@TzviaGreenfield @ryangrim You think Jeffrey Epstein and Alan Dershowitz wanting to defend their reputation is legitimate?

@ryangrim It never occurred to you that their distorted report on the alleged Jewish lobby might have been so fallacious and unfair that the attacked parties felt the urgent necessity to fight against these accusations in all legitimate means?! They have actually created this phenomenon

In 2006, two academics, John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt, wrote a paper called “The Israel Lobby,” which argued that a loose group of Israel supporters used their connections and financial resources to tilt US foreign policy in Israel’s direction. One of them, Stephen Walt, was academic dean of The Harvard Kennedy School, which put him at the pinnacle of his profession. The savage response to the paper was like nothing academia had ever seen. We can now report that Jeffrey Epstein helped coordinate the counterattack with Alan Dershowitz, while Larry Summers was Harvard president. And Les Wexner was one of the largest donors to the Kennedy School, if not the largest. Epstein controlled Wexner’s money. In other words, a loose group of powerful supporters of Israel used their financial resources and connections behind the scenes to destroy the reputations of two academics who wrote a paper arguing that a loose group of Israel supporters was using their connections and financial resources to shape American foreign policy.

@thesundaysport Because the life expectancy of a man who is born in and dies in Blackpool is 73 compared to 80 in London. The life expectancy gap between the wealthiest and the poorest means that there’s a gap in equality in the way in which the state pension is paid out.

Am I missing something here because this just sounds fucking mental?

@IanCook34884857 @JonJonesSnr Which consequence of immigration has made you worse off since 2008?

@JonJonesSnr If you truly believe that you just like him are not reading the room

Zack Polanski torched 15 years of immigration hysteria on #BBCQT last night. Watching the small boats narrative unravel was pure catharsis. A rare moment of truth in a sea of manufactured panic.

@AlanOsborn8 @IlhanMN If the right won’t obey those standards, why should the left? It’s pretty clear that taking the high ground does the left no favours because the right see it as an opportunity to sink to even further lows. Let’s enjoy politicians saying what everyone’s thinking for once.

@IlhanMN Remember Ms. Omar, despite the edict of free speech, according to the Codes of Conduct and Ethics for Congress, ALL members and employees SHALL BEHAVE “AT ALL TIMES” in a manner to reflect credibility on the house, as well as, put loyalty to the “HIGHEST MORAL STANDARDS”

Would love to see you get the help you need next. You belong in rehab, not Congress.

@biasbreakdown @mannyfidel Charlie Kirk said that black women did not have the brain processing power to be taken seriously. There is no possible way to be ignorant to that. To pretend it isn’t white supremacy and rank racism is to be ignorant yourself

@mannyfidel "Can they truly be so ignorant to the words of a man they have so rushed to memorialize?" I don't know... Can Coates truly be so ignorant to the words of a man he's so rushed to condemn?

@UnitedOpinion99 @benjonescricket Good for batting yeah. But having an opening stand of 180 odd on a day 5 pitch with one of the finest quicks of this generation going wicketless indicates too much of an advantage to the batters.

@ben_wall02 @benjonescricket Poor in what sense? England scored 350 on the 5th day on it… would be indicative of a good pitch no?

@David_warren198 @EllieChowns @metpoliceuk Careful, you don’t want to incur their wrath or you might end up with a splash of paint on your car next 😱😱

@EllieChowns @metpoliceuk here is an MP supporting a terrorist organisation.

I'm deeply concerned by reports that the Home Secretary plans to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation. This is a shocking overreaction to a couple of protestors using paint. 1/2

@nursingblues @barneyronay Not sure that’s the point of the tweet mate

@barneyronay How many are public school!

Perfect classical lines here, test cricket version of pure 4-4-2. Six batters, all-rounder at six. Keeper seven. Useful No8. Four right arm seamers and a finger spinner. Even got left hand right hand openers. Could be 1987. One quibble: captain ideally bats 3

@SamLewi27544805 @jimb0_12 Lords the past few years has been exceptionally flat, certainly the last two years. This game it’s been seaming off the deck like a spin delivery. Reckon it’s just been a really dry deck with exceptional fast bowling lending itself to seam movement

@jimb0_12 But also the ball has apparently moved less than expected from a Lords test. I just think both of these teams can’t bat

@jimb0_12 Don’t remember it ever being confirmed that he was asked to play? Think he just knew he would never get a game because it was assumed Leach would be our primary spinner and they’re basically the same type of bowler

@subhashis09 @ADeshmukh24855 @Vithoba_ @Brendennel You shouldn’t be giving anyone options. It should be the ICC giving options and if one party behaves like a spoilt brat then they should be treated as such and ostracised. The BCCI giving people options is precisely the issue. It’s an outrageous imbalance of power.

My cricket tweet seems to have touched a nerve. Hundreds of Indian cricket fans telling me to "cry more". Sigh. It is what it is. But they miss the point. Does it benefit India if only India survives and everyone else can't play the game anymore. My guess is they dont care

@abhi111189 @manish_dev_ @Brendennel Was the World Cup played in Jammu and Kashmir? Was the Champions Trophy? If Pakistan brave security threats to play in India then the same must be done by India. Otherwise don’t bother playing in the tournament. It’s spoilt behaviour and it needs to stop.

@ben_wall02 @manish_dev_ @Brendennel Really? Are you saying is no more attacks my Pakistan on India. Cross border terrorism is stopped. Pakistan is accepting Kashmir as part of India?

@VoidManSpeaks The India Pakistan relationship is a bilateral one. If Pakistan can play in India with no issue, there is no reason to say that India can’t play in Pakistan. Being able to squad select for one pitch rather than four like the rest is an absolute joke and gives a massive advantage.

@ADeshmukh24855 @Vithoba_ @Brendennel Absolutely. Which is why the BCCI is emboldened to act this way. Which is why there has to stop being this infiltration of the ICC by members of the BCCI so we can have people standing up to them without having to push the red button and banning them from ICC comps.

@ben_wall02 @Vithoba_ @Brendennel Then this is where commercial angle comes in to picture and its not easy to avoid. Without India there is no commercial success.

@Vithoba_ @Brendennel Or, considering all countries have a right to host ICC tournaments, if you don’t want to travel to a certain country based on spurious concerns, then don’t participate. It’s that simple. This superiority God complex Indian cricket has needs to stop now

Every participant Team knows the schedule well before the tournament, India’s stand on visiting PAK is known well before planning schedule. Why don’t other countries not asked for whole tournament in Dubai itself ? Or may be Sri lanka? No one opposed when schedule was declared. All Teams agreed this model. When you gets eliminated you starting blame game ?

@manish_dev_ @Brendennel Pakistan played in India in 2023 with no issue. You’re continuing to cry about issues that have been solved in terms of cricket security since 2009. It’s been 16 years. You need to get a grip.

@Brendennel "That's the thing, you're talking about playing a game while India faces cross-border terrorism. You’d have to experience it to know. Wish you never do, but try to see the other side instead of moral policing."

@SkyeKahoalii @Teh_Snowflake Nothing gets past you

@Teh_Snowflake that looks like an ai image, which would mean it's fake...

In Fascist Italy, authorities would leave Mussolini’s office light on at night. Why? To convince citizens that Il Duce was “working tirelessly for the People.”
