[@Non-Doctors-Music]

It wasn't the peoples' choice. Brexit lies led to installing a puppet authoritarian government that repeatedly broke UK law and tried to break international law. There was a Stalinist-type purge of decent politicians by our "Glorious leader Johnson" leading to seriously mentally and empathy deficient people with track records of perversion, corruption, incompetence, and lying being appointed as MPs. You can see the result in the economic failures of the UK along with its loss of soft power, and five different Prime Ministers in 14 years. It's hard to clean such a toxic government when the've curtailed the right to protest, created so many problems (I think deliberately) to distract people from organizing a peoples' opposition as they are struggling with the largest tax burden for over 100 years, openly racist leadership, millions of people waiting for hospital treatment, deliberately created the largest number of asylum seekers ever with spiraling cost for accommodation to piss people off, given hundreds of billions of pounds to the wealthiest business and people, created the largest gap in inequality outside the US, spent most of their time working for themselves, and allowing energy prices to zoom upwards, bathing waters to be polluted with millions of gallons of turds and even allowed coliform to come out in the drinking water supply. That's only the start of it ... but there are a majority of decent people in the UK.

Why does anyone think Hamas would stop its ambitions of destroying Israel? Do they not understand the Islamic “Taqiyya appears in Sura 3:28:"? “Let not the believers take the unbelievers for friends; and whoever does this, shall have nothing to do with Allâh in any matter; unless you do this to protect yourselves from the unbelievers. Thus Allâh cautions you to have reverence only for him. To Allâh is destiny.” [Translation.] Regarding 3:28, Ibn Kathir writes, “… believers who in some areas or times fear for their safety from the disbelievers… are allowed to show friendship to the disbelievers outwardly, but never inwardly.” Ibn Kafthir quotes Muhammad‘s companion, Abu Ad-Darda’, who said “we smile in the face of some people although our hearts curse them"

The Ottoman Empire, which supported the Nazis, lost the area in question in WW1. What don't you understand? It was given to the jews. Gaza was created by Egypt as well. A haven for radicals.

I am truly flabbergasted with your ability to ignore history and current facts (where has the international aid to Palestine gone?). RADICALISM.

[@sigi9669]

Exactly this. I would like to refer anyone doubting this to the ICJ verdict of 2004 where this factuality was specified.

[@JamieTwells]

Do they have the right to resist in the way they resisted on October 7th?

[@sigi9669]

@@JamieTwells Short answer, yes. Under international law the October 7 attack was a justified act of armed resistance. Which is not to say that everything which happened on that day was legal. As there are clear indications that there were some individual fighters who committed unlawful acts. All the evidence which we've seen so far indicates that these illegal acts were not centrally coordinated. Meaning that any criminal proceedings will have to target individuals, not the organisation as a whole. In the same way any soldier committing unlawful acts in an otherwise lawful fight can be prosecuted. The taking of civilian hostages is murky. As this is technically illegal under international law. But any judge ruling on this will take into account the fact that Israel has been doing this for decades. And at any given time holds thousands of Palestinian civilians hostage. As Hamas took these hostages in an attempt to trade them for Palestinian civilian hostages, this won't likely weigh heavy on a possible verdict towards Hamas. To end on a sarcastic note: of the 1200 Israeli people who died on that day 700 were soldiers, and thus legitimate targets. Which puts the collateral damage split lower than one to one. Which, by Israelis stated metric, makes the al-Qassam brigades (Hamas' military wing) the most moral army in the world (Israel's words, not mine).

Duhhh. It's not British you British have been led u the garden path for years. They just blind you with BS and have taught you just to be racist and carry on with it while they have been hijacking Britain in the background.

Why should we have a failed prime minister as Foreign Secretary ? Cameron should be bring grilled too !

[@celestesmith6060]

Will be good to see him before the court in The Hague...then, if found guilty, in jail for life.

[@jack-adams1]

unfortunately he is in the House of Lords so cant be grilled by a House of Commons select committee. Basically he cannot be scrutinised by an elected body

[@adrien5834]

The International Committee of Justice for Palestine (ICJP) in the UK is collecting evidence to bring those enabling, abetting and failing to prevent genocide and war crimes to the ICC. I learned that from Owen Jones’ interview and made immediately a modest donation within my meagre budget. It sounds like these guys are just digging a deeper hole for themselves by hiding behind confidential legal advisory, House of Lords, parliamentary / ministerial immunity. That’s not how the ICC indictments and arrest warrants work. National laws have little protection against ICC, even for countries that are not signatories of the Rome statutes. They really take us and the parliament for fools. Gloves off!

Don't forget, Julian Assange has been held in A maximum security prison without charge or conviction for journalism and publishing. What are these so-called members of this parliament doing exactly to immediately release Julian Assange as of now. Do these people look or sound like they are a reliable source of democracy? What credibility do these people have?

[@FM-in8pn]

If there are any journalists worth their salt in this country Mr Assange would have been released by now???

[@timonsolus]

Assange has been granted the right to appeal his extradition to the United States. He is however still in custody in Belmarsh Prison because the judge deemed him to still be a flight risk (obviously, he’s absconded from British court proceedings before).

[@1inchPunchBowl]

What you have demanded would only be worthy of a dictatorship. We have laws & rules that we all must abide by. He has been granted leave to appeal. I know it upsets you that demands from randoms on social media do not constitute UK law, but them's the breaks I'm afraid.
