I refer you to the Amnesty report above. Have you nothing to say about the West Bank? Isn't there a bit of a blockade, air sea and road, imposed on Gaza? I refer you to this report: https://actionnetwork.org/forms/american-jews-demand-the-israeli-government-ensures-that-all-palestinians-have-access-to-a-covid-vaccine?source=facebook&&fbclid=IwAR1ZSxqmmQNn5urOYuSBMoNKoPxwfE46nofgMjziDtQjGCze1Ri7tktWatM Nuff said.

No not at all.

Thanks.

Well done and thanks for sharing. You might like to try a book called "The Salt Path" https://www.theguardian.com/books/2019/feb/07/the-salt-path-raynor-winn-review

"Meanwhile nearly 5 million of Palestinians living under Israeli control in the West Bank and Gaza are being denied the vaccine. There could hardly be a clearer demonstration of how Israeli lives are valued above Palestinian ones by the authorities. End the discrimination. Read more here: [amn.st]" I think it's clear.

Israel?s army has demolished homes of nearly 80 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. Eighteen tents that housed 11 families in the northern village of Khirbet Humsa were razed late on Tuesday. A total of 74 people were displaced, more than half of which were minors, according to B?Tselem, an Israeli anti-occupation non-government organisation. The bulldozers and diggers also demolished sheds used as livestock enclosures, portable toilets, water containers and solar panels, on top of confiscating vehicles and tractors belonging to some of the residents. Palestinian Prime Minister Mohammed Shtayyeh called on the international community to intervene against Israeli troops? attempt to ?displace the citizens of Khirbet Humsa and tens of similar communities from their homes and lands?, pointing to the fact that Israel ?chose this evening to commit another crime? as the attention is focused on the United States presidential election. Abdelghani Awada, left homeless by the operation, told the AFP news agency that the Israelis gave people ?10 minutes to evacuate our homes?. ?Then, they started bulldozing,? he said. He said his family had lived in the area for generations and accused Israel of trying to ?empty the Jordan Valley of its Palestinian population?. The late-night operation was unusual given that so many homes were targeted at the same time, according to B?Tselem. ?Clearly, the intention is to force residents off the land by creating a man-made humanitarian disaster. But residents have told us they have nowhere to go,? said on Twitter Sarit Michaeli, international advocacy officer for the B?Tselem, adding that this was the first demolition in seven years of an entire herder community. The branch of Israel?s army responsible for civilian affairs in the West Bank, COGAT, said it destroyed structures that were ?built illegally in a firing zone (military training area) in the Jordan Valley?. The Jordan Valley is home to approximately 60,000 Palestinians, according to the UN, but nearly 90 percent of the land is part of what is known as Area C, the three-fifths of the West Bank that is under complete Israeli control. It includes closed military areas and about 50 agricultural settlements housing some 12,000 Israelis. Palestinians are barred from those areas and from the lands they own. They are forbidden from digging wells or building any kind of infrastructure without hard-to-get military permits. Anything built without a permit, from home extensions to tents, animal pens and irrigation networks, is at risk of demolition by the Israeli military [Jaafar Ashtiyeh/AFP]From 2009 to 2016, less than two percent of more-than-3,300 permit applications in Area C were successful, according to Peace Now, an Israeli anti-settlement group, citing official statistics. Anything built without a permit, from home extensions to tents, animal pens and irrigation networks, is at risk of demolition by the Israeli military. Almost 800 Palestinians, including 404 minors, have already lost their homes in 2020. Throughout the entire previous year, 677 lost their homes, up from 387 in 2018 and 521 in 2017.

Israeli security forces committed ?heinous killings? throughout 2020, shooting dead at least 27 Palestinians across occupied Palestinian territories and in Israel, according to Israeli rights group B?Tselem. ?Over the course of 2020, Israeli security forces killed 27 Palestinians, seven of them minors: one in the Gaza Strip, 23 in the West Bank [including East Jerusalem] and three inside Israel,? B?Tselem said on Monday.

Israel is receiving praise for one of the fastest covid vaccination roll-outs. But this is for citizens of Israel only, including settlers living on occupied Palestinian land and Palestinian residents of Jerusalem. Meanwhile nearly 5 million of Palestinians living under Israeli control in the West Bank and Gaza are being denied the vaccine. There could hardly be a clearer demonstration of how Israeli lives are valued above Palestinian ones by the authorities. End the discrimination. Read more here: http://amn.st/6183HVa73

I could test your ariel with an analyser if that might help.

Such Hilarity.

Not me!

Thanks.

No but other people have in the past.

Notes from a Small Island is good, funny and uplifting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Notes_from_a_Small_Island Also The Road to Little Dribling, interesting and funny. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Road_to_Little_Dribbling Good reading!

Any thing by Bill Bryson.

Definitely the Gowlett! The staff are doing a brilliant job.

It's a scam. Answer it and friends will email asking if you are in trouble and need help. One clue is they may say they have lost their "cell phone" rather than mobile.

Try the council. If they are using wheelie bins they can fined up to ?1000.00

Surely it's about time the council put speed humps on Amott Road instead of blocking off roads. I have seen so many idiots speeding very fast and with a childrens nursary and a primary school at the bottom there's bound to be an accident.

Whu on earth did your friend do that?

Ok thanks but what about all the other road closures?

Who gave the council a mandate to close any roads?
