Since you are apparently keen on a good read: In the 1940s, long before Palestinian resistance groups like Hamas picked up arms against the Israeli occupation, a plethora of Jewish militias were bombing and shooting dead British officials and Palestinian ...
I hope you don't mind if I did a very small amount of research. In the Wilson Centre article, at the start of the third paragraph I read this and felt I didn't need to go further: Hamas was founded—in the early days of the first Intifada uprising—amid ...
On the Police numbers saga, it feels like Mitchell went to Willis and asked for the money required to fund 500 new cops in two years and/or be exempt from the 6.5-7.5% public service cuts...and Willis said no. So Mark gets up in parliament and lays this ...
Stop describing Chris Trotter as left. Just stop it, he's not.
I don't think the Arab world particularly wants to fund, beyond what they already do, an agency which exists because of Israel's illegal occupation. UNRWA is a mechanism under which Israel is allowed to continue its supremacist program of ethnocide (and ...
Compared to Robert Reid, for one. If the left look for traitors, it looks like they found one in Chris Trotter.
Trotter is not a leftist.
I'm surprised you didn't call him, "two mums". But I guess this is reflection of the reduced threat James Shaw posed to the right. The nut jobs began to praise him as a real Green, and the last bastion of sensibility. They no longer needed to target him in...
He's pimping for Seymour. You like that?
It's not supposed to be droll. Any neutral observer views October 07 a hostage taking mission. All the actual evidence points to that.
I'd like to know if these employees actually participated in a pogrom, of if there was a pogrom at all because it looked like a hostage taking mission to neutral observers. If some UNRWA employees were involved on the day, what was their role? To neutral ...
Thank you. I think they're useful. Nice, big graphic which added to the look of the site and made the quote clear.
We've lost the large grey quote marks which used to be next to the indent. Now we just have the indent which I don't think is particularly clear. No need to panic, I did make it clear it was an edit of your original quote. It was a response to highlight ...
"How do you know if a rahui is in place if it isn't marked in English?" FIFY.
The evil hag Ardern killed kindness and waged war on we rich white farmers who are now quite happy because we might have some mangoes, but sad because of our repressed rage that a woman built a very dark tunnel which I got stuck in. The bank gave us some ...
Typical Randian nonsense from Seymour. The pinnacle of human achievement shall be the extraction and abuse of resources, environmental and human, for profit.
Gee, thanks for that mate. Not the bit I didn't understand...
I just dropped 20 basic points trying to work out what the fuck you are on about. Explain yourself.
Reminds me of Verity Johnson's mea culpa today.
Direct action. Don't you love to see it? Poor old James Cook lying on the grass like he was on holiday in Hawaii that time... https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-01-25/melbourne-captain-cook-queen-victoria-statues-vandalised/103386996
One thing for all of the socially conscious left to watch for in David Seymours' insidious plan is the pathway to the referendum question. He'll try to lock in the referendum before the question we are to be asked is proposed. Make no mistake, the plan to ...
Waitangi is an interesting one because the trust board will want everything down the line, impartial and safe but will also want people to be abler to express their views. Can't clamp down on your own to protect a racist from rude words.
John Keys' war on meth went well: https://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/crime/child-abuse-sentencing-kurtis-innes-blames-wheelchair-fall-for-babys-more-than-60-injuries/7Z6B4QNVGRGQJNY6377YHHFLMY/
It was a great opportunity to make the case he is so confident about. To show that he's not anti-Maori and concerned with their welfare. But he didn't do that because he's not concerned with Maori, he would like to reduce that culture to one of a number of...
You will never know unless you try.
^ The inference being that the unfinished job of colonising Northland and the East Cape should proceed with haste, for their own good. The Maori way is inferior, the Pakeha way is superior. The Maoriness of Maori is a disease which must be treated in order...
You have all the numbers it seems. Not that you bothered linking to them as per site policy. How many ships as a percentage of the whole have the Houthi movement targeted? More than 5%, less?
Why has David Seymour been too scared to speak or even present himself at Tūrangawaewae and now Rātana? He does pretend to want to debate the relevance of te Tiriti o Waitangi so the least he can do is engage in the debate he and his backers have invented....
It seems to be a moving feast because the (deliberately) leaked report outlines three completely different new principles to the ones you linked to from last November. I guess all that shadowy funding hasn't got the decent lawyers in yet. I also suspect ...
Normally the submissions process is a way of flexing a weak democratic system in that the voice of the disenfranchised is muted while the voice of the resourced elite is amplified. Wayne Brown runs this agenda, Auckland City constantly seeking submissions ...
Those government policies sit alongside the proposed Treaty Principles Bill to diminish Māori opportunities to be Māori in public life. For the Act Party, this is necessary to protect democratic equality. In effect, the proposed bill says that to be equal...
