Melanie Phillips deserve double the NOBEL PRIZE for being a morality compass in this insane world.
Morality compass?!! With some of her views she seems to me to be part of the insanity
She’s sick
No, I wouldn't say that. The Nobel prize lost its value the moment Arafat received it. Melanie deserves much more! ❤❤❤
Thank you for explaining the hypocrisy of the liberals. "Soft bigotry" ... great term.
Indeed 😊👍
Huge appreciation to Melanie. Please don’t be intimidated by these bullies.
I stand with Israel from South Africa 🇮🇱🇿🇦
When Melanie Phillips isn't speaking for me, she's speaking about me with 100% accuracy. She really is a prophet.

Wow where’s the source or did they just make it up. For example I can say:
Obama said to his cabinet that supporting china is imperative to preventing the republicans from rising to power
It doesn’t make it true. If Obama’s enemies can make up any quote that he allegedly said without evidence then what has the world come to

@@jjohn408 It was said by someone who wasn't even in the meeting. Politics...
The Palestinians are united by one goal, undoing Israel. Having a state when that is their mindset can be fatal to Israel can be fatal.
Israel's support came from several reasons:
1. Until the Palestinians decide what they want besides being united about destroying Israel. Having different governments under the West Bank and Gaza is a strategic move. So our government can check the water with a proposal for peace every now and then which was never received
2. Hamas is the government in Gaza, improving the Gazans' life was seen as an essential phase in reducing the desire for terror. You can't have the help economy of Gaza without their government.
Obviously, this method failed and now Hamas has to be removed from any position of power in Gaza. Work in progress.
I admire this woman’s integrity and honesty.

@@jjohn408 Lying and spinning fake narratives doesnt help your side anymore. For sure, many buy into it. Even many buy into thinking ''israel'' is behind the establishment, when in fact the establishment is deeply anti-israel (as they are against any strong sense of community and culture, especially if they are strongly pro-morality).
However as more people buy into those false narratives, the contrast between you and those that have morals and who aim for a bright future for all, deepens.
The more obvious the badness of the other side is, the more people will wake up and see this war for what it really is. A war for the very moral survival of humanity, against those that have been slowly corrupting it for many years.
Does God supports genocidal maniacs? Who openly blaspheme the name God and his son Christ. May God give you conscience to see the lies you have been made to believe.
Godspeed 🇮🇱🙏

One reason might just be simple anti semitism. Another, much more complex, is a brainwashing that has been inculcated in children forever. The inculcated mindset Melanie spoke of that infects the left.

Israelis just have this sense that nothing was given to them for free. They worked hard to achieve and build everything in israel. If a new road or building is built they take pride in it. They understand that only by coming together they can thrive🇮🇱🫶

Amazing guest. She understands basic Islam, which can be beautiful, but is in need of reform. No Jew or Christian can do that for them, so we are left with prayer for them, and hard work as a community for us.

Bravo to this lady!
Ah. We have to describe unsuccessful countries as “developing world” countries. We have been assuming “development” happens automatically over time. It turns out, it isn’t automatic, and it takes blood, toil, tears and sweat. And not being misled by false religious ideas. Civilisation is a precious jewel, and a rarity! Few better things we could be doing than fighting for its preservation. Be led by Israel, guys!

Divide and Rule. PM Sharon plan was to divide the Palestinians into 3 groups. GAZA, East Jerusalem and Area A of the West Bank. Gaza was to become an autonomous Singapore and eventual independence. East Jerusalam population annexed to Israel. Area A to become walled Palestinians cities. Palestinians in area B and C moved to Area A and annexed. Hamas in Gaza changed all that. It decided to fight. Is that noble or dumb?

Isntt it a little bit funny when those who warn about the danger of extremists are labeled insane and at the same time we, in the West, give those extremists the insanity label to explain away their t acts
She is still naive. It's not an interpretation it is simply a matter of when they choose to act violently according to the beliefs. The text is the text and cannot be personally interpreted.
MP has been moving from the extreme left to the extreme tight of politics for decades. She has found a home in Israel, where the Government including religious fanatics and self-avowed fascists suits her new mindset.
Melanie's final appeal lands like a half-soliloquy. Those taxi drivers and indeed almost the whole population have, it seems, fallen completely asleep to an absolute cornucopia of pre-requisites for having and being able to defend a fulfilling existence. I don't actually blame the encroaching mass of other-minded people at that point. I blame those who have fallen asleep. They have failed themselves and their children by untold leaps and bounds.
We are in the last days.
What's behind this is the Brits' resentment of the sometimes-violent, sometimes-peaceful campaign by the Yishuv against the British empire in the 1940s and the drive to kick out the Brits and establish a Jewish state. While this is way in the past, it became part of the British collective unconscious and is there just below the surface.

Intelligents Service, that’s a misnomer.
Jesus said this in John 16:2 (NASB20) “They will ban you from the synagogue, yet an hour is coming for everyone who kills you to think that he is offering a service to God.”
I’m a born again Christian, and I believe many Jewish people will recognize Jesus someday as their Messiah. We see the clear threat from those hostile to the Jewish people and continue to pray for the peace of Jerusalem.

According to most Jews in Israel, they believe that the west need to do more for Israel. The US Congress should pay more compensation to Israel for the holocaust.

@jjohn408 and he was right. The army had to contain hamas and guard the wall, and FAILED criminally. The Army did.
Islam at its core is about democratising Abrahamic monotheism and cascading the message that our maker is accessible to all equally. He loves and judges us solely on the basis of the truth and sincerity of our spiritual connection to Him. #God is not a racist.
?
Christianity has a better claim to that
I agree Jesus came with an inclusive monotheism but the Christian claim to his divinity is doctrinally problematic for both Muslims and Jews. In addition Jews reject his pedigree as a Messiah
Islam in its core is toxic,
Islam is great as long as you’re not a woman or a Christian or a Jew
