I suppose a few Palestinians may be Arabs but most are not. Still seen no practical move from the UN.

I have never had that problem, that would be annoying. It also used to be that Beer was tax inclusive in a bar but that seems to have changed, hidden price rise.

With such massive support from the United Nations now must be the time to send in UN Peacekeepers, a War Crimes Tribunal, Humanitarian support etc. I cannot see Israel/US being able to object.

I can remember walking to Highfield Road with my Grandad and passing an old fashioned sports shop, I can sort of visualise where it was, anyway the left side had hunting and fishing equipment. I was in the Air Training Corp as a kid and occasionally we would go shooting, old 303s that would...

Well they do for Petrol, yes it is super annoying but there is sort of a reason, let us say you are Tesco and every store is subject to a different tax rate, not just a common rate but categories are different. You can have State taxes, County and Town plus special districts and all sorts of...

Rishi Sunak says the UK has judged that the blast at Gaza's Al-Ahli hospital was likely caused by "a missile, or part of one" fired from "within Gaza". The PM said the conclusion was based on the "deep knowledge and analysis of our intelligence and weapons experts". Media outlets, including the...

CNN Investigates: Forensic analysis of images and videos suggests rocket caused Gaza hospital blast, not Israeli airstrike https://www.cnn.com/2023/10/21/middleeast/cnn-investigates-forensic-analysis-gaza-hospital-blast/index.html This is a not bad passably comprehensive analysis of the "bomb"...

I thought this was quite interesting with the calls from The river to the sea, discusses what the US might have done if things had gone badly in 1973. I know there was an energy crisis, petrol prices doubled. I certainly did not know the perception at the time as to what might happen. Also begs...

I seriously doubt those losses are accurate, I am sure the numbers are both significant and we will also never know the real numbers. This guy is quite good, short punchy and pretty solid. Obviously English, lives in the Far East and I feel I should be able to track his accent down:

As everyone else is making suggestions: 1, Release Hostages 2. Allow Humanitarian Convoys in 3. Ceasefire 4. UN to send in a Peacekeeping Force 5. United Nations War Crimes Commission (UNWCC) - has precedence for similar situation 6. Free and fair elections for Palestinians. 7. Egypt to open...

Well 300 miles, just off would be like the Isle of Wight. Or the Isle of Man. Plus of course they have no valid claim. Or to put it another way Coventry to Paris.

This was the worst tragedy of the entire V weapon attacks. Reports from a number of witnesses tell the V2 was seen in its last moments of flight, a line drawn across the grey November sky. The store bulged outwards and then imploded and in the carnage 168 people were killed and 121 were...

For the sake of comparison a V2 which carried a ton of explosive far bigger than anything involved here took out a packed Woolworth with if memory serves me right 300 dead and twice that injured. So if we are to believe the 500 dead number and twice that injured would be normal there will be...

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-67144061 I doubt they intended to hit the car park, pretty sure they do not have that sort of capability Mind you the timing was good and they had the help of the true believers that ramped it up. Anyone who looked at it with a semblance of...

If I had paid for a JDAM and this was all it did I would want my money back. Better spending it on Bangers.

Jarvis as always has elucidated the situation that so many here have had difficulty with.

Quite interesting how you can do a BDA from your basement, this guy went with the narrative yesterday, now realises he was sold a pup.

Never trust the Guardian! But thinking about it does it really matter? Two birds of a feather.
