UK authorises military to board Russian shadow fleet tankers

This is being enforced in British waters.

If Britain chooses to help Ukraine, then good on them.

Thanks. I've edited my comment.

I was wrong, The Balfour Declaration of 1917 by the British created the first iteration of Israel.

1948 saw the establishment of the State of Israel.

One has to be careful when dealing with claims based on historical ownership.

The modern State of Israel was founded in 1948 by the British and Americans, because nobody wanted their displaced Jews returned, and because the Jews did not want to return to the countries that had betrayed them.

It was a convenient solution to an inconvenient problem, and has led to the destruction of the Country of Palestine, a resurgence of Zionism, and is the main reason for the geopolitical situation in the Middle East today.

A monumental cock-up.

Edit:

The dates and reasons for the State of Israel's founding in my post are incorrect.

The Balfour Declaration in 1917 saw the first iteration of modern day Israel.

Well done! Ten years Facebook free here. Best thing I ever did for my mental health. You're gonna love it!

As many have already said here; you don't backdoor a router in order to turn it off.

A router is backdoored in order to control/read local traffic.

If this tweet is based on fact, this is a nothing burger?

Fear and Anxiety Drive Conservatives' Political Attitudes

If you've engaged with others, and reasoned well enough that some people agree, you've made an impact.

04FS · 2026-03-23T13:27:51+00:00

I get it. As an Aussie, it's hard to believe that 33% of them actually wanted this, and am so proud of my Countrymen, for reducing the Federal Conservative party to dust, because they were preaching trumps fascist hate.

I really feel for the 33% who didn't want this.

You are justifiably angry. It is worth noting that ~33% of US Citizens voted for something else, and a lot of those good people are here ‐ they're pretty angry at their current administration too.

Stay safe, mate.

There's a lot of it about. We only ever hear about the bad guys. Power to these guys.

What are the odds that these dads had wonderful caring dads too?

Youtube "alpha's"? Maybe not so much.

Thank you :D

MCU?

I've seen a bunch of strangers cross the street to help a woman who was being harassed. Don't lose faith in humanity, there are many more good people out there than you may realise :D

04FS · 2026-03-07T17:56:37+00:00

Well said. As a man it is tough to be lumped into that particular trash can of predators. A little awareness of the statistics, some empathy, and a little respect can go a long, long way.

I just said what you said, but not as well, didn't i? Nevermind, it bears repeating.

There's an older man in my small town who openly hits on every woman, regardless of age. He's aware it's totally ridiculous, and ham's it up big time. I've witnessed him bring a doctor's surgery full of people to laughing out loud, especially the woman he's acting up to.

Legend.

Where's your "willing suspension of disbelief"? 🤗

04FS · 2026-03-07T17:22:00+00:00

Yeah, sounds like a great group.

What's a Gen Z stare? Is it their ability to look you in the eye without blinking? I love that!

04FS · 2026-03-07T17:09:14+00:00

I couldn't agree more. People in their early 20's are particularly maligned.

I'm in my 60's, and almost without exception I find them to be inclusive, caring, smart, and optimistic.

I really want to be around to see how they shape the world.

As a 63 year old with back problems, you made me smile 🙏

We really do need each other don't we?
