He's alone on this one. 7/10 is on Hamas, as is the fate of the hostages.

Not at all. The IDF are in control of the hospital. They'd show the tunnel popping up in the hospital if that's where it pops up, not just an entrance somewhere else.

Have you seen a video of a tunnel entrance inside a hospital?

Thanks Kraken. Ignore away pal!

You don't do that. Just click under a post if you want to take a look, press to see that post, and reply if you want to. They still stay on ignore, their posts /comments stay hidden, and you don't get loads of their drivel populating a page. Works a dream.

Not quite - Hypo's not bitten yet 😉

Re the ignore function. I have 1 poster on ignore purely because I find him/her irritating af. I do it so that when I join a thread I don't see loads of that posters shite. If it's quoted I see it, and if I fancy a laugh, I look at posts as and when I choose to. Nowt wrong with using the function selectively. I do reckon you're on a bit of a wind up though SoG, and if you're not, it seems to do the job anyway.

Come on, not even the Israeli's can knock one up that quickly.

And wtf is the SoG / Weston spat all about?! Bless em.

It's genocide when it happens. It hasn't yet, but make Gaza completely uninhabitable/unsafe, herd the people to the border and across, give them nothing to come back to, and I'm not sure what else you'd call it. A free permanent holiday in Sinai perhaps?

Yep, they did. It's what next for the people in the south. Can't go east, west or north. Only south. It's not genocide though. Definitely not.

I said way up there Badger that they'd herd them south, then the south would be next. What they've done is make the south all but uninhabitable with a lack of water and overcrowding. Now it'll become unsafe. People will be pushed ever closer to Egypt (there is water at Rafah). Eventually there'll be pressure on Egypt to let people in, and nowhere safe for people to live in Gaza. It's all so utterly predictable.

Yep. They've given Everton plenty of time to make up the points, and anyone impacted time for a tribunal appeal, etc. It's action, but action that ultimately won't serve as a punishment.

Jeez, we've got a forced evacuation from a hospital, kids being bombed in the apparently safe south, the only drinking water conveniently right next to the Egyptian border, and you boys are flirting about utterly irrelevant bollox. Get a grip.

Nope. And JWP, an actual midfielder who's in great form, is at home. Ridiculous.

I think you're focusing on the impact of the dysphoria and seeing the extreme behaviour as a reason to regard the dysphoria as a mental illness. You've got to go back to the beginning, not focus on the effect.

I accept that the WHO aren't infallible. This issue is one that I think is most closely comparable to sexuality. It's impossible to put ourselves in the position of someone being born into the world where there's an assumption that they can accept their birth gender and/or their presumed heterosexuality, but just can't. I just cannot see how a person on either scenario can be assumed unwell, but can see how society not accepting them (and probably labelling them unwell) could cause them to become unwell. It's a really tricky subject.

I think there's a degree of chicken and egg with some issues. Take alcoholism. I know recovering alcoholics who have presented as depressed (suicidal, etc) and at first blush have been diagnosed as such. However, a spell in the priory has quickly identified the deeper issue being alcoholism, being a condition in its own right and not caused by depression. Transfer that to gender dysphoria. If there is depression as a consequence of gender dysphoria, it's the dysphoria that needs addressing primarily, not the depression.

Gender dysphoria is not a mental illness. You'll get the same answer every time you ask me whether I think it is or isn't.

It's not my position. It's a medical position. I don't need to justify or argue the cause. However, I think there are very clear differences between this dysphoria and others - false equivalence to use on your phrases.
