Heaven forbid that you make a prediction based on what the most likely motive is.

It certainly doesn't help with the perception that most of them are largely the same type of people. Politicians I mean.

Indeed. Why on earth should someone lose their job over a random accusation? Suspend them if necessary.

Israel currently demanding that Hamas release their hostages as agreed by Saturday or they will resume fighting. As usual, the ball is in Hamas' court regarding what happens next.

What a bizarre post to respond to after 6 months.

U secretary general has told Hamas to proceed with the deal as planned.

Indeed very unfortunate but sadly not unsurprising.

Agreed. Quite pathetic for aintforever to suggest an equivalence when we have established that one does not exist. Glad it's clear.

Just as long as you agree that there is no equivalence. Aintforever seems to think there is one but I'm glad to see you disagree.

Where is my unique definition? All I've said is that there is not an equivalence between Hamas and Israel.

Ukraine have killed some innocent people too. Is there an equivalence between Ukraine and Russia?

There's no equivalence between Hamas and Israel.

Two wrongs implies an equivalence. There is none.

Hardly a surprise is it.

Oh right and you never held the Conservative party responsible for anything they did during their terms in office.

Of course they can. I haven't said otherwise. All I've said is that you can't oppose capital punishment because you are opposed to the state ending a life and then support a different measure that amounts to the state ending a life. The reason I do not oppose capital punishment in certain circumstances has nothing to do with my opinion on the state being involved with ending lives so it isn't the same thing. How is that difficult for you to grasp?

Laughable. Can you not read? It's perfectly possible for someone to oppose capital punishment and support assisted suicide for different reasons. You simply cannot believe that it is wrong for the state to take a life and then support the state taking a life. That's the part that is nonsensical, not the difference of opinion.

I never said that. I oppose the state being involved in assisting the death of others due to the potential for abuse and coercion. I am not opposed to the death penalty in a handful of very specific circumstances. Those two positions are perfectly compatible with each other. Saying you oppose the death penalty because the state should not be able to take a life whilst also supporting the state taking a life are two incompatible opinions to hold.

Some criminals request the death penalty. Bizarre to use the logic that the state should not have the right to take a life and then support the state assisting in the taking of a life.

Meanwhile you don't oppose state assisted suicide but do oppose the death penalty because it's wrong for the state to take a life?

I wouldn't want to subject the shirt to that hideous ordeal. Maybe a MLT picture tattooed on his forehead.

Interracial bukkake party.

I would also support this. Force extinction rebellion protestors to drive round a track in a jeep for five hours, make some of the vegan protestors eat a steak. All good ideas.

No. The death penalty can be on the table where the crime is sufficiently egregious, where no remorse is shown, where there are no mitigating factors and where the totality of evidence is such that there is certainty that the crime was committed by the individual in question. All I'm saying is that under those circumstances I would not be opposed to the death penalty.

As usual with you no specifics and you talk in generalities. Go and ask chatgpt for any examples of terrible crimes where the crime itself is indisputable. Not hard to think of a few. You can oppose the death penalty for many reasons but in the case of Rudakubana for instance, you can't oppose it because there may be a miscarriage of justice in that case. The idea is absurd and there's no dispute that he carried it out.
