Some years ago they were stopping more than 2 border runs on visa exempt in one year, if I remember correctly. Seems they have eased up on that. I was so concerned about denials on going out and straight back in that I spent a couple of days in Penang, with an O visa.

Why is he reported as an israeli? What difference does his nationality make?

Meanwhile in israel, those fine upstanding human beings, the settlers, have been destroying aid destined for starving Gazans. I'd describe them, but it'd be deleted. Of course the IDF were no where to be seen, which means it's approved by netanuahu. https://www.theguardian.com/world/article/2024/may/13/total-outrage-white-house-condemns-israeli-settlers-attack-on-gaza-aid-convoy The White House has condemned an attack on an aid convoy heading to Gaza by Israeli settlers who threw packages of food into the road and set fire to the vehicles. Video of the incident on Monday at Tarqumiya checkpoint, west of Hebron in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, showed settlers blocking the trucks and throwing boxes of much-needed supplies on the ground. Photographs from the scene showed piles of damaged aid packages and drifts of rice and flour across the road. Late on Monday, photos began circulating on social media showing the trucks on fire.

I was at the supermarket today, but nothing with "dill" in the name. I guess gherkins will have to suffice.

Yummy. It's still food, even if not attractive at that stage, and it all comes out the same way as the finest chef prepared Cordon Bleu.

I haven't had abs for about 30 years ( I used to have some pretty good ones back then ). I can see where they would be if I had any, so does that count?

Nice try but no cigar. https://www.google.com/search?q=were+the+ancient+greeks+aware+of+britain&client=firefox-b-d&sca_esv=73778d81cd87c189&sca_upv=1&ei=rxRDZr7YGqPv2roP6bu9sA8&ved=0ahUKEwj-64eT0YyGAxWjt1YBHeldD_YQ4dUDCBA&oq=were+the+ancient+greeks+aware+of+britain&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiKHdlcmUgdGhlIGFuY2llbnQgZ3JlZWtzIGF3YXJlIG9mIGJyaXRhaW5IAFAAWABwAHgAkAEAmAEAoAEAqgEAuAEMyAEAmAIAoAIAmAMAkgcAoAcA&sclient=gws-wiz-serp What did the ancient Greeks call Britain? Albion Albion, the earliest-known name for the island of Britain. It was used by ancient Greek geographers from the 4th century bce and even earlier, who distinguished “Albion” from Ierne (Ireland) and from smaller members of the British Isles. The Greeks and Romans probably received the name from the Gauls or the Celts.

Trump doesn't listen to anyone, which is why I like him. He isn't going to be sucked into the Washington snake pit swamp. After his first time as POTUS I trust him not to be starting any wars, which excuses all his myriad faults.

No, and I said as much on this forum way back when Trump was only thinking about it. If it's a contest between 2 geriatric men with huge problems, mentally and physically, it behooves me to want the less deranged one to win, and more than anything else, I don't want Harris anywhere near the big chair.

Probably. I still want him to win if Biden is his opponent. Trump is entertaining while Biden is a boring drag.

Perhaps Watters doesn't like Trump. Anyway, we all know that Trump likes to exaggerate his crowd size, but as long as he wins in November it doesn't matter.

They do because Pfizer is an experimental vaccine that didn't go through the normal regime of testing. People don't like being lab rats. I have the flu vaccine every year, so it's nothing against vaccinations.

I don't think your fist is going to come out my computer screen, so what am I supposed to be scared of? If I thought praying was going to make Trump POTUS I'd be on my knees till election day.

Did you get your quotes mixed up? I never said that about NATO.

Don't insult me. I was a nurse, not a health care professional. I never wasted 3 years of my life in university to get a piece of paper to be one. I did it the proper way by being a student nurse in a hospital. BTW, They would have sacked me as I refused to get Pfizer and it took ages to get the Astra version ( neither work though ).

He's less a devil than Joe.

My sense of humour is fine. I love the Goons. When you post something intended to be humerous, but which looks like it is meant seriously it's a good idea to include a hint that it is tongue in cheek, like a smiley. It's quite normal on here for the Trump haters to claim that he is going to destroy the planet. I assumed that your post was such.

Bit like Joe then, but without talking to dead people, or falling over.

They don't. They just hate the Dems enough to do so. Trumps sycophantic sucking up to israel is my only problem with Trump. Leaving that aside his policies are more aligned to what I'd like to see happen than Joe's. Crack down on illegals, end the Ukraine war, abandon the man made climate change BS and promoting EVs that are polluting to make and get rid of. Mainly not starting any more wars.

I'd feel happier about the tories demise if Starmer wasn't going to be the PM with his shower of a party. I'll never forgive labour for what they did under that vile warmonger blair.

While I consider that a huge exaggeration, I meant that the response would be mega times more than anything done before. All Russia has to do is send hundreds of drones over the border to use up Ukraine's limited stock of anti air missiles, then more against little to no opposition to destroy Ukraine cities like never before. Escalation is a battle Ukraine will not win IMO. Putin has nothing to lose by really pounding Ukraine- what are they going to do- issue another arrest warrant?

Hamas supports an end to the occupation, illegal land theft by settlers, collective punishment, and generally bad behaviour by israelis against Palestinians, which has been going on since 1947. While they would like a ceasefire I doubt if "peace" is a priority for them. Welcome to the forever war.

Sorry if you are not capable of understanding the comparison. I'll spell it out for you. An oppressed people will always fight back by whatever means they can, and will never give up. The English ( equivalent israeli ) were too strong militarily for the Irish ( equivalent Palestinian ) to win, but they kept rebelling against the English till the English saw the light and made peace ( Good Friday agreement ). Do you realize approximately 250 years ago if the American rebels didn't have guns we would still be British? Strange thing to say. The Americans ( equivalent Palestinians ) fought against the better armed British ( equivalent israelis ) and won. Perhaps in the future history will repeat itself in Palestine.

It's not a good change though

It's certainly back and just as annoying as before on the left side obstructing the star that I click on to go to last post on a thread. It was on the right side before, but I guess that wasn't annoying enough.
