Thought Id start this one going because its rather dead on this board at the moment and I suppose all my usual muckers are either at the Stella tennis event watching Dim Tim (lose again) or at Henly Regatta eating cucumber sandwiches (they wish,...NOT).

Anyway please feel free to just talk to yourself blast away and let it go on any company or subject you wish. Just wish Id thought of this one before.

cheers GF.

Israel only as one strategy that's to bomb Iran , Has John Lennon said give peace a chance.

it's a shame that no american president in decades has had the balls to put israel in its place when warranted

Which place would that be?

back in its box (as warranted)!

Is that because of the Jewish vote and their money ?

no it is because they are a great country

it's certainly to do with the vote, but it really is a totally lily-livered approach to a most important international political issue (and others in the past)

Another Calais politician has launched a scathing attack on Britain for its policy on immigration which he claims attracts hundreds of illegal immigrants to the French Channel coast as they attempt to sneak into Britain.


Deputy mayor Philippe Mignonet, the man tasked with solving the problem in Calais, called UK policy on migrants 'grotesque and hypocritical'.

'Britain says we don't want immigrants but does nothing to prevent black economy employment yet two million people work on the black in Britain,' he said.

so what do the froggies do about re-exporting them whence they came? ..... not a lot

It's not about the Jewish vote more like Zionist pressure, thought that you would have known that Jeremy after the Thread we have on the subject.?

it's an interesting question as to when a jew who is interested in israel and its welfare and continuation, becomes a zionist - which is too often a pejorative term from a goy who supports hezbollah and the like :-)

just for the record, i am proud of my jewish ancestry, though i am embarrassingly ignorant of jewish history and custom, and even my grandparents' family history - records of which have long been destroyed in poland by one bunch of thugs or another

for all that, i absolutely will not support jewish charities, nor those for african countries, though for totally different reasons

Manuel,

It would be more important to know whether your ancestry is proud of you. But it is good to know you had grand parents.

Have to change my opinion of you.

8-)

Chatting with friends over the weekend with 230 years of history between us, I was reminded of many of the misdemeanours I committed 50-60 year ago. I am glad my near ancestors didn't know of them, at the time.

heaven forbid that you should change your opinion of me, lest perchance it should be for the better

A Royal British Legion worker approached a former Armed Forces minister following a Remembrance Day service and 'reimbursed' him for £7.20 in expenses he claimed after attending a previous ceremony.


Fiona Laing, 45, marched up to Sir Nick Harvey, 52, in front of other dignitaries, officials and members of the public, and gave him an envelope containing the money.

Brilliant! Yet another "Con" Party embarrising exposure moment today... Dorries on the fiddle this time. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-24902813

i wonder what she would have written to bambi had she been serving in iraq

I personally would suggest to Blair that all his earnings for the last ten years should be donated to and Iraq Fund for helping the Iraqis and British service individuals killed or maimed by his decisions.

I think the mistakes being made over expenses are due to stupidity or crookedness and corrupting society.

These individuals are not fit representatives of the public to govern.

They should be expelled from parliament and have pensions removed.

---------------

Personally, I would be happy for Blair to be charged and prosecuted and put before a court of law.

==============

But, I bet this would be part of the outcry.

help! help!! help!!!
fred and i almost agree on something :-)

Just the 'almost' spoils things. :-))
