Why would you gamble with the profit? Why not just take it out and keep it? Or invest it?

Countries (not Ireland) are suspending rather than cancelling. The Arabs can easily replace them but, if the US pulls out, it will be another case of it shooting itself in the foot in terms of Middle East credibility. Denying starving people food is not a good look.
However genocidal statements and attendance at Settler conferences by Government Ministers is not sufficient indication of Israeli direction of travel.
Why don't the Arabs step up to the plate and replace them?
Nobody in the media ever points out why 80% of the people in gaza are dependent on food aid. Israel destroyed the economy. Israel is the purest evil.
Isreal government? Or just all of Israel is the purest evil?

I'm telling you 70 million people don't want to come to this island
I was referring to the 26 counties, EU citizens have a right to travel throughout the EU and are not asked questions.
Are you contending that there are not 70million people (or a lot more) who would prefer to live in Ireland than in their own country. So they would come here if they could and if other places did not welcome them.
You were talking about this island.
And let's talk about this island. How many people actually leave here to go and better their lives? It's ok for them to do it but if someone else dreams about doing it it's a bad thing?
I was talking about this island, but I was not trying to justify Brexiteer policies.
I didn't say that it was a bad thing for these people, I said it was a bad thing for us.

I merely want us to protect ourselves for future generations.
However, thanks for the holier-than-thou lecture.
Look, it's pretty obvious neither of us is going to persuade the other, and while I know arguing with strangers on the internet is basically pointless, sometimes it can be stimulating. This, though, isn't - so I'm off to scrub the dishes!
Like what? Upsetting racist patients who want to be treated by one of their own?
Or upsetting racist patients who don't want a fella jerking off at the foot of their hospital bed when theyre recovering from an operation might be a start
A fella with 8 priors BTW

Are you gonna comment on the fella with over 30 priors who was free to murder a young lad in lurgan? Or does thefact he was a local make it ok? Or maybe it's because his victim was from the north?
Quote from: armaghniac on January 27, 2024, 03:11:11 PMOh I think 70 million might well want to come here, but we do not allow them, and most do not make up stories to try and come here. Which is not the same thing.

Not the numbers themselves? Or are we just going down a rabbit hole with the focus on these few immigrants who have broken the law? Just genuinely interested as it's two very different discussions.
There are 7 billion people who might want to come and all of these will not fit on this island, but the open door crowd refuse to countenance a limit of any sort or to that the present arrangements encourage chancers.

It's funny but in recent years, Olympic and World Cup host countries (Russia, Qatar, Saudi Arabia etc) have been criticised for their attitude/laws/death penalties towards gays, women etc. Yet the US has hosted numerous events and not a word about attitudes to same, and their death penalty.
Remember seeing a documentary a while ago , and it basically looks like the US prison system is a cheap labour camp for big business. People thrown in jail for having a break light out or a baldy tyre. Big businesses have a contract with the prisons so they basically are paying little to nothing for labour

True. Prison should be hard and punishing every minute of every day. Basic food provision, no menus or choice etc. and hard labour daily. No Internet, TV in a cell, computer games or degree courses.

We have an entire genre of sentimental ballad songs lamenting emigration and we refer to the "exiles" all the time. The sight of Irish people giving out about migration is just priceless.
The people in Ireland did not migrate, it is those 40 million who should look after migrants.
