Orangeman comes out for Irish unification

That’s what the Israelis are saying too :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Anyway, I’ve no knowledge of how man migrated from our origins in Africa but I would have thought that we migrated west. So there could be an argument that the Ulster Plantation was just delayed family reunification.

I can guarantee you though that none of that really bothers me. The point I was trying to make s thatif the Israeli Government doesn’t think there will be long term negative ramifications for their actions, I think the are wrong.

If Netanyahu, Ben-Givr, Smotrich and the other extremists retain power then the damage to Israel will only be greater. It’s a dodgy time

I feel they, the Israeli’s having planning this for a long time. Robert Maxwell gave them a big step up into the security service of the UK, the Epstein funding to blackmail the heads of many countries.

No doubt. I even remember my epiphany moment about twenty years ago. I was bopping along assuming that the two state solution was progressing, too slowly, but progressing. Even when I was living in the M/E and traveling to Lebanon and Jordan the situation wasn’t of great interest to me.

Then one day I suddenly realised… they want is all. That’s when I started watching what was going on.

Now naive I was :roll_eyes:

It was not edited … .I would have seen it live .. It was not scripted in by anyone ..a reporter asked the question and trump being trump just spoke without thinking … The reference to the UK came perhaps 1 hour later when he was at the US Ambassadors residence ..and presumably had been briefed .. so he goes into a spiel about it being a question with no right answer .. any answer will annoy half the room ..and that’s when he included the UK. …Now I am doing what I try not to do ..respond to. trump faux pas

I doubt that’s on their agenda, given current legal battles :slightly_smiling_face:
