Put it away

Penny Not-Very – Bank of America has revenue of 115 billion. How much of a percentage increase do you reckon Key would take home from his shares when BoA buys 10% of company which typically posts a loss of $10 million?

why should the Turks admit genocide of 1.5 million Arminians?
According to their Islamic law they didn’t.

They entered into a Dhimma (contract) with the Arminians when they conquered them.
They wouldn’t convert to Islam, so as they were people of the book, the Turks offered them Dhimmitude.

For a Jeyza each year they were able to keep their lives as long as they obeyed the Sharia for Dhimmis.

That meant their women might get raped and they could do nothing about it, they crops might be stolen and they could do nothing about it, they couldn’t ride on a horse but an ass, providing they weren’t higher than any Muslim, if so they had to get off, they couldn’t repair their churches nor may their churches be bigger than the mosque, they couldn’t wear finer clothes than the Muslims etc etc.

All designed to crush their spirits.

But they didn’t did they?

They asked for freedom and dignity as Humans and as a consequence they broke the Dhimma because they didn’t convert to Islam.
So they were Killed as they had signed the contract which they broke.

So why should the Turks admit to genocide, the Arminians broke the contract and they were Dhimmis anyway.
Big deal.

that isn’t strictly true, the French troops were arabic and black, the french have already had problems with AQ killing/attacking the muslim/arabic troops as they hate that they are assisting the crusaders against Muslims.
This is known and understood.
I suspect that the French politicians were trying to downplay the issue for PC sake.

Meanwhile,

POAL have had to go back to work with their tail between their legs. Instead of attacking wharfies’ working conditions, they’d be better off negotiating a collective agreement in good faith. Too much to ask?

Could be.
My point was just that I don’t think Kowtow’s ‘government discrediting Marie Le Pen’ works logically as a theory.

‘Dismissed paras attack serving paras’ was a reasonable guess initially as to who was behind it.
But yeah, so was AQ.

Maybe they didn’t want the public panicking that an AQ killer was on the loose and a risk to everyone (scarier than someone with limited potential targets)??
Or they’d worked out who it was but didn’t want to alert him before the raid??

Seems he’s still holed up, so not big on martyrdom for his cause!

Elaysee,
I have been following islamic issues closely for about 15 years. The BBC is not what it once was ..it is known as Al Beeb , Al BBcera etc..it is so pro islamic and so anti white British , note just how few white presenters they have..Al Jazzera was brought to NZ by muslim Malaysians. Malaysia is known as the Pakistan of the South East Asia. They have been sending ”missionaries ” to Australia , NZ and the Pacific countries for decades..It is a muslim missionary hub and training ground.
See Winds of Jihad for a good article on how the media outlets wanted these killings to be the work of Neo Nazis.
I do follow criminal matters but have no great talent there. One of my bros and my son have what I call visual or almost photograhic memories for things that they see. My bro did help police in another unsolved murder by having so much more info re a possible vehicle involved..This kind of memory would be a top asset if one was a detective..Unfortunately , I do not have it at all.
