And why do you think, despite Gaza being terribly and horribly besieged at the hands of Israel, Egypt has been steadfast in their refusal to open the Rafah border?



This came at an extremely heavy and bloody cost to Egypt, and one they are adamant they want to avoid ever reoccurring.



Suggest you read up on the violence that occurred in Egypt in 2012-2013, that resulted in the highest number of casualties in Egypt's modern history, and literally hundreds and hundreds of Muslim Brotherhood members being sentenced to death alongside something like 15000-20000 Muslim Brotherhood members jailed. Also resulted in the execution of former President Morsi.




Yeah, nah.

If you seriously believe Egypt doesn't want to open its borders because of "Hamas" then I cannot tell you how much you are wrong.

The reason why it isn't opened is because that is exactly what Israel wants Chad.

They want the Palestinians out. Gone. Every single last one.
That is the point of the current war and the entire conflict going back to 1948.

What happened in Egypt in 2011 has absolutely nothing to do with Palestine and what has gone on.
None.

As I said if ever comes the day that Palestine becomes a state and therefore has an army, none of its neighbours would have an issue with it. None.
The only constant is Israel.

We disagree.

Everywhere has problems of some sort

The Most Liveable Cities in the World in 2024: Discover Top Quality of Life Locations Globally

Find out which cities are deemed the most liveable in the world in 2024 by the Economist Intelligence Unit.

www.archdaily.com

Melbourne is the 4th most liveable city and Sydney the 7th

For many years Melbourne was no 1

Melbourne received a score of 97.5 out of 100 on the annual list, which assesses stability, healthcare, culture and environment, education and infrastructure in 140 different cities.

https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/worlds-most-livable-cities-2017/index.html

Why do some people take the Economic itelligence unit seriously.
its just one very inaccurate survey.
For a start its based on a few British expats experience.
So if the country doesnt have alot of people that speak English such as Madrid its already down on alot of brownie points.
I didnt know speaking a certain language automatically gives you a better quality of life.
Secondly its based on living within the cbd .
Thirdly how can you not laugh at the EIU when they give Melbourne an almost perfect score for infrastucture and climate.
There are zillions of surveys proclaiming different cities to have the best quality of life.
Its all alot of bull. And these surveys all have some sort of correlation with these cities.
Even Melbournians dont take this survey seriously.
I finally returned to Madrid 4 years ago after living in Melbourne for 8 years.
The infrastructure in Melbourne is terrible.
The climate very grey and miserable most of the year not forgetting the terrible wind.
Restaurants are very average with mostly cheap representations of Asian cuisine.
Shops that close super early except on Thursdays and Fridays.
Melbourne is also quite boring concerning nightlife.
Melbournians are also prisoners of debt with their ridiculously high mortgages on houses.
Madrid has a much better and sunnier climate.
Fantastic public transport with zillions of buses , one of the best metros in the world and the second largest high speed train network on the planet.
Fantastic restaurants.
Shopping centres that close at 10 pm seven days a week.
Fantastic day trips.
Beautiful historic architecture.
Nightlife that has no equal.
And an unbelievable street life 24 hours a day.
Youre also a short plane ride to all the major cities in Europe.
The only thing Melbourne has over Madrid is its much easier to find work.
Just google cities with the best quality of life and youll see the amount of different cities that appear depending on the different studies undertaken.
The Australian media is also pathetically manipulative.

This never works out well

US President Joe Biden has agreed to give Ukraine anti-personnel land mines, a US defence official told the BBC,

The stuff about when and where Nazis can or cannot be mentioned is stomach churning.

As I said, this is the thread where I was told Oskar Dirlewanger is just some old Nazi dude and some Ukranian troops wearing Dirlewanger Brigade insignia ... which they to this day ... is ok.

It's the worst thing I've seen on BF tbh.

(Replying in the correct thread)

The rules in the SRP thread about the use of 'Nazi' accusations/insults isn't "stomach churning".

What's stomach churning is calling people who support Ukraine "Nazis" unilaterally. It's real bad-faith, disingenous argument crap, and signals that anyone who does so can't defend their Russian fandom without resorting to nonsense.

Plain and simple.

We've covered this ground over and over and over again.

Ukraine struck weapons dumps and stockpiles with the ATACMS missiles.

Ignoring the nonsense about Russia responding with nuclear weapons, if they pulverise Kyiv (which is not a military target) in response then that will be an actual example of reckless escalation.

 

[Sphynx]

Cry more Putin.

Allowing ATACMS after you have conscripted 10,900 North Koreans into the front lines seems like a like for like escalation.

Have you read the reports that they’re addicted to pr0n because it’s the first time they have proper internet access?

More surprised that Ukraine needs to get them from the US tbh.

 

[Chadwiko]

Seeing some reports that Ukraine successfully used UK-supplied Storm Shadow missiles to take out a joint Russian/North Korean command center in the Kursk region.

Unconfirmed reports that North Korea's Generals that are attached to the troops were taken out.
