COVID is a respiratory virus, just like flu. I have flu and COVID boosters every year, and don't understand why people get their knickers in a twist.

 

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.

The literal minded cannot see a joke  and he is probably scared that my joking may actually come true🤣😂 So he tries to shut down any horrid people who scare him 'cos God might take notice and think "what a good idea l, I think I'll make it happen" 🤣😂 he's probably in church now praying for forgiveness and asking the lord to have mercy on us poor sinners and grant Trump the presidency. 

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.

Good you're not a health care professional anymore. Spreading this nonsense ....

You have 1 statement correct though, "Smallpox vaccine worked as it stopped the disease in vaccinated people.".

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 ).

Oh get a life and a sense of humour and take your god bothering puerile insults elsewhere

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.

The silence is deafening!

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.

Specifically, what does ancestors, English and 600 years have to do with Israel and Palestinians?

 

Do you realize approximately 250 years ago if the American rebels didn't have guns we would still be British?

 

 

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.

Where did it go? Was here this morning, and now it is gone. Not on the left or right.

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.

All for progress, but this thing is pretty intrusive and in the wrong place if you're on a smaller phone. Personally don't need it, since I can get to the top of the page natively by pressing the top of the screen, while on a Mac a quick swipe and the same. So if it can be disabled that would be great.

Yes, I'd like to be able to disable it.

I'm missing out on nothing. I have zero reason to have one.

I don't remember the IRA killing and raping and burning 1200 people in one day. Then parading victims around the streets. 

 

I don't believe the IRA were integrated with the Irish government either. 

 

This was a declaration of war. They wanted it and they got it. Now they are losing badly and trying to walk it back. Doesn't really work like that. 

LOL. They are winning the propaganda war, which IMO was always the motivation for October 7. They set a trap for the israelis and netanyahu and his cabal walked into it like Pavlov's dog.

They used to be able to oppress Palestinians and steal their land without any major world opposition. Now there are major protests all around the world and even students in top American universities are standing for Palestine. Israeli atrocities are in full view, and it's likely israel will go the way of apartheid in Sth Africa.

They knew they'd lose the battle but that wasn't the objective. They want to win the greater prize- isolation of israel from civilised countries.

Has it reduced significantly in size? 

Great referred to the size of it's presence on the planet. It has almost none outside of the British Isles now, apart from Diego Garcia and the Falklands.

there is no solution to this horrible mess unless the resources on this planet are more evenly distributed. then again apple and microsoft are worth almost 6 trillion dollars. 

I agree, but I also know that it will not happen. Humans are a greedy and vile species.

IMO all those illegal immigrants want to live the same life as they see on tv shows, and they are not wanting to make it a better world.

Doesn't matter how many he loses, Putin has oil, he also has autocrat allies that will supply him with arms to continue to strike civilian targets, power stations, fuel depots until Ukraine runs out of soldiers and Putin will continue to get mercenaries and felons to act as cannon fodder.  He is a sick defeated spy who took over power and wants to get Russia back to the "glory days" no matter the cost in manpower.  He also reportedly has kidnapped hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian kids who are reportedly being forced to become Russians.  Meanwhile the world mostly stands by....

Do the right thing. Strike a blow for freedom and smite the Russian orcs. Join the Ukrainian army and fight for the side of right. They have a trench waiting for YOU.
