How does calling for a ceasefire infringe on the human rights of Israelis? Is Shelagh saying that asking them to stop killing tens of thousands of Palestinians will adversely affect the Israelis?

[@Ell647]

Shelagh fogarty is such a disgrace

[@markool88]

That's exactly what she's trying to say... no matter how she tries to hide it

She also wanted all children mandated to get COVID vaccination before being allowed back to school, and awful woman

If they significantly change their stance though? Bare in mind there are Muslim Labour backbenchers and Shadow Cabinet ministers, they'd be able to influence a Labour govt the way those Brexiteer backbenchers do with the Tories

[@altGoolam]

​@@mah5262this is not a Muslim issue. This is a settler colonial and neo-Imperialism issue. If that isn't clear to the labour party by now, it is a hollow political entity.

Zionism has nothing to do with religion, and Israel would not exist if they hadn't conquered America through riba first . They are the de facto leaders of the West.

Like how shelia gets all pissy despite her inferring there are different human rights for different groups. She couldnt just say, sorry I phrased that poorly... Total arrogance, the guest was right to react like that

[@thepodbaydoorshal]

Yes she tried her hardest to gaslight talking about the human rights of Israelis (despite never talking about Palestinian rights), getting called out for her gaslighting, then putting on fake-outrage and trying to play the victim by saying he was shouting at her. Absolutely abhorrent woman, top-to-bottom.

[@cyp45459]

agree and so fed up about the Israel right to defend themselves - what about their duty to keep to their territories and the other internationally condemned actions. Why the media is not mentioning that Israel has more resolutions against for breaching international laws, unlawful killing, colonisation,... than all other world countries combined

[@Freed44om]

I like how you cut the last caller off there before she could explain the context, very subtle. We can't have people knowing too much about the occupation, the hundreds of Palestinians murdered in the West Bank prior to October 7th, the children put before military courts. That's not the narrative is it LBC.

[@kunafeh]

this is not just a Muslim vs Keir issue and I would request you to not turn it into one. A lot of non-Muslim british people feel betrayed by the absolute lack of a moral bone in Keir and his chums. He is power greedy and will do/say anything that could give him more votes. He is a run of the mill politician sitting in the lap of industrialists and under him the labor will not work for the common people. Not voting for him or his party is a service to British public at this point.

[@eks46]

Actually, an occupier does not have the right to defend itself against a population under its control. Armed resistance against the occupying power is acknowledged by international humanitarian law.

"Please stop shouting," what us it about English culture that makes y'all feel so empowered to say the MOST horrible things as long as one does so quietly. I think Shelagh is way further to the right than she gives herself credit for...

[@alanhat5252]

Channel4's _"Dispatches: Inside the Israel Lobby"_ is enlightening too. Just as enlightening is that it's the only Dispatches episode that's been taken down from Channel4's website, fortunately it's still on KZbin, Vimeo & archive sites.

[@user-ed7et3pb4o]

Thank you Anthony, well said. This is a human issue, not a Muslim issue. And it's disturbing to see that the leader of the opposition doesn't even have a bare minimum amount of gumption to challenge the Tories when mass slaughter is happening.

[@razorednight]

Israel cutting off water, food and fuel is blatantly illegal. For Starmer to support that act then dropping in a weak comment that "everything should be done within international law" is outrageous. Israel was breaching international law. Starmer failed to call it out, then continued to repeatedly support Israel. We all know Israel has the right to defend itself. Bombing civilians is not an act of self defense. The fact that Starmer used to be a human rights lawyer just makes it worse. He knows he's backing crimes.

[@AAcommonsense]

My muslim family, and we are many in number, have voted Labour for 2, soon to be 3 generations. We will NOT be voting Labour again. What a shame. But we want to send a clear message. Make no mistake, the Muslim community is the largest growing British population and Labour needs to appreciate we are a voting population that are concerned with humanitarian crisis.
