    Does anyone know how many Israeli civilians are killed a year by Palestinian rockets ?

    mikewsmith: Yep, but it doesn’t change the fact that the current borders were won fair and square in a fight for survival against the entire neighbouring Arab world.

    I’m still waiting for you to link to the posts where you criticise the Palestinians for lobbing rockets and mortars at Israeli civilians.

    Just get off your arse and find them, doubt we can find anything where you criticise Israel.

    I’ll make it easy, they will achieve nothing and hurt their cause attacking Israeli civilians. It’s not productive or sensible.

    Epic thread about the anti-clinton fake news spread by the alt-right (and then by trump/ alt-right fans on here) during the election…

    urgh, all I’m taking from that is that Trump is shady as hell, which I already knew, and that twitter is not the right format for ‘proper’ journalism.

    I don’t really think sexually objectifying him like that is acceptable.
    There would be an outcry if someone made a nude statue of a female politician for men to grope and take amusing pictures with.

    Seems that the Russians take Trump tweets as official US policy statements, while Putin, ever the smart cookie, refuses to engage with any social media.

    Last time I worked for a company sheltering vast profits from the IRS, they were all hiding in Singapore.

    Yeah. The Ireland and Luxembourg tactics are more about hiding taxes from other EU countries rather than the USA.

    Jones beats Moore in Alabama.
    Hoof in the slats for the odious orange cretin & bannon the white supremacist.
    Can’t wait to read the latest outpourings from trump – does he see himself as a 10?

    mikewsmith

    How did they not elect Moore??? 🙂

    But the most memorable comments from the event did not come from Mr. Moore. Rather, they emerged from Mr. Bannon, who mocked NBC’s Joe Scarborough, a University of Alabama graduate, for not attending a more prestigious university; Mr. Moore’s wife, Kayla, who angrily denied charges the couple was anti-Semitic by noting “one of our attorneys is a Jew;” and an Army friend of the candidate, who recalled the two of them being uneasy walking into a Vietnam brothel to find “pretty girls” who Mr. Moore found too young.

    Congratulations to Doug Jones on a hard fought victory. The write-in votes played a very big factor, but a win is a win. The people of Alabama are great, and the Republicans will have another shot at this seat in a very short period of time. It never ends!

    And somebody else must be operating his phone today, coherent, spelt correctly I think we need to know who is writing Trump’s tweets today

    Don’t worry he’ll tweet something poorly spelt and offensive when he gets his phone back. Maybe his lawyer did write this one 😀

    Gracious and correctly-spelled concession tweet from Trump? Unlikely.

    I’m sure normal service will be resumed once he’s up and about after his fifth can of Diet Coke later on. 🙂

    At some point the house and senate are going to pull the plug on Trump if he can’t even help deliver a GOP senator from Alabama.

    Still depressing that so many people voted for Moore, paedo allegations aside, his homophobia, bigotry and ignorance should be enough, even in an evangelical stronghold, to see him given no chance.

    Anyway, amusing to see Trump & bannon take a kicking

    Yessssssss!

    But only up to a point. 48% voted for this Moore guy – I know Alabama is proper knuckle-dragger territory, but 48%! Bearing in mind that a lot of the self-righteous bile that is spouted by Deep South Neanderthals is supposedly based on Christian values and some kind of ‘purity’. Makes you realise just how hypocritical they are.

    Less than two percent difference eh?

    I presume that the lefties will all be telling us that it’s not conclusive and calling for another vote, like they always do when it’s a close outcome?

    Ok, I will…… just as soon as you justify why Roy Moore was the better candidate and would have got your vote.

    why Roy Moore was the better candidate

    Luther Strange was the better candidate, always was.

    Like picking Clinton over Bernie, the mistake was made earlier in the process

    Bannon will get a kicking fo’shure, but then he has just helped loose the reddest state in the USA, and the GOP dislike him anyway. But Trump will swerve this

    Few minor problems with your ramblings.
    Firstly in case you havent noticed there will be another vote in a couple of years in this case.
    Secondly the EU vote wasnt left/right so not sure why you are going on about lefties?
    Thirdly remember St Farage, who cant be called a leftie by any but the most hard right, is on the record as saying he thought a 52-48 vote wouldnt be the end of things and he would keep campaigning.
    Its just that he is an hypocritical arse that he then decided it was when it went in his favour.

    @Graham write-ins contributed heavily to Clinton’s loss

    Some people vote for the party not the candidate, imo the majority do that.

    Media seem determined to make a big deal of this, GOP majority is 51/49 vs 52/48 before.

    @Graham write-ins contributed heavily to Clinton’s loss

    Are the actual write-ins reported in the results there?
    As in, do the announce the actual count for particular write-in candidates?
    And has a write-in ever won??

    Seems like a slightly more official way to spoil a ballot paper.

    Personally I’ve always thought ballot papers should have a “None of the above” or “Other” option on them – it allows people to say “I’m not apathetic. I do care enough to vote, but there is no one to represent me”

    Media seem determined to make a big deal of this, GOP majority is 51/49 vs 52/48 before.

    Depends how you spin it I guess. That’s a 50% reduction in majority 😉
