Untrue. Firstly it's not a law it's guidance and secondly they are postponing it until legislation comes in to remove it.

I can I say a hearty congratulations to @Paul Chuckle. A giga own 17 years in the making.

This is like MLG's personal nightmare. His own words rising from the grave to haunt him. Hoisted by his own petard.

I don't agree but even if it were, what we see now from Israel and it's operations against Hamas is just as inevitable.

So mass kidnappings were justified? Fair enough because Hamas were provoked?

Tensions are irrelevant. It's about whether Hamas has the capability to undertake large scale terror attacks or mass kidnappings. I would say that the state of their organisation now makes that less likely at least in the short to medium term. Maybe we will see a spate of kidnappings and large scale terror attacks and you'll be correct. I haven't seen any evidence of that thus far.

The aim is to seriously degrade Hamas for a generation and put things in place so that Israelis are less at risk from terror attacks from Hamas. I'd say they are largely meeting those objectives albeit you are correct that ideally conflict would not occur. Sadly conflict is sometimes unavoidable.

Depends how much you degrade their ability to fight. Seems to me that further kidnapping are unlikely to happen again any time soon.

Remember you're only allowed to engage in a war if you have similar munitions and equipment. If there is a disparity between two sides, then one would think the weaker party to be pretty stupid for starting a war they were always going to lose.

He does it on purpose lynne.

Just an obvious troll.

In your fantasy scenario are Israel led by an elected terrorist organisation who killed and kidnapped hostages which they continue to hold without releasing them? Are you okay with the amount of civilians killed by the allies during World War 2?

I'm saying that very unfortunately virtually every war in history has collateral damage and that tragically innocents are killed. Is the ratio of innocent civilians to Hamas terrorists greatly higher than comparable urban wars on average? Or greatly lower?

Can second this. I went to a havant game last year and it was brilliant. Cheap to get in and get food and I had a chat with the subs bench on 70 minutes. Great value.

Hopefully a few more people will grasp the fact that there's a level of crossover here.

I saw that. Good to see that at least some of the Palestinians realise what the problem is here.

That's because for most people they are an afterthought.

Not sure you can blame the club for Wilcox leaving.

50 million would be excellent business given that it's pure profit in terms of FFP. That will go some way to compensate for the drop in revenue. If we did get 50 million would that be higher than the FFP profit we generated during the last relegation summer? I suppose we sold JWP which accounted for a chunk.

We need more of this.

Isn't one of the advantages of an electric car the fact that there are much less moving parts and thus need for spares?

Making reasonable and sensible steps over a good period of time in order to lessen our reliance on fossil fuels sounds like a good thing to do. That isn't what we are doing though is it and that's a strategic reason for doing it and has nothing to do with saving the planet or prevent extreme climate change which are the stated reasons given.

It's tantamount to fraud in my opinion but unfortunately there's political consensus from the major parties. Just making us poorer and our lives harder pointlessly

It would be silly to think of the past as perfect but there's been a growing problem over the last 15 years or so. I'd say the Internet is a huge part of it.

I've seen quite a few Democrat politicians calling for radical cuts in government spending and removing waste from a few years ago. I don't necessarily agree with DOGE but just interesting to note some of the loudest critics have video evidence of these people calling for that exact thing in the past. It's one reason to really dislike politics.
