    That was in his heyday as the first billionaire of note to take climate change seriously, at a time where big businesses were almost universally dismissing the idea of doing anything to mitigate it. It all made him something of a cult figure on the left but over time he’s been more and more...

    Voges is a weird one, he was spoken about as the next big thing as a kid playing state cricket, I think he was even in the test squad on a few occasions without getting games, then he spent the next 10 years or so being ignored until he debuted age 35. Granted he was emerging while the test side...

    You need an actual midfielder's instinct to really succeed in the role. Not everyone has that (see: Archie Perkins). It's probably an open question as to whether or not Redman has it.

    We’ve got good players, they just need a board who will tell them to play four quarters and that they need to be feared by the opposition. Many clubs are doing this

    Isn't the general rule of thumb that success is determined by the quality of the bottom 10 or so players in the 22 rather than the top 10? I don't know that Reid really helps with that

    No, it's a people with deep roots in a place getting driven off their land at gunpoint and onlookers wondering why they feel so strongly about it. That isn't to deny the strong Jewish connection to the region and to Jerusalem in particular but discussion of the present situation is pointless...

    The arabs living there mostly uninterrupted since the byzantines lost control. As you've alluded to, it wasn't always sunshine and roses but you're still talking about centuries of uninterrupted muslim rule until the west got itself involved in the middle east after WWI.

    It was mostly fine from about 650AD to 1917. The present day problems all stem from the ethnic cleansing of the native inhabitants to make way for the modern state of Israel. Groups like Hamas thrive on despair and anger, even a modicum of decency towards the palestinian people (e.g. a right of...

    Israel famously let in so much humanitarian aid that the US had to build a port in Gaza to help take some away before innocent civilians drowned in the huge piles of food and water

    Unless more info comes out you'd have to think Turkey would be high on the list of suspects since they've been arming groups like this for a while now. Either way they're probably the biggest beneficiaries. Whether or not it was intentional I'm not sure we'll ever know but Israel bombing the...
