It probably would have led to the best outcome if it had been one state from the start, when Israel was established. God knows if it'd work now.

No, because they add advertisements to services you pay for.

See: television, streaming services, fucking books even.

It's just unregulated capitalism doing what unregulated capitalism does - gobble up as much revenue as possible, at the expense of everything else.

It ends on a positive though - if the world gets to net zero, then (apparently) no further warming will occur (does this mean runaway warming -from lack of reflection via ice sheets, methane release from previous permafrost zones, etcetera - is no longer expected?).

We just need to push our politicians harder. Poverty and climate are intrinsically linked - we can improve things in the everyday person's life with green investment and policy.

Cool article. Wish it had been more comprehensive though, rather than just a single school from a tiny handful of countries.

I couldn't find a source for Israel financing Hamas. Please could you provide one?

You telling me your government has never done a morally reprehensible thing you didn't support? Or are you divinely insulated from the 'justice' of being bombed and deprived of basic human rights?

You're despicable.

I've learnt that it's pointless trying to gently and politely disabuse idiots of their entrenched views. Instead it's only ever worth highlighting their bigotry for passersby so they don't get duped.

So less than 50% of Palestinians elected a party, and they haven't had another election in almost 20 years.

I guess they deserve to be shelled and blockaded. /s

Why did I read the title as 'explosive if eaten raw'?

So I've figured if I just cook the dynamite, then it's safe to eat.

Labour isn't currently in power; surely they would put 'nationalising energy supply' on their manifesto, to be equivalent.
