I read that at least one of them gets annoyed about the Hall and Oates thing, that its actually supposed to be the full Daryl Hall and John Oates, pretty funny.

Hopefully the book deal goes the way of Glinners autobiography.

That sounds like someone who vaguely heard of french potato salad but then never remembered a single part of the recipe beyond oil, just skipping the vinegar and/or mustard.

Goes well with chives also.

I wanna add onto the suggestion that presidents/prime ministers should be executed after 2 terms with the suggestion that all their staff should be entombed alongside them, so many recent examples of just former obama staff or literal thatcher aides just scattering to the wind and spreading their evil wherever they end up.

Love the implication that the staff would custom produce airplane themed not-keffiyeh lookalike scarves for plausibly deniable Palestine support.

Some notes on the Swedish, he doesnt actually say "self defense", he just says "försvar" or defense.

"Israel has the right to defense" is obviously not a particularly correct grammar in terms of politics, if he said that they have the right to "självförsvar" that would make sense as self defense, or "rätt till ett försvar" or "a defense" that would also make sense as basically saying they have the right to a military, but just defense is kind of light nonsense.

Also in Swedish, genocide is "folkmord" or people-murder, he begins by saying "folk" and stops himself extremely abruptly, apparently having just supported Israels right to people, again not "a people" or "their people" just "people."

Edit: Also the thing he sort of ended up saying, "folkförsvar" is technically a political term, but Ive only recently heard it used to refer to specifically the Swedish defense sector, and how it should be strengthened with mandatory military service as well as self-sustaining military infrastructure, shit like that.

Its not something that means that they have right to defend their people, that would be "försvara sitt folk".

Thats one interpretation, but it really isnt any less nonsensical than him saying just "folk", what compound word would he follow it up with? They have a right to prisoner exchange?

Svennar in Swedish, idk if maybe the Norwegians or Danes would say Svenner so it probably works as a regionally appropriate insult if you prefer.

Absolute projection from a Brit to say this about the French when the absolute world consensus is that the French are smug self loving assholes.

Meanwhile as Ive stated in extensive rants, the Brits wont even stand up for themselves, if you shit on them they wont say that anything British is actually good, they'll just say everyone else is worse and subhuman.
