    [Film] The most heartbreaking films of all time

    I won't go anywhere near anything like the stuff mentioned on this thread. Life is itself problematic enough without watching variants of misery in a movie. The moment any cruelty appears, I'm off.

    Oh, and Minteh's passing was the worst aspect of the first half

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Wolverhampton Wanderers *** Official Match Thread ***

    Careless passing. And Steele had a shocker. Slow to pass out putting pressure on the defenders who get closed down. That aside, all rather jolly.

    [News] Exploding pagers across Lebanon

    I said Hamas were elected. "In 2006 Palestinian legislative election, Hamas secured a majority in the Palestinian Legislative Council by campaigning on promises of a corruption-free government and advocating for resistance as a means to liberate Palestine from Israeli occupation." I didn't say...

    Sorry to hear that. I suspect you have been the recipient of reproach from people I have on ignore.

    [Misc] Britishcore - "100 experiences that define and unite modern Britons" (it says here)

    What a load of old bollocks. (Albeit I have done the Cornwall thing).

    [News] Exploding pagers across Lebanon

    The modern PLO were swiftly replaced by Hamas after they 'went soft', elected by the Palestinian people who apparently prefer terrorism to a negotiated settlement.

    [News] Exploding pagers across Lebanon

    You are describing a hypothetical strategic attack (in Ukraine) on an invading and occupying force intent on invading further. Hezbollah in Lebanon is not an invading and occupying force in Israel, albeit it would probably like to be, but isn't strong enough. I would argue that Israel is bound...

    With respect, Jordan and Egypt are not Iran. Alright, granted that there has to be a solution, what, apart from the passage of time, and the replacement of angry old fundamentalist settler Jews and rabid Islamist misogynist 'scholars' as they die of old age with a young modern aspirational...

    The Tamil Tigers did not reach a negotiated resolution. There were defeated militarily. Sinn Fein is now the largest party in Northern Ireland, but they and the IRA never had sufficient traction in the South to sustain a realistic chance of military victory in the North. They knew soon enough...

    [News] Exploding pagers across Lebanon

    There are many reasons why my left eyebrow raised itself several times reading that. For example, the objective of Hezbollah and Hamas is not to create independent Arab states on the West bank and in Palestine and live happily ever after. The objective is to drive the Jews into the sea. They...

    [News] Exploding pagers across Lebanon

    I agree with all that. But they are also rightfully defending themselves. Unfortunately the tactic is cavalier smiting that often descends to indiscriminate maiming and killing of civilians. The tricky bit for me is juggling how to not take sides while not blaming one side or another. Both...

    [News] Exploding pagers across Lebanon

    No, you are absolutely right. As I mentioned previously my expectation is Bibi and his gang will be having a good old laugh about all the injuries, and will then jog on to something else. Both 'sides' are petty and vindictive (flinging bombs from Gaza into Israel to kill a few hundred civilians...
