Hundreds of Israeli rabbis have signed a religious edict forbidding Jews from renting or selling homes or land to Arabs and other non-Jews. The public letter instructs Jews to "ostracise" those who disobey the order, which is widely viewed as an attack on the country's Palestinian citizens.

secularism ftw

i had a headache. my sister, her husband and their toddler came over. i bought them and my girlfriend lunch, cake then took them to the park. and i (i thought fairly transparently) wasn't being serious i was trying to be good natured, self deprecating and make light of the fact that you had misunderstood and insinuated that i was being sanctimonious.

i'm intrigued though, do you ever recall thinking you might have made a misjudgement or mistake? perhaps apologising for getting the wrong end of the stick? or should i expect you to just carry on attacking me till you're satisfied you've won?

EDIT: at least i've answered my own rhetorical question. you certainly seem to think the worst of me anyway....

Have an apology if it means that much to you.
Quicker than proofing your copy...

Is it that bad? Thanks dude. It means a bit.

It's interesting that South Africa were stopped form taking part in many international sporting evens during apartheid but Qatar, who sanction executing gays are good to host a major sporting event.

That is indeed, total fucking bullshit. FIFA and Qatar can fuck off.

There's a taxi with an advert for Qatar on the side that I see around Holborn quite often, he drives like a cunt.

Then taxi drivers can fuck off too! Add them to the list.

theres a list?

can we put Eric Clapton on it?

/i have my reasons

Can we just send them to Qatar instead? They might share similar views.

But his live shows are great! Some would say second only to one!

coincidentally, mister clapton has been QUICK to express some rather rum views on BLACK people in the past...
