Mr CairnsI have scanned this article and of course it is blatently anti-Israeli and pro-Palestinian.It would seem that only the Israelis in their defence against attacks from Palestinians have committed genocide, implemented apartheid etc whilst the Palestinians are simply defending themselves.Not sure how the October 2023 genocidal attack by Palestinian terrorists on Israeli women, children and the elderly fits into this analysis.Perhaps you can enlighten us.Oh and don't use the term genocide so casually in your biased attacks on Israelis.You might recall that 6,000,000 Jews were murdered just 80 or so years ago in what was not an instance of self defence but an attempt to eliminate a whole race of people.However you may be too young to know much about this or don't have the intellect to critically read too much recent history.You might also note that the supposed genocide of Palestinians by Israelis if it is such is not being that successful in terms of their population.And it is not the only such activity currently taking place.'The current genocides are a result of ongoing conflicts and human rights violations. Here are some of the ongoing genocides that are currently being reported:Gaza Strip: The ongoing conflict has resulted in a Genocide Emergency, with over 70,100 reported deaths, including both Palestinians and Israelis. The violence has led to near-total collapse of essential services in the region. Sudan: The war between the Sudanese Armed Forces and the RSF has targeted civilians in Darfur, leading to mass killings, widespread rape, and systematic looting. Sri Lanka: The civil war has resulted in a genocide, with a significant number of Tamils killed during the conflict. North Korea: The prison camps have been a site of mass killings, with an estimated 80,000-200,000 prisoners imprisoned and many deaths due to deplorable conditions. China:Since 2014, the government of the People's Republic of China has committed a series of ongoing human rights abuses against Uyghurs and other Turkic Muslim minorities in Xinjiang which has often been characterized as persecution or as genocide. There have been reports of mass arbitrary arrests and detention, torture, mass surveillance, cultural and religious persecution, family separation, forced labor, sexual violence, and violations of reproductive rights.'What is your analysis and views on what is happening in these countries, or are you so antisemitic you can only find it within yourself to criticise Israel ?Please let us know.
