Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust
So, it's not about some rich people being Jewish but just about them being rich? Or do you believe that rich Jewish people behave differently from other rich people?

Vietnam pilot who disregarded direct order gets Medal of Honor
More "perhaps" nonsense? First it was "wandered off" now it's "scurried away"? How about he walked away because of the demands of his office? And I'm still waiting for you to point out what in that video that showed that the recipient of the Medal of Honor felt humiliated.

Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust
On the other hand, comparisons to South Africa are becoming more and more apt. Israel imposing apartheid on Palestinians, says former Mossad chief A former head of the Mossad intelligence agency has said Israel is imposing a form of apartheid on the Palestinians, joining a growing number of prominent Israelis to compare the occupation of the West Bank to South Africa’s defunct system of racial oppression. But Tamir Pardo’s views will have added impact because of the high regard for Mossad in Israel and because they come at a time when far-right members of Israel’s government are moving to kill off any prospect of an independent Palestinian state. Pardo told the Associated Press that Israel’s mechanisms for controlling the Palestinians, from restrictions on movement to placing them under military law while Jewish settlers in the occupied territories are governed by civilian courts, matched the old South Africa. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/sep/06/israel-imposing-apartheid-on-palestinians-says-former-mossad-chief#:~:text=Pardo told the Associated Press,state here%2C” he said.

Trump vows to end ‘madness’ of EV push
You've managed somehow to entirely miss the point. If a disproportionately higher percentage of 18-24 year olds turn out than previously and they tend to favor one party over the other more than what the total average is, that changes the electoral math. What about that don't you understand?

Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust
If you're saying his lie that Germans killed millions of Jews because they were money lenders is true, that makes you an antisemite. If you're saying that his lie is justified because Israel is a Jewish state, that also makes you an antisemite. Generally, I find when someone is being cagey as you are here and doesn't come right out and say it, antisemitism is the reason. But, please, go ahead and prove me wrong. Share with us what your thinking cap tells you.

Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust
I agree that the Palestinians have been treated very unjustlly. It's a disgrace. But what does that have to do with Abbas making antisemitic comments?
-
Outrage over Abbas's antisemitic speech on Jews and Holocaust
Certainly the Palestinians have been badly mistreated and still are. There's no good excuse for the brutal way the Israelis have treated them. That said, such a comment by Abbas was really stupid. I don't see how it does anything but hurt their cause.

Court decriminalises abortion across Mexico
Well, I don't think that's exactly the case. Yet. Idaho did pass a low that criminalized aiding a minor to get an abortion out of state. Which probably won't pass a Constitutional challenge. But I don't think it's yet been criminalized for women to travel out of state to get an abortion. Anyway, it's good news for women in Texas who want an abortion, particularly for those living in South Texas. And really bad news for the anti-abortion movement.

India changing its name ? India or Bharat? G20 invitations throw up question dating back centuries
By itself, this usage might seem perfectly innocent. But you're not taking into account the virulent Hindu nationalist policies of the current Indian government.

Vietnam pilot who disregarded direct order gets Medal of Honor
More nonsense from you. No, Biden didn't "wander off". He walked in a straight line to exit the ceremony. Looked purposeful to me. No divagation that I could spot. But even worse is your face reading allegation. Can you please point to what moment in the ceremony this guy looked completely embarrassed? Here's a link to a video so you can point out the moment and share with us how has face changed expression.

Trump vows to end ‘madness’ of EV push
Actually, it's you who's doing the cherry picking. You arbitrarily chose a point in time that would create an image of a massive fall. Why not choose a starting point of 5 years ago? Or even 3? Had you chosen a starting point 3 years ago, Tesla stock would show a 100% price increase.

Trump vows to end ‘madness’ of EV push
You just don't get it. If, in the past a group has voted at a much lower rate than previously, and now votes at a disproportionately higher rate, that changes the electoral math. It's such a simple idea to grasp, I don't understand why you reject it.

Climate change: July set to be world's warmest month on record
The difference between your use of that phrase and mine is that I always give a justification for using it. You just use it as an empty taunt. You have still offered no evidence to back up the validity of comparing gun manufacturers to oil companies. That's because you truly have nothing.

I frequently back up my claims against your false. And you know what happens every time? You evaporate. You don't even have the courtesy to acknowledge my correctiona.

You're the one who likened gun manufacturers to oil companies. It's up to you to prove that it's valid.

You claimed that there was scientific evidence to support this belief. I never disputed that it was believed.

Please provide a link to a credible source to back up your assertion.

This links to evidence supporting your speculations about pre-history? Can you point out to me what specific reference in the article specifies this?

When you come with a thing called actual evidence, let me know.
