The reason I put it in quotes was not to signify some disapproval, but I reject the idea that this is a particularly heinous offence different from dropping bombs from the air or firing tank shells. If anything at least the bombers sacrifice themselves.<BR/><BR/>But I agree that I should have explained rather than just use shorthand!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640441812647446166.post-62714152118774901662009-01-07T14:38:00.000+00:002009-01-07T14:38:00.000+00:00I don't agree that anyone who protests suicide bom...I don't agree that anyone who protests suicide bombs also supports the Israeli action. I'm against both.<BR/><BR/>Why did you put suicide bombs in quote marks? Do you disagree with the reporting of these events? You also put the word rockets in quote marks.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11802477315760221094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640441812647446166.post-38722986539808864462009-01-05T23:14:00.000+00:002009-01-05T23:14:00.000+00:00Brilliant stuff TG,and by the great folks of Brigh...Brilliant stuff TG,<BR/>and by the great folks of Brighton!joe90 kanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15925893894108250518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640441812647446166.post-77605220092526573442009-01-05T22:28:00.000+00:002009-01-05T22:28:00.000+00:00Good demo, nice to see a decent turnout (relative ...Good demo, nice to see a decent turnout (relative to this culture's general state of political apathy) at short notice, and people from all different backgrounds responding to their basic humanitarian reaction to outrageous acts of violence.Mangohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14109551463817639247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640441812647446166.post-61426556112228881282009-01-04T20:04:00.000+00:002009-01-04T20:04:00.000+00:00Louise,I'll link to you once I've remembered how t...Louise,<BR/><BR/>I'll link to you once I've remembered how to do it!<BR/><BR/>Yes they said 10,000 attended in London but I didn't think it could be that few. The BBC's been appallingly bad, much worse than even it normally is, throughout the crisis. Complete sticking to government line but people aren't so easily fooled. <BR/><BR/>Just been sent some more appalling photos I'm about to put up. I've lived in Brighton over 30 years and this was one of the largest and best demos - completely spontaneous - we've ever had.<BR/><BR/>This is a bit of a niche blog. You'll have seen some of the articles I've done on Socialist Unity re the freaks at the fringe of the PS movement (I've had 1 or 2 write to me personally - if you correspond directly - tonygreenstein@yahoo.com - I can copy some of their idiocies and some of the Zionist tykes who vent their spleen).<BR/><BR/>In fact I was thinking of doing a special post sometime of all the anti-semitic stuff I get sent but reject on this blog. Just so people can see what is being posted.<BR/><BR/>cheers<BR/><BR/>tonyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640441812647446166.post-37703358005410469352009-01-04T19:07:00.000+00:002009-01-04T19:07:00.000+00:00Excellent turn out for Brighton.I attended the Lon...Excellent turn out for Brighton.<BR/><BR/>I attended the London demo, it was around 50,000 though the media are desperate to underplay the significance of the collective anger shown at the Israeli State. And especially found the shoe throwing at the gates of Downing Street very cathartic and watching the cops having to jump out the way when a shoe came hurling past them...!!<BR/><BR/>Btw: great blog I have linked to you on my own blog (Harpymarx) and to the Socialist Unity blog which I contribute to.<BR/><BR/>Louise/harpymarxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640441812647446166.post-71490652794039676762009-01-04T00:21:00.000+00:002009-01-04T00:21:00.000+00:00Thanks, it's the last we can do in the face of the...Thanks, it's the last we can do in the face of the massive use of state terror against an unarmed civilian population.<BR/><BR/>I post 2 links below to film taken by ISM volunteers, who have stayed behind, in Gaza.<BR/><BR/>Tony<BR/><BR/>https://rcpt.yousendit.com/638793038/3d1d8847315ee66181138e169e8d6337 <BR/><BR/>https://rcpt.yousendit.com/638802096/aa05ffbe19a8c1cb9e4dc25371c06691Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-640441812647446166.post-65031407593809311912009-01-03T23:00:00.000+00:002009-01-03T23:00:00.000+00:00Well done!Well done!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
