I didn’t suggest anyone here is a paid lobbyist, I said Israel has put a lot of effort into stymieing criticism. Which they do. I don’t think it’s healthy for this to be the only taboo topic on the forum.

Yet you made the point.
There are plenty of places to debate Middle Eastern politics outside of a Tottenham Hotspur forum (and probably with a lot more knowledgeable debaters).
Pretty much all I see I here are crude arguments based on identity. I reckon I can probably identify every poster’s demographic based on their contribution to this shitshow.
When the thread was first closed down, the pious, never able to take a hint, moved the argument to the ‘Finance, War’ thread and are still trying to score points here.
But, for better or worse, this place is who we discuss things with on a daily basis. It’s no more polarising than other threads like Brexit etc. Nobody’s forcing you to open the thread. And

can sun bin anyone who’s abusive.
I have the thread on ignore. I wanted to take a shower upon leaving it.
It’s one of two I have on ignore yet it doesn’t stop people bleeding their opinions on the subject of these threads into others as you’ve demonstrated.
It generates an enormous amount of ill will between fellow fans as the cards demonstrate.
Nailed it.
Some don't want to "debate".
They only want it open to force their opinions and score points against others.
Or just fuck off and discuss it elsewhere as I suggested
If the thread was re-opened here, God forbid, then the same crap will be regurgitated by the same posters
Yes you could say to people like me that I shouldn’t open it but that’s not the point especially as I’ll get tagged by certain posters
More anti Semetism and here we go again
Are you trying to get this thread shut down as well?
There’s something wrong with you….
What the fuck are you clucking on about. Your inane shit is bad enough but when it's unintelligible too it's really fucking tedious.
A poster declared a few days ago that anyone that disagrees with him should pm him to link up to fight and that post got 5 likes.
What exactly can

do in that situations? he closed the thread as he should to stop things escalating.
The problem with this place (and most forums tbh) is that people can't take an individual post for what it is and instead focus on the poster so instead of fully reading and understanding what the poster says in that specific post they will jump on the post and hit the dislike/disagree or whatever.
In that specific scenario I mentioned above the 5 likes were all from posters that agreed with the posters opinion in the earlier debate. So instead of focusing on the fact that an absolute helmet is telling people on a football forum to pm him to meet up to fight they are more focused on the fact that they agree with his initial opinion hence that overrides his isolated post about meeting up to fight "cunts".
As long as people share the the same opinion they're good...pack mentality..unfortunately the way of the world.

Two of whom are in here complaining about the thread getting abusive, while one of them ticks a post by the other telling someone to fuck off.
No coincidence that the people advocating shutting down debate are the most abusive and least able to debate.

There's one poster that bleats about wanting to "debate".
When, in reality, they only want to try and force their views on others, and then copy and paste Hamas propaganda.
Like I said before, anyone can say "I feel bad for both sides, it's a tragedy", but if their every post condones only one side and criticises the other it's safe to say that their words are bullshit and that they have an agenda.
Another problem is some posters deliberately misquoting people to further their agenda
dudu
pulled one up the other day
There aren’t enough good faith debaters here on many topics. They’ll deny historical fact if it refutes their doctrine.
And then squeal when they’re pulled up on it!
Link?
I'm not searching for The Fighting Cock on Youtube or anywhere else.
I wouldn't know.Another problem is posters who keep forcing their opinion on people, even when that opinion is proven to be bullshit, isn’t that rightstevee .
You're the one that copy and pastes stuff that explicitly states that your opinion is bullshit.
