  1. And yet Palestinians exist, in their own land. Getting rid of them isn’t an option. Or maybe am I reading the news wrongly?
  2. Righty-o: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/countries-that-recognize-palestine
  3. How does that give Israel the right to deny Palestinians their inalienable right to self determination in their own state and moreover for Israel and the United States to evict Palestinians from their homeland?
  4. The two most prominent nations opposing the two state solution are Israel and Iran. Edit: Text highlighted for clarity.
  5. Have we forgotten his wife’s vandalism of the rose garden already?
  6. Moreover, Project 2025 is now in play. You’ll recall the pre-election denials.
  7. I’m not sure what brought that particular thought to your mind, but it doesn’t seem to be anything healthy.
  8. I don’t ever try to speak for most people. I do know a vociferous few, often buy to let landlords, grumble a lot and there are those who are still a bit ‘salty’ over the ejection result. Give it time. April will see increases in the minimum wage, increases in pensions and increases in NHS and Education spending roll out. What’s going on in the US will put the final nail in the rightwing fantasy of a trade deal with the U.S. ever saving the UK from the self harm inflicted by the Tory BREXIT. It ought also to end the self abusive belief in the UK of the ‘special relationship’ with the U.S. being anything other than the U.S. doing as it pleases and the UK doing as it’s told. I say ought.
  9. We obviously hear the opinions of different people. I would be interested to hear views expressed v news source preference.
  10. Did you read the OP? The last referral was closed 3 years before the killer committed his heinous attack.
  11. The Home Office report concluded that officers dismissed the threat he posed on three separate occasions between December 2019 and April 2021, largely due to basic errors, including spelling mistakes. Remind me who was Home Secretary at the time these strings of referrals were made?
  12. How about a review of the tax loopholes being used by all corporations conducting online business in the UK? No need to pick on the Chinese, deal with all of them in one go.
  13. The decline of reporting standards at the once great Telegraph is sad to witness. From day one of this Labour Government the Telegraph’s campaign to ferment public frustration has been growing, and shows no sign of abating.
  14. Not quite. I have in the past absolutely accused you of lying when you made statements, always grossly prejudiced, that were lies. And then only after giving you multiple opportunities to back up or withdraw your false statements. I don’t care if you believe me, I have banked the rewards. Now back to the topic of discussion please.
  15. Firstly I’m not pretending anything. Secondly you seemed to miss the point I was making to a member who was claiming his time spent in the region gave his remarks some authority. Try not to judge the life experiences of others on the basis of the limits of your own. ‘Middle East experience’ has played a part in ‘feathering the nest’ of many a westerner living a comfortable life in Thailand, I’m surprised you were not aware of this fact. Now back to the topic please.
  16. Yes the same ICC subject to a counter attack.
  17. Your expertise on the view within the region is in stark contrast to the statements made this week by the Government’s of Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia. The radical approach is stop the tail wagging the dog and give tge Palestinians their inalienable rights to self determination in their own Palestinian state.
  18. Not yet it hasn’t. The cure r conflict has renewed international support.
  19. Theirs isn’t a difference t consensus, other than the two state solution.
  20. Having lived and worked in the region for many years I’d be surprised if any locals voiced their opinions in the matter to you. Yes the restructuring needs to start with recognition of the Palestinian State. That’s the internationally accepted solution.
  21. The most likely outcome of this offensive Trump proposal is to inflame hardcore anti-Israel factions within neighboring Arab and Muslim majority states.
  22. How about asking the Palestinians what they think about foreigners deciding their fate and the fate of their homelands?
