Are there any polls taken in the last year that show Brexit is still popular? https://www.statista.com/statistics/987347/brexit-opinion-poll/

What kind of election are you referring to? How do these "elected candidates" differ electorally from Sunak?

In fact, it is the prevalent sentiment among voters now. It's called Bregret. I kind of doubt that Farag's reputation sparkles with the same cachet it once did among those once and future red wall voters. His promises and predictions are broken. This is his last hurrah. All he can do now is take the Tories down with him.

Unfortunately, the good doctor's assessment of the low level of support for Hamas, contradicts what polling information there is: "A March 2024 opinion poll by the Palestinian Center for Policy and Survey Research showed support for Hamas among Gazans topping 50 percent, a 14-point rise since December 2023." https://www.foreignaffairs.com/israel/how-hamas-ends-gaza It should also be noted that the Kurds and the Israelis have very warm relations stemming from Israel's support for the Kurds in their struggle to create an independent Kurdistan. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israel–Kurdistan_Region_relations#:~:text=The State of Israel and,missions in each other's territory.

I wasn't aware that there was a unanimous opinion among Christians and Musllims. Here's some polling numbers from the United States: https://www.pewresearch.org/religious-landscape-study/database/views-about-same-sex-marriage/ It looks like, at least among Americans, Muslims are more tolerant on the issue than are evangelical Protestants, Mormons, Jehovah's Witnesses and Black Protestants.

Because they offend God?

What's that got to do with the alternative military strategy you suggest? And, no, international law doesn't give unlimited license to use whatever tactics a military force adopts against an enemy embedded in the local populace.

More making-it-personal nonsense. I guess that's why you don't recognize nonsense like this for what it is:

Clearly, you're in the running for the General George Custer Award.

They should get back to us if and when the illness starts affecting the lungs. If bird flu ever becomes transmissible by air, that could be serious. Fortunately...oh wait a minute... Bird Flu (H5N1) Explained: Third U.S. Dairy Farm Worker Infected With Bird Flu—With New Symptoms Another human case of bird flu has been detected in a dairy farm worker in Michigan—though the cases aren’t connected—and this is the first person in the U.S. to report respiratory symptoms connected to bird flu, though their symptoms are “resolving,” according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. https://www.forbes.com/sites/ariannajohnson/2024/05/30/bird-flu-h5n1-explained-third-us-dairy-farm-worker-infected-with-bird-flu-with-new-symptoms/?sh=5f9509815d18

You keep on repeating the same claim, but when I offer evidence in reply you disregard it. Just saying the same thing over and over doesn't make it true.

A wise move on your part. Since when it comes to the past 57 years, the truth is not going to be your friend.

Do you understand I wrote "that truth" not "the truth" and what that difference signifies?

So, you think that there's no significant statistical connection between local elections and general elections. The Tories just happened to suffer a major loss because of ??????????

I mean decently as regards, say, the last 57 years or so.

Once your words are written, you don't get to be the final arbiter of what they mean. As for truth, as a general proposition the ruth matters. But the discussion was about motivation. And as I have repeatedly pointed out, Muslims have plenty of motivation for rage, regardless of their rejection of the truth that Hamas massacred Israeli civilians.

More of the same. And mindreading too.

Maybe you take no interest in what your government does. If that's the case, there's no point in trying to explain why others do.

We'll never know how the world would have regarded Israel had it treated Palestinians decently.

Well, to Americans that might make a difference.

Keep up the mindless accusations. All it signifies is that you've still got nothing.

Nice try. It's obvious that we were referring to not truth in general but 2 different truths. Yours, the facts of the Hamas massacre of Israeli civilians. Mine the brutal treatment of Palestinians by Israel.

Explanations aren't the same thing as excuses.

Please there was plenty of anger and denunciation being levelled at the Saudis. Admittedly, little of it came from the political right. And possibly the reason that the Israeli case draws more ire is that despite its relatively small population, in absolute terms Israel receives more foreign aid from America than does any other country.
