  1. If your asking me that because you genuinely don't know - both sides lay claim to Temple Mount, those critters have been scrapping and shitting out there for thousands of years
  2. that hasn't stopped Israel killing those enemies not in uniform in gaza - the breeding machines in plain clothes - enemy number one, storing up trouble for the future. Anyway lets accept that your point of view is more valid than mine, now I can go and get thrashed again by the bots on Chess.com
  3. I hadn't seen that no. But what I'm asking you is to imagine how you'd feel if you were a Hamas fighter - so you think the US and Israel are trying to steal your homeland, but you know you can't possibly overcome their far superior military. It's like the people living in the Amazon rainforest, they probably get their wives by wacking them on the back of the head with a club and dragging them off in the bushes for a bit of intimate pleasure, but that heinous act doesn't make it right for armed Brazilians to go in there and clear the land they have been living on for thousands of years, just because the newcomers to the forest have superior weapons.
  4. why does it have to be either? If it's total war anything is fair game
  5. that is your opinion - you are not alone in thinking this! Before the cease fire there was a story of a Palestinian woman who went into labour and needed a caesarian section - they had to cut her open and stitch her up without anaesthetic, because the Israeli terrorists had stopped aid entering the enclave.
  6. I know my views arise from incomplete understanding, but when the whites first colonised SA they took huge swathes of land away from the blacks, in a similar fashion the Israelis are pushing Arabs out of the West Bank and trying to make Gaza uninhabitable too. No doubt the blacks who tried to prevent the Afrikaners taking their land were called terrorists too. Imagine how it was for the blacks back then - with newly arrived whites pushing them out of their ancestral homelands. They were unable to dominate the armed whites, just as the Palestinians cant fight the might of US supplied bombs
  7. yes my thoughts arent hard to guess, Ireland, South Africa. But now in the UK the new colonists are subjecting us to apartheid, if the mosque builders become the majority they will confiscate loads of land. I predict unimaginable suffering across the globe forever. Still, suffering is better than no life at all
  8. Yes Hamas realise they are outgunned - a bit like all of Europe was outgunned when Germany started on through in 1939. Hamas are portrayed negatively for terrorism in Western media, but imagine yourself in their position - to my mind Hamas are in a position similar to the native american indians in the 1800's - the indians hated being pushed off their land, but were totally outgunned. Make the white man fight hand to hand to make it a fair fight
  9. one way to try to make a portawrap suffice in the absence of a bollard
  10. he asked for 441c, doubt that would fit
  11. yes I do - but you can't have it as it's staying on my saw it's only £130 on back order, think of how much wood you can cut for such a small outlay, although it is a bit annoying that a Chinese copy can be had for around £50 for the older 044 here is a thread with a teardown of MS441C , apparently fuel tank takes some doing to get off https://opeforum.com/threads/a-dummy-and-the-stihl-ms441c.25651/page-4
  12. the european settlers moved native americans out the way, now one of the settlers descendents wants to clear some arabs off a piece of land. Trump doesnt like it when its not the whites doing the land clearing - threatening to stop funding South Africa. The whites knew how to dominate by force during apartheid. In a fair world the Africans and Arabs could join forces, take the fight to Trump and invade Mar a Lago, level the site and grow crops. But this isnt a fair world - its the natural world
  13. The U.S. contributes about one-sixth of NATO’s annual budget, not two-thirds, as claimed in social media posts. Washington finances 15.8% of the military alliance’s yearly expenditure of around $3.5 billion. It’s the joint largest share, alongside Germany’s, according to a NATO breakdown for 2024
  14. The Wall St Journal are not impressed with Trumps latest decisions The Dumbest Trade War in History Trump will impose 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico for no good reason. President Trump will fire his first tariff salvo on Saturday against those notorious American adversaries . . . Mexico and Canada. They’ll get hit with a 25% border tax, while China, a real adversary, will endure 10%. This reminds us of the old Bernard Lewis joke that it’s risky to be America’s enemy but it can be fatal to be its friend. Leaving China aside, Mr. Trump’s justification for this economic assault on the neighbors makes no sense. White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt says they’ve “enabled illegal drugs to pour into America.” But drugs have flowed into the U.S. for decades, and will continue to do so as long as Americans keep using them. Neither country can stop it.
  15. thanks for that horticultural insight - is this a discovery made through years of observation, or did you read it in a book?
  16. even though it's still winter, here are some flowers that have come up, why can't people just wait till the official time for posting in this thread? They don't want a 'flowers in winter' thread when spring can be put to use out of season.
  17. if FR Jones can go under, a little local shop can too, so maybe they won't want my suggestion of stocking something like these pruners with claimed safety feature of not working if your finger touches the blades expensive compared to the cheapy Amazon ones, and I'm sure the Bluebird ones are probably available cheaper in Europe, although they are still cheaper than the pro Bahco version Bluebird PS 22-32C Battery Pruner 16V WWW.TRACMASTER.CO.UK DESCRIPTION The PS 22-32C is an extremely well built and powerful pruner that is more than capable of tackling the toughest of jobs. The build quality is second to none with the...
  18. ^Banyard they have probably updated this book now, at the time it came out the new devices were still being developed, maybe worth buying and going through before paying out for a course Edit - can't see a newer edition on sale, so over 10 years old and probably a bit dated now
  19. it doesn't matter what ideas the humans have, or what their actions are - too many of them trying to live on one land mass will mean even more sewage Net migration to push UK population to 72.5m, ONS projects WWW.BBC.CO.UK Projections suggest the UK population could grow by almost five million over the next decade.
  20. for cutting back hard I use single sided HS86R (now HS87R), will cut about an inch thick bay, cherry laurel, griselinia, privet etc, but not inch thick hawthorn, beech etc
  21. Trump is clever enough to sort Gaza and basically the whole world eventually "You’re talking about a million and half people, and we just clean out that whole thing," Trump said.
  22. Trump is so evil he won't even tell the truth about Starmer being evil Donald Trump has raised hopes in London that he could have a constructive relationship with the UK, telling reporters he liked Sir Keir Starmer “a lot” and that he could travel to Britain on his first foreign trip since returning to the White House. Trump, who said he would speak to the UK prime minister “in the next 24 hours”, said of Starmer: “He’s liberal, which is a bit different from me, but I think he’s a very good person and I think he’s done a very good job thus far.”
  23. It was a nightmare trying to get those pirated games to load - usually because it was a copy of another pirated copy courtesy of a twin cassette player. Anyone who had a Spectrum or similar wants a trip down memory lane - I've wasted even more time on the online emulators - the whole tiny programs run flawlessly in a web browser, no cassette tape required. The only way I could complete Manic Miner as a kid was when someone threw me a bone in the form of a poke code, stop the tape during loading, type a simple code line, and then load with unlimited lives. Manic Miner (DOS) - online game | RetroGames.cz WWW.RETROGAMES.CZ Manic Miner is a platform game originally written for the ZX Spectrum by Matthew Smith and released by Bug-Byte in 1983 (later re-released by Software Projects). It is the first game in...
