yeah, Contra Mundum has a thing for her. When she was the junior associate sleeping with the national partner at Mallesons or Freehills she may have thrown Contra a bone, a little like the Pulp lead singer Jarvis Cocker sang of Common People and his time at Central St Martins art school, and doing drugs on the mons of the aristocracy. Crap song, crap band, but interesting motif.

think Contra confirmed, she was not the whip type for BDSM, but the paddle type. :D

As long as Contra posts the pics I will be satisfied.

Thigh boots of course.

GAZA CITY — Israeli forces shelled a U.N.-run school filled with Palestinian refugees in the northern part of the Gaza Strip on Thursday, killing at least 15 people and wounding more than 100, Palestinian officials said.

Several shells hit the school run by the U.N. Relief and Works Agency in Beit Hanoun, the Gaza Health Ministry said. Officials said the school was filled with women and children who had fled their homes to escape more than two weeks of fighting between Israel and Hamas, the militant Palestinian Islamist group that runs the Gaza Strip.

At least four people died on operating tables at the Beit Hanoun hospital, officials said after the shelling.

“Such a massacre requires more than one hospital to deal with it,” said Ayman Hamdan, director of the Beit Hanoun hospital, Reuters news agency reported. He said various other medical centers around Beit Hanoun were also receiving wounded people.

More than 140,000 Palestinians have fled their homes because of the fighting, and many of them have sought refuge in buildings run by UNWRA.

all because israel won't give up their blockade

Overall, the survey finds that most Muslims see no inherent tension between being religiously devout and living in a modern society. Nor do they see any conflict between religion and science. Many favor democracy over authoritarian rule, believe that humans and other living things have evolved over time and say they personally enjoy Western movies, music and television

Few U.S. Muslims voice support for suicide bombing or other forms of violence against civilians in the name of Islam; 81% say such acts are never justified, while fewer than one in ten say violence against civilians either is often justified (1%) or is sometimes justified (7%) to defend Islam. Around the world, most Muslims also reject suicide bombing and other attacks against civilians. However, substantial minorities in several countries say such acts of violence are at least sometimes justified, including 26% of Muslims in Bangladesh, 29% in Egypt, 39% inAfghanistan and 40% in the Palestinian territories.

Where is the bit about 25 percent of Muslims being 'Radical'?

I wouldnt have thought this is an overrepresenation of people thinking violence against civilians is often justifiable. The numbers are probably representative of all faiths in the relevant countries.

For example many people think Hiroshima was 'justified' and it clearly targetted civilians. Plenty of support for the death penalty in the USA from the Christian right, and we've already seen comments from some Israeli Jews on a story about dead Palestinian children.

The Edukator are you now willing to condemn the IDF and admit that the attacks you once called surgical are in fact nothing of the kind and more random firing in a general direction. In recent days we have seen them hit a hospital and now a UN school. Will the IDF be held to account, hell no because the USA will veto any UN resolution and the IDF will protect its own regardless of war crimes.

Israel is a terrorist state just like so many others in the region, say thinking they are better is a lie.
