It can be the case that the job of the opposition is to call for it to be released and the job of the government is to prevent it from happening. Each side states their case and each side pays the price in popularity, such is the way of pol

The Spanish population in general ain't that good when it comes to English and the quality of living in Spain is, in general, quite good. Weather and food are hard to replace. Which begs the question: "Well why don't they wor

Boycotting Israel is illegal for any company that works with state agencies. It's way more restrictive, yes. It's still surreal to me.

This is grasping at straws at an insane degree. If you compare the international blowback the US gets to any other country you are going to have a bad time because it has an extremely unique position in the world. And even if that wasn&#x

But you have to acknowledge, if these actions are not actually going to fix the problem, then they are actually psychopathic in nature. The "Well I have to do SOMETHING" rationale works when the "something" doesn't

Okay, say Israel enters Rafah, do whatever they want in there. Say they do a whole another pass over Gaza. Do you think the rest of the population just stands by? You can't treat people like Israel treats Palestinians and not have terr

I agree with you, but we are talking theory here. The algorithm doesn't count, it estimates. You can make an algorithm that counts, you can make an algorithm that estimates, this is the second.
