The USA has called Israels bombing of a United Nations school as 'appalling', which is, considering the USA's normal blind allegiance, for electoral purposes, to Israel, as close to calling the bombings war crimes as you will get. However Prime Minister Cameron has refused to condemn Israel at all, calling only for a ceasefire and for Hamas to stop the rocket attacks. This is a man, who a few months ago could not wait to get into the Middle East ( Syria) and kill some Arabs, yet suddenly he becomes reticent when atrocities are being committed by a so-called 'friendly nation'. This is hypocrisy in all its turgid swamp like form.
Not only does Cameron busy himself with political expediency, but also the Tories have claimed to be outraged and have criticised the Leader of the Opposition, who also happens to be Jewish, Ed Miliband, of politicking, when he accuses Cameron of failing to speak up against Israel's aggression.The only response to that is 'pot, kettle.kettle, pot'.
Cameron is responsible for speaking up for the people of Britain. The majority of people in Britain are outraged and disgusted at the daily atrocities being committed by the Israeli Defence Force. The killing of children, running in fear on a beach, is a war crime. The murder of hundreds of civilians is atrocious and unacceptable. Cameron should be speaking in the interests of the British people not in the interests of the bloody Tory party! He seems more concerned about what the Conservative Friends of Israel think rather than the people of Britain.
Cameron has called for a ceasefire.Everybody wants a ceasefire, that's bleeding obvious. Hamas stopping the rocket firing will achieve this but it is just a short term solution to a problem that will only be resolved by politicians having the bravery to speak out. Jaw jaw is the only solution, not war, war.
Hamas are considered as terrorists, but so were the American revolutionaries, Gandhi, the Jews involved in the Warsaw uprising, Nelson Mandela and Jesus.

Pass the Parcel Cronyism.
The new head of Ofsted ( The Education Inspectorate) was due to be Tory party donor David Ross. Now it is David Hoare, Trustee of AET, the largest chain of academies. No conflict of interests there then?
Wreath Row.
A row is brewing on social networks about the wreath laying ceremony to commerate the fallen of the first world war. Apparently The leader of the Oposition, Ed Milliband, had a rather perfunctory message on his wreath saying " from The Leader of the Opposition" whereas The Prime Minister had written a personal message. Miliband is being heavily criticised for his seemingly cold message whereas Cameron is being congratulated for his compassion.
However, rather interestingly, when you dig deeper you uncover a very different story. It appears that Miliband was handed the wreath seconds before he was due to lay it, as was The Deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg, who had a similar perfunctory message whereas Cameron was allowed time to write a personal message.
You get a distinct feeling that someone decided to try and make political capital out of a ceremony commemorating the dead of the first world war. It obviously wasn't Labour or the Liberal Democrats so I wonder who it was. It has the reek and stench of a certain Australian mongrel about it.
