Re: Meanwhile, back in the West Bank

Around 600,000 people openly violating international law, and 28 are sanctioned, or just 4 for the US.

Redefining baby steps.

Re: Israel, land of milk and honey

I guess Valentine's Day wasn't so good in the leptoq household.

Sorry if that's the case.

Re: God Hates Ireland ? Land of the Sodomite Damned

How did Valentine's Day go for you, leptoq?

My Lego roses went over well with my girlfriend, but she's kind of nerdy.

Not nerdy enough for these forums, but of course that's a high bar.

Re: God Hates Ireland ? Land of the Sodomite Damned

A staggering amount of antisemitism in Ireland: https://global100.adl.org/country/ireland/2014

Especially among those over 50.
The ADL would find antisemitism in your linen closet, Paul.

On the other hand, Yitzhak Shamir is probably the only person ever to have taken part in the murder of a United Nations mediator and then go in to be the leader of a country.

And I suspect that the proportion killed that are actual combatants is lower in Gaza than in any of the others.

There's a name for this: genocide.

Maybe one day we'll find out.

But if it went the way you think, I think that day would have been a couple months ago.

Re: Israel, land of milk and honey

And what did Russia have to offer, anyway?  The answer is just above your post. If you haven't noticed it, I can't help you. Try an ophthalmologist. No, I got that. What I'm wondering is, what tangible benefits does Russia have to offer anyone? I'm guessing my local public library could offer to sh...

Re: Israel, land of milk and honey

If Russia wasn't involved then there'll be some people accidentally falling out of tall buildings who should have thought of it.

Re: Israel, land of milk and honey

So, having to choose between Russia instigating Hamas' attack and Russia just taking advantage of a situation that arose without its involvement, you think the former is more likely than the latter? Even if it took you awhile to come up with a means by which Russia might have instigated the attack? ...

Re: Israel, land of milk and honey

I guess I don't think mass killing, mutilation, and inflicting suffering requires as much skill and insight as you do.

I'm not sure which of us that reflects most poorly on.
