@medievalgill I asked for the research and you responded with an excavation recorded in 1919.
If you don't understand your own comments then thats on you.
Isotope analysis on tooth enamel wasn't invented until the 1990s.
If you don't have time for this then don't tweet.
A skeleton excavated at Bettystown in county Meath was that of a man likely from North Africa or southern Portugal.
He arrived in Ireland sometime between the 4th and 7th centuries.
Wonder what his story was?
When I was a young Soldier in Afghanistan, we used to get rocketed daily. I’m pretty sure we were one of the more heavily targeted areas in the country during the time, with 6-12 rockets landing on our tiny combat outpost daily, minus Fridays.
There was an infantry senior NCO on the COP that would always be the last guy into the bunker. He would always make sure that all us young guys got in first and then he would come in.
One day, he was directing Soldiers into the bunker and getting accountability and he just froze. 10 feet from the bunker. All the color drained from his face and he just stopped talking and moving. Three of his guys went out and grabbed him and brought him in. That night, they put him on a helicopter and I never saw him again.
This guy had been on multiple deployments. Multiple firefights. He was well regarded. He was a good NCO.
Everyone has a breaking point. I often wonder how he is doing these days.
Incredible tribute in the skies.
RIP Capt. Seth Koval (38, Stoutsville), Capt. Curtis Angst (30, Columbus) and Tech. Sgt. Tyler Simmons (28, Columbus) all from Ohio's 121st Air Refueling Wing.
They were among the six airmen killed when their KC-135 Stratotanker crashed in western Iraq on March 12, 2026, during a refueling mission supporting Operation Epic Fury.
Thank you to the pilot who honored them this way. Never forgotten. 🫡
PAYING TRIBUTE: A pilot created a flightpath by drawing a service member and three headstones over Ohio to honor the state's Air National Guardsmen who died in an Iraq tanker crash while supporting Operation Epic Fury.
@MurrayHillGuy1 They don't actually look forward to that part
They look forward to daydreaming about what they could have instead
They fantasize about what life would be like if they hadn't wasted so much time being comfortable
How do people in the suburbs genuinely look forward to Friday night on the couch, Saturday morning at Costco, and call that a weekend?
Like you really moved out of the city just to LARP as your parents at 34?
When the Japanese live translation goes silent because the translators are too stunned to repeat your Pearl Harbor “joke” to the Japanese PM, you’ve officially reached a new level of diplomatic failure.
Those seconds of silence were the most honest reaction of the day.
Do you think Islam spread easily? It began under intense persecution and pressure. Yet Muslims believe — with 100% trust — in the Creator of the universe and everything within it and upon it. From the very beginning, they trusted that Allah would protect His message, and history shows that attempts to erase it have always failed.
This hostility is not new. Every prophet and messenger sent by Allah faced resistance, mockery, and opposition. When truth challenges corruption and arrogance, backlash is inevitable. But believers remain firm, because their trust is not in worldly power — it is in the Creator of all things.
Piers, what is disgusting is a major NYC Muslim leader saying we must give up our dogs because "NYC is coming to Islam"
We will not be shamed into being conquered like the Europeans.
I choose my dog.
I know my first appearance on your show didn't go well for you, but if you want to try again, I am happy to administer another beating.
@Game_Over_Man_@Nick_Delehanty The reason they use player of the match is to have the same term used for both Men’s and Women’s. That’s all I’m saying. What’s the problem with it
