    I've never responded to this poster as far back as I can remember here, and given posts like this, today is no reason to change that practice.

    Nope. Check your facts.
    Egypt blockaded an Israeli port - an act of war.
    Israel reacted to this.

    It's not an act of war.

    So in your world white people says to the native Americans that they are the indigenous people, and they all agree?

    Your argument is is an Arab placed a bomb, so other Arabs at the negotiation table are not committed to peace negotiations.
    That argument contains the fallacy of guilt by association. It's also racist.

    While the Israeli government at the peace negotiations is the same government going forth thieving land by going forth with building settlements during the negotiations. They showed no interests in peace.


    And the reason you don't like to respond, is that I am right.

    The Strait of Tiran is not an Israeli port... In fact, no Israeli flagged ship had passed thru the Straits for 14 months before the closure... and Nasser immediately called for a summit to resolve their issues.

    Get the facts........

    Blocking your own ports is "defending", not blockading.

    However, the Straits of Tiran weren't theirs. Blocking some from international waters is an act of war. Hence the problems brewing in the South China Sea.

    As part of the accords, the PA was the sole representative of the entire "palestinian" people, which means THEY are a unified people, and that the PA is solely responsible for maintaining adherence to the treaty and stopping terrorism.

    Can the IDF send in a unit to massacre 20K arab muslims and claim it was some "rogue" unit, so they and Israel would not be responsible for its actions?

    Can Israel claim the settlers can burn down every village in the West Bank and claim deniability?

    Is that the 3rd grade level " argument" you are bringing to the table here?

    You bring nothing to any thread I see worth responding to, and that will not change my stance regarding you. Ignored, again. [/QUOTE]

    Could the rest of the rational posters just ignore the trolls and those with no arguments, the forum is bad enough as it is, we don't need to feed them with more attention.

    If they are ignored long enough, they will disappear and permeate somewhere else.

    You telling others to "get facts" is as hilarious as it comes.

    Always good advice. OTOH, sometimes I'm curious to know if a poster is just deluded or actually acting on behalf of a foreign power.

    deffo? LOL

    The Straits of Hormuz are in Iranian territorial waters. No doubt you don't have a problem with them closing that off too.

    Note these same posters will then turn around and claim Israel's blockade of gaza is an act of war. Its these types of people that I simply will not engage with; they offer nothing of value.

    All good possibilities. I think some people get the same talking points from the same talking heads on television. Let Sean Hannity or Rachel Maddow say something and it won't be long before we see people parroting the same exact bullshit.

    OTOH, I have no doubt some are paid to be here. Given the idea of "best bang for the buck", unless they are Russian, North Korean or in some other shithole, I doubt it's cost effective for the DNC or RNC to pay very many people to post on small forums.

    Silkworm missiles or pressure on Oman would fix that.

    How about you focus more on the truth instead of assuming you're right without checking.

    You don't know the range of a Silkworm missile? Let me help you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silkworm_(missile)

    It's over twice the distance needed to attack targets in the Strait of Hormuz.

    The strait was blockaded to close the Israeli port.
    Act of war.
    Fact.
