I will answer it this way.
I have been a builder for over 40 years.Have put 15 apprentices for many backgrounds through their carpentry apprenticeships.Personally trained by the way.included one of the first ever females to be taken on as an apprentice.Also took on a kid with severe Aspergers as no one would employ him.All this before inclusion and virtue signalling.Oh and the girl was gay.
I have done over 400 jobs for clients from just about every Race and creed. Not once did someone call me a racist.That only happened here.
Many asked me where I hailed from and I told them.No worries .No offence.No suspicion. Only on this thread.
And then when I lay out where my heritage came from your clique happily construed the history.
Having said that I have instructed BT(the mod) to remove all and sundry of my association on this forum.
Please then circle around and hand clap and be joyous.
No response needed.
3 things
1. nice story about your work history but what has that got to do with the question? You were questioning what I had done to make a comment about Dutton’s quote on Trump
2. I have specifically stated I am not calling you a racist. I said I don’t think you understand what racism is.
3. Never questioned your heritage, not really interested tbh. Still not sure what it has to do with Trump’s plan for Gaza which is the context of why you introduced it.
Cheers

Look at me, I employed minorities without abusing them in any way.
You don’t realise how you come across, this is what I find amusing.
He’s been caught out and now is deploying the classic leaving-as-the-good-martyr routine
Trunks 1.5b cabinet.
Draining the swamp at its finest.

Big news will be announced tomorrow. Dutton will release his signature policy.
Here is a sneak peak at it

I think that discussion should be left alone Carter. No reason to suspect what he says is not true.
It’s just not relevant to the discussion on the thread.
I believe his post 100%
Most of us wouldn’t feel the need to say all that in the first place
I wasn't going to reply because you know fine well Hamas controls palestine .
If there was no hamas in palestine or any other terror group ,there would be no problem .
So why do Israel continue to attack the West Bank? There are no Hamas there
If Hamas didn't exist, Israel would have waltzed into Gaza already, exterminated the population, and built settlements there, just like they are doing in the West Bank.
If the State of Palestine is internationally recognised, and the Palenstinians treated equally to the Israelis and have self-determination, there would be no need for Hamas...they would dissolve.
Israel and the US is holding this process back. The ball is in their court. There would be no Hamas if they didn't steal land off Palestine, kick Palestinians out of their homes, slaughter and torture women and children.
Let me repeat, Israel have stolen land off the Palestinians and therefore are the agressors. Why aren't they the terrorists? Because they are white? The Palestinians only want their land back and live in peace.
If someone stole my land illegally, I would fight like hell until I got it back. Would you?
I don't know that because it isn't true.
The West Bank is in Palestine, East Jerusalem is in Palestine. Hamas controls neither. There are about 5.5 million Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem combined of which 2.3 million live in Gaza.
Do the nearly 3 million Palestinians in the West Bank have the right to defend themselves?
Edit: the Government of the West Bank, the Palestinian Authority, has formally recognised Israel's right to exist. They did so many years ago as they are the political successors to the old PLO.
A 510% increase in reported attacks on Islamic people since the Israel- Gaza war.
I look forward to reading about the public outrage including from our politicians .

Yes, anytime now Dutton will be on Sky news frothing at the mouth demanding Albo get stronger on the growing hate against muslims in our community, Albo will come up with a new set of laws specifically aimed at tackling vulgar Islamophobia, various media outlets will be running this story front and centre on their web sites and channels, and our police will be fronting news conferences condemning these terrible atrocities.
Any time now.
Should be pretty soon
Anything?
I'm waiting for that conservative pom pom waver Andrew Bolt to step up to the plate and highlight this outrageous increase in hate - like he has been the last few months for the Jewish community. We can count on his balanced, unbiased commentary.
Oh. That's right. For "whatever reason" he hates the ABC. Shucks. Guess that won't be happening then.

He may play bongo drums, but do you know what else he does? He puts politics ahead of the best interests of the country.
