  • In exchange, the US would potentially release to Libya billions of dollars of funds that were frozen more than a decade ago, NBC said.

    To whom, there are two "governments" there. After more than a year of genocide, and Hamas are still around, do they not think this will encourage the Palestinian youths to take up arms and fight to the death? Trump can fuck off with his bullshit "Riveira" plans.

  • Alcohol isn't everyone's friend, I was an alcoholic at 18, and refused to acknowlege that fact and kept denying it in the face of all the evidence. When I finally asked for help and quit drinking at 45, I realised how much of a mess I'd made of my life. Thankfully I've been sober since (going on 7 years now). Addiction is not a joke people.

  • Sure people act violently, it's in our nature, but when a "revered" figure calls for violence, it's more than likely many more people will act on it.

  • Surley you can't be serious! ;).

  • I clicked on the app link on the main page, and it gives a list of apps, some which collext.

  • Cheers, yeah I edited the title to say that basically, I'll test them out and see which i prefer.

  • As I've just read,Thunder is still being tweaked, I'm also on android, and ideally prefer an app that doesn't collect data. I guess it'll be trial and error for a while. Thanks.

  • Thanks, I've been looking at them, the only reason I decided against Boost is because it collects data. If I find Thunder to be not so user friendly I'llprobably switch.

  • Thank you, much appreciated.

  • "you should also point out that they’re BS though. Who cares whether Russia wants that or not, Ukraine is a sovereign state and they can make their own decisions, just like other former UDSSR states." My bad, I assumed that was a given.

  • The real hunger games, coming to an immigrant community near you soon!

  • True, although the line of puppetry is a little blurred between the US and Israel. While ultimately they rely heavily on the annual military aid, their influence in US politics is immense.

  • Believe me I know how the western population view Gaza, unfortunately they are unable to bring change about, when I mention the west etc, I am talking about the governments. Much like the millions that protested around the world prior the second Gulf war that ousted Saddam, the people were against it, but it went ahead anyway. I'm very happy with the recent comments by the Spanish premier calling Israel a genocidal state, but as long as the US veto remains, and European guilt (specifically Germany) means that Israel will seemingly have immunity no matter how many atrocities they commit.

  • I'm talking about the security gurantees for Ukraine to have the nukes removed, and Russia had always maintained they do not want Nato on their door step. I am not justifying anything, I am merely pointing out the talking points used by various parties.

  • I will accept that, as in fairness I haven't delved into that conflict deeply, on the surface it seems like the whole NATO push was to incite Russia in the first place, but again, I'm not too well versed in this. As for the blackmailing, that became pretty obvious when Trump took power but I'm unsure if that was the case before. Thanks for the info.

  • I actually got that, and that's why I mentioned common sense. Absolute freedom of speech cannot exisit in a world within most legal frameworks because people cannot be trusted to not act on violent rhetoric. ( January 6's attack on the US capitol is a prime example of the consequences of that).
