    Israel

    Where have I criticised “all of them”? As I said months ago, we talk about Russia invading Ukraine but it doesn’t imply that all Russians are evil bastards. I have made a point for months now in making it clear that it is those in Israel who are either responsible or supportive of the genocidal acts against the Palestinian people. I have absolutely no issue with Israelis/Jewish people who are against Netanyahu, his extremist government and the IDF just as I have no issue with any Russian who is against Putin, those who are supportive of the bastion and the Russian army who are carrying out the invasion. I took flak on here immediately for daring to say that there were no guys in white hats in this conflict and that Hamas and the Israeli government were both at fault for the conflict. This caused some of the usual suspects to cry antisemitism. I posted about the Israeli police report about the IDF killing Israelis along with Hamas fighters and was called antisemitic despite the news being reported by the Israelis. I gave evidence that the IDF had operational instructions to shoot and kill any Israeli hostages held by Hamas or other terror organisations along with the combatants. This was evident on 7th October as reported by the Israeli police. By posting it I was called antisemitic. Perhaps the usual suspects chose to target me because I call them out for other issues? Who knows? There are plenty of high profile Israelis or Jewish people who say exactly the same as I post on here, but they completely ignore that and carrying a playing the poster. Maybe if you also posted about and against far right agitators and far right politics you would eventually get the same treatment? I have been posting on here for nearly twenty years and posted on this site’s predecessor for many years before that. I appreciate that you are a relative newby and don’t have the history that I and the usual suspects have. I can tell you that I have long been a target for the anti-woke, Islamophobia, misogynist, homophobic, racist, xenophobic, anti-trans, anti- socialist crowd. Thankfully there are a lot more people posting in the same vein now, but go back a few years and you will find plenty of pile ons from the usual suspects whenever I posted against far right attitudes or in support of the oppressed. I have said this many times and will say it again. I am against any form of extremism. That includes extremism groups of Muslims, Jews, Israelis, Palestinians, Russians, Christians, White Supremists, English, Irish, Scots…get the picture? It is very clear that the label of anti-semitism is used to try and shut up or denigrate critics of the current Israeli government and their enablers and supporters. Go back and read old posts and you will find the same here. Go back and read the links that I have posted from Israelis and non Israeli Jews. If I am anti-Semitic then so are they.
  2. This will play well with the anti-vax brigade and excite the conspiracy theorists, but is incredibly bad news for the rest of humanity. It is very likely that there will be another, similar pandemic in the future and the development of drugs that can deal with the flu/covid viruses is vital. Kennedy is a dangerous man. He has sacked many capable people in his administration and replaced them with anti-vaxers. His beliefs should exclude him from this office. If his decisions just affected the USA, I’d say that this is what they voted for so suck it up. Sadly it will affect much of the rest of the world. Hopefully these development programmes will be picked up in other countries and those experts in their fields move too.

    Israel

    Tell me, are you ok with the way that the Israelis are treating the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank? Are you ok with the way that Netanyahu and his government try and shut down any form of criticism as anti-Semitism? Are you ok with the way that Israel constantly ignores International law? Are you ok with aid being deliberately withheld from the people trapped in Gaza and the deliberate targeting of people seeking what little aid there is? Are you ok with the idea that one nation/religion is above criticism and that any attempt at criticism makes the person being critical out to be a Pyrrha ? If you answer yes to any of the above I conclude that you are something more than an idiot. There is one particular poster who does the same job on here that Netanyahu and his government does when it comes to handling criticism of their actions. When it is pointed out to them that exactly the same points are being raised by other Israelis/Jewish people they don’t seem to be able to handle that and go back to attacking the non Israeli/Jewish people for making exactly the same points.

    Israel

    https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/israel-security-trump-gaza-hostages-hamas-b2801679.html We have been told on this thread that any criticism of Netanyahu, his government, the IDF, or any Israeli in general is anti-Semitic. What does that make the Israeli gentlemen who signed the letter above to Trump?
  5. Not that you will hear this news from Farage (or Batman for that matter). They are far too busy telling us about sex offenders with brown skin. https://www.lancasterguardian.co.uk/news/national/morecambe-man-one-of-12-charged-with-child-sex-crimes-5238988
  6. You would have us believe that Yusuf is the acceptable face of Reform? There is no acceptable face of Reform. The party morphed from UKIP which itself had deep roots in those who previously supported the NF and BNP. Farage pretends to distance himself from the extremist elements but is more than happy for the likes of Robinson, Hopkins and Tate to do the groundwork for him and drum up support. It is the same stuff as MAGA, another extreme nationalistic populist movement which you also seem to quietly support. Perhaps, instead of calling people “vile scum”, ask yourself why you are drawn to people like Trump and Farage. I’m guessing it is a conspiracy theory thing? That shtick has been sucking people like you in for decades. Does believing their crap make you feel special? Still, whatever floats your boat nic, eh? By the way, Robinson has been arrested again, this time for alleged GBH. Seems that he can’t stay out of trouble for more than a few days. Is he “vile scum” nic or do you give him a free pass because you share his agenda?
  7. So a person with brown or black skin cannot also be racist? Not only lazy nic, but yet again you display a staggering level of ignorance. We all know what these people are all about. Just show some backbone and own your support for their agendas.

    What a nasty piece of work. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gjxg65p56o.amp
  9. I wonder what the odds were on one of this country’s most current high profile racists being born with the same initials as the National Front? Something for our resident conspiracy theorist and GB News aficionado to ponder on. I wonder if nic’s surname beings with an F too? 🤔
  10. Given that 77 million people in the US thought it was a good idea to vote for Trump and there is a growing number here who support Reform and previously thought it was wise to vote for Brexit and Johnson, it is no surprise really. They should consider changing its name to the NF Broadcasting Company. Yet another example, if we needed one, that turkeys do actually vote for Christmas.
  11. Technical question. Does a mermaid actually have a “minge”? Asking for a friend.
  12. What are the odds on another “suicide” in jail?
  13. Rohl has left. The club is in chaos.

    Israel

    There are plenty of others including the IRA (Thatcher was in talks with them despite saying she didn’t talk to terrorusts) and Mandela and the ANC. But yes, the Israelis deliberately killed British people when pursuing their aims, but they seem to get a free pass by some. Evidence that the IDF deliberately target children. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/videos/cjelp738zd7o If Hamas are not seen to be fit to be included in peace talks, why is Netanyahu’s regime ok when they are clearly committing war crimes too and have done consistently since 7th October 2023? https://www.independent.co.uk/tv/news/israel-gaza-war-children-british-doctor-video-b2792054.html I saw the interview with a doctor last night explaining how they would present at hospital on particular days with gunshot wounds in particular places (including the testicles). Anyone arguing that Netanyahu’s methods are less monstrous than those of Hamas should seek some help.

    Israel

    147 of the 193 member nations of the UN recognise Palestine as a state. If that is in breach of international law and awful lot of lawyers have either given dodgy advice, or the nations have just decided to ignore the law. It seems that most people, other than the Israelis, think that the best solution for all parties involved is the two state solution. Little wonder that Israel are kicking up such a stink given that they don’t want a two state solution and are actively trying to remove the Palestinians from their own land.
  16. Triggered again Batman? 😂 I would have bet my mortgage on it. For the record, I wasn’t the one who dragged the “far right” reference onto this thread. Still, it’s always worth a laugh to see how you lot get so touchy when called out.
  17. Booby Moore? Freudian slip? If you count the trophies that they lifted, then on that basis she is, but as in all sports, men and women should be judged on their relative and respective merits. If she goes on to win the women’s World Cup too that will be some feat. We don’t need reminding that the men’s England team have failed to win the Euros let alone win them back to back, even under the great “Booby” Moore. It’s a shame that there is a need from some quarters to belittle the women’s achievements just because they are women and not as strong, physically, as men. Women and girls are still playing catch up in regard to the opportunities they have to develop their game. Let’s not forget that the FA actually banned them from playing the game for many years. Lets just enjoy the fact that we have actually won another major footballing trophy, irrespective of the gender of the team, and stop the nitpicking.
  18. Really? I disagree. I think that most reasonable people can tell the difference don’t have a problem with someone expressing a bit of national pride and saying that they are proud of being English, British, Scottish, French, Spanish or whatever. The issue is when that comes with the baggage of racism, xenophobia, Islamophobia, misogyny, homophobia, transphobia etc. For example, when the likes of the leader of the Reform party, Tommy Robinson or Katie Hopkins use that phrase, you just know that it is loaded and expresses something more than just national pride. I’m not really sure why you felt the need to mention the “far right” on a thread about women’s football? Anyway, it was great to see them all enjoying themselves amongst the diverse crowds along the Mall eh? On another note, the Spanish team don’t seem to be taking defeat very well. So what if they were the better team on the day? It’s all about sticking the ball into the back of the net, and England managed that better than Spain 🏆 Go away and work on your finishing ladies. Better luck next time.
  19. Yes, I watched some of it. So what? Would you prefer these people were left to roam the streets and sleep rough? Wasn’t it the last government who decided that it was a good idea to put them up in hotels and not bother to do anything about processing the claims? The current government are processing claims, sending people back who aren’t entitled to be here and are going to stop using hotels. Progress being made, yes? By the way, some of these people have been put up in a dump of a hotel near us in Hythe but I doubt if he would be interested in videoing that.
  20. Women getting pregnant? Whatever next? Still, it is good to see you have moved on from posting about Asian sex offenders. I have stayed at the Copthorne. It’s a nice place. I hope that your mates don’t set fire to it.
  21. You really do have a problem with women don’t you. Typically you are an expert on what it takes to win competitions yet you didn’t even watch yesterday’s match. Any team who wins any competition deserves it just by virtue of the fact that they have won when they have needed to, be they men or women. The fact that the women’s team have won more competitions than the men’s team should be applauded. Do you know their names yet or are you still using lazy Duckhunter type labels? As for Chloe Kelly, she was by far the most effective crosser of the ball in the England squad and also one of the most assured penalty takers. We looked better team with her on the pitch. The idea that England would not have won the trophy if she had started is just utter nonsense. The truth is we will never know, but it is just as likely that we would not have had to fight so hard in the earlier knock out rounds and would have been fresher for the final. Given her performances and experience at this level it is not at all unreasonable to expect a player of her caliber to start matches, especially as another attacking option, Lauren James, was clearly struggling for fitness.
  22. Bloody awesome!
  23. My team, Southampton FC, has done something to kill people? OMG, what exactly have they done? Whatever you think of a government policy, I am sure that they don’t deliberately set out to actually kill people. By your logic every government that has never paid a winter fuel allowance has set out to kill people. If you had one shred of basic intelligence you might have understood my point - that scare mongering by throwing completely random and unscientific figures around is neither helpful or responsible. A bit like you and your anti-vaccine conspiracy theories. If anyone is killing people it is the person who spreads lies about vaccines. You being one of those people. By the way, I have mostly voted for the LibDem party so if you are going to label me politically, that is where you need to go. I have made it very clear that I vote Labour to get the Tories out and have only done so in the last 3 elections. I did actually say that my preference in the last election would be a Labour/LidDem coalition. I know that you struggle with actual facts and prefer to make up your own to suit your own agendas, but you just make yourself look dim. P.S. I should have added that I am one of those who didn’t get the fuel allowance this winter. I don’t have a problem with the benefit being means tested though. I suppose you were ok with the likes of Alan Sugar and Richard Branson getting it too?
  24. Some insight into one of this country’s biggest scumbags. https://www.theguardian.com/news/ng-interactive/2025/jul/26/dodgy-guys-who-dress-just-like-him-meet-the-team-behind-far-right-activist-tommy-robinson

    Russia

    https://icct.nl/project/russias-influence-europes-far-right-violent-extremism Apparently Putin’s cyber team have also been busy whipping up a frenzy amongst far right and like minded individuals here over Epping and other places with migrant hotels.
