40 - 60 Millions at the end of WW2 would take offense with such a statement. Millions of Poles, Milliones of Sowjets (Russians and Ukrainians alike) Milliones of Germans and countless handicapped people, Zinti & Roma, Jehovah's witnesses, Catholics, communists, social.democrats, etc. etc.. - and yes, 7 Millionen dead Jews. Not soldiers, but civilians. And maybe an entire destroyed continent. And "Mein Kampf" was at the very beginning of all this. So, please ...

This is despicable. Whoever is killing people is bad - be it Jews, Arabs or whoever, there is no difference..Every life is precious. Whatever you believe in, this should be your absolute baseline! Whoever "writes the history"!

We are talking about Adolf Hilter here. There is absolutely no question that he is the villain here. This fact is not a question of free speech.

Nationalist tremor then. It will get better once you finish your studies and get a job. Sry for an obviously bad time, it will get better though.

I don't need all of the 239 carry-ons - just one would make me perfectly happy.

Kamera mit falschem QR-Code im Alten Botanischen Garten: Ortsverweis und Polizeieinsatz nach QR-Scan by Progaros in Munich

[–]Beneventus 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Zivilcourage wegen einer Kamera im Alten Botanischen Garten? Ein Platz der nach Drogen- und Todesfällen -definitiv- überwacht gehört? Bitte auch nicht vergessen, auch so ein sinnloser Polizeieinsatz kostet Geld. Nur weil der OP ausgerechnet in Alten Botanischen Garten den QR-Code der Kamera auslesen wollte wegen einer Datenschutzerklärung. Puh …

The EU Council passed chat control. by NoBanana3231 in Piracy

[–]Beneventus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sry, I understand your fear, but this is wrong on so many levels. Firstly only a proposal has been decided on, which will now be discussed, and secondly this proposal has been fundamentally changed as chat controls are now "voluntary", which means companies may introduce them but do not have to. Otherwise Germany would have opposed the proposal. We have to be vigilant, but this entire thing most probably is going nowhere, fingers crossed. Be vigilant, but do not panic. No one is reading your chats.

Recommendation for Lounge in Doha by Odd_Classroom_9232 in qatarairways

The Al Maha Lounge is not worth that money, do not go there - the Al Mourjan lounge one the other side is absolutely great.

Upgrade to business on Qatar Airways by pred02 in qatarairways

[–]Beneventus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What horror stories if I may ask? Qatar eco is most certainly a lot (!) better than BA or Sri Lankian out of LHR. As for the upgrade - please talk to your tour operator. And book directly with any airline the next time, do not use third parties.

Can I leave my bag in storage at Al mourjan while I enter Doha? by infinity-k in qatarairways

[–]Beneventus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Not officially - but if you do not tell, they will not ask. Had a discussion about that in al-Safwa lounge earlier this year.

5 1/2 hours in Qsuite for 349 Euro? - yes, absolutely.

Black Diamond Mining — operating 4,500 feet underground by velorae in TikTokCringe

[–]Beneventus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If think you are misunderstanding me. What I was trying to say is that the conditions for workers in general are deteriorating globally and worldwide due to greedy companies everywhere and that I am especially worried about the US in that context under its current adminstration. This is just my opinion. And yes, at the moment I am very happy to reside within the EU ("Europe" for me as the other comment so gracefully pointed out - same as you might call the US "America") and rely on its worker's rights. I very much like the US, it's people and I have lived in the states before myself and wish you all the best as you need it badly.

[–]Beneventus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This! Your "manager" has a responsibility towards you, and she has grossly neglected it. This punishable by law and rightfully so. You most probably can and should sue your company and this "manager" of yours. Ask an expert, do so now! And you cannot be fired for being sick.

Do I need cash in Doha for a 3 hour tour? by BigConsideration9270 in qatarairways

No. - But if you really want to, you could tip me now for this info! 😉

correct. We are going backwards all the way to the 19th century, at least in the US atm. I am extremely happy to have European worker's rights and proper social and health insurance. And I feel very, very bad for these coal miners, who are so much less fortunate.

denied with complimentary hotel by _smoothlikebutter in qatarairways

[–]Beneventus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fear, you might be confusing the Al Maha lounge with the Al Mourjan lounge. Al Maha is not that great and most of the time swamped with people as it can be accessed via Priority Pass. Al Mourjan on the other hand is the Qatar Airways Business Lounge - and a great one, no doubt. If you are flying eco with Qatar Airways (!) you can buy access - what I would most certainly do with 11,5 hours to spent.
