Sorry Mike but when I hear the words "an unnamed source " I usually translate that as the reporter, journalist or someone controlling either or, has made this up. let's just say my B. S. alarm goes off.

Ah Alistair Crooke. He does know his stuff on the middle east but is a bit of an apologist for Hamas and co. Bit of Lawrence of Arabia syndrome.

Interesting video though.

Aaron just go along with it to keep the peace, they are too young to know any better. They can make their own decisions when they are older. I was in their shoes once. Only time I go to church now is for weddings and funerals and both depress the tits of me.

Never heard of this before so I looked it up, watched the video.
Those girls either had some sort of super human bone structure or there is a god (I'd rather go with super human).
First girl hit by a 40+ foot vehicle went under the wheels, and there's lots of wheels on them trucks, how did she survive that. unreal.

In 1947 the UN mandate created Israel by partitioning Palestine into Jewish and muslim areas. The Israelis accepted the deal. The Palestinians didn't and went running to their neighbours, Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq asking for help in throwing the Jews into the sea and vowing to finish what hitler started. The arabs lost wars in 1948, 1956, 1967 and 1973. The arab coalition became disillusioned with military failure and one by one made peace with Israel. The Palestinians increasingly resorted to terrorist tactics. Indeed Arafat was related to the Grand Mufti who was a big hitler supporter.

This is the reason the Israelis built the wall, since building it how many buses or cafes have been blown up by suicide bombers. None. All that's left is aimless rocket attacks.

If the Palestinians accept the state of Israel (something they have not done - its been a reality for almost 70 years) and stop trying to fight an unwinnable fight we would a step nearer a solution. The rest of the region (with the exception if the mullah's in Iran) accepted political reality decades ago.

If this happened then it would be easier to get a proper Palestinian state. And they could concentrate on trying to build a future. However the Israelis also have to bend, they have to allow the Palestinians to rebuild, they also have to abandon the illegal settlements and return that land.

I do not for one second agree or condone what the Israelis are doing. No one wants to see pictures of dead children. Both sides have to bend though and this once and for all. It doesn't help when Hamas reject ceasefires brokered by Cairo. Israel should never have committed ground forces and this is to be condemned.

I'm Russian by birth and an EU citizen by nationality so I have no particular allegiance to either side.

Check out this animation for the basics on Israel and Palestine

It's incredibly unjust what has happened to Palestine and it's people.

Following WW2 and the holocaust, which was obviously one of the most horrific and horrendous atrocities in human history, many Jews found themselves without a home.

The newly formed United Nations decided to "create" Israel (or re-create Israel if you believe the bible) by dividing Palestine, and relocating Jews to the area.
It so happens that Jews and Muslim Palestinians had lived side by side in the region for centuries, with no conflict.

Ever since, Israel have been further encroaching Palestinian lands, taking more and more. Palestinian agriculture has suffered and they struggle to survive as a result. Import is limited or non-existent. The Israelis have better infrastructure, education, medicine etc. whilst Palestinians are treated as second class citizens.

We see lots about Israel, Palestine, Gaza etc. on the news daily, yet I'm baffled at how it's reported. It's not a conflict. Its not a war. Let's call it what it is: apartheid.

Having said that, I personally don't believe that it's motivated purely by religion. I refer to the fact that Muslims and Jews lived side by side before the UN sanctioned Israel a Jewish state

It's important to remember that Israel benefit from billions in foreign aid from the US. Most of it in the form of military assistance

Israel was formed by Britain promising some Zionist Jews some part of Palestine. They took over and the Palestinians obviously tried to fight back. Before all this happened Palestine was mostly Muslim but had jews living together in harmony! Then there has been 2-3 wars and Israel has been taking more and more land from them illegally!

Israel control the sea the borders of Palestine they don't let anything such as raw materials or anything into Palestine most gets smuggled in such as building materials, certain foods etc. Palestinians are not allowed to move freely etc. Israeli forces are at every part of Palestine and when they get confronted or Palestine fight back, Israel tries to make it out as though they are defending themselves but the truth is, Israel is doing to the Palestinians what the nazi did to the jews!

Most Jews are against this but it's the Zionist Jews who are doing all this! God bless the Palestinians and the good news because these zionists are going to start world war!

It was a US drone

No worries mate, new to me as well.

While I agree with you, Herbie, that there is a cure for AIDs out there somewhere (I believe it's man-made so surely man can also cure it), gaining a patent for a so-called 'cure' doesn't mean it's effective or even useful.

All a patent does is confirm that a product/ compound etc. is unique.

Good man Harold but that's not the one I was looking for, interesting all the same

Hi mate, not really my area but I was told to watch this guy called John harries a few months back and found it very interesting. Here is a link to one of his vids, not sure if its what you are after mind.

I believe there was a post on here maybe 3 months back. Patent 5??? can't remember the numbers, maybe the ed knows.
Within the cure was if I remember some sort of mercury formula.

Patent US5676977.
Found it, try google.

Am sure this was an American in court

What cure are you talking about herbie

Terribly bleak but very interesting. Thomas Sheridan is new to me and I am making my way through his youtube channel Franky. Fascinating guy. Thanks.

Ryan.
