Or all the Hamas terrorists working for the UN.

This seems hardly like a recurring theme. But clearly seems legal under british law.

Seems like she can and should be tried in Syria.

The Daily Telegraph reported that Begum had developed a reputation as an enforcer amongst other members of IS and had tried to recruit other young women to join the group.

I’m having a hard time working up any sympathy honestly.

She’s a citizen of the caliphate or whatever now?

Delta flight attendants are non-union. They’ve also had industry leading pay for… forever. Delta pilots are union and also have industry leading pay.

I don’t understand what you mean.

The only thing a little ironic is that delta FAs are the best-paid of any US airline.

Their deal is literally better than all the union deals - and the unions were scrambling to match.

It’s mid-deep dish, so crispy on the bottom/sides and a little chewy in the middle.

I’m a New Yorker so I also have a preference for pizza that is foldable, but the bottom is crispy enough that it cracks when you fold it, but Detroit pizza is good. They use cupping pepperoni, like Buffalo, which I think is superior to the pepperoni we use broadly in NYC.

Oh, huh - thanks for the source and being correct!

What did we sell them last time?

Detroit pizza is pretty good. It’s more or less a hybrid between Chicago and New York that matches the geographic location, same with Buffalo.

This is the sale to Greece to make them less mad. The sale to Turkey was a while ago.

The despots are currently extracting their pound of flesh for Sweden.

It was the price of getting Finland Sweden into NATO unfortunately.

The F16/ to turkey was quid pro quo for Turkey to let Finland Sweden into nato. Which of course made the Greeks unhappy, so we sold them weapons so they weren’t unhappy and could defend against Turkish aggression. It also makes them a more capable ally.

Is one of those restrictions that the woman, who can’t go anywhere without a male relative, has no say?

Charity is a big talking point for Rs too, they just don’t think the state should do any of it. Lots of them still tithe.

Which countries are shining examples of Islam at work? I’m having a hard time coming up with any that don’t have staggering wealth inequality.

Abortion, abstinence, women’s subservience. American Arabs vote democrat because the republicans would be happy if they were dead.

But if you asked a practicing Muslim and a republican for their views on a wide range of issues except which god you worship, you’ll find there are many more similarities than you are suggesting.

Famous for their distributing the wealth to people who need it, the UAE, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar are positively wonderful places for the working class 🙄

Snape killed dumbledore.

They agree on a lot of things - but the color of their skin and the god they respectively worship is a real big divide.

For anyone on the outside who doesn’t care which god or skin color, they look practically identical.

Jokes on them, still didn’t read it.

I don’t think anyone is surprised that Arab leaders don’t like Biden right now. Not exactly a brave new take that would be surprising to anyone.

It sends a message, I guess. But doesn’t change anything.

But I can be both simultaneously? I can feel solidarity with someone while acknowledging we aren’t the same, I’m fantastically in a better position and my lived experience is nothing compared to theirs?

Telling someone who’s food insecure making $15k/yr and the dude who’s 1 week from bankruptcy making $80k/yr don’t have much in common life experience wise, and the dude making $15k would trade in a heartbeat. Because they’re actually starving.
