  1. Why would the US do it? (5) Afghan officials from the start said explicitly that the hospital was a valid and intended target due to the presence of Taliban fighters as patients. And the US have a history of committing the war crime of targeting hospitals in contravention of the Geneva convention. http://www.thenation.com/article/look-for-hospitals-as-targets/ Paris was completely different. There were no beligerent targets whatsoever. Apples and oranges... Or should i say war crimes and terrorism.
  2. Good read for you if you want to know more about the 'accident' at Kunduz. https://theintercept.com/2015/11/06/u-s-journalists-who-instantly-exonerated-their-government-of-the-kunduz-hospital-attack-declaring-it-an-accident/
  3. Can't believe they've spun a book out of it! How many times can the same joke be funny?
  4. Really interesting reading. Cuts through the perception and gives you absolute numbers and trends of who is committing atrocities, where they're doing it most, who the victims are and what their aims/ideologies are. http://www.visionofhumanity.org/sites/default/files/Global%20Terrorism%20Index%20Report%202014_0.pdf
  5. I'm constantly trying new apps to see if they're better than the ones I have, no matter how good the existing ones are. It's the only way to ensure I have the best available for my needs, rather than going on blind faith that the company I like will never put a foot wrong.
  6. Being fair and trying other things before commenting on them is shit. Can see you walking around waitrose when they're offering free tasters of pork pie and stopping the wifey before she says a word. "Don't even bother. I had an entirely serviceable pork pie on Thursday and that will do me from now on"
  7. Reviews I read said it's exactly the same as iOS, without cloud compatibility though.
  8. Started the 3 month trial last night. No home button Top menu not available in most screens Have to go back, back, back.... After jumping around. No "jump to artist" (or album) from a song No smart playlists No sync with music bee The public playlists are going to have to blow me away for it to win me over.
  9. Didn't think Harris responded to any points directly really. Just accused Greenwald of quote mining and not being nice. Sorry if i misrepresented your opinion at any point. Thought i asked you to clarify when I wasn't convinced.
  10. Never had a clue it was back until it popped up on my TiVo recordings. Lovely surprise.
  11. Lad on the right represented the lollipop guild.
  12. How much would I pay for one of those boilers?
  13. Have you read the Glen Greenwald pieces on Harris. Guess they'll bring you out in hives
  14. I was telling the new apprentice at work today that I was going to see The Prodigy and Public Enemy next week. "What sort of music do they play?" he asked
  15. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3322385/Ex-wife-Comptoir-Voltaire-caf-bomber-reveals-jobless-layabout-spent-day-bed-smoking-pot-French-say-blew-mistake-fiddling-suicide-vest.html#ixzz3rmuf5dqG Fitting those Mi5 findings perfectly
  16. Shit on at the Germany game now
  17. Absolutely. Also that so many (especially young) muslims agree with the death penalty for it, Even in the UK. But in ALL cases it's the minority position. Even half a century after we abolished the death Penalty in the UK, it's only this year that support for it among the public has fallen into the minority. Of course that's for harmful crimes, but we weren't a theocracy when we were hanging people for homosexuality either, and a quarter of people in the UK still think gay rumpy pumpy should be illegal.
  18. Thought you were in Pakistan. It's not illegal there is it? Checking... 47% of Muslim majority countries have it as illegal. 16% of Mulsim Majority countries have laws to punish it with death 2 people have suffered the death penalty for it globally in the last 5 years.

  21. "When a man sells his daughter as a slave, she will not be freed at the end of six years as the men are. If she does not please the man who bought her, he may allow her to be bought back again. But he is not allowed to sell her to foreigners, since he is the one who broke the contract with her. And if the slave girl's owner arranges for her to marry his son, he may no longer treat her as a slave girl, but he must treat her as his daughter. If he himself marries her and then takes another wife, he may not reduce her food or clothing or fail to sleep with her as his wife. If he fails in any of these three ways, she may leave as a free woman without making any payment." (Exodus 21:7-11 NLT)
  22. http://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2015/nov/16/salon-owner-arrested-no-muslims-facebook-post-blinks-bicester I'd always defend the right of a racist prick to be a racist prick. Arrested? What a shambles.
