Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Your username and joindate make me think you're trolling. You are one twisted individual.
    It wouldn't take much for Boards admin to to an IP address check to see whether this indidual is trolling under different profiles.

    In this particular instance, the poster in question is a sitebanned re-reg and sock-puppet. In general, though, please report possible trolls rather than discuss it on thread.

    moderately,

    Not a hope, you can be sure any truthful footage taken by press photographers, camera crew and unarmed civilians were promptly destroyed along with having their expensive camera equipment stolen.

    that by itself is our best argument though. One that has to be repeated over and over: where is the missing footage, and what was in it.

    I don't think it is tbh. If the UN were going to step in with a resolution there would be word of it by now. And even if they did, the US would veto it.. like they've vetoed Israeli / Palestinian resolutions since 1972. With Iran likely to involve itself now, any hope of the US having a change of heart is gone.

    The US would hold fast even if there was a video of people being executed on that boat. That was never on the cards.

    But remember, that many Arab states do still have decent relations with Israel. Egypt and Turkey for example. We could see a shift there.

    Erdogan is partly pushing this as strongly as he is in order to gain votes if he goes for a snap election, criticising Israel to inflame his islamic supporters is what wrestlers would call "cheap heat".

    Egypt dosen't want to do anything to help hamas so they will most likely make some disapproving gesture and end up doing nothing.
