May God forgive them. What would Jim Royle say on an Easter Monday."

In response, the IDF tweeted: "The only marvellous thing here are your lies. These are not IDF soldiers. Apologies would be in order."

"I am sorry for sharing a post which purports to show the IDF hurting children but it was in fact the Guatemalan Army," Morris tweeted later. "My error demonstrates the dangers of fake news online and I will be more diligent in future in checking my sources."

However, he justified himself to one Twitter user by claiming: "There are lots of verifiable documented examples of the IDF abusing Palestinian child prisoners I have seen for myself in court in the West Bank....

I noticed he didn’t seem to want to roast the Venezuelan Army with such vigor.

Labour under Corbyn are marxist, anti-western scum. Unfortunately the Tories are so useless they are being abandoned by vast swathes of their core supporters in favour of Nigel Farage’s Brexit Party and UKIP because of their betrayal of Brexit so Corbyn, abbhorent as he is, is likely to win the next election by default. We may yet have Corbyn become Prime Minister of a nation he despises and chumming up to its enemies whom he is instinctively drawn towards, as are many of his MPs like this one.

So in other words, it was “fake but accurate”?
If that’s his idea of an apology, he can stuff it. He had his opinion, and cared only to find “evidence” that would reinforce it.

Funny, isn’t it, that all the lies about Israelis always seem to match up perfectly with the lies told about Americans.

Thanks Eleutheria5. When Canturbury and Westminster are destroyed by jihadists in the next few months or years, the silly bastard will be blaming Britons, Christians, and Jews.

Very true. The likely result of Brexit will be Corbyn winning the PM-ship. That will put a nail in the coffin of the UK. Even the leftist SNP despise Corbyn.
