I wonder what other horrors will be unleashed while the worlds eyes are on the middle east ?

@BlackAzizAnansi

This sort of thing happens in the UK too, if a young persons hair is more aligned to their culture, and not school hair policy then some end up in isolation.

I really don't see how ones hair style has anyting to do with education

Clearly in a science lab or machine (e.g woodwork, metal work) environment, then hair should be secured. but that is purely and mostly for safety, long hair getting entangled in machinery can cause serious injury or death, however that is a slightly different issue and if explained correctly people understand.

@markhburton

They have NO right or any right to breach international law.

Even if the enemy do that, you maintain the higher ground legally, ethically and morally.

Someone should explain that to Netenyahu perhaps then maybe to sir Keir

@roknrol

Indeed.

@stylinstainless

The ironic thing about that is that both the Torah and quo ran seem to cite the same things, Moses, Jesus (ok he is a prophet in the quo ran) etc,

So in that sense their god is the same entity

In fact doesn't the quo ran suggest there should be respect for other books, something to do with the constitution of Medina ?

I remember when I worked at a school as I lunch time assistant, the kids used to say Miss to me, so my colleague suggested I responded by saying 'not the last time I looked'

Not sure if that would work in 2023, but humor can defuse a situation at times.

But yes, why does gender matter in a lot of professions, you hire the person with the best expertise , experience etc for the job, and it should not be about ticking boxes.

Actions are going to have to speak louder than words,

Give it a few days and the body count in Palestine will reach the 1000s due to lack of water, food, medicine and power by which time it will be too late for many.

@susiemagoo

It will get to the point where no one dares to talk to people in case they unintentionally mis gender someome, get reported, photograpped or filmed and then have their image uploaded to sites like social media with a one sided story

We see a lot of Trial by social media that never seems to actually take in to account what actually happened as those people were never there in the first place.

People are going to just be too terrified to do anything like they are too terrified to challenge kids who are say smashing up a play park or causing other damage.

@stylinstainless

Agreed, Today there is a report on Aljazzera that a father and so n were murdered in the west bank by Isrealis as they took 4 other family members to a funeral.

So long as this sort of terrorism happens it will just strengthen support for Hamas and others.

@stylinstainless

If they did that, I wonder if the US would still stand by Israel or if the whole world would turn against Israel

There is no evidence as far as i know Iran is even behind this, sure they will support Hamas / Palestine but behind the events on Saturday what would they gain from that.
