What is going on in Gaza is the Palestinian’s Holocaust. The U.S. and UK are both criminally complicit. We cannot expect anything from the politicians who rose to give Netanyahu multiple ovations. Likewise in the UK the government does nothing.

This is the time for the Scottish government, not merely to speak out, but to do something. Scotland must not be complicit in mass murder and genocide. This is the ideal time to break off relations with Westminster based on this one issue. We can’t be part of it. I think this would go beyond party loyalties in Scotland and unite the nation behind independence from a criminal state.

If you're not one of us and don't think as we do, you have no right to exist. By that reckoning alone, Israel is a fascist state.

Karl Sabbagh's recent book ' The path to Oct. 7th ' is a must read if you want to understand how, from the earliest times of the Zionist ' Project' just how ruthless and single-minded they were in achieving their aim of eventually occupying the whole of Palestine.

They have no intention to ever accept a 2 State solution even if every country in the UN agrees that they should.

The USA will never force them to.

True, the US won't force Israel to do anything. However, the moral rot that is eating away at Israeli society will be its undoing.

I watched an interview with Gideon Levy on 'Democracy Now' about this. They showed a clip from the film, it's terrifying, a nightmare. They didn't live 'normal lives' they lived in paradise, next door to the people they slaughtered, so next to the hell they created. When I see ads on Ytube for holidays in the sun, it all looks like paradise and all I can think is, some do live like that, not just as a holiday, while others are forced into a living hell. Dreading 2025.
