Someone left a hat at work. Ngl if it isn't claimed within a couple of days I'm having it

Tempted, as you all know I do love an unusual hat, but being a shortarse this would bring unwanted comparisons to...

This is still the greatest video of all time. Iranian state media: “No bomb can reach us because Allah protects us…” *Moments later*

Good World Cup #pubquiz tonight, including the welcome return of copyright-law-skirting bonus round Google Your Cards Right.

They are going to make those MAGA fuckers cry!😭

Fuckin' hydration breaks my fuckin' ringpiece #TheFootball

Cannot understand these endless posts from those objecting to Americans calling it "soccer" - the word originally used for it in the UK - when 70% of dopes here still say "footie".

Remember to tell your followers you don't like The World Cup or football in general, so they know how interesting you are.

He definitely fucks dogs

We lost so many good men as a result of what were, in retrospect, preventable blunders in strategy and training

Bob Hope in this. This is what Republicans used to be like. youtu.be/2XffOHjOywc?si=3bja…

Who'd have imagined a seedy old cockney bongo magnate could have been a handsy wrongcock

Never gets old. Comic timing Buster Keaton would envy.

Government? I can see how you can justify nationalising/subsidising rail, utilities, maybe even steel/coal (although bear in mind how shit they were last time), but fancy milk jugs? Nah

Even Arab leaders admit it. Everyone is sharing the Bill Clinton clip where he describes how Yasser Arafat rejected a generous peace offer at Camp David that would have given the Palestinians a state on 96 percent of the West Bank, land swaps, and a capital in East Jerusalem. Clinton says Arafat lied to him and that the Palestinian leadership never actually wanted a two-state solution. They wanted to destroy Israel. It’s a video often shared by people like @VividProwess, and it’s an important one for people to see. Of course, critics immediately dismiss it. They claim Clinton is biased or he’s pro-Israel. They’ll tell you that you cannot trust the American perspective. Ok, so let us set that aside. Now watch this. In this powerful interview, former Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak, a major Arab leader who was directly involved in negotiations, says exactly the same thing from the Arab side. He talks about the Mena House Conference in Cairo as well as the Camp David negotiations of 1978. All failed because of the Palestinians repeatedly rejecting any offer. The Oslo accords were signed but because Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad were not involved, they derailed the accords and any chance for peace by initiating 4 years of terrorist suicide attacks in Israel. Then came the second Camp David negotiations in 2000 which Arafat agreed to, then rejected and instead initiated the Second Intifada. Mubarak explains how the Palestinians refused to even participate in the Mena House conference of 1977. He describes repeated opportunities they were given, including a detailed document that called for Israeli withdrawal from the Samaria, Judea and Gaza, security arrangements during a transitional period, and other major concessions. The Israelis were willing to negotiate on difficult issues like who would control security. The Palestinians, according to Mubarak, kept saying no and wasting chance after chance. He speaks with clear frustration about how for decades the Palestinian side has rejected peace initiatives and realistic compromises. The video further shows footage from the PLO representative in 1977, as well as old footage of Egyptian president Sadat who was involved in the Mena House and first Camp David negotiations of 1978. This perhaps is far more impactful than Clinton’s account because it is not a Western or Israeli voice. It is prominent Arab leaders who lived the negotiations, who represented the broader Arab world, and who had zero incentive to defend Israel. When leaders from both sides of the table describe the same pattern of Palestinian rejectionism and violence, it becomes much harder to dismiss as bias. The pattern is clear across decades and across different voices… generous offers, repeated refusals, and continued demands for everything while giving nothing in return. This is not ancient history. It is the core reason the conflict continues today. If you value the truth, please share.
