No one stole their land. Palestine doesn't exist.

Just think, if their Arab neighbors would allow them to flee into their countries many would be safe. Why do they insist on supporting Hamas? Why in the past when their Arab neighbors gave them refuge did they create hate and discontent? That’s why they won’t allow them in! You don’t see ANY Palestinians denouncing these demonic attacks!

Because they want them dead to continue fighting
First, Hamas is no Palestine, for that is like claiming Northerners are Boko Haram or Igbódù are Ipob, and if you think they are then there's no point attempting to reason with you.

Second, if Palestinians do not exist, please tell me who the people you say should flee to their neighbours are.

You know they can surrender.
I guess they choose not to surrender to bullies who steal their land.

Video: Hamas Thanks
Ukraine for Selling
Them Weapons
…Video footage
purports to show
You are just being evil knowing this is false.

CLAIM: A video shows a BBC News report confirming Ukraine provided weapons to Hamas.

AP’S ASSESSMENT: False. The widely shared video clip is fabricated. Officials with the BBC and Bellingcat, an investigative news website that is cited in the video as the source, confirm that neither outlet has reported such a claim. Experts say there is no evidence of Hamas making such a claim, either, and say there is no reason for Ukraine to arm the militant group.

Family › Re: Nigerian Married Men Please by budaatum:
Hallysugarcandy:
Easier said than done, there are many unfortunate consequences for married women that divorce cheating husband in nigeria, her fellow women and even men will stigmatize her and see her reasons for leaving as trivial and nonsensical. Majority of men in Nigeria cheat on their wives, the behavior is so widespread that women now take it as normal and assume every man cheats and "it rains everywhere".
Her female children will be stigmatized too because they will be seen as kids raised by a woman who couldn't keep her marriage,so they themselves will not make good wives.
Nobody cares to know how terrible the marriage was for the woman before she chose to walk away.
Marriage for majority of women in Nigeria is hell on earth because of their cheating husbands behaviour.
One just need to consider the risk of catching the life threatening disease the man catches from his sidekick and walking away becomes much easier.

You're not going to be able to have the type of discussion necessary for this topic here.
It would be odd of me to think I'd converse with stupid idiots who are best ignored.

That they oppose Ukraine where Russia is concerned but would support Israel against Hamas shows the shallowness of their unreasoning. Besides, they've admitted they are here to "catch cruz", so why would I let them catch at the expense of my valuable time?

Thankfully, I can resist ignorance and stupidity.

I guess there's no point complaining about Israel/Palestine, when my own Yoruba people are attacking each other over land. I can't even ask for sympathy for either side despite being from Ifon Osun myself.

I'm sad.

You recently asked about Sunak's rollback on previous clean energy commitments. He was an investor, so would be looking where the money's at.

Unfortunately, he's short term too and it will come back to bite him in the end, if his still prime minister.

China is bringing online a coal fired plant every week. With their darn cheap energy and labour, they are the world's factory of solar panels. UK can't produce cheaper panels than china. Or anything else for that matter. Blowing up Nordstream cheap gas does not lower the costs of energy .
Same thing to rare earth minerals used in electrical/electronics. The west has ample reserves but won't extract them because of the environmental waste they produce. China has no qualms refining these precious minerals
You disregard mainstream media about America, so I'd suggest you attempt the same when it comes to China.

Major China cities suffered from polluting smog some years ago to the point the banned driving some days, so it's remiss to think they'd build polluting coal fired plants.

Technology has improved since Britain built it's now abandoned monstrosities, so I'm certain those china builds today are less polluting. Besides, a single coal fired plant of today would likely pollute less than the totality of cars it empowers.

Reason please. Wouldn't it be absurd to tell Nigeria not to build coal power plants considering how little energy we currently do have? An argument against could be the extension of life due to power of any sort far out ways life reduction without it.

Hope you understand by that how buda can argue for non-polluting energy in UK, and give me light of any sort in Nigeria. Even South Africa with a fifth of our population consumes more energy than we do.

As for the environment and human health that's very ok to use clean energy.
Very soon we shall pay a carbon tax disguised as a sin tax.
It does not need to be disguised as it's already a sin tax where it's imposed. It is a sin to pollute and shorten your neighbours life even if you pollute and shorten your own life since it shows you don't love yourself and would commit suicide and you don't love your neighbour whom you are murdering.

About polluting. I know one should take care of the environment , garbage disposal , factory locations , etc.
A fine for just driving a car seems absurd. Once people accept this what's to prevent the lawmakers from demanding only EVs for instance.
To save mother earth
Or having laws about howmany times one can fly, how many cows one can keep and finally whether population should be allowed to increase
A reduction in pollution does not only save the planet earth, it saves lives too. And is very similar to the ban on coal for heating. Britain knows how coal blackened buildings and people's lungs and don't want polluting cars doing the same to people.

What's sad is, all those polluting cars banned in the western world would end up in poorer countries where they'll reduce life expectancy, and poor countries don't realise it yet. If we did, we'd ban generators too, instead of allowing those who have them to pollute the environment and shorten theirs and their neighbours' lives.

Kindly educate yourself on the history of Vehicle emissions control so you at least know it's not a new thing.

Here is China on the same issue.

Howdy Budaatum.
What are the Londoners saying about your PM declaration that a man is a man and a woman is a woman.
That's his personal opinion, and most don't care.

We have laws that protect all minorities, and he can't abolish them without a bill in parliament, and neither would he insist on using a birth pronoun for a transgender for that would be the end of him.

On the whole, Britons know about Oscar Wilde, and would try not to repeat errors of the past.

basilico:
Plus those street cameras that lead to fines if your car is emitting more CO2 than allowed?
This is a London law. You'd get a letter in the post with a photo of your car polluting. You'd be given 14 days to pay half the fine or all of it after that, or you can go contest it in court, where if you fail, you pay the full fine plus the cost of prosecuting you.

Shows how powerless people are if they are owed 28 years gratuity and can do nothing about it. Not even voting in a person who promised it them till now.

People elsewhere would be better organised, would have sued, and interest would have been accumulating until they were paid.

Being dead.

One can overcome or recover from all that's listed so far but you don't recover from being dead nor could you continue participating with the living or in what the living do.
