Goh Meng Seng protest against Israel at Hong Lim Park

I must give credit to GMS for standing up to what he believes.
However, Mr Goh, dun be too simple minded. The Palestine-Israeli issue is not about Israel bullying the Palestine. It goes both ways. Are you also going to tell Hamas to quit those shelling of Israel and the terrorist attacks?

Israel extends Gaza ceasefire, but Hamas resumes rocket fire
GAZA CITY, Palestinian Territories: Israel said on Sunday (July 27) it was extending a lull in its devastating military operation in Gaza for another 24 hours, but Hamas said it would not do likewise after resuming rocket fire at the end of mutually agreed 12-hour ceasefire on Saturday (July 26).
Israel's cabinet "approved the UN request regarding a humanitarian ceasefire to run until midnight (2100 GMT) Sunday", an Israeli government official told AFP on condition of anonymity late Saturday.
Hamas reacted in a statement that "no humanitarian ceasefire is valid without Israeli tanks withdrawing from the Gaza Strip and without residents being able to return to their homes and ambulances carrying bodies being able to freely move around in Gaza".
The armed Palestinian group fired rockets at central and southern Israel immediately after the expiry of the 12-hour ceasefire Saturday both sides had abided by. Israel's Iron Dome missile interception defences knocked some out of the sky and no casualties were reported.
Israel's unilateral decision to continue the ceasefire signalled a pause in its assault on Gaza which since July 8 has killed more than 1,000 Palestinians. Over the same period, 42 Israeli soldiers deployed into Gaza have been killed, according to the latest military toll. Three civilians in Israel also died.
The deadly confrontation spurred calls from around the world for both sides to extend the ceasefire to enable negotiations for a longer-term truce. US Secretary of State John Kerry met European and Middle Eastern foreign ministers in Paris on Saturday (July 26) to push both sides to extend the temporary cessation of hostilities.
Israel agreed to extend its ceasefire for four hours, and then announced the 24-hour prolongation to late Sunday.
"We all call on parties to extend the humanitarian ceasefire," France's Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius told reporters in Paris after the meeting with Kerry and counterparts from Britain, Germany, Italy, Turkey and Qatar, as well as an EU representative.
A spokesman for the United Nations (UN) chief said in a statement Ban Ki-moon "urgently appeals once again to all parties to declare a seven-day humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza".
GRIM RECOVERY OF BODIES
During Saturday's (July 26) 12-hour ceasefire, medics digging through the remains of hundreds of Gaza homes uncovered at least 147 bodies.
On the ground, Palestinian ambulances sped into Gaza neighbourhoods that have been too dangerous to enter for days. Palestinians ventured onto Gaza's streets after the truce began, some eager to check homes they had fled, others to stock up on supplies. In many places they found devastation: buildings levelled, entire blocks of homes wiped out by Israeli bombardment.
In northern Beit Hanun, the hospital was badly damaged by shelling, and AFP correspondents saw the charred body of a paramedic. There were similar scenes in Shejaiya, where stiff bodies lay on the floor of a room in one building, one caked in dried blood, all of them covered in dust.
‘HUMANITARIAN WINDOW’
East of southern Khan Yunis, residents hesitated to enter the Khuzaa neighbourhood, saying Israeli forces remained inside the border area. And in nearby Bani Suheila, where 20 people were killed in a single Israeli air strike shortly before the truce began, women and children wept as they discovered their homes destroyed.
Hamas and Israel agreed to Saturday's "humanitarian window", after Israel's security cabinet on Friday night rejected a US proposal for a seven-day truce during which the two sides would negotiate a longer-term deal.
Speaking after the rejection, at a news conference in Cairo with UN chief Ban, Kerry said Israel and Hamas "still had some terminology" to agree to on a ceasefire, but added they had a "fundamental framework" on a truce.
The two sides remain at odds over the shape of a final agreement to end the fighting, however.
Hamas says any truce must include a guaranteed end to Israel's eight-year blockade of Gaza, while in Israel there are calls for any deal to include the demilitarisation of the Gaza Strip.
HUGE CIVILIAN TOLL
The situation in Gaza has created tensions in the West Bank, where protests against Israel's role in the conflict erupted after Friday prayers and again early Saturday, with a total of eight Palestinians shot dead by Israeli soldiers and settlers.
International concern has mounted over the civilian toll in Gaza. Rights groups say about 80 per cent of the casualties have been civilians. UNICEF, the UN agency for children, has said 192 children have been killed during the latest conflict so far.

GMS looks like a cardboard cut out
You are another one. It is not as simple as you think. Blaming solely on the Palestinians is also unfair!
i support Israel anytime.
In fact, Israel shows too much restraint; considering the firepower they have. They should do a Japanese shook ching to wipe out all elements of Hamas.
Hamas would not have so much mercy if the tables were turned.
GMS - you look like a fool; thank god you didnt win the last GE

I am totally against Palestinians.
life is not fair. Deal with it!
Aye aye Captain ! Isn't it obvious ?
:o
:o
I agree. But at least he has the balls to do it publicly. Unlike our resident Foreign Trash, Tonychat who ask other to protest while he just KPKB behind his PC!
The israelis enhancing the lessons they learned under Hitler.
Instead of incinerators, the israelis use white phosphorus shells to burn the arab children
Pity Hitler did not complete the extermination of the fucking jews and turn them all into good soap bars.
like that ah..............
then next time you guys take a plane, make sure you're not on same flight as GMS.................otherwise sure crash one............

You really got a cb mouth....what have Arab children/Israelites Jews done to you to curse that this bad....
Your mother cheebye is in my mouth. After I tieu her until her cheebyehoifar I got to lick it it to make it better. She beg and beg me to do so as she go into 7th heaven that your father got no chance of bringing her to.
This below is what the fucking israelis are doing to the Arab children.
Let arms and rockets flow to into Gaza so that the Arabs can fight israelis with equivalent armaments, and not just home made rockets and guns against white phosporus shells and helicopter gunships and tanks
See and wank to what the Arabs in Gaza are eating from the jews
The first casualty of war is always the truth.
Israel uses missiles to protect its civilians while Hamas uses civilians to protect its rockets stockpile. The tactic for hamas is simply to use civilians and civilian infrastructures as human shield to stockpile their weaponry and as base to fire rocket indiscriminately at Israeli cities inviting Israel to respond. And when civilians get kill as a result of defensive response from IDF, Hamas will use this these cases as showpiece for propaganda in order to turn world's opinion against Israel. After all the pictures of child corpses is a very powerful tool to sway opinions.
The actions of the likes of GMS in blaming Israel for every mishap doesn't in anyway help the situation but only serve to encourage Hamas to continue using civilians as human shield because the tactic works. They are equally as guilty as Hamas and got blood stain in their hands.
