Re: Global Climate Change Science News

Meh. Things have moved on grandpa. The fossil lobby are effectively, fundamentally, anti-science climate deniers. Science holds little sway with them - other than when it can be bent to obfuscate their complicity and/or serve their pecuniary interests. I'm always happy to talk about atmospheric scie...

Yeah. Particularly soldiers of an apartheid state that defines and enforces strict conditions on your existence.

Re: Palestine v Israel.

Meh. The BBC obviously sympathise with Hamas, so it's not surprising they'd be trotting out the lies and the blood libels. :tea:

Re: Global Climate Change Science News

Pretentious twaddle :roll: ... Until you lived through Duck and cover and the Cuban Missile crisis you have little sense of impending doom that kids feel. Sure grandpa.

Re: Global Climate Change Science News

Do you enjoy disaster porn ?? You prefer a stone hut on the beach perhaps? Maybe spend some time in the half full part of the glass. Meh. You're triggered far too easily. And the alternative to your perspective is not going back to the stone-age. You just tell yourself that as a way of invalidating...

Re: Palestine v Israel.

One basic meaning, but different people envision different manifestations of Israel don't they? You're being rather vague here, and I suspect that's deliberate. Why are you not prepared to discuss different visions of Zionism, or say which form you're happy to assert 95% of Jewish people support? F...

Re: Palestine v Israel.

At least 95% of Jews support Zionism, the national liberation movement of the Jewish people. What do you mean by Zionism there - because it means different things for different people? What exactly are you suggesting that 95% of Jews are supporting? Zionism has one and only one basic meaning: a bel...

Re: Capitalism, The Best Solution to Poverty

There was a sharp intake of breath last month when the pharmaceuticals group AstraZeneca cemented chief executive Pascal Soriot’s position as the best-paid FTSE 100 boss with a £17m pay package, up from £15.3m a year earlier. The latest award brings to £137m the amount he has earned since joining i...
