Wow. I've had so much respect for Arne Slot but this is absurd. The media would be gorging itself on ridicule and insults if Arteta said anything like this. Slot is 100% wrong on this hilarious claim, btw. I guess he had his eyes closed the many times that Salah & Diogo Jota "fell to the floor"

Arne Slot, Ahahahha...
Imagine if Arteta ever made sh*t up like this.

The death toll in Gaza remains unknown, and statistics have become a contested tool to understand the scale of the genocide. But even if we had an accurate number of deaths, we still wouldn’t understand the depth of its meaning.

Israel has killed nearly 100 Palestinians and wounded at least 230 since the 'ceasefire' went into effect on October 10.

many Jews themselves who were not part of the emigration movement to Palestine said the same thing. At that time, it was perfectly respectable to say these things.

The New York Review of Books published this piece by a liberal zionist in 2015. Marred by the author's ideological limitations, it nevertheless provides interesting info on Jewish terrorism in the 1930s & 1940s in Palestine archive.is/U7zuD

Waited until the game was over to comment because I didn't think United could hold on. Fantastic result for Arsenal. That's 4 defeats in a row for Liverpool. Amorim won at Anfield, wow! #LIVMUN

yes, like many zionists, he selectively chooses which parts of the Bible to believe and which to believe. The Bible also mentions tribes who were living in the "promised land" before the Israelites got there.

😆Fern invents a transparent excuse to rationalize Bill Maher's belief in the Bible when it fits his zionist agenda. Of course Maher & Fern both ignore the inconvenient fact that the Bible mentions tribes who were living in the "promised land" before the Israelites got there. @fernlove.bond

yeah, sweetie, this is a load of crap to rationalize a SELECTIVE reading of the Bible in order to "prove" something that fits Maher's agenda. The Bible also mentions tribes living in the "promised land" that God "gave" to the Israelites, which he conveniently ignores, like you do.

Just five days ago, the Slender-billed Curlew’s status was updated to Extinct. You can help end extinction of waterbirds through support of conservation organizations like International Bird Rescue, and by learning more about conservation science through IUCN.

Whoever came up with the idea of mocking this gratuitously cruel regime with cute, nonthreatening plastic frogs really hit a gold mine. The clever imagery has made it all the way across the Atlantic.
