      It is quite exceptional for somebody who wants to be PM and has been in govt to talk about special forces operations like this.

      Now, I am off to lunch so I can’t look at the thread more, but the combo of KGM, Meesh, BBC and a Tory aspirant on allegations on troops sounds well dodgy a brew.

      I shall return.

        Col. Jessup : Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who’s gonna do it? You? You, Lt. Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know; that Santiago’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, *saves lives*. You don’t want the truth because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words like honor, code, loyalty. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it! I would rather you just said “thank you” and went on your way, Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand a post. Either way, I don’t give a *damn* what you think you are entitled to!

    Muslims and mass rape (again, how many times now ?)

    Who’da thought it eh ?

    “Hezbollah terrorists engaged in sex slavery, rape, mass murder of Syrians.

    ‘Hezbollah perpetrated rape, mass sexual abuse and committed ethnic cleansing,’ expert says.

    JERUSALEM—Photos of Syrians celebrating the assassination of Hezbollah terrorist leader Hassan Nasrallah last week put the spotlight on the brutal activities of the terror group’s role in sex slavery, mass starvation and kidnappings in the Syrian civil war which led to the deaths of over half a million Syrians.

    Walid Phares, a leading expert on Hezbollah and Lebanon, told Fox News Digital that Hezbollah has “committed ethnic cleansing” in Syria. He said Hezbollah “was behind the uprooting of millions of Syrians, of all communities, mainly Sunni. They have perpetrated rape. They have perpetrated mass sexual abuse, including keeping sexual slaves.” ”

    “The Iranian-backed Hezbollah terrorist entity is mainly known in America for bombing the U.S. Embassy in Beirut, which killed 63 people in 1983, and the Marine barracks bombing in Beirut also in 1983, resulting in the murders of 241 U.S. military personnel.

    A new investigative video series by the Center for Peace Communications (CPC) shines a rare light on the U.S.-designated terrorist movement Hezbollah’s role in sexual slavery, rape and mass murder. The shocking expose about Hezbollah’s enslavement of a Syrian woman aired days after Israel reportedly launched devastating explosions of pagers held by thousands of Hezbollah terrorists across Lebanon in September.

    CPC President Joseph Braude told Fox News Digital “Hezbollah’s war on Israel obscures its larger war to subjugate much of the region — as a tyrant in Lebanon, an occupier in Syria, a mafia of sex and drug trafficking, and the nerve center of Iran’s Arab empire. Millions of Arabs whose lives have been shattered by the militia want a different future. Hezbollah does not want the world to hear their voices.”

    “Hezbollah took the side of the Syrian dictator Bashar Assad after civilians launched a protest movement in 2011 to secure democracy in the highly repressive nation.

    Hezbollah terrorists aided Assad in his scorched-earth campaign to wipe out opposition to his regime, resulting in the killing of over 500,000 people. Syria is now a fragmented and war-ravaged country.

    The fundamental corruption and mafia-style criminality of Hezbollah’s global organization has been examined by Matthew Levitt, the director of the Reinhard Program on Counterterrorism and Intelligence at The Washington Institute.

    He published a 2018 report on “Hezbollah’s Corruption Crisis Runs Deep.” Levitt noted that “some prominent figures in Hezbollah are involved in horrific criminal enterprises, including trafficking in sex and human beings.” He cited the example of Hezbollah official Ali Hussein Zeaiter, who according to media reports, was linked to “a large prostitution network, mainly employing Syrian women.”

    James Cleverly has said he would abolish the licence fee if he won the Tory leadership contest and eventually became prime minister.

    Mr Cleverly made the remarks as he faced questions from Christopher Hope, the political editor of GB News, and Tory members on the penultimate day of the party’s annual conference in Birmingham.

    Asked about the future of the licence fee, he replied: “It’s going. And I said this when I was first elected. I had a delegation from the BBC come along to me when I was a new MP, and they did the usual thing, ‘because of the unique way in which the BBC is funded…’

    “And I said to them at the time, this was back in 2015, I said if I were you at the next renegotiation of the licence fee, I would start your planning to be a subscription service. You have a back catalogue of some of the best television in the world.

    “If Disney and Netflix can make money on the subscription model the BBC should because in the era of streaming services, the tax to watch television is an unsustainable one.”

    A question we keep hearing being asked is “How does making steel abroad then shipping it here to reduce our carbon emissions help in tackling global warming” (cooling/climate change, insert this weeks word)

    The answer is always some waffle, maybe about leading the World or some other catchphrase.

    My complaint is that the questioner NEVER follows up on whatever rubbish they are given as an answer.
    There is no answer that shows the global carbon is reduced, only moved from one place to another, and then add on the shipping costs.
    Why do they always let them off with their piss poor answers.

    Also, now we’ve shut our last coal power generator and the last blast furnace when can we expect the globe to stop warming/cooling/climate changing, or is it all a big waste of time, a huge con.

      From the DT – a report on the failure of the chief Islamic terrorist supporter on Today – meesh Hussain – failure to challenge anti semitic comments …

      STARTS The BBC has admitted that it failed to sufficiently challenge an Iranian guest who accused Israel of being an “ethno-supremacist” state that is committing a “holocaust” in Gaza.

      Mohammad Marandi, a professor at the University of Tehran, appeared on Radio 4’s flagship show on Tuesday to comment on how Iran would respond to Israel’s “limited” ground invasion inside Lebanon.

      In what Jewish organisations called a “disgraceful” move, Mishal Husain, the BBC presenter, permitted Mr Marandi to speak at length, unchallenged, as he called Israel a “genocidal regime” that believed its citizens were the “chosen people”.

      A BBC spokesperson told The Telegraph that Mr Marandi was interviewed to “gain an understanding of the view from Iran” and noted that he “was challenged during the course of the interview and the Israeli position was reflected”.

      They added: “However, we accept we should have continued to challenge his language throughout the interview.”

      The BBC is facing a wave of criticism for allowing what commentators have called “offensive” anti-Semitic tropes to be broadcast on its airwaves largely interrupted.

      Husain only appeared to interrupt him once to ask what he meant by Iran will do “whatever it takes” to stop Israel. Mr Marandi skirted around the question, saying: “I’m not part of the Iranian government.”

      The Iranian-American academic, who is the son of the former Iranian health minister, has previously been called a “propagandist” and “mouthpiece” for the Iranian regime by HonestReporting, an organisation that works to combat prejudices in the media.

      The BBC, which “must remain duly impartial” according to its own guidelines, allowed Mr Marandi to continue uninterrupted as he claimed that the “UK supports this Holocaust in Gaza, just as it supports the slaughter of the Lebanese”.

      “We have no doubt that [the UK] will be with the Israelis until the very last Palestinian,” he said, adding that the only way forward was “resistance” by Iran’s proxy forces.

      The professor then labelled Israel an “expansionist regime” that “believes in ethno-supremacism”, without rebuttal from Husain.

      It believes that they are a chosen people. They have exceptional rights, and therefore they have exceptional rights to the whole region. It’s not just Palestine today. It goes beyond the borders of Palestine,” he added.

      The presenter waited for Mr Marandi to finish, thanked him and moved on to a new segment of the show.

      The Board of Deputies of British Jews said they were “deeply concerned” with the national broadcaster for allowing his claims to be aired “without clear pushback”.

      “We will be raising this directly with the BBC at the highest levels,” it added in a statement.

      Claudia Mendoza, the CEO of the Jewish Leadership Council, told The Telegraph: “Comments such as these are unacceptable and anti-Semitic, drawing upon ancient conspiracy theories about Jewish power and control.

      “It is disgraceful for the BBC to air such comments, even more so given that they went unchallenged in a prime-time slot.”

      Hadar Sela, the co-editor of the Committee for Accuracy in Middle East Reporting and Analysis (Camera), which lobbies for a fair representation of Israel in the media, said that for six years the BBC has solicited commentary from an “apologist for the Iranian regime”.

      “No less unsurprising is the fact that BBC presenter Mishal Husain made no effort whatsoever to challenge Marandi’s racist rant and redundant claims of ‘genocide’,” Ms Sela told The Telegraph.

      “This is not the BBC providing various viewpoints: this is the BBC knowingly providing a platform for lies and hate speech.”

      Simon Schama, a historian and BBC presenter, called the Today’s Programme “profoundly and appallingly offensive” for allowing Mr Marandi to air his “anti-Semitic abuse about ‘chosen people’, ‘holocaust’ in Lebanon etc without challenge”.

      ENDS

      One wonders whether the likes of the Jew hater and meesh should find a more comfortable country for their beliefs .

    BBC have their best and brightest on the job.

    They’ve found a ‘Nazi’ in Finland stirring up trouble during the ‘riots’ after the Southport child massacre.

    Is he the administrator of a neo Nazi channel sending details to social media groups on how to set fires?

    Is he a violent neo nazi?

    Well, he could be I suppose. However, one thing hit me when I saw the video. Completely ignored by the ‘journalist’.

    He’s brown.

    Definitely couldn’t be trying to start some kind of race.war he wants then? And he’s definitely not hoping the non whites win?

    Whatever he is, the fact is that if he’s brown, it’s hard for anyone to believe he’s a white supremacist neo nazi.

    A nutter, maybe? A trouble maker, possibly? An attention seeker? Who knows?

    A nazi? Well….come off it lol.
