Amazingly, Hirsi Ali has come out and expressed sympathy towards Brievik's terrorist act of massacring teenagers. It is her anti-Islamic views that led her to this jaw-dropping conclusion. She did so in a speech, and there was one listener at least that was aghast at her views: Am I dreaming, or did...
I thought I'd share this. Positive images that make you smile.. http://www.loonwatch.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/Egypt_Christian_Muslim_Unity.jpg “One of the most beautiful photos of Egyptians during the presidential elections from photographer for Al-Ahram newspaper, “Bustaam Al-Zoghbi.” We choo...
Nothing of this sort surprises me anymore after witnessing the pure hate first hand on this very forum itself. I have to say I was surprised. Even the most rabid anti-Muslim posters here agreed that Brievik's slaying of Norwegian kids was a terrorist act and they didn't try to sympathise with the t...
Apologies for the flippant thread title, and it is not meant to belittle the issue or put down Amnesty International who have done a great job in highlighting the very serious issue.. Amnesty International: Israel frequently uses excessive force against Palestinians Annual report for 2012 says Israe...
Lets hope the " World " does not go apesh1t over who the Egyptian people choose as their next leader. Well, so far the signs are promising: US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton congratulated Egypt on its "historic" election and said Washington looked "forward to working wi...
As I said in the OP,I have some sympathy for the view that the Republicans really don't want to win the next election - they'd rather Obama face the crises ahead, and then aim to win the next election. But then again, perhaps the simplest explanation is the obvious one - a c0ck up and not a conspira...
..what she calls the 'banking fraud'. She gives a prepared speech on why Canada is in debt and the 'banking fraud' inherent in the current banking system. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bx5Sc3vWefE More on this here - including criticisms of the views expressed: http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2012/05/...
Not quite in the same universe as Emirates.. but it's yet another small start for the nation living under military occupation: Palestinian Airlines resumes flights after 7 years By IBRAHIM BARZAK, Associated Press MARKA AIRBASE, Jordan (AP) — Palestinian Airlines is back in the skies after being gro...
By Richard Feynman.. worth a minute of your time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b240PGCMwV0 (I'm looking forward to reading a biography of the man by James Gleik, just after I finish reading 'Why Nations Fail' and Paul Krugman's latest book 'End this depression now'..... so many books, so much spac...
EDL once again show that they don't represent the majority of normal English people - but rather are a bunch of sad, hate-filled losers who just want to cause trouble. This time they failed. http://www.redditchstandard.co.uk/photos/DSCF0403_c1518495_12526_680.jpg REDDITCH residents put on a show of ...
Shocking. Not just babies, but small kids standing and moving around in cars etc hurtling down SZR always made our blood boil.. :roll: I don't buy the 'it's cultural' crap - its a matter of education and discipline. There was resistance to belting up in the UK before concerted government campaigns m...
I think it's a small milestone and largely symbolic. When the military occupation is over and the Palestinians have control over their fate (and the Gas deposits in the sea) then at least they can have the opportunity for a fully fledged airline etc. I wonder how many airmiles it would take to free ...
The situation in Syria is bad and has been discussed before - with pretty much unanimity in views about the violence etc. Indeed exactly one year ago we were discussing the subject: http://www.dubaiforums.com/dubai-politics-talk/syria-genocide-t46454.html#p377260 (I was surprised that the thread is ...
No, the news stories don't make me reconsider having children - quite the contrary. I find that children bring joy into the world and literally are our future.. it is our job to love, protect and provide for them - and the deaths of children around the world (most children dying around the world are...
I remember a report from a while back about how the toilet seat is one of the cleanest parts of a house! One of the dirtiest was the computer keyboard... (It turns out though that the reports of germs (and worse) there were in the bowls of mints or peanuts sitting on bars turns out to be an urban my...
A slight improvement Drew.. but still more than a whiff of desperation and denial. But then again, your sad gang mates are the ones who hold the record for multiple bans from this forum - it is no wonder your lashing out rather than posting anything remotely interesting. Sad in name, sad in nature. ...
^haven't watched the above yet (but familiar with the findings about mitochondrial DNA etc)..

In the latest of a string of failures, the EDL have been caught out spreading a nazi-like, 'blood libel'-like lie about Muslims abducting young girls: EDL invents ‘child abduction’ story to boost attendance at Dewsbury demonstration In a disgu.sting attempt at recruiting assorted racists and fascist...
I could interprut that to meaning that anyone supporting the EDL on this forum would be banned. I guess you meant 'interpret'. As kanelli said, Andy is the one to ask about bans. However, you should not confuse correlation with causality. The EDL supporters have been banned indeed, but I didn't say...
