  1. Yesterday
  2. Crazy how all our politicians seem to be working for israel regardless of their behaviour
  3. Last week
  4. I never said they are. I said they might.
  5. Israel first attacked the Iranian embassy in Damascus and killed Iranian diplomats and the US is not backing an Israeli counterattack
  6. Because they have attacked Israel. The west are allies of Israel so they could back an attack or get involved in Israel’s counter attack when it happens?
  7. why would the west launch an attack on Iran?
  8. If the west now launch an attack on Iran it could well be the start of World War 3.
  9. He is not lying. He was denied entry because of remarks he made at the beginning of this year which in Germany easily qualify as anti-semite. He stated if he was younger he would have participated in the attacks of October, 7th. Such remarks are not protected by freedom of speech in Germany. I wonder why he even travelled to Germany. I do not believe for a second he was not made aware of the fact that German authorities will not let him in. Of course he came for propaganda purposes since he can play the victim now. And to quote Hannah Arendt on this issue is shameful. To top it all, mentioning that Nicaragua is suing Germany before the Human Right Courts. Nicaragua? A dictatorship.
  10. i detect no condescending tone in what he wrote, on the contrary, your tone is condescending. projecting much ?
  11. well if Varoufakis is lying is the Rector of the university of Glasgow is lying too ?
  12. Wow. What a condescending statement. As a German to hear from a foreigner, that has probably never stepped foot into my country, about the lessons learned by the German people from the Holocaust is most likely the most ignorant thing I have ever heard. I find it almost comical that other countries think it is appropriate to tell us how we should deal with our history. Especially, if my country is basically the only country on this planet that is dealing with its past in such an open and honest way. Of course, there has never been a nation that committed crimes against humanity to such an extent. So there is obviously a lot to deal with and the reason why this period is tought about at school in history classes for almost two full years. But there is hardly any nation on this planet that has not committed evil as well BUT there is hardly any public discourse about such events in such countries. Not at least from my perspective. Does Japan address the war crimes they committed? In the U.S. parts of society already making bold claims that slavery was a good thing because slaves learned some skills. Poland has a law that criminalizes statements that Polish citizens were Nazi collaboraters. The Soviet Union / Russia? What about Canada? What about the things they did to indigenous people? Other countries should learn from Germany when it comes to dealing with your very own history.
  13. This is a lie. Varoufakis was not denied entrance in the country. The only official reports or statements to be found are that he was supposed to give a speech at the so called "Palästina Kongress" in Berlin. Although it was expected that speakers or participants will break German law by making anti-semite statements and other statements or forms of expression that are not protected as freedom of speech or freedom of expression by the Grundgesetz, the events was given permission to take place. UNDER RESTRICTIONS. The conference was called of shortly after it began by the Berlin authorities because of incidents happened I as mentioned above. In particular, there was supposed to be a speech via internet by a person who is banned from participating in political activities in Germany because of misconduct in the past. The permission for this de facto demonstration was revoked. It is unclear if Varoufakis was banned from engaging politically in Germany as a preemptive move by the German Ministry of the Interior or by Berlin authorities. Such move happens when it is expected that political actions taking place on German soil by a foreign person or foreign entity are not in line with German laws, especially the Grundgesetz. Since Varoufakis is no stranger to controversy and has a very special attitude towards Germany to put it mildly, such move may very well happened. And from my perspective, my country has every right to act this way and enforce our laws. Democracy is not dying in Germany. In fact it is very well alive. If an event is called of that is clearly anti-semite and calls for the eradication of the state of Israel and is therefore breaking German laws, laws that were created for the most obvious reasons, it supposed to be a sign for a failing democracy, the dozens of pro Palestine demonstrations and events taking place in Berlin every week, protected by the German police tell a different story. The lesson, don't go to a foreign country to break the laws of this country and you will be absolutely fine. Freedom of speech, of expression and freedom of congregation are not absolute. Never were, never will be. And for good reason.
  14. Germany is a sovereign state and can do as they please, yes including inviting and uninviting whomever they want. If the German people disagree with their government's actions and decisions they have there right to protest or elect somebody else at the next elections. I don't see any democracy dying here.
  15. Iran just launched a drone attack on Israel
  16. Lawd. So disappointing that the lesson this country learned from the Holocaust was, support Israel at all costs because of its relation with Jewish people, and not the real lesson which is that the subjugation and oppression of any people must be fought against.
  17. Germany just denied entrance in the country of Greek politician mr Varoufakis because he was invited in a pro Palestinian speech. Democracy is dying
  18. Both candidates suck so bad, hate having to choose between them
  19. Hi Jan,

    So sorry for not responding to your last PM, but Jonski and I were suspended because of comments made in the old Gaga thread a while ago. When we returned, we can no longer send PM's, access certain parts of the forum, and our post count has been reduced to 1 😂It'll probably return in the future, but right now...we can't do anything. All we are allowed is seven posts per day.

  20. Arizona is one of the key states Trump needs to win to have a chance at winning the election. This strike-down pretty much squashes those chances.
