    LBC lost it's credibility when they sacked SANGITA
  • Why can’t they invite a Palestinian rep to this programme with these guest. If you invite a Zionist then it’s fair to invite a Patestinian too
  • @isay7003
    1. Cut all deplomatic ties. 2. Place full arms embargo. 3. Put sanctions. 4. Arrest and trail all those returning from commiting and had part in this geno. 5. Recognise state of Palestine.
  • @lucasmoreno5330
    The plan was always to push them into Egypt and take Gaza for themselves.
  • How can LBC have any credibility as relevant and not Israeli tools after Sangita . James last man standing no guarantees
  • @user-us4km4je9u
    LBC are hypocrites. Where's Sangita? Just came here to give my thumbs down, i don't watch LBC vids anymore.
  • @rothwellaudio
    Where's Sangita? Were her questions a bit too difficult?
  • @HrvRoy
    cut diplomatic ties. cease all economic assets. the bombing would stop
  • @bashka12345
    Don’t say neither side, Hamas agreed with ceasefire but its Netanyahu that is saying ‘No to ceasefire’ so the reality UK an US should force Israel to accept the ceasefire.
  • @EBNiiJi
    Stop shipping arms and sanctions would do a lot
  • @jimmyjonga8048
    We have a Zionist in the house surrounded by undeclared Zionists. What an objective discussion
  • @user-cb9mk9sm3b
    What about the 'appalling egregious crimes' that have been committed against the Palestinians for decades??
  • @Free12609
    Stop of all supply of weapons to Israel
  • @platinoir
    The idea that you can’t force a country to follow international law is ridiculous. It’s always possible unless it’s isræI. You look at the difference of tone and action between Russia and isræI, and suddenly the hypocrisy is as clear as day.
