Not to Nigeria clearly, a country he knows next to nothing about.

Where did he claim anything about Nigeria?


One guy who has never set foot in a Kibbutz calls them military installations.

One guy keeps going on about the rape denial.

One guy is like "your friends aren't real"

Can you guys see how much bad faith this all represents, and how totally unnecessary it is? You have a group of people who largely (a few exceptions) agree this war could/should have been executed differently (but needed to be executed once it was brought to Israel). The same group are largely anti-Bibi and anti the Israeli far right. But you STILL need these pointless bad faith arguments?

I don't get it. It advances nothing.

wtf, i was told that this conflict started on oct 7 2023

It began over 100 years ago and Churchill, as British Colonial Secretary, gave up on both sides after attempted negotiations in 1921 because they were intransigent and irreconcilable. But thanks for posting a fine speech by the late Gerald Kaufman.

Just like I made up my family and friends in London-

Al-Jafrezi just resorts to calling the other side liars.

Name calling and bad faith are clearly pillars of the position. We've seen that now as the new moderation has taken place. When name calling is modded out, let's try denying your realities.

lol my father was born in Africa. My family lived there for years. As evil powerful white colonizers I guess.

Palestinians have a great deal of worth that the Israelis want to steal, and are stealing, mainly East Jerusalem and the West Bank (or 'Judea and Samaria', as Israeli nationalists like to call it).

Hm the whole of Jerusalem is already s
Israeli. Trump decided that and Biden confirmed that.


Christianity is a pretty great religion for gender equality.... except for the whole women are the root of all evil bit. and maybe one or two other parts


Abrahamic religions are just variations on a theme. Not sure why that is such a confounding concept.


much to think about

By the book Christianity is hell on earth but for various reasons, christian majority countries managed to give the middle finger to christian clerics and fanatics and move from there.

Not a single Muslim majority country in the history of the world did the same and that's our problem

Your father was probably born in South African or Rhodesia I guess. I was born in West Africa and you know the square root of **** all about the countries you mentioned.

Man we would have wasted a lot less time if I had known this from day one

Meaning what?

Yes the famous French communities of South Africa and Rhodesia (eyeroll).
What are these weirdo "let me guess your family" posts?

Also where did I ever mention these things you seem so intent on proving? You seem very angry about something and I can't make sense of what.


You talking about places you clearly have no knowledge of.

Where did you go in Nigeria that was Muslim?

Do you think Christian Nigerian men help more with the pots and pans than Muslims?


by jalfrezi

You talking about places you clearly have no knowledge of.

You do that literally every day with Israel, and here you are
Anything you've seen from Israel you've seen on Youtube and social.

So that can't be the criteria for a post itt, now can it?

Because if that IS the criteria to post on something, please sir, the door is that way.

Ah, backtracking from I've travelled extensively through West Africa and allow me to present to you my findings on the Muslim community, to actually no, I've watched some youtubes though.

But even that. Where is the post where I said I travelled extensively through Nigeria. This is what I mean. You're mad about things that aren't real.

lol where did anyone SAY this?

I can't tell if it's happy hour where you are or what.

Completely owned and exposed Al-Jafrezi for the unrelenting, uninformed hypocrite that he is.

Well done Rafiki.

Sometimes I truly don't understand what's happening itt with these weird exchanges like that last one. At times I'd almost prefer the simplicity of the rape denial.

I did kind of like the minute I was from South Africa. I dig that accent.


Rafiki and jalfrezi, please be careful to avoid personal attacks. It’s feeling very close to the line right now. Maybe you both should take a few minutes away from the thread and have a snack?

What's your ethnicity (or your ethnicities) according to your definition of the word?
