An Irish Israel supporter? And if you know your history...
This is what I eluded to a month or so ago. There's no way you're from Ireland I said, his response was 'Cork was his home town and the mayor was Jewish'!

I think he lives and grew up in America and identifies as 'from Cork'

Someone needs to tell him that no true Irishman would side with Israel for very obvious reasons.

Corky also follows rangers as well as Cork GAA. Quite an eclectic mix.

The rangers support is of course known for its tolerance and fair mindedness 🥴 Nice of them to fly banners with the totenkopf. No hard feelings about WWII.

Not quite sure how support for the SS goes with support for Israel but I'm sure there is a sensible explanation.

Mind you one is also likely to see swastikas and the Star of David on flags in the loyal parts of the wee six.

Too complex for my little head.

Cork could also mean wine?
 
Compare the reactions

Ukraine attacks its aggressor - indifference from UK and US, Biden keeps close relations with Ukraine

Palestine attacks its aggressor - outrage towards Palestine from UK and US, Biden promoting fake narratives about Hamas' actions, terrorist state leader (Netanyahu) invited to address US congress.

The Western bias is shocking. We all know in the Senate and the Houses of Parliament it's very politically advantageous to align yourself with Israel, whereas to stand for Human Rights you'll probably be smeared as racist. And with arms sales to Israel and arms exports to Ukraine, the ruling classes need to keep schtum about the horrors and murder their greed has caused. All that said, Ukraine's actions in recent days really have shown us just how facile our mainstream media is and how rooted they are to the principle of profit over peace.
What is the average lifespan of a super toffee?
 
Not sure because all I drink is Pepsi (Lidl's own) and I'm basically addicted to pot noodles
Please try and avoid both, brother. That you've found yourself on an Everton forum is bad enough but sustained by these things points toward an early end :(

That aside, I think we can all agree that the actions of this Israeli government, and the disproportionate horror they have unleashed upon Gazans has no justification at all.

If this year can bring us any gift it, for me, would be a Dems win. Ukraine victory and seeing little Vlad and Bibi in the Hague.
 
During WWII, the Nazis dropped 20,000 tonnes of bombs on London.

The Israelis have dropped 70,000 tonnes of bombs on Gaza since 7th October.
Still can't get my head around it. We are dealing with the most evil people in history. The death toll is now 2% of Gaza's pre-war population.

Arms sales seems controversial on this forum at least in the Ukraine thread - in my mind the UK state is responsible for exacerbating this genocide politically, financially and materially. I hope history will judge all who supported this war with contempt.

From the river to the sea, Intifada until victory 🇵🇸

I will be okay hopefully, I've just done a year without drinking and I am vegetarian 😀 hopefully that counters my pot noodle obsession

Joe Biden leaving the White House will be a step forward. His entire political career in the Senate was funded by pro-Israel donors. Personally I would vote for Jill Stein. Hopefully we see an end to the mindless fighting on both sides in Ukraine. It gives me hope that Russians are protesting against his leadership.
