Opti, read this:

From the Telegraph
"A convicted terrorist is suing a pub called The Saracen’s Head Inn over its “deeply offensive” sign.

Khalid Baqa, who was previously jailed for distributing jihadist propaganda, is claiming £1,850 over the depiction of “a brown-skinned bearded Arab”.

Saracen is a term used to describe an Arab or Muslim, particularly at the time of the Crusades."

General Discussion Area / South Korea declares martial law

« on: 03 December 2024, 16:17:54 »

That came out of the blue. In the words of our resident conspiracy theorists "What do they know that we don't?"

It appears to me that the president may be trying to settle an internal dispute by blaming the bogeyman. We'll see

General Discussion Area / Idiotic so called scientists

« on: 24 November 2024, 07:17:47 »

I was reading an article about the micro plastics that we inhale every day in our homes, from synthetic carpets to foam cushions to clothes, etc. No one is sure of the damage they cause.
Idiotic comment from random investigative scientist ""I don't think you need to go and rip up every piece of plastic in your house," she said. "It's not financially viable.
"But I do think it's of concern. If we are exposed every day for our whole lives and we live to 80, 90 years old, what does that mean?

It means that you have lived till 90, so no harm done, you stupid twot.

The incident, disclosed by North Wales Police under freedom of information laws, comes as police face increasing scrutiny for their handling of “hate” incidents.I'm

General Discussion Area / Iran attempting to assassinate Trump

« on: 08 November 2024, 18:39:03 »

Just how far is the US going to let these bastards go without showing them that they are nothing more than upstarts? I am shocked and appalled that they think they could actually get away with this. I hope Trump comes down hard, and that Putin realises that getting into bed with these fanatics was/is a very dangerous decision.
