If only life and conflict situations were so simplistic.

You heard it here first guys. Israel are the equivalent of Russia.
-
I don't think it's because the victims are Muslim. It's got more to do with the people on the other side of the conflict.

Of course he would help but jwp, Lavia and Tino would have helped last time and all of them were sold and ultimately it didn't stop us from getting promoted.
-
I'd love him to stay but if he goes that isn't going to prevent us from getting promoted.

I genuinely think a season in the championship would be beneficial for him. If however we are offered 50 million + I think he would be too valuable for us to turn that down.

I'm not a huge fan of selectively taking shit bits of a city and presenting them as representative of the experience everywhere. Southampton is nowhere near the best place to live in the UK but it's nowhere near the worst either. We have lovely green open spaces, some reasonable areas for entertainment and we are also close to other wonderful areas of Hampshire. Certainly there's a lot more rundown areas in the UK despite our drawbacks.

The Starmer Years - Can The New Broom Sweep Clean?

Untrue. Firstly it's not a law it's guidance and secondly they are postponing it until legislation comes in to remove it. -
I can I say a hearty congratulations to @Paul Chuckle. A giga own 17 years in the making.

This is like MLG's personal nightmare. His own words rising from the grave to haunt him. Hoisted by his own petard.
-
I don't agree but even if it were, what we see now from Israel and it's operations against Hamas is just as inevitable.
-
So mass kidnappings were justified? Fair enough because Hamas were provoked?
-
Tensions are irrelevant. It's about whether Hamas has the capability to undertake large scale terror attacks or mass kidnappings. I would say that the state of their organisation now makes that less likely at least in the short to medium term. Maybe we will see a spate of kidnappings and large scale terror attacks and you'll be correct. I haven't seen any evidence of that thus far.
-
The aim is to seriously degrade Hamas for a generation and put things in place so that Israelis are less at risk from terror attacks from Hamas. I'd say they are largely meeting those objectives albeit you are correct that ideally conflict would not occur. Sadly conflict is sometimes unavoidable.
-
Depends how much you degrade their ability to fight. Seems to me that further kidnapping are unlikely to happen again any time soon.
-
Remember you're only allowed to engage in a war if you have similar munitions and equipment. If there is a disparity between two sides, then one would think the weaker party to be pretty stupid for starting a war they were always going to lose.
-
He does it on purpose lynne.
-
In your fantasy scenario are Israel led by an elected terrorist organisation who killed and kidnapped hostages which they continue to hold without releasing them? Are you okay with the amount of civilians killed by the allies during World War 2?
-
I'm saying that very unfortunately virtually every war in history has collateral damage and that tragically innocents are killed. Is the ratio of innocent civilians to Hamas terrorists greatly higher than comparable urban wars on average? Or greatly lower?
-
Can second this. I went to a havant game last year and it was brilliant. Cheap to get in and get food and I had a chat with the subs bench on 70 minutes. Great value.

Hopefully a few more people will grasp the fact that there's a level of crossover here.
