C Closed minds and all that. Whilst I do not want to agree with the content of the article (I really do not like current Israeli policy or the practices of the IDF) it is very difficult to argue with RLs opinion on this one.

If you did not find Dave Allen funny then you really are a humourless human being.

As for a brand, Yuasa, end of thinking.

Sometimes I miss Ernest, what an opportunity! (Left my booking late, no vacancies, offered a little extra to bump someone etc etc)

Not sure of the relevance of me moving to Australia? It just seems that all sides refer to what the other did last as a justification for what they are about to do, or have already done. It’s just bloody ridiculous. What the opponents, and their supporters (and independent observers like us)...

That ‘conflict’ was 400 years ago by your date (but goes back further), the one in Israel/Palestine goes back even further. How long should it be before ancient excuses are consigned to the dustbin?

As I have posted elsewhere, the Albion number 12 shirt has just been retired in my mind. Rest in peace Gerry. (I blame Henry Hughton)

The use of ‘ethnicity’ when used to describe being Jewish is surely a red herring? Members of the Jewish faith have been spread all over Europe for many hundreds of years, and latterly into North America and other places. The bloodlines must have become be so diluted with other ethnicities and...

I’m sure MM did not mean that at all. You just grabbed an opportunity to sound holier than thou.

Just trying to work out why you were asking which beer you might be able to take to your seat at an EPL game with the staff in your local supermarket?

Just coming through on news channels here that over 250 bodies of civilians have been found at the music festival attacked by the Palestinians. CIVILIANS Other actions seen over the last couple of days were inexcusable, but the slaughter of unarmed civvies at close range is barbarity. Moral...

From the International Holocaust Rememberence Alliance the following statement “Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of antisemitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their...
