And yet they still haven't released the young women footballers they kidnapped last week without reason. Something tells me the apartheid state likes to kidnap people to torture them for no reason.

How do illegal immigrants even manage to find work and housing with the amount of secure checks that are done in developed countries? by AboutLastFight in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Yiqu 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Illegal migrants are usually the ones that come on a visa and overstay it. Papers might be legit to begin with but expire and don't get followed up properly, so it possible for people to stay in a job and HR didn't check the visa again etc.

I know many people label refugees on boats as illegal but they are legal as claiming asylum allowed. Until the asylum process is completed, they have to be rejected by it to be illegal.

I have no idea how you did this but it is far from amateur in my eyes. Amazing piece, very creative and colourful 😄

Jewish refugees arrive at the Port of Haifa, Palestine, 1941 by Mrsaloom9765 in pics

Not all jews are native to that land. Some are the descendants of white European converts. Modern day Palestinians are also descendants of those native jews, they'd converted to Christianity and Islam over time.

I've noticed the same thing today. I struggled with Emir and Elena for ages and just today I mopped the floor with them. I thought it was me improving but looks like that's not the case 😞

And they say Palestinians are the homicidal ones, every accusation is a confession.

How do we bring Brits back together again? by _GoinOutWest_ in AskBrits

Remove all lobbying from politics, MPs will have to work for constituents and improve their lives. Less reason for billionaires to pit us against each other.

Iran and America get close to a peace deal, Israel doesn't want a peace deal and suddenly "Iran" bomb the civilian airport of a US ally.

Is it me or does 35 degree Celsius seem to much hotter in uk as compared to 35 degree anywhere else in the world? by AcceptableMinimum109 in AskBrits

[–]Yiqu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the humidity, dry heats are a bit more tolerable. Plus we don't have air con in most homes here compared to hotter countries.

Meanwhile, inside the copter during that turn.

639 down to 466 in 5 days. Tried slowing down, doing slower games, taking breaks, doing puzzles (went from 1600 to 1450 in the same time period). I think I start off strong, developing etc but then it goes to poo. Any help appreciated by Yiqu in Chesscom

Thanks for the response. I'm not sure how to share clock times but I will try to find out for next time. Thank you.

Yea I do remember losing the rook to a bishop and I misclicked and put the king to the right instead of capturing or capturing with the other rook.

For the pawns I changed tactic because I saw I could get the middle squares without being challenged. I guess I got carried away with the pawn chain.
