Quote from: Josquius on April 25, 2024, 02:37:05 PMWe clearly aren't talking about the Muslim world here though. We are talking about in the west.

If we exclude the Middle East from a discussion about Israel then things get kinda weird.

Much less weird than if we were to exclude the Near East.  :smarty:

Yeah.... It's totally the Palestinians who are the genocidal ones here...

Boz Scaggs - Lido Shuffle

It is only in the second half of my life that I have begun to realize how much the songs of my youth impacted me.  This was a timestamp of my life in the second half of the 1970s as a kid.

Huh - lots of guys wearing suits and ties.  I'm perplexed.

What's with all the facial hair on catalan politicians?  Does no one know how to work a razor?

So between #4 and #8 - never go with the guy with the red tie.  That in my experience either means a leftist, or a Trumpist.

#8 it is.

I was going to vote for the brunette, but then I saw the prominent cross necklace and switched to the blonde.  :lol:

Saw some pro-Palestinian graffiti today which I thought avoided any antisemitism: "let Gaza live".

Also builds on the story/characters of the first game, I think, so you may want to catch up on that story first.
