SueC: No, I don't think we can agree that all the rape "stories were basically hasbara". Contrary to what you seem to believe ..
You think that I believe that:
.. Israeli claims of mass rape by Hamas were correct and should be taken as absolute truth
Whaat. I never said that. For info, I haven't the time or energy to link to your past comments but do have some memory re your past statements (as commented by other posters in the thread).
I find it astonishing that you make claims like this:
Anyone who has followed Islamist attacks on civilians in other parts of the world knows how often the mutilation of bodies, genital mutilation and the taking of body parts feature.
Tarring with that terrorist brush all Muslims is Islamophobia. SueC please consider that there are more than a billion Muslims on our planet. They .. are .. not all .. terorrrist. Can we please agree on that, at least. Such conflation is so dodgy it almost forces me to dismiss your comments entirely.
As it happens I bungled the second comment - not constructed correctly:
t: Do you not also agree that you were somewhat over-cautious on joining in with Gaza genocide condemnations because .. you do .. not to trust Palestinians or should I say Hamas? .. this from the thread.
SueC: Again, unfortunately, we can't agree. I most definitely do not trust Hamas. In war, ALL sides lie. This shouldn't be a contentious statement. Hamas is, first and foremost, an Islamist movement - it advocates a highly repressive ideology and it astonishes me that people on this board seem to think it's some sort of progressive for ..
What I meant to say is that you considered that going to pro-Palestine demos was dangerous and one should desist. Look up what you said please. Again, I find this preposterous and shan't even comment on it.
Is there anything else about my views I can help you with?
Thanks for the offer, it is unlikely that you can help without clearing up the issues I have raised.
