  1. Then maybe I have something at last? I don't have any evidence, only my own recollections from my time in Africa. For foreign news, the Africans I remember listened to French or BBC services but never VoA. No U.S. colonial history there, really. Maybe Donald will put a bid in for Togo?
  2. Another Hurghada holiday from hell. Sad.
  3. Little effect. Most Africans would not even know what VoA is, let alone tune in.
  4. Different fault. Different outcome.
  5. Is that really relevant right now?
  6. Not as easy as you think but agree about the shouting bit.
  7. It is, literally. Geologically at much less risk of seismic activity than areas north and west of it.
  8. Myanmar big one: https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/eventpage/us7000pn9s/executive https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?currentFeatureId=us7000pn9s&extent=0.65961,82.70508&extent=27.83947,136.14258 https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?currentFeatureId=us7000pn9s&extent=-62.10388,-83.32031&extent=81.20142,344.17969
  9. Prove it so and I will retract.
  10. Damn! One more badge than I had in the cubs.
  11. Before you get too far along with the Suez Canal, you might want to read about the expansion and outcomes of the Arab/Muslim caliphates invading and occupying much of in Europe from 711. Oh, and not just the nicer bits.
  12. Hello, Mr. Cynical. Agree. How have you been??
  13. All wrong. Detention Saturday.
  14. There were two. The larger group were successful after the smaller group failed
  15. Perhaps but I am starting to think this might be another Hamas red herring.
  16. The PCRF version of the history of Palestine (and Palestinians) looks to have been invented/shortened to justify their noble mission. But this version is far from any other that I've seen. To say that Palestinians have lived throughout history from the river to the sea is very misleading and ignores the existence of the Israelites, who have been trying to live there for more than 3000 years, whenever other empires allowed them to. Several different groups of Arabs in this Palestinian area drifted in and out but there is no record of them being and living there constantly, and certainly not for continuous thousands of years!
  17. Your (insulting) opinion but nothing to do with the comment that you replied to.
  18. Yes, several accounts of the Oct 7 events said this. I suppose there are several different groups with different interests in Gaza but all seem to have been controlled by Hamas so far. But why these protests now?
  19. Seems so. The story is misleading. The crime was committed and tried in the UK. These people were just living here for a while. I wonder where else they went?
