this is the woman who wrote a book called “Londonistan”. Question time is fucked.
Melanie Philips goes off the absolute deep end. Worth a watch, even though it is QT.
Hamas are the UN, UNICEF and the WHO apparently.
She the type of Extremist the Tories are protecting.
Melanie Phillips often pops up on radio 4’s Moral Maze, and she’s always the voice of the conservative right – anti Muslim, anti LGBT, anti secularism. There’s not a single argument she’s made that I agree with.
So it’s no suprise to find out she’s also a Zionist.
Was dying for someone to ask her if she believed, like the Israeli cabinet and Israeli public opinion, that a 12 year old child playing with a fire work to celebrate the end of a religious fast deserved to be executed on the spot.
Because I guarantee you she would have agreed it was, given her insinuation that Israel needs to be protected from 12 year old boys with fireworks who want to commit “another Jewish holocaust. ”
There is a clear void of any humanity in someone who thinks ” us and them ” over seeing women and children and families and charity hospital staff and journalist reporters and aid workers and anyone else outwith their bubble of raw hate being murdered for ‘ their safety .’
The bloody irony of someone like this hard faced heartless auld boot, and so many like her, is that for the entirety of history including everything from the Jewish holocaust to the Balkans to Rwanda and so many other atrocities is the fact that extrication from that basic humanity is a must for a mindset that can commit or condone genocide simply because ” those people ” are ” them .”
The Beeb can’t stop trying to balance reasonable if opposing opinions with vicious fucking lunatics.
