+xI'm a big-picture thinker. (That's not a boast because, to get things done in life, we need both small-picture and big-picture thinkers. And each cannot function without the help of the other.) When people trot out the Leftist Mainstream Media line - that Israel are occupiers, trying to draw the false analogy of, say, Nazi Germany's WW2 occupation of Poland, France, Netherlands etc. over the decades, I have not heard one single Lefty mention, let alone explain to me, how Israel came to have those lands under the Balfour Declaration. For instance, when Britain pulled out of India, it apportioned the land between Hindu-India and Muslim-Pakistan. Similarly, when Britain pulled out of the Middle East, it used a similar strategy to apportion the land between the Jews and the Muslims. Then how is it that the Jews came to have all the land? - given that Britain's Balfour Declaration ensured that both the Jews and Muslims would each get their share of the land? I can offer an explanation, but I'd like to hear from Lefty students, who've been indoctrinated by the Lefty education system, what they know of the Balfour Declaration, and the events prior to the 1948 Arab-Israeli wars, and the subsequent events. Whenever an Australian young person says that Israel are occupiers of the land, no one calls them out to ask them what is their understanding of the Balfour Declaration, and how it came about that the Palestinians ended up as refugees in Jordan. No one is explaining anything to a fuckwit like you when you write in such a condescending and patronising manner like you have above. Have a good hard look at yourself sunshine. Never has a a statement been more appropriate to a flog like you then 'the ignorant are cocksure, the intelligent are full of doubt'. In case you're in any doubt you're the former. You clearly know the answer to everything, are all over the 'lies' the MSM put out, a vaccine expert, a middle east foreign policy expert it now appears and are an ardent believer in a magical sky fairy. https://www.technologynetworks.com/neuroscience/news/these-are-the-most-common-traits-of-conspiracy-theorists-345553https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning%E2%80%93Kruger_effect

I have never been to palestine or israel so can only take teh word of people I know who have been. A friend was telling me yesyerday he wa sin gaza for business recently as they have factories there with an Israeli-owned company with palestinian workers He said all the Palestinians he has come across generally don't support hamas or any of the shit

Need to see which side MAGAs fall on regards what line Sky News will take. Surely they wouldn't side with Labour. Surely? No doubt Mr 'huge brain' (Trump not Enzo) would have sorted this a in a day. 260 killed at that concert apparently. Lidia Thorpe tweeting in support of Palestine. Showing support is just dumb at this stage, as you mentioned when all those young people being slaughtered bu cowards, fucking girls running through a field WTF Interesting from the MAGA, because as most side with Russia, this has massive benefits for the Russia/iranian alliance. With many suggesting it had approval/help from both.

+x+xImagine using a non-military strategy with that amount of cash? But shares in weapon's companies and military contractors would not go through the roof. It's pretty much a dollar a day for almost every man, woman and child in the US. Just like those charities which say a dollar a day can change a life! Er the evacuation was of mainly Non Govenrment Organisations staff, ie the 'charities' doing the nation buidling lol
Europe is funding the war not Chelsea football club

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2021-09-03/xi-jinpings-government-turns-against-capitalism-fame-and-tutors/100421752It takes a tremendous amount of political power to successfully destroy millions of jobs and bankrupt large companies with a single decision.And it takes an even more extraordinary level of power, unseen in modern times, for those most affected to stay publicly silent about it. And yet that's where Xi Jinping's China is at. Last month, with a sudden, jarring policy announcement designed to ease the financial burden on families paying for extra tuition for children, he decimated the country's private tutoring sector that is estimated to employ 10 million people. https://deadline.com/2021/09/china-bans-effeminate-men-tv-in-cultural-crackdown-1234826648/The China TV regulators called for “resolutely put an end to sissy men and other abnormal aesthetics,” using an insulting slang term for effeminate men — “niang pao,” or literally, “girlie guns.”

+x+xThe US made a deal with the Taliban to pull out. That's why there was 18 months of no US casualties. Mind you, execution for withdrawal was terrible. My guess is that the Pentagon was expecting Biden to backflip and troops were not going to leave (that's also why supplies and equipment wasn't shifted out). Apparently, this is what happened with Obama as well - he wanted to withdraw from Iraq too. The Pentagon just left supplies in Iraq, and said they couldn't leave all their stuff there. To also say that it was teachers v Taliban is also misleading. The US spent 20 years training Afghan forces - the 300k that gets bandied about. If they're not ready after 20 years, then they never will be. As for Korea, I think South Korea can look after itself and I'm sure many Koreans would be happy for the US to remain and ally, but without the bases. Hahahahahhahah thats a good one :) Yup. That's not gonna happen :)

+x+xThe Balkans make the Israel / Palestine thingo look like a mild disagreement between mates about whether sauce should be kept in the fridge or not. Staying well out if this. I'm married to a bosnian and she even goes bosnia is still very much divided . Visited Bosnia. Beautiful country but politically what a mess. This little excerpt out of wiki gives you a taster. Bosnia and Herzegovina has a bicameral legislature and a three-member Presidency composed of a member of each major ethnic group. However, the central government's power is highly limited, as the country is largely decentralized and comprises two autonomous entities: the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and Republika Srpska, with a third unit, the Brčko District, governed under local government. The Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina further more consists of 10 cantons. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bosnia_and_HerzegovinaMakes the current Qld, Vic, NSW border thing look like a walk in the park.

+xOne of the US architects of the bombing of Belgrade was given an exclusive contract to mine Kosovo. Maybe ol' Slobodan had weapons of mass destruction????
