  • Author Douglas Murray has slammed an article labelling English novelist George Orwell as homophobic.
    “None of this stuff is at all unknown - George Orwell in human being, shocker!” he told Sky News Australia host Rita Panahi.
    “This is just an attempt to grab headlines by the author in question.”
    Mr Murray praised George Orwell for contributing some of the most important works of the 20th century, some of the most important journalism and some of the most important fiction.
    "Perhaps as a gay man, maybe I have some privilege to say this - I don’t give a damn that George Orwell didn’t think that gay people were exactly quite the same as, say, himself.
    “I don’t need him to be in total alignment with my views in 2023.”

Demanding that we reject the evidence of our eyes and ears as the Party's final and most essential command. Compelling us to accept that 2+2 is whatever The Party requires. One can see why the left wouldn't want the warnings set forth in 1984 and Animal Farm to be widely known.

    Thank you Douglas, your assessment (on Israel as well as on Spacey) is one of the best I've ever heard on this issue. Let me add: if Israel should have not retained its response, there would be hundred of thousands of dead. Once I backed the Palestinian cause, now, after what happened, no longer. This massacre of civilians sleeping in their houses and the fact that no muslim/woke people condemned it, made me open my eyes. Furthermore, I think now that I was wrong when making the distinction between anti-zionist and antisemitism, actually they are the same.

      @Muljinn ปีที่แล้ว +2

      @7king8debs79 you might want to actually read up on what the conventions *actually* say about proportionality. Short form, not what you think.
      Civilian casualties are expected and allowed in active conflict zones by *state* actors when and *if* the action in question will meet a defined *military* objective and the expected amount of civilian casualties are commensurate to the expected gain. Example: blowing up an entire apartment complex to kill a single Hamas shovel head wouldn’t be acceptable. Blowing up the same complex to kill Hamas’ top military commander, *might* be, especially if there were no better means of eliminating said commander available and his death would severely cripple their operations.
      Incidentally, as a non-state actor, every violent thing Hamas & Co. have done in the last ~50 years is illegal under the Geneva Conventions. That’s a bit overly convenient for state actors in my opinion, but that’s what the rules as written say.

Or are you arguing that Israel should be limited in its response and just deal with the fact that they may sometimes be woman-raped, child-kidnapped, and baby-beheaded?
      What Murray is arguing here is that the nature and degree of Israel's response should not be measured by the barbarity of the initial attack. That Israel's military aims should be measured on their own terms. In this case, taking steps to ensure that Hamas never again has the ability to invade, rape, kidnap, and behead their citizens. It's the same military goal that any country would be entitled to.

      Pro Palestinians are gathering in large numbers thru Australia . We are no longer innocent when people are chanting gass the Jews. Until then I thought we were safe but the plan of marches is deeply disturbing. Antisemitism is alive & well in Australia. I was devastated. But we can’t pretend this isn’t happening. We must take a stand too with peaceful rallies.

    This man should be the leader of the U.K.

      He doesn’t need to be tangled in the webs of politics! By remaining outside government, he can speak freely! 👍
