Elon Musk-funded most cynical PAC of the U.S. election: contrasting ads show Arab American voters that Kamala Harris is too pro-Israel — and to Jewish voters that she is too pro-Palestinian

  • I didn't know he had US citizenship.

  • Isn't that foreign interference in the election, what with him being born in South Africa?

    • Fifth peacekeeper wounded by Israeli forces in southern Lebanon, UN says

    Jump

  • No, you're thinking of NATO. But nobody should be shooting at UN forces. If the UN had any balls, they'd not have let Israel (or Hamasl) in there in the first place. Israel are just taking the piss now and they'll continue until they've decided otherwise.

  • It would appear that Israel will be allowed free rein.

    I used to feel supportive of them. Not anymore though. Not a supporter of Hamas either.

    Religion has a lot to answer for.

    • Middle East: IDF concerningly close to Irish troops in Lebanon

    Jump

  • So does that mean this UN mission has failed then? A quick look suggests they are supposed to be keeping Hezbollah out of the picture and Israeli forces out of Lebanon. All of it wasted, there are over 10000 UN personnel there. Since they first went there in 1978 it seems they've been as much use as a sock on a fish.

    • We're drowning in reusable bags. Are bag profits preventing big grocers from adopting solutions?

    Jump

  • I’m confused why they keep buying more reusable bags when they forget to bring some.

    I see you've met my wife. I have about a dozen in the boot of my car. I even had one in my hand the other day but she still bought a couple in Asda. One of them didn't even make it to the car!

    It's a constant struggle.

    • Russia’s new ideological battlefield: The militarization of young minds

    Jump

  • This has been going on in some form or another for quite some time. There is an excellent BBC documentary by David Dimblebly from a few years ago that is worth watching. He travelled across Russia and this was going on all over. Ex military in schools teaching weapons drill and love for the motherland. Nor sure when it changed from motherland to fatherland. Maybe when Putin decided to come out of the nazi closet.

  • If he never fired a shot it isn't really an assassination attempt is it? Intended quite possibly, but not an actual attempt.

    Others are asking how a person with a firearm came within 500m of the former president. Every time he goes out there are people with firearms closer than 500m, and I don't mean Secret Service or Police.
