Point of order:

regular natural selection stopped functioning some time ago, when we founded civilisation.

Aside from taking navy showers, ditching my lawn, reducing watering in my garden to an absolute minimum, and using a high efficiency washing machine and dishwasher, there's not much more that people can do on an individual level, and even if everyone did this, it's only the proverbial drop in the bucket. If we cut…

Didn't we systematically slaughter the people who were on this (much bigger) piece of land to build our own country?Not saying our past actions excuse Israel's today, it just makes me personally uncomfortable to share my opinion as an American when we built our country on forcing our own neighbors out or relegating…

"Wholly irrelevant?" They are the government of Gaza. It is very much relevant. As relevant as you holding the Israeli government responsible for the actions of Israel. You can not call for one and not the other. You are wrong.

That you actually believe that the BBC reports without bias is hilarious.

This confusion is due to a weak and leftist news media in the U.S. This isn't a conflict between Israelis and Palestinians, it's between the Hamas and Israel. Saying all Palestinians are the Hamas is like saying all Muslims are Islamic extremists.

The BBC covered up the Jimmy Savile child-rape scandal for decades. I guess that "Ombudsman" guy isn't as terrifying a figure in reality as he is in your dreams.

You mean how Hamas makes a point of protecting civilians? Because last time I checked using children and elderly people as human shields (there's video evidence of it) and firing your weapons from hospitals, schools and mosques (there's evidence of it too) while forcing people to not evacuate, was oh so fair and…

I feel in America and other parts of the world the opinion pro Palestine is influenced by the larger group of Muslims who are decidedly against Israel. Because, of course, Israel is supposed to let Hamas throw as many rockets at them as they can, let them hit target so the death toll is more even, and share the iron…

Sure, they are supposed to let Palestine fire as many rockets as they want at them and give them the iron dome technology and let them hit Israelite targets to been out the death toll, right?

internet trolls.

you mean Al Jazerra is not in the middle? I'm shocked

The US has no right to 'liberate' Afghanistan.

Yes, it is. :)

I believe Hamas has the right to defend itself. But I don't believe for a second that their actions are in the interest of protecting their people rather than their own political agenda. They know how this works. If you attack Israel they will kick the living shit out of you, justified or not. I realize that sounds…

Except it's been the one breaking the ceasefires and firing the rockets. Believe it or not, looking for teens in the West Bank doesn't involve an attack on Gaza, but stopping concurrent rocket attacks certainly does.

It's amazing how quickly the West forgets that it totally fire fucked the entirety of Germany and Japan in order to win WW2.

Actually, it would be great if EVERYONE would just stfu about it. You know what I really don't care about when I'm trying to figure out if my family made it to their shelter in time or not? If some celebrity is for or against one side or the other. I've gagged several friends on social media so that I don't have to…
