Harsh. It’s a very funny book with some horrifying moments. The movie is more of a slow burn. There is nothing in the movie as side-splitting odd as the chapter praising Huey Lewis and the News, not even the business card scene.

Good film, astonishing book.

Solid arguments all, presented, I believe, in good faith. Thanks.

I don’t believe that most of the people shitting on Israel anonymously on platforms like this have considered any of them.

It seems like you agreeing with me and arguing with the original poster who claimed that he is definitely a war criminal. Thanks.

Surely that is also true of every single country established in the last 300 years. Making it even more absurd how the world’s only Jewish majority state is singled out for disapprobation.

I have no argument with that, but it fundamentally contradicts your earlier comment about Zionism being a false dream. Zionism and Israel has provided a haven for Jews from Russia, Ethiopia, Iran, Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, Lebanon, Libya, Syria, and more. The dream is very real and very necessary.

Thanks for admitting that.

You’re an idiot.

Bye now.

I want both Palestinians and Jews to have self determination in their own countries.

You only want that for Palestinians.

One of us is a silly bigot and it isn’t me.

This is awful. Unequivocally.

But if you think this bears any similarity to the industrialized murder of 6 million Jewish men, women, and children, then you’re an idiot.

I don’t defend genocide. I am an Israeli Zionist who has consistently voted to end the occupation and the siege of Gaza and negotiate a just solution for the Palestinians based on 67 borders and land swaps. Am I still a Nazi?

Charming. No more nor less than I would expect from an aggressive Jew-hating twerp.

If you are ever in Israel I would invite you over for a cup of tea and some spirited debate.

I guess we’re just different that way.

He was wrong then. He’s wrong now. Hamas must be removed from Gaza if there is to be any chance of Palestinian independence.

“The soldiers were released after being questioned as part of the investigation. However, on July 30, Belgian prosecutors decided to refer the case to the International Criminal Court (ICC) following a formal inquiry.”

Has the ICC ever in its history prosecuted individual soldiers for war crimes?

You get that Hebron isn’t in Gaza, right?

That’s what you get for spreading an antisemitic blood libel.

Would you like any someone capable of this level of hate speech treating you?

Your comparison of Zionists with Nazis is deliberately aimed at causing maximum offence to Jews. You don’t call Hamas Nazis or Isis, or Hezbollah or Russia.

What is the correct term for someone who tries to cause maximum offence to Jewish people?

You filthy, Jew-hating halfwit.

There is no definition of the legal term war crime which could include the authorship of this article.

Why would you humiliate yourself by suggesting such nonsense.

You don't think the NY Times swallowing lies and propaganda and printing them on the front page is significant?

Do you believe everything Hamas says about the number of casualties in Gaza? Does it bother you that they do not distinguish between combatants and non-combatants?

The original article claimed that the child's condition was entirely due to starvation. The retraction from the NYT, exposed that they had lied and that the child was born with a serious medical condition. This is all well documented, hence the retraction.

In what jurisdiction, under what law is it illegal for me to post here?

I have never visited mumsnet. I am not a mum.

I have not defended genocide. There is no evidence including this article that the author has committed a war crime of any kind.

New York Times stunningly rolls back claims about viral photo of starving Gaza boy “This additional detail gives readers a greater understanding of his situation.”

Perhaps you missed the news story where the venerable NYT had to publish a retraction after mislabeling a picture of a sick child in Gaza.

It fully supports the headline in the article you quote.

YOu claimed that being Israeli by definition makes someone a war criminal. There are Israeli children, Israelis with Down Syndrome and Israeli Muslims. Do you want to revise your moronic statement?

You feckin eejit.

Love this. I post using my real name and a real picture of me (albeit aged 17) and a goofy anonymous halfwit calling itself “Titman Edge” questions whether I’m real.

You feckin eejit.

I haven’t defended anything. I have simply said that calling someone a war criminal without any evidence may be defamatory.

I’m amazed that you consider that controversial.

Of course you would “Titman”. Are you single by any chance?

Did someone put a call out to the least self-aware fuckwits to respond to me today? Is this some kind of arsehole internship program?

If you have specific evidence about a specific individual committing a specific war crime on a specific date, then they should be charged and tried.

But your blanket use of “they” extrapolating the actions of individuals to stand for any Israeli ever is horseshit, I’m afraid.

Are Israeli children war criminals? Israelis with Down Sydrome? There are 2 million Israeli Muslims. Are they war criminals or do you just mean the Jews?

Yours may be the single dumbest comment on the internet today.

You silly feckin bigot.

Are Jews the only people to whom you would deny the right to self determination?

Just to be clear, when you opened your account here you decided that the best possible handle you could choose to get involved in serious conversations about the urgent need for peace in the Middle East and Palestinian independence was "The Jizzler" but I'M super lame?

You feckin eejit.
