You want a continuation of war? You dont want a ceasefire

You sound confused

After you've given us Brits immense credit for perpetuating slavery first please. We deserve that too.

Temper! Temper!!

The below is one of my several responses to buda.

"It's not a sign of cowardice or weakness to acquiesce to superior force or knowledge"

What would you have our forefathers do? You said it yourself up there - they had brute force, better technology, firepower - etc etc. In war, it is the winners who live to write the story of how they won!

Now, these guys spared our forebears lives. They could have done to us what they did to the sioux and other Red Indian tribes in North America. Would you be here today if they had done that? There are some things we should be thankful to God (not them) for. We live to fight another day in a different way.

Great write up you have up there. Thanks!

IjeBos:
Imagine if Biden had said anything close to this.

budaatum:
Do let me know when King Charles and all his land owning lords pack their millions and leave so I can start to consider whether to panic or not. Meanwhile, we are good, thank you very much.

raumdeuter:
Now with this historic peace brokered now watch as Democrats start criticizing peace and advocate for more wars

budaatum:
He's already promised it to farmers, so we'll see how much he has left for those $1000 cheques.

Oh! But the tariffs are not coming from the pocket of the rich, as far as they know, even though they are a tax on the profits of the companies most own shares in.

Companies are cutting their profit margins or reducing overheads in order to absorb the tariffs. I doubt there has been an exact corresponding increase in consumer good prices.
You have a study to show cobsuners are paying more?
Without tariffs prices still go up every year ,so you can factor that out .

if and what not...

What makes the IDF any different from Hamas?

What makes one killer or rapist or child destroyer different from another?

Appleyard:
I sometimes wonder what some of you guys stand to gain from continuously engaging people whose mind and sense of humanity has been eroded by undiluted religious indoctrination.
[/b]
Several United States journalists and military attachees posted to Gaza has confirmed that IDF soldiers use Israeli children and civilians as target practices at food and water collection points.

If you like, post evidence even from the White House itself, this brainwashed folks would still deny that Israel is just killing innocent Palestinians indiscriminately. They do this in the warp and satanically motivated belief that God bless and curse whoever would bless and curse Israel, so Israel must be supported unconditionally.

If you know how brainwashed Christians thinks, you wouldn't be wasting your time arguing them.

It's the highest level of indoctrination you can get anywhere. It's easy to spot because you can see how devoid of empathy and common sense their comments are, coupled with the strong and unwavering willingness to dismiss the truth and facts no matter the source from whence it came.

There is a word for this tragedy.

Zombification.

This is for you basilico. Fed cut, but mortgage rates have risen.

....and along with that colonisation was your enslavement, which you think was good for you.

That's from you. What do you mean by this? If the conditions were reversed, and you are the ones to colonise the Whites, will you hesitate one bit, when you know it's to your advantage? Heck we should be thankful these guys didn't think of wiping out our forbears! It's not a sign of cowardice or weakness to acquiesce to superior force or knowledge. That's what our forbears did - and we are here today because of that.

basilico:
Thanks. Looks like the mortgage rates are heavily tied to 30 year Treasury yields, so Fed cutting rates doesn't immediately translate to lower mortgage rates. The 30 year Treasury yield rate is currently at 4.2% .
That would be my understanding, I could be wrong.

buda, slavery predates the Brits. The scourge was on Earth even in Biblical times. All the major powers of the world - before the Brits, had slaves. Romans, Greeks, Ottomans and their Arabs friends, etc. I heard the Ottomans were notoriously cruel with slaves and I have watched a couple of documentaries on how "efficient" they were in wiping out entire communities and towns once they fall into their callous hands during war times.

Give it to the Brits. They did good. By the way I lived in Edinburgh for more than 3 years - and I still have my Lothian Bus card!

IjeBos:
Wait, has it been 24 hours yet?

nateevs:
Argue with purpose. Don't just be profligate with words.

You were applauding Trump for a ceasefire that was only a few hours old at the time, when we know Israel will break the terms very shortly.

Your response was "don't you want ceasefire"? I responded questioning the YOU referred to in your response, But you now tthink I am the confused one.

You llack the ability to stay on topic. Pivoting from one nonsense to another, just to drink the Donald Koolaid

I swear to God, I will create a forum, throw money at it for the sake of it and make it free to post anything we all can agree on represents common sense.

What's all this bot ban nonsense? How's the ownership ignoring this for this long? What benefits do your bots serve, so much that irritation of its user base - its own sustenance - becomes remotely acceptable?

This makes no technical sense. And it makes no business sense.

Seun:
Dear Nairalanders,

We are ramping things up. Here are some things we have done recently:

1. We gave Nairaland's theme a little facelift, fixing buttons, pagination, separators, and other little things.

2. We implemented a dark mode for Nairaland with the most intuitive UX: a sun toggle on your upper right.

3. We further relaxed the minimum character rule because many people were still struggling with it.

We are also trying to make our moderation bot (aka antispam bot) more accurate. Bear with us on that.

What else do you want us to work on?

Best Regards.

You are absolving Hamas.

🚨BREAKING: News reporter @BrandiKruse just ADMITTED to President Trump she had Trump Derangement Syndrome, but has thankfully recovered.

"I even think I got a little more attractive after I got rid of my TDS.”

"Very attractive," Trump added. pic.twitter.com/2sUhw8PEnU

Dont celebrate to early, There could be a Federal Judge ruling that the ceasefire is illegal and Trump has no authority to end the war

Same way you are told qanon mules 2000 kraken?

Stop letting yourself be told, is my advice to you.
