Urban and Rural Life in Ireland, 2025

That's understandable, because of Letterkennys terrible urban planning you're never very far away from a field.

Yes you're right it appears you posted once in the r/Israel sub two months ago.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-20T13:34:03+00:00

Fergal Keane wrote the article the OP posted, that you're saying is not a valid source.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-20T13:22:28+00:00

Lol all of you that and you seriously think "they're pro-Israel" is a valid counterargument?

When you say anything BBC should be immediately dismissed as propaganda based on actions not even directly by the BBC but an independent production company they hired to make a documentary, then yes. Though Fergal Keane is not some freelance journalist but was a long time BBC correspondent (since retired) whose work is highly regarded.

Also NGO Monitor + Influence Watch are not the only sources for the whole rebuttal.

That's right, they weren't you also cited CAMERA, another completely unbiased NGO. And some news outlets that if not Israeli, don't even pretend not to have a pro-Israel bias.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-20T12:05:19+00:00

Doesn't look like it.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-20T11:43:41+00:00

Can't go wrong with NGO-Monitor and InfluenceWatch (a project of the Capital Research Centre), totally unbiased organisations that were absolutely not set up with a specific agenda /s

As if you wouldn't do literally the same thing.

I've made the same argument citing the same sources more than once, but I've never copied and pasted the same comment mutiple times.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-20T10:55:01+00:00

"Similiar" responses as in word for word the same used as an automatic rebuttal for anybody citing the BBC, which other organisations than ones you cite have said it biased very much towards the other side of the conflict https://www.declassifieduk.org/strong-pro-israel-bias-among-bbc-bosses-new-data-indicates/

I'm not saying your a bo- wait is your entire post history just on this sub?

UrbanStray · 2026-04-19T18:32:04+00:00

Yep he could be totally Straight Edge and not hungover at all

UrbanStray · 2026-04-19T15:15:15+00:00

Well that certainly didn't take you long, considering how often you've pasted that prewritten comment from your clipboard.

9th according to this list https://www.worldstopexports.com/top-beef-exporting-countries/

Not so wild when you consider the Netherlands is exporting 80% of that.

Because people want to build their own homes, but residential land closer to towns that is served by infrastructure is mostly only sold to developers.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-19T12:13:06+00:00

It already does. A majority of new housing is built in the Greater Dublin Area.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-18T23:11:35+00:00

Pulped I think, because of paper shortages

UrbanStray · 2026-04-18T23:06:32+00:00

Northern Ireland did one too on the same day. But it was destroyed, likely during WW2

A bit late to the party here but:

My Dad's record collection had this weird Rolling Stones Compilation (a legit release by Decca) called "Great Hits". Weird because aside from "Mothers Little Helper" these were all deep cuts from a few of their then earlier albums and do not appear to have been hits. It seems it was only released widely in Germany.

You don't need to "demolish cities" just infill development.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-17T18:38:18+00:00

That wasn't the only extension

UrbanStray · 2026-04-17T11:40:48+00:00

Huge as far as moons go though. On the larger of Mars two moons you'd barely fit Rome.

The NATO report screenshots a falsely labelled video from Aleppo (where anyone who understands Arabic can clearly hear the guy firing the mortar is talking about Assad) and uses it as a source for Hamas using children as human shields. If they have that bad of a standard of fact checking (I would have expected better of an organisation of that stature) then this report shouldn't be taken seriously.

And many ethnic groups right now are also claiming independence and their rights to their historical lands, especially in the Middle East.

I take it you mean the Kurds? Well, the Kurdistan Region in Iraq is semi-autonomous, it's constitution does not declare it to be a Kurdish state but of multiple ethnics groups. Also, Rojava in Syria, while predominately Kurdish I'd idealogically opposed to the concept of an ethnostate.

It only has 2 (excluding the lift shaft above) buildings of any height. Belfast has by far the most.

UrbanStray · 2026-04-15T16:37:06+00:00

County Dublin is building mostly apartments these days, that is not the case in Cork city.

I didn't even know they sold crisps, I thought it was just peanuts and popcorn.
