it's probably fairly well known actually but I think it's better than netflix- it has the wire, family guy, modern family, big bang theory etc.) . The first two episodes of any series are free. and some older shows like The Wire or The IT Crowd are all free. You buy credits rather than sign up for any  period of time. it's awesome.

I hadn't heard of it before, and it only has an Alexa.com ranking of 313,067 (however Alexa's rankings are only estimates).

There are good reasons for permitting gay marriage.  The main reasons being that it would allow gay partners to have 'next of kin' status and would formalise 'relationship property'. 

Although gay couples don't conceive offspring with each other, there are people in gay relationships who have children of their own.  Allowing gay marriage would provide similar advantages for raising children that straight marriage has.

Allowing gay marriage, wouldn't weaken straight marriage.  It would have no effect on the rights or responsibilities of straight marriage, nor would it have any effect on the benefits of straight marriage or the decisions of straight couples to get married.

I am yet to hear a sound argument against allowing same-sex marriages.

The Twentieth Century Boys trilogy is easily my second favourite film trilogy (my favourite being the original Star Wars trilogy).

Twentieth Century Boys trilogy from Japan. 9/10

A group of childhood friends reunite to stop an evil cult leader taking over the world, after the events depicted in the story book they wrote come true.

It is set from 1969 to 2017.

ISIS have shown Israelies what the caliphate espoused by Hamas really means. The result is no surprise in that context.

The question now really boils down to whether the Palestinians will stop supporting Jihad. Do they want a state or a caliphate ?

Hamas don't support having a caliphate, nor do they support sharia law or ISIS / Al Qaeda jihad.

ISIS consider Hamas to be an enemy.
