemed to belong to the Palestinians by the UN.

[@notbornagainbornright5046]

It's relevant to report on Palestinians because I watch from Las Vegas and enjoy your reporting !!! Thank you

*Response to Oct 7th* *Response to Oct 7th* *Response to Oct 7th* What should the response be to decades of Apartheid at the hands of people who've stolen your land??

[@greamespens1460]

Dear James may I ask with regards to misalignment would this apply to those at the Cenotaph too ?

[@user-qf1zg4zz8j]

James will you please do your homework on "Mowing the lawn", The "Da hi ya doctrine" and what happened during " The great march of return" and the ongoing land grab and attrocities in the West Bank as examples why it didn't start on 7th October. - Perhaps watch "One day in Gaza". NB the Isr ar elis validated the Humus health ministry casualty figures and use them in military briefings as exposed in Is ra eli press. Euromed casualty figures are much higher because they take more account of those buried in the rubble. Please don't forget the 7,500 Palestinians held under Military Incarceration many without charge and having to sign a confession in Hebrew that they can't read. Also if Guyana can explain why the US resolution was dissembling I'm sure you can.

[@chrish961]

Re the flag...the olympic 2012 kits were blue....this goes back to british exceptionalism and is totally bonkers...people...the country is knackered...re focus your hatred at the politicians for their failure

Not what had changed, but what can be gained, by heading the resolution.

[@firefox5926]

1841 do we all believe that ? tho because i dont ... and even if i did and we all did that wouldn't make it right or correct ... i mean i could point out that this sort of playing fast and loose with what constitutes self defense was exactly how we ended up invading Afghanistan and Iraq America has the right to defend itself from terrorism by... what exactly ? invading two country's and killing directly or in directly several thousand times as many people who had very little is anything to do with the attacks that killed a couple of thousand American ? thats what you consider self defense ? ... also remember terrorism is a crime it something you handle with the police .. not the army ... it does my head in

[@aion5837]

The US made great efforts to heal the rift between Saudi Arabia and Israel. That relationship has now gone very sour. The US taking a different position on Gaza may at least have something to do with it. The last thing that the US wants is for Saudi Arabia and Iran to form closer ties. It may happen anyway. Which will hugely reduce US influence in the region.

[@supergamer815]

James really said that the British army was okay in the North of Ireland 😮

[@sirfrozsomji3984]

Did the British or French had the right to defend itself when it was the colonizer? The early Zionists saw the establishment of Israel as as a settler colonialist project - "architects of Zionism were conscious and often unapologetic about their status as colonizers whose right to the land superseded that of Palestine's Arab inhabitants" John Collins. "Zionism is a colonization adventure" Vladimir Jabotinsky - Zionism as settler colonialism - Wikipedia

[@zoeblake6740]

No but they told the same lies then. About the Mau Mau and the IRA etc

[@user-db8gq7tf3l]

How else do you expect journalists to react? You look for and present the facts and then get accused of being pro one side or the other and you get your address posted online

[@greamespens1460]

"people on the left care for people". Mao, Lenin, Stalin they were on the left and it was Orwell that warned us

[@ibexdnb2879]

That doesn't matter though because James is on the right team aye 😂

[@kevinskiles2033]

Sorry, saying they were on the left doesn't make it true. Russia and North Korea are supposedly democracies. Do you think so?

[@jwhitenstall]

Well done for taking the time to speak about mental health. It's quite sad that James doesn't understand why people, who are deprived of home rule, and are regularly ridiculed by the British who come to our country to rule over us, don't like it when they see an important cultural symbol corrupted by an American corporation.

[@anthonybernstein9698]

No other country in living history in the world has been invaded by over 4000 terrorists and in one day lost over 1200 citizens killed in the most atrociousof ways Over 4000 citizens injured, and 253 citizens taken hostage. Villages burnt down with families inside, and millions of pounds of property stolen and destroyed. My question is very simple, What would England have done? We saw what England did together with GW Bush, they joined forces and went to war against Iraq, England went to fight a war over 3 thousand miles away against a country where she wasn't defending against but assisting a friend. Just picture the situation, America was attacked and England joined in the war. England had no skin in the game, it cost the lives of many brave soldiers. England sent a task force to the Falkland Islands in 1982, a worthless group of Islands 250 miles off the coast of Argentina. Over 200 soldiers died, young lives wasted for a place most people in England hadn't even heard of. What would England do if a close neighbour did the same atrocious things as October 7th. as hamas did to Israeli and foreign nationals.

[@jhkenojhkeno2210]

You obviously didn't study history in school

[@TheLucanicLord]

Pretty sure the Germans did that and more to the Soviet Union - and vice versa.

[@FerreusNRG]

Iraq war resulted in largest protests in UK history, collapsed labor party popularity, Blair resigned. Dublin is size of Gaza City, Dublin wasn't razed despite IRA killing 1800. Uk counter attack against Argentina resulted in 3 dead civilians. Three. Not 30000. Three.

[@alanbeaumont4848]

Copying terrorism doesn't fight terrorism, which is why there is a cycle of violence.

[@lutherblissett9070]

Possibly similar to everyone else in the country - private health care is available to all who can afford it, it would be very weird to opt to not take the best possible care available to you.
