Excel Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I think the clue was that was it was reported somewhere else where we can not mention is the fact she wanted a Buddhist ceremony later when restrictions are lifted. Maybe she is a Catholic and just fancied a Buddhist ceremony but don't think she was a Muslim by her style of dress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asia is. Israel is located in the continent of Asia. There is an interesting history to this with football: History of the Israel national football team - Wikipedia Israel is the only team who has played in more than two regional international competitions—Oceania, Asia and Europe. Although Israel belongs to Asia, political tension related to the Arab–Israeli conflict has prevented Muslim and Arab teams from playing against each other. Since 1991, Israel has been part of the UEFA, the European soccer federation. Edited July 20, 2021 by Jingthing 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 But it's definitely NOT in Asean, if that makes the Israel isn't in Asia brigade feel any better. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sungod Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 7 hours ago, grandpa said: And this is newsworthy because .....?????? Cause it could be seen as a nice happy story in current changeling times. But do agree due to the negativity of the forum that its could also be seen as a tad too positive at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stargeezr Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 A nice ceremony, where they all had, tea and coffee, and soda pop drinks to celebrate. How wonderful. But hey at least it was not one of those Las Vegas weddings. Geezer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
