Panorama - Gaza blockage

[oafc0000]

I know ya probably joking, but really!?!?

Is that all you can do, bring up a serious subject like this and then joke about it??

Climb out of your bubble and see what is really going on out there.

Jordan was never going to allow attacks from its soil and or the flouting of their laws and why should they.

While Jordan didn't like the military consequences from Israel when allowing the PLO to operate from its soil (and which led to them being kicked out), it's not all as straightforwards as your words suggest - the West Bank was (until ceeded in 1988 to a yet-to-come Palestinian state, as a way to extricate itself from conflict with Israel) sovereign Jordanian territory, so Jordan wasn't as hostile to the idea of attacks from its territory as your words suggest.

The PLO were kicked out by the Jordanian king as a way to help safeguard his own political position, rather than because of anything else such as not wanting to allow attacks or to uphold the law.

Was you not joking about the BBC ?

Nope! Most mainstream media news outlets are as bad as each other IMO.

The beeb are probably one of the better UK news broadcasters, but they are by no means impartial when it comes to international reporting.

[Mahdnyw]

If you say so... I thought you was joking...

Why would anyone joke about a subject as serious as this? Grow up oaf!

If you're really interested in debating this subject, then I suggest you go and learn a little bit more and come back with a cogent opinion...until then you're just a troll regurgitating nonsense you heard on TV as truth.

Most supplies going into Gaza is out of date, regardless of where it comes from - it's a big scam IMO!

So while slagging off the BBC as being unreliable... You then back up one of the points in the doc...

WOW...

[oafc0000]

Why are these things mutually exclusive?

And stop keep writing wow, even you cant go through life being this constantly surprised

[llcoolphil]

Next he will be backing up the other claims... or he could just watch the videos from both the Israeli crewe and the ships crewe...

I think he needs to point out why he thinks the doc is wrong instead of just having a rant about the BBC

[Mahdnyw]

I think you need to stop over reacting to a comment about TV companies...

Wow...

and sorry but the BBC is a very good source for information. I don't buy your claim they aren't a decent source. To be frank, I think you are f**king moron for suggesting they aren't a good source. Now feck off.

Unlike you I am informed enough about the situation in that part of the world to make my own decisions on what is going on and don't need a documentary to tell me.

[Mahdnyw]

What I am doing is talking about this one incident... What you seem to be doing is saying sod the facts surrounding this one incident, Israel have been shown to be c**ts in the past so everything they do in every situation I will highlight them as being c**ts.

Now I don't blame you for that but its hardly helpful in determining the rights and wrongs of what happened in this incident. Its just blanket condemnation.

Judges usually restrict the court from knowing about past offences...

[Mahdnyw]

Yes, well this isn't a courtroom and this is a little more serious than armed robbery or fraud...what a stupid comparison.

Go ahead and look at isolated incidents if you want, you'll never see the big picture and will probably never fully understand the world around you
