My question is 20 living Israeli prisoners freed vs 1800 living Palestinian prisoners freed. Did Isreal capture all 1800+ after October 7th?

Or were they already holding onto Palestinian prisoners and then acted like the world ended when Palestinians people returned the favor on Oct 7th?

They act like they’re the only humans on earth. Everyone else is cattle they can do whatever they wish to.

I wonder what you think I meant when I said people are radicalised. Did you think I meant against Israelis only and not against each other?

There will likely be war in Gaza, is my reckoning. Sad, but inevitable.

Wthout hugely increasing consumer prices Trump is bringing more revenues . If those countries don't invest , their companies are forced to shoulder large parts of the tariffs.

A 171% year on year increase so far and an $300 billion is a windfall.
I find it strange that a Nigerian would think the producer or importer of a product into Nigeria will bear the import duties and port tax, and port bribes and customs tax and customs bribes and gateman dittos and police dittos instead of passing it all on to the consumer.

Might be because Nigerian capitalists are smarter than US ones, perhaps.

Your $300b windfall is a tax on business, and it delights me that it's not seen as such yet.

Ben, here's why I sometimes converse with you and mostly ignore your friend. Your world is more a "should world", but basilico's is a "must world", and reminds me of Ayatollahs.

That 20 boxes you have been using was not yours. It has to be destroyed or taken away, and replaced with the 5 boxes that truly belong to you.

You have been living under the illusion that you had 20 boxes. No, because they were not yours . You wrongly assumed you were wealthy. You were simply living a fake life. The true measure of your wealth was the 5 boxes that truly belong to you.

If you want to truly own 20 boxes, go out and work harder to buy more boxes which you can now claim as your legitimate possession.
You have been behaving like a spoilt brat for many years, now, you need to face your new realities and stop sulking around like a toddler. Double up your hustle to truly claim the 20 boxes you coveted. The old path only leads to destruction and not sustainable.
Ouch, but true. And we still don't accept it yet.

No one cares about due process for dead Palestinians except it's Jews doing the killing. Izrel never did these but we kept hearing Geneva convention upandan
You, who doubts 65000 Palestinians were murdered, would need better confirmation if you were being honest.

Recently, South Korea made it clear it’s not paying the $350 billion “signing bonus” Trump demanded. Japan might soon install a prime minister keen for a “renegotiation” of the US-Japan deal, including the $550 billion cash payment Trump has been expecting to arrive any day now. The European Union, meanwhile, is making it clear that the $1.35 trillion that Trump is expecting in return for a 15% tariff rate is a non-starter. European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen argues that the expected $750 billion in US energy purchases and $600 billion in fresh European investment in the US are more aspirational than binding. And that EU officials have no power to tell private companies where to invest.

Trump, in other words, is irked that deals he viewed as already in the bank are unraveling in real time.

Ben, dump should come back from his phenomenal big peace deal like has never been seen before and say nothing about the debt ceiling and watch to see if Democrats crumble like I'd expect they'll have to.

This should make you hate Trump more.
Trump Truth media group bought $2B worth of BTC. His 41% state means he has $870 million worth of BTC.
Unlike other world leaders concerned with controlling Blockchain, Trump wants to reinvent his TMTG as a financial services company including running a Crypto exchange.
Why should the fact that dump is using his position and influence to enrich himself make me hate him more when that is what I expect him to do?

What he's done is bring individual capitalism into the White House where it's occupied can trade on the address. And after him will come corporate capitalism. Or aren't you already yelling Soros?

I don't hate dump. I'm amused by him and fascinated by the times and culture that made him possible, and I can't wait to see how he influences the future knowing there'll be good and bad consequences.

It is good you admitted your error in your other post. Now what you need to do is curate your information sources to balanced views that use proportional reasoning rather than emotional blackmail to stop you looking like a wally going forward

As for the above, Shamima Begum can radicalise Brits from her phone in Syria, it's a moot point. In Syria she should stay.
I don't know why my opinion should emotionally blackmail you. Is your spine so weak?

Shamima Begum can't radicalise anyone to come and share her suffer because beautiful Britain does not look like blown up Palestinians. But I guess that's wally to you.

Do you now think he can not get a phone and radicalise others wherever he is deported to, or is it that the deportation will cure his radicalism?

You talk like every country has the same software but let's see if I can break through.

The mad lying Germany leader Adolf Hitler committed suicide inside his Führerbunker, and when his people found out what had been done in their names, they were so ashamed they said, never again.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Instrument_of_Surrender

The Japanese were so ashamed at themselves that "Emperor Hirohito let it be known that he was prepared to apologize formally to General MacArthur for Japan's actions during World War II—including an apology for the December 7, 1941, attack on Pearl Harbor."

Tell me why some Palestinian wouldn't be radicalised to throw drones at Israelis who blew up their entire city and lives in the house his deported father built when they've blown their own bodies at them in the past?

Ben. They don't all go to the same mosque, and you must know some mosques can radicalise more than some and you should expect they will. Or don't you?

In my own opinion, the situations and cultures of surrendered Germany and Japan being so different doesn't make me expect their response from the very divided Palestinians who have had fire ceased on them but have not surrendered at all.

If I were on the receiving end of that deportation treatment I likely will be radicalised, and I'd think perhaps another 1% of those released might be radicalised like me.

Or do your think all of them will just accept their ass whip like you believe they ought to and not feel pïïsed and vengeful?

This is the story of a missing girl, Madeleine McCann, missing since 2007.

I think there's a deep deep state & ulterior motive behind this case, and I sincerely believe the McCain, sorry McCann family, should do a DNA test, as the so-called Polish girl looks like the missing girl, but I guess they are addicted to be in the press.

Again, given the machinations in the world, fake Madeleine with the same DNA might as well be in existence, but they should do the DNA test anyway.
The below was by you

The pair had been asking for a DNA test, something McCann said she would have been unable to do without the involvement of the police, who had already ruled out the possibility that Wandelt was her daughter.
Despite previously publishing DNA test results which concluded she is 100 per cent Polish and therefore cannot be missing Madeleine, Julia has this week shared 'new' DNA results which apparently show she is related to Gerry McCann.
