How many?
I'd say every cargo plane load of weapons we fly in leaves with a full load of orphan's, people in need of urgent care etc. How many is that bloke from stoke?

I know what Israel was and is.
Ethnostate you claim.
So Judaism qualifies as a race or ethnicity?

What's the point of flying them thousands of miles over hear to a strange land with a strange language when they are already traumatised. They can get everything they need including the love and affection of there own on their doorstep. They will be fine. Those countries are doing a fantastic job.

So you believe the EU system of countries has worked so well that their health care, infrastructure and endless amounts of cash can absorb 2 million people in 2 weeks, without assistance? Whilst we haven't a pot to piss in, but can supply any amount of death dealing equipment. Most outstanding post I've read on here endorsing the EU system.
I want to rejoin if that's the case.

You forgot to mention the blanket assumption that Ukrainians can't cope with English as a language. Those I've heard on the radio seem OK with it...

Mate, Ukrainians are some of the brightest, innovative and hardest working in the world. Clearly amongst the bravest and they need all forms of assistance to knock the snot out of the aggressor Putin. That includes looking after their families while they do.

Agreed

It's not much to ask while we facilitate a lengthy conflict is it. I see it as a simple act of decency

Probably why Patel and Johnson can't get it right..

You referred to orphans. Chances are they don't speak English. They would be better off with their own.
The countries involved in accepting refugees are getting all the 'assistance' they need from all over the world via financial and humanitarian aid which we happen to be contributing to hugely. Your making out that we are doing sod all when that's clearly not the case.

Both.
I can't say I blame them from fleeing a nation that has the Azov Battalion as part of their National Guard and an armed population, some of whom have extremely forceful prejudices.

So Christians are a race and/or an ethnic group? The same for Buddhists, followers of Islam etc?



Strange how these people just got terrified of groups like the Azov Brigade, at exactly the same time as Russian tanks crashed into their country. You wouldn't believe it would you....

I get the impression you don't have much interaction with Jewish people.
If you do, ask them.
There's nothing funny about neo nazi national guard. 🙄

I'm asking you, you make the claim that Israel is an ethnostate and that religion's are an ethnicity and or race.

Yes,it is. It was formed for the preserve of the Jewish people, both religious,and cultural..
They exist.
You're either lazy or argumentative.

This made me chuckle today

Bittersweet announcement but after an amazing 2 years as an infectious disease expert I am moving on. I am now an expert in no-fly zones and Eastern European affairs. Excited to make the most of this new opportunity.

I know how why and by whom the state of Israel was brought into existence. A lot of British soldiers blood was spilt by the Jewish settlers during it's formation.

You class Judaism as an ethnicity and or race. Therefore call Israel an "Ethnostate" I disagree with that definition. You can't back up your claim in any way.
That's either lazy, you're wrong or my choice, both.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
