One Israeli death is a military victory for Hamas; one Palestinian death is a PR victory.

You’re such a creepy old woman. i know men who had to work with you.Double ugh.
Stick to the rugby old timer.
I wish everyone spouting their anti Israeli vitriol would take the same advice and stick to whatever their expertise is unless their expertise is modern history and politics in the Levant
Shussh!
if that’s your advice to everyone else, then shut your hole about anything that isn’t directly related to your own field of work/study/unemployment, if neither of the preceding.
I wish people would stop thinking George Hook is a rugby expert!
cool – i have an honours degree in history, so that qualifies my disgust at israeli tactics then.
He’s right Israeli can’t win support by military action, but they should have learnt that a long time ago.
That’s not what he said.
Read it again.
They know, they just don’t care.
Errrm, seems true to me citizens.
Ok, enough morons for one day for me..
What’s inaccurate about what he’s said? Absolutely nothing. He’s not even promoting one side or the other.
Eh, he kind of is…
How about saying something positive about something every once in a while. Please.
I can’t wait for the National Gallery to open after its refurbishment. There. Positive.
Nice one, it’ll grow on you.
Sure, it’s ok it’s not like he is talking about actual dead people or anything.
He’s dead right in what he said….Hamas know this and use it to their advantage to the detriment of innocent Israeli’s and Palestinians, the sooner people realise that Hamas are absolute scum the better
Take your own advice there Mr man.
Everyone knows Hamas are scum. Knowing they are scum is not the problem. Empowering scum through counterproductive military actions with horrifically high civilian casualties is the problem.
Hear hear!
Hamas are scum, equally Israel’s the same. They are now actively targeting civilians. The death toll is now 518 Palestinians, almost 100 of those children, while Israel has lost 18 soldiers and 2 citizens.
Uh oh, Helen’s original comments didn’t last long
She was right though
In fairness, though, this is George Hook. Nothing he says should be listened to, never mind considered. The truth is: George very likely doesn’t actually know what that even means – and I’d bet that’s something he overheard earlier today and thought it sounded clever. And that’s probably not exactly what the other person said either. I know the man. He’s a dope.
Don’t forget we’re talking about the man who once said, live on air, “Let’s just call a spade a spade” while discussing what the politically correct term for a non-national was.
