Ongoing: The Gaza War

2025
Islamic radicals let into Ireland from Gaza

The Irish government, consumed with hatred for Israel, and with no thought for Irish safety, is letting Islamic radicals from Gaza into Ireland.

Asad Abu Sharkh gives a speech in Dublin praising Yahya Sinwar, leader of Hamas, Oct 2024.

Every pro-Israel argument (The Critic article)

I tried to write something different on Israel. I try to lay out every pro-Israel argument (or most of them) in a single article, in dialogue form.
A group of DCU academics make allegations against me, and mobilise to shut down campus Israel debate.

The "research" done by the DCU academics.
They never read what I wrote, they could not spell my name,
and they thought Ibrahim Halawa was a DCU student.
Israel debate, DCU off-campus, 27 March 2024

I spoke in an Israel debate organised by DCU Debate Society.
A group of DCU academics managed to shut down campus debate, so this was run off-campus.
Motion: "This House Believes Israel is more to blame than the Palestinians for the present conflict"

For:
Sean Toner (student)
Ben Watson (student)

Against:
Mark Humphrys (staff)
Jamie O'Mahony (student)

It was one of the most intelligent debates I have ever seen.
Debate on Israel against Hamza Tzortzis, 11 Jan 2024

I debated on Israel and Gaza against Hamza Tzortzis in Belfast on 11 Jan 2024. It was a relaxed, long-format debate. Tzortzis behaved badly, with constant interrupting, topic changes every 10 seconds, name calling and personal abuse. I stayed calm and got across the points I wanted, a world view that people rarely hear. Tzortzis never listened to a word I said.

My opening speech. (7 min)
I address the questions: What was 7 October? What is the current war about? How does this current war end?
See supporting notes for everything I say.



My closing speech. (4 min)
I address the questions: What is the solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict? Is the two-state solution dead? Is there any hope?

Hamas massacre of Israelis, 7 Oct 2023

The climax of 75 years of Arab and Palestinian warfare:
random Israelis - men, women and children - killed on the streets and in their homes, 7 Oct 2023.

Israel debate, Eblana Forum, 27 October 2022

A rare public debate on Israel was held at the Eblana Forum, Dun Laoghaire, on 27 October 2022. I spoke for the Ireland Israel Alliance, against Richard Boyd Barrett, TD.

2021 cancel mob
Umar al-Qadri libels me, Nov 2021
Ibrahim Halawa lies about me, Nov 2021
I am targeted by a cancel mob, Nov 2021

My page on Black Lives Matter makes a long and detailed case against the "Black Lives Matter" movement, which has caused so much damage to America, and to black lives. I support my argument with evidence and statistics.

A cancel mob went hysterical about my page on 22 Nov 2021. They did not construct any arguments or present any evidence. They did not even appear to have read my page.

I leave it here unchanged so you can see it for yourself. There is nothing wrong with it.

I have not apologised. There is nothing to apologise for. I did nothing wrong. I have not deleted my page. I have not edited my page. I have not responded to the mob's anger or demands in any way. I carry on as normal. I am uninterested in the hysterical screaming of people who cannot debate.

To add insult to injury, the viral tweet that started the cancel mob on 22 Nov 2021 was a lie. It had two fake quotes, allegedly from me, but neither of which I ever said. It was the fake quotes that started the firestorm. It wasn't even my website that started it.

This is the viral tweet that started the cancel mob on 22 Nov 2021.
It has two quotes, supposedly from me.
However, both quotes are fake.

The 1st quote is fake:

The 2nd quote is fake too:

There are two quotes and both quotes are fake. In the cancel mob frenzy, with 2,000 likes and 500 retweets, no one asked if the quotes were real. No one cared. A fake screenshot is good enough evidence for most people.

After 18 days lying about me, the above author deleted his tweet.

In reality, I have a detailed and logical analysis of what is wrong with BLM.
BLM has killed 3,000 people.
No one cares.



For both BLM and the Halawa case, I have detailed analysis with sources, links and statistics.
For both cases, the response is screaming soundbite hysteria.

Black Lives Matter riots, May 2020 on

30 people killed in US riots due to anger at fictional "racist" police. Widespread rioting and vandalism. Homes and businesses looted and burned.
Irish election, Feb 2020

25 percent of Irish voters vote for the terrorist party Sinn Fein. Shame on them. People with no morality. People with no right to lecture us about anything from now on.

Banned in Iran: This site is banned in Iran.

Blocked on X by the regressive left and Islamists: I love debate. I love ideas. But the Western left and their friends the Islamic right do not return the favour. Their response to opposing ideas, whether expressed politely or robustly, is often to block. See Who blocks me on X.

I like debate. But I do have rules. See Who I block on X.

Twitter is broken, 2016 to 2022: I am on X (formerly Twitter) at markhumphrys. Twitter was a great place for debate before 2016. You could meet everyone in the world, and argue about ideas. Starting in 2016, Twitter became increasingly broken. It became full of reporting and bans and censorship. In 2019, Twitter even started shadowbanning me for no reason that was ever explained, or could be appealed. By 2022, everyone was looking for a better place to debate.

Twitter is saved, 2022: In 2022 Elon Musk bought Twitter and started to end the censorship. It looks great so far. Twitter (renamed to X) seems to be saved.

Campaigns to silence me: I now have no less than two entries on the Banned List at Academics for Academic Freedom. This is a list of "individuals who were banned from speaking at universities in the UK and Ireland, or faced campaigns to silence them, or sack them for their views." The two campaigns to silence me were the BLM protests in 2021 (unsuccessful) and the Israel debate in 2024 (partially successful, in that it drove the debate off campus).
