As the report says, the school is a "free"' school and not under Local Authority control, as such it can make it's own rules and does not allow any religious observance on the premises. The pupil in this case, and her parents, knew this before enrolling, as did the rest of the large proportion of Muslim students attending.

Given the reported differences between the Bishop and other factions of the Assyrian Orthodox Church I am wondering if this is more of a "domestic'. Certainly, the Police are saying the lad has a history of knife offences.

Did your twitter feed suggest that ? 😉

Liz Truss is a deluded dingbat. Just saying.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-australia-68822846 '"I never falsely suggested anything," Simeon Boikov tells me. Under the alter ego "Aussie Cossack", he posted untrue speculation that a 20-year-old Jewish university student was the attacker who had stabbed and killed five women and one man at a Westfield shopping centre in Sydney. He said on X: "Unconfirmed reports identify the Bondi attacker as Benjamin Cohen. Cohen? Really? And to think so many commentators tried to initially blame Muslims ''

Shoehorn ?

I rest my case.

If you must watch such programs you have to accept the imbecility of the contestants. They are specifically selected because of it, as it engages the audience, who sit there thinking they are smarter than those they are watching. ( An admittedly low bar ).

When does a mass killing become an act of terrorism ? Given the number of such events in the US it must distort the statistics.

Another stabbing in Sydney this time a bishop in his church was the target, and several others injured tackling the attacker.

Do you really have to ask ?

Somebody took advantage of the greedy and gullible to make a pot of cash. They did not listen to you, you arrogant twat.

Critical responses to Koonin's book, ( taken from Wiki ); In 2021, Koonin published the book Unsettled: What Climate Science Tells Us, What It Doesn't, and Why It Matters. Critics accused him of cherry picking data, muddying the waters surrounding the science of climate change, and having no experience in climate science. In a review in Scientific American, economist Gary Yohe wrote that Koonin "falsely suggest[s] that we don't understand the risks well enough to take action": The science is stronger than ever around findings that speak to the likelihood and consequences of climate impacts, and has been growing stronger for decades. In the early days of research, the uncertainty was wide; but with each subsequent step that uncertainty has narrowed or become better understood. This is how science works, and in the case of climate, the early indications detected and attributed in the 1980s and 1990s, have come true, over and over again and sooner than anticipated... [Decision makers] are using the best and most honest science to inform prospective investments in abatement (reducing greenhouse gas emissions to diminish the estimated likelihoods of dangerous climate change impacts) and adaptation (reducing vulnerabilities to diminish their current and projected consequences). Physicist Mark Boslough, a former student of Koonin, posted a critical review at Yale Climate Connections. He stated that "Koonin makes use of an old strawman concocted by opponents of climate science in the 1990s to create an illusion of arrogant scientists, biased media, and lying politicians – making them easier to attack." Nonprofit organization Inside Climate News reported that climate scientists call Koonin's conclusions "fatally out of date ... and based on the 2013 physical science report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)." Mark P. Mills, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a conservative think tank, and faculty fellow at Northwestern University’s McCormick School of Engineering and Applied Science, lauded the book in The Wall Street Journal as "rebut[ing] much of the dominant political narrative". Twelve scientists analyzed Mills's arguments and said that he merely repeated Koonin's incorrect and misleading claims. Koonin responded with a post on Medium.com answering these critics.

By implication, who would be carrying out deliberates attacks specifically on Jews ? Buddhists ?
