And yet Sudan and Yemen are fully fledged member states of the UN, so apparently not having a stable government isn't a requirement for international representation, influence and a vote, but is a requirement to be held to even the most basic standards of Human Rights? That's pretty messed up. Sudan was even given a seat on the UNHRC for the 2023-2025 term, even while millions of Sudanese were starving, murdered and forced to flee. You couldn't make it up! The UN has comprehensively and pathologically failed in its mission statement. It has wilfully diverted a disproportionate amount of time, resource and manpower to the 'Israel/Palestine question', happily turning a blind eye to horrendous conflicts elsewhere causing suffering and death far beyond the scale of even what we've seen in Gaza over the past year.
Heathrow Airport shut down for the day... https://news.sky.com/story/heathrow...-cancelled-london-fire-travel-latest-13332924 Nothing to see here folks. Needs a big picture for effects... please log in to view this image
People moaning about their flights being cancelled, our country seriously is long overdue a war to give these clowns some perspective in life. #NeedMoreBogRoll
Much more likely because it's an internal civil war between two equally well armed factions tbh ... neither of which has been supplied with 'defensive' missiles of peace and logistical support by the most powerful nation on the planet...
I get it. People are skint and save up all year and then the holiday gets ****ed because some **** in Hayes didn’t stub his *** out. Then inevitably the communication is terrible, you’re being quoted a grand for a hotel room in some dump area near Heathrow and the wife and kids are kicking off. I’d be pissed off. Then again I normally go from Gatwick and I’m not affected this time so I don’t care.
Can't see it being up again today, so they might as well all **** off home. Be lucky if it's even up again tomorrow, unless they can somehow redirect the power for an airport. It's still on fire now. Even when they get the power back up, all the planes are going to be in the wrong places... Just seen, Heathrow reconnected to power on interim basis. 1,350 flights impacted.
I can imagine the conspiracy nonsense that's going around. Everything from HAARP weather control did it, to Lazer weapon in space directed by the Chinese.... @Sucky will know what caused it
I followed my normal process on Twitter of seeing what is trending first, but I didn't see Heathrow trending because it was probably under some other zoomer title, so I just typed 'Heathrow' in the search bar - and ended up seeing loads of accounts either flying the Union Jack, GB News, or one of the Reform mob....or just loads of conspiracies, it's ****ing nuts. Musk has destroyed the place.
In which case, claiming ownership of a piece of land because it once belonged to our ancestors, is a delusional idea, no?
Europen Jews should have wondered into the Aussie outbacks or all that barren land in the States Leave the Palastinians in their homes
There’s been a few other attempts to establish a Jewish homeland. One in some remote part of Siberia that Stalin changed his mind about and started purging people. Britain had set something up for it to be in modern day Uganda somewhere. Prior to the Holocaust, Zionism was a pretty fringe belief. People were overall content in Europe and there were some thriving communities elsewhere such as Iraq who did real ethnic cleansing Israel could only dream of
This Is real ethnic cleansing too bro none of this my cleansing is better than yours please log in to view this image
'Content' is probably a stretch but the real balance of power lay in the hands of the Russian Jewish community, who at 5.5million strong were the largest in the world at the turn of the pre wars century and also - thanks to the Czar and insane church clergy - the most oppressed ethnic minority in all of Europe. Their suffering was unimaginable and as a result, Zionism took root and was extremely popular in Czarist Russia, even among the totally secular communists (hence the early kibbutz movement was modelled after the socialist collective farms). The whole Uganda Proposal at the Sixth Zionist Congress (1903) was only brought to the forum as an emergency measure to provide a safe haven for Russian Jews who were dying and or being conscripted to the Czar's armies (from the age of 8) in their thousands.
At face value that seems a perfectly reasonable statement, but I have to ask - have Fatah got their own reasons for wanting Hamas to give up Gaza? Will Fatah benefit from that politically?
Pre Gaza being turned into a demolition site, yes. Now? Far less so. A cynic would worry that Abbas and his cronies see this as a chance to siphon off more aid money. But I do think that this is sincere. Fatah have been a catastrophe for the Palestinians. This really is their last chance to show an inkling of responsible governance.
