I know you're just reporting your acquaintance's opinion not stating your own, but I have to say I don't think that's plausible. The number of settlers already in the West Bank, plus the fact that the Israeli right wing consider that region to be the true historic core of Biblical Israel and...

It's unclear from what you wrote - who would get which bit of land in this swap, in the opinion of your friend?

I have read that large numbers did manage to escape out to Egypt. There are ways to be smuggled out, for people with money, or in some cases people with second passports could leave. I don't know the numbers but it would account for part of the drop in population. But not all of it.

yeh didn't really think I was telling you something you didn't know, just thinking aloud

There is no legal obligation, it's complete bollocks. To be honest, I would argue that if anything it's the countries that armed and supported the carpet bombing that have an obligation to help the refugees created as a result. But that's not a question of law, just morality - not something with...

For reasons best known to himself, Trump decided during the election campaign to insult Schumer by calling him a Palestinian, presumably because he was insufficiently supportive of Israel's various war crimes (although in actual fact like most mainstream Democrats, he was very supportive). Now...

15 years before you can apply for citizenship is fucking mental. Even here - arguably a more racist and xenophobic country than the UK, at least at a societal level - it's 5 years. (Though the CDU want to increase that).

A lot of the players are knackered. Luckily we’ll spend the summer pasting giants of world football like Al Nasr and the Iowa City Hotdogs in the definitely real and highly prestigious World Club Cup. The players are sure to come back refreshed.

Just as long as Pep isn’t palming us off with the same excuses

It's true the end of a cycle, and players aging, was inevitable. That's all the more reason why the consistent failure to strengthen the squad in key positions over a few years should be criticised.

also depending what dates in February you are there, you could try and catch a film at the Berlinale. I've seen some great stuff there over the years I have been here. can be hard to get tickets though. https://www.berlinale.de/en/home.html

Alexanderplatz is definitely central, but I would recommend staying somewhere just to the north west of it, as that area itself is a bit lacking in character. Maybe somewhere closer to Rosa Luxemburg Platz, Weinmeisterstraße or Hackescher Markt. Unfortunately I don't know hotels though as I've...

So in conclusion, when Burnham said in the tweet to which you objected "City benefited from significant public investment linked to the Commonwealth Games. What they have added to that has been great for Manchester." he was right.

Of course City benefited from public investment linked to the games; unless you think the club was in a position in 2003 to finance the whole stadium ourselves. 1 billion quid over a 250 year lease, if that's the sum, is not that much money over that time period.

Ich komme aus Manchester mate: it's not illegal to migrate to Germany, the AfD aren't in charge (yet).

struggling to understand how any fan of any club could give a toss about the feelings or opinions of fans of another club on another continent.

Leaving aside whether the HJS is "respected" (given its association with Douglas Murray, Raheem Kassam, etc, I don't agree), the authors of that report don't appear to have much relevant expertise, and their methodology is dubious. For example they list a couple of examples out of tens of...

The starting point for a murder with a knife brought to the scene by the offender is 25 years tariff, (which can go up or down for aggravating or mitigating circumstances.)

I'm curious about his Cayman Islands clients

without googling, can you name a single scholar who is known for writing about critical race theory or intersectionality, and/or can you describe what those things actually mean?
