You guys must have better politicians than us. Ours are a blight...pretty much to the man. An embargo of ideas? No, Fidel, it's an embargo of people I'm talking about. Let them speak, let them shout (I'm with you on that count). Don't give them money for it, and don't be the guy that feeds the cash to the man who sends it (or takes it) home to his shitty state.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
Calling for an embargo on Israel is bit different to banning jews. Similar things were done to South Africa during apartheid in the eighties.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid. Tinkety Tonk and down with the Nazis.
George Galloway is an attention seeker who only cares about George Galloway. The sort of man that would switch sides if the government became pro palestine.
How about either a Bradford free UK, or a Galloway free UK ??

If Bradford could be argued to be committing some deplorable act wholly against the core values and interests of the UK - then I don't see why you couldn't bar any economic gain for Bradford coming from your nations coffers or citizens.

Galloway represents a tiny minority of Bradford, which itself is split into various constituencies to which he is MP of one. He has no right to claim Bradford as his city, doubly so as hes not even from Bradford or never lived there before running as a candidate. I like the idea of a Galloway free UK though.

An embargo on Israel is not calling for a Jew-free zone. eta: DBP got there first.
And I don't like the idea of investigating someone for advocating an embargo. RE: UK politician called for Jew-free Bradford

Well again, being 48 I am old enough to have heard the excuses from both sides to ignore that they are not a separate species.
It is tribalism, it is evolutionary. It is our species ignorance that all we are doing is fighting over resources. |
