    War declared, Israel v Palestine...

    Apocalyptic loon John Hagee mixes at the heart of the US (and Israeli) government. Here he is last week with Speaker of the House Johnson. Hagee will no doubt have called for Congress to bomb Iran to usher in the end times. As in that is likely literally what he will have done. :confused:

    Tramhaus appear to be a top Dutch indie-esque band... 👍

    Steve Davis talks us through his record collection

    A famous Sondek owner. Or at least, he used to be. Looks like he has now moved on.

    What have they done with Sir Keir's neck? :confused:

    Tory leadership failure Part V: Rishi ‘Infosys’ Sunak

    Relax. Apparently he's not calling an election. Merely appealing for your vote by letting you know you can trust a billionaire to be really mean to the desperate. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/politics/breaking-rishi-sunak-hold-surprise-32307304

    All purpose football thread 2023/24 Season

    Offside by a toe. Or maybe a toe nail. Perhaps they should measure the players feet and deduct the difference in sizes before deciding offsides in future? :confused: Good post:

    The may possibly have been true at the start, but it isn't now. Deaths aren't continuing at the scale of the first few months. Not really been since the US told Israel to behave better around January-ish. The Tigray war in Ethiopia, for example, may have killed up to 600,000 in less than 2...

    Tory weirdness and corruption + a further SNP arrest https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-68850088 If When Rayner is cleared, the Labour boost will be big. Labour will be seen as the (relatively more) honest party.

    UN says today there has been "near complete destruction" of Gaza. https://www.ochaopt.org/sites/default/files/OPT_Flash_Appeal_2024_EN.pdf If this were a 'normal' war, Hamas would have surrendered and/or Israel would have set up an occupation regime. It's classic scorched earth tactics by...

    War declared, Israel v Palestine...

    Sounds as if Israel will be bombing Iran very soon. "...a retaliatory move could come “as soon as Monday.” In an unsourced report, Channel 12 claimed the war cabinet has decided to hit back “clearly and forcefully” against Iran with a response designed to send the message that Israel “will not...

    Wharfedale Diamonds in (yes, in) bizarre Cornflake Shop stands

    As I recall, the Cornflake Shop didn't sell Linn back then. Possibly for Royds, which they did sell. Though that stand looks so small, it might be made specifically for Diamonds.

    It's possible we will see a major attack on Iran. Iran is Amalek and thus needs destroying before the Messiah comes. I would not be surprised if there are people in the Israeli cabinet that believe this nonsense. Ben Gvir et al. Perhaps Netanyahu himself. This opinion piece was considered...

    War declared, Israel v Palestine...

    Israel has just approved 'offensive' action in response. "Over the last two hours, we approved operational plans for both offensive and defensive action." We will have to wait and see just how offensive it is and whether Iran responds with greater force as promised. If Israel's action is...

    I reckon it's mostly a fireworks show by Tehran. It's got the headlines but seems to be very little impact militarily. But Israel and Iran are now more or less at war. At some point, Israel is going to bomb Iran's nuclear programme big time.

    Labour Leader: Keir Starmer VII

    I suppose we should be grateful that this evening's big breaking news is 'Angela Rayner says she will step down as Labour's deputy leader if she is found to have broken electoral law' rather than events in the Middle East. She assures us she is innocent. And if she is found innocent, I can see...
