  1. The two ethnic Pakistani men who attacked police offers at Manchester airport still haven't been charged.

  2. There's more free speech in Russia than in Britain. And vastly more respect for Christianity.

  3.  @alanmarr3323  Because she has ethnic loyalties other than to the British people. How can that not be obvious?

  4.  @davidsuber8756  Iraq was a war for their benefit in the first place.

  5. You're probably right but would you be surprised if you're wrong? I wouldn't. One thing the recent pandemic has taught us is that when we're told something is safe by pharmaceutical companies, we should run.

  7.  @DavidRyan-jp6vt  but how long should that really take when all the video is available?

  8.  @jimjones-bk2is  Another example of how we can't trust the police anymore.

  9.  @FredScuttle456  That's pretty typical when a country gets occupied. You could say the same for Ukraine or Yugoslavia or Belgium or Netherlands or Norway. The SS recruited divisions from all of them but also in all of them there were partisans fighting the Germans. Just the reality of war.

  10. 40,000+ killed in Gaza because of a few hundred Israelis killed on October 7, a third of whom were killed by their own military and half of whom were military personnel. Think about that before you talk about hypocrisy.

  11. Tens of thousands of French civilians especially in the north were killed by Allied, mainly British bombing in 1944.

  12.  @incurableromantic4006  So did the ancestors of the modern Palestinians.

  13. Guy I know who got bombed in Port Glasgow as an eight year old in 1941 is saying the same.

  14. Cool. so how do you explain the Israeli discussions about expelling the population of Gaza and taking over the land? How do you explain the hundreds killed in the West Bank over the past year even though Hamas is not there? And why are you shilling for this foreign country which regards the rest of us with contempt?

  15.  @simonh6371  Part of the reason is the US likes it that way.

  16. In all seriousness, the best outcome by far would have been to stay out of it. The Germans would have fought the Soviet Union and they would have exhausted each other. A lot of the reason Britain fought Germany was the fear that Hitler wanted the colonies lost at Versailles back. But without a huge navy which he didn't have, he had no means of getting them. We lost our empire anyway so it wouldn't have mattered if we'd given him some bits of Africa.

  17. You do know that the British fleet attacked the French fleet and killed thousands soon after the Vichy surrender right?

  18. You could turn the same argument on Israel.

  19.  @alanmarr3323  Why do you believe Navalny was murdered? There's literally zero evidence. Obviously Siberian prisons are very tough, unhealthy places where your life expectancy can expect to be shortened but that's not the same as murder. Then again, what about Peter Lynch?

  20. He has a long way to go

  21.  @demonshelby1311  Collective punishment against a civilian population for the actions of political leaders is a war crime. Also, you can only argue Hamas "started it" if you start your history in 2023. Obviously there are grievances on both sides going back to 1947.

  22.  @silversurfer640  When the Germans attacked the Soviet Union in 1941, there's pretty strong evidence the Soviet army was deployed to attack Germany, part of the reason for the high Soviet losses in the first month. e.g. European gauge tracks laid, large supply dumps close to the front line, forward airbases full of aircraft. A defensive deployment would have been quite different. From the archives the Soviet thinking in 1939 was that the West and the Germans would exhaust each other in prolongued First World War style attrition.

  23.  @demonshelby1311  Yeah anyone who goes back thousands of years to justify genocide in the modern world deserves contempt.

  24.  @jonathansimmons5353  That's ridiculous. You can learn a language in a few weeks if you're in total immersion. Two years is enough to learn a language to a very high level if you're studying it in addition to merely speaking it. But twenty years living somewhere might not be enough if you speak to eveyrone in Englisha and you make no effort. Look at how the Jehovah Witnesses train young Americans for their prosoletysing in different countries: intense immersion but quite short. Even for hard languages for an English speaker like Korean.

  25. We didn't drag the French into war in 1939. Most of the French cabinet (except Georges Bonnet) wanted the war as much as the British cabinet. Obviously they wanted the Poles to do the fighting rather than to do it themselves but they had the opportunity to tell the Poles they planned to keep out of it in the days before the war started just as Mussolini told Hitler he planned to keep Italy out. The French had a military commitment to launch a major attack on Germany by day 15 of the war - which they obviously didn't do. No country (including the USA) comes out of this without blame.

  26. @ Yeah Russian prisons are brutal for sure but that's a separate issue. I'm specifically talking about freedom of speech.

  28.  @demonshelby1311  Just because mass killings of civilians and other atrocities happen in war doesn't make it excusable. In the case of Gaza, much of this is quite deliberate. There is a vast amount of footage of unnecessary targeting of civilians and also, there is footage of IDF personnel admitting to committing atrocities. If this scale of atrocities were happening in Ukraine (a much, much larger war), there'd be outrage and the media would be full of it.

  29. The AI system was rejecting 90% of claims which forced people to appeal to get the money they're entitled to. This CEO's greed destroyed countless lives.

  31. @ No it's not, it's censored so people like you only ever get one side of the story. In reality BOTH sides tell outrageous lies and spread propaganda but this site in particular censors on behalf of one side. Even so there are plenty of places you can look even on YT to find the other side of the story. If you want to understand what's really happening you have to seek out both sides and compare them. On this topic you'll find there's plenty of substance to the complaints of the other side.

  32. Delusional. Israel is attacking neighbours without provocation to drag in America to fight Iran. Israelis occupying Syrian territory by force, something we criticise Russia for in Ukraine. And it has murdered tens of thousands of innocent people in Gaza.

  33. Yes they are, it's just that we've already lost most of both in Britain.

  36. Also lower mean intelligence.

  37.  @allthatjazz-7  Not free speech in Russia, just freer speech than in Britain

  38.  @abigailkannai484  Israel didn't even allow Gaza to have a seaport and open access to world trade. Hardly an independent country.

  39.  @harry130747  What you're claiming is not only irrelevant but also illogical. Do you think the Palestinian people just sprouted from the ground? Obviously their ancestors also existed 4000 years ago. A hundred years ago they were a large majority of the people in modern Israel. Jews were there too but they were a minority. The Palestinians were expelled by terror. Read Israeli historians like Benny Morris and Ilan Pappe.

  40.  @demonshelby1311  I agree with you on Ukraine too. The problem is, it's too late. There's no going back now, the war will just have to be fought out.

  41.  @candy-le4nh  The point is, the French did nothing. Maurice Gamelin had a commitment to the Poles to launch an invasion of Germany with the majority of his forces on day 15 of a war. He obviously lied, hoping the Poles would take the brunt of the German effort and wear the Germans down. Obviously things didn't work out like that, the Germans were stronger and the Poles were weaker than anyone (Poles, French or German) expected - but that was the plan. Also the Poles expected heavy bombing of the Ruhr from the start of the war. Instead the RAF and the pretty large French airforce dropped a few propaganda leaflets.

  42.  @simonmilligan7497  We could have just stayed out of it. In the days before the war, Britain wrote a blank cheque for Poland much like Germany did for Austria-Hungary in 1914. As a result the Poles wouldn't negotiate at all with the Germans even when they knew the Germans had a non agression pact with the Soviet Union obivously aimed at Poland. In fact, Britain actually sabotated any Polish/German negotiations (see Schulze-Rhonof the War with Many Fathers). Britain had good reasons for this of course but it wasn't the only option and in retrospect wasn't the best option.

  43. SOME people are obviously well food but likewise, there's plenty of footage of genuine starvation from Gaza too even though Israel has killed a couple of hundred journalists, deliberately wiped out internet connectivity and most Western social media censors footage. Obviously it can be true that some people can be starving while other people are well fed in fact there's probably never been a famine where this did not happen.

  44.  @shaunpatrick8345  Yeah shadow banning on YT is ridiculous especially on this topic, I should not even bother commenting

  45. ​ @wblake-j4g  This logic is embarrassing. That country is far from a civilised democracy and just because people vaguely related to the Palestinians are causing problems over here doesn't excuse them being subject to mass murder, torture and expropriation over there.

  46. I'm Scottish and speak French (badly) from what I experienced, people were really friendly in the north (Normandy, Brittany and Picardly), more hostile around Nice and in Paris. I wasn't long in the far east (the annexed Germany bits) but people there seemed pretty friendly too. Might depend a lot where you are.

  47.  @crowbar_the_skull  So it's obvious the system is not working in the interests of normal people. The Middle Class is getting crushed. Do you really want a society like the Roman Empire where there are a few plutocrats and millions of slaves?

  48. Unlikely because Israel has left not a single functioning hospital in Gaza.

  49.  @simongarthwaite7695  Sure but it was obvious to everyone good relations between Germany and the Soviet Union were temporary. Even if they never gone to war, they were balancing each other. As in forcing each other to keep large forces dedicated to defending against an attack by the other. This would have held German expansion in check without the necessity for Britain to go to war.

  50.  @careytitan9097  Both sides have released criminals from prison to fight at the front. Actually Britain did that in the First World War (not sure about the Second) and America did that in Vietnam.
