You’d have to define ‘a rant’ IA before I could see if the cap fits. I referenced facts re the news reporting and the barbarism I quoted was only a small part of the savagery which Hamas perpetrated.
The gleeful eagerness with which so called evidence of Israel’s crimes is met in the wider sphere ..and to some extent on this forum .. whilst minimising Hamas’ clearly stated and thoroughly demonstrated murderous intent is dispiriting and sickening. You mistake my general respectful tone and politeness for ‘a velvet glove.’ I don’t want to drift into the endless and near abusive wrangling that so many discussions seem to deteriorate into. I like to be respectful and try to see where others come from. But I ain’t wearing no gloves on this one.
A further observation would be that some posters are engaging in a form of serial ‘baiting’ to draw a response .. I’m not sure what satisfaction it gives but we humans draw comfort from some strange places.
