BM - always be wary of quotes without references. I just feel so sorry for those millions of Americans that are being manipulated by their regime that's backboned by the Jewish Zionist lobby. And I swear it's EQUAL to Al Qaeda, in fact Al Qaeda is American made after all, so it all makes sense after...

No, I don't know whether the Brits have Pakistani passports either. That is why I meticulously used the words Jack Straw used 'Pakistani heritage'. My simple assumption (and I'm prepared to have egg on my face later) is that IF the pervs were NOT Brits, the Daily Mail brigade will be blazing this fa...

You've got to admire his creativity, but I question his judgement though. It would be obvious to most posters that if they didn't include the smileys and the context they'd be found out.

Sigh.

Ok, let's try and bring the topic back to the IDF killing the poor old man in Hebron. As for the Hebron thing, this topic is about the IDF killing some man in his bed. I replied that it wasn't only the IDF that made mistakes in war situations. What's Hebron got to do with it? They killed him and it ...

I've no idea what Jack had in mind when he used the words 'Pakistani heritage' - but to me it read like a euphemism for British lads who BM might consider to be foreign ;). I've got to ask, and please don't be offended, but did you actually read the whole article you posted? You seem to be unaware o...

shafique

^If I had known just asking whether you had read the article you posted would have short-circuited the discussion, I'd have asked much earlier!

Enjoy the vino.

I concede, my last sentence in the OP in brackets should have contained a proviso (IF this is determined to be a hate crime then... ) - mea culpa. However, the rest of that post was quite carefully worded, and it is interesting to see what the reactions have been to the thread title and indeed the p...

shafique

^I agree with the 'ultimately it doesn't matter what skin colour' comments - absolutely. I also point out again that the evidence in the article in OP states that Jack Straw was off the mark when HE highlighted the 'white girls' as victims, as the victims also include Asian girls - AND that the prob...

Stop digging when you find yourself in a hole BM. 1. The IDF have admitted to their c.ock up - they went to the wrong apartment and shot the guy in his bed by 'mistake'. They are sorry for this c.ock up. 2. The shooting took place in Hebron - an area that is under Israeli Military Occupation. 3. I'm...

Well, like I said - let's see some constructive measures to tackle the problem highlighted. Why quibble over the fact that we are looking at 17 prosecutions over 23 years, involving 50 'Pakistani heritage' Brits. Lovers of stats will note this is less than one trial a year. But given that one detect...

shafique

Hey, I'm not doubting the info - I'm saying given it is a 'tidal wave', I'll happily support any constructive measures put in place to stop it. Of course, I'd also support more convictions - surely they can try and get the figures up to one conviction a year - but that is not tackling the underlying...

shafique

I think the word you were looking for was 'facts'.

As noted elsewhere, ad hominem attacks seem to be the only recourse some have when presented with evidence! LOL

Again, I'm left thinking that someone has hijacked my account and posted something stating that I absolve all British criminals if they happen to be 'pakistani heritage' or even if they are 'moooslim'! :shock: I'll just wait to hear what the constructive measures to prevent these Brits from committi...

Focusing on some positive developments in regards to East Jerusalem, EU diplomats have come up with a sensible proposal. This echoes the swathe of countries in South America which recently have chosen to diplomatically recognise the State of Palestine as existing within the 4 June 1967 green line - ...

shafique

Hey, at least the diplomatic moves by the Palestinians are gaining momentum.

What will be interesting, will be seeing whether the proposed UN resolution condemning the building of settlments/colonies on land under Military Occupation will go through.

^ Enlightening. It's actually something that has been going on for years - but has been improving lately (but is still bad). I remember that when Khomeni issued the Fatwa against Rushdie, our mosque held a press conference and the print and tv did turn up. The Imam addressed them and said that he fu...

shafique

^DD - been there, done that - with MOE. Totally agree. We lived in Springs and it took us a few visits to work out how to get in and out without the 'look we want to go there, why do we keep passing it' stage! Once we found the way in and out, it was ok - until Salik was launched and we had to go th...

You're a bit behind the curve on this one zubber - apparently Israel radio is reporting that the 'spy' is being released (hopefully it hasn't been tortured!)

^I'm shocked drew.

Bay City Rollers!! You probably also remember Noel Edmond's swap shop?!

(would be too crude to suggest 'blood on the dancefloor'?? - yes probably).

Anyway - back to the topic - I hope that mum and baby are now doing ok, shocking story.

cheers,

Or plucked and roasted!

I have to say, I agree with BM on this point. A number of the girls were 'in care' - i.e. in state homes and not under the influence of the families. Hence the references to 'vulnerable' girls. Men in gangs targetting vulnerable girls (which the original article points out includes Asian girls) is i...

Berrin - we are where we are. The Arab side recognised this fact and proposed a comprehensive peace plan in 2000. This was based on international law and UN resolutions - but also allowed for flexibility, with the Palestinian side willing to give away/exchange what they are entitled to under Interna...

The title "Jewish Congress woman" was taken from a couple of Haaretz headlines. I didn't insert it - but I did choose to use it. It is factual - and indeed it is as relevant as the use of Muslim in other headlines (think about it - I agree with you). I don't view any of my posts in this th...

shafique

I would not have known the Congresswoman was Jewish had I not seen the Haaretz articles first - indeed the news coverage generally has been notable for not mentioning the religions of the victims or the shooter. I contrast that with the posts and headlines that immediately ascribe blame to religions...

^Tiswas, it was. With a young Lenny Henry as well, IIRC.

(We're going further and further off topic...

Every little helps.

Sometimes I feel sorry for the 'grunts' as it were. These kids sometimes do commit crimes and occasionally are tried for it.

But those that send them there or those that cause the death of thousands of civilians get away scot free.

Wow - can all Geordies and notherners tell the difference between a veggie burger and a chicken burger in a bun, by sight! To me, both look like 'batter' covered 'patties' !! ;) I'm impressed! I knew Geordie lasses have evolved to the point that they don't need over-coats on a Friday night in the mi...

Well, I'll be blown. I was scratching my head as to how the Islamphobes would factor in a Moooslim angle into a thread about a white dude shooting a white congresswoman and killing 6 civilians in Arizona - in a targetted assassination attempt. And yet they did it!! You've got to hand it to them -a c...

It is not often I get to quote from 'theregister.co.uk' - or even from something that happened in the CES in Las Vegas. However, the leaders of Cisco, GE, and Xerox are worried that the US is losing its competitive edge, and that it's high time to stop grandstanding and do something about it. They c...
