Is "911" the United States "Holocaust"?

[Clippy]

I just don't understand why people focus on the Jews, when there's so much injustice all over the world, involving far more people over much greater areas. Perhaps it really is pro-Israel propoganda. It certainly seems to attract a dis-proportinate amount of attention and airtime - which starts from the axiom "Holocaust bad", and work from there, regardless of anything else.

Two sides to every story and that...

Sorry to veer off topic, but how come so many of you European (continent) residents seem to get British TV? Mich similarly seems to know what's on UK channels, and yet I don't receive Dutch or German TV. Or even French for that matter.

When I was in NL most TV was via cable. BBC1 and BB2 was included as a free channel.

Britain's nuclear inferno: How our own Government covered up Windscale reactor blaze that's caused dozens of deaths and hundreds of cancer cases

It was in 1956.

At that time long term effects of radiation sickness were not fully understood and given nuclear arms race there was always element of secrecy about it.

Here is what happened in USSR at the same time:

It just gets funnier. The fire happened in 1956 or 57. Under the thirty-years rule, the information came out in 1987. Nice to know your keeping tabs on current events.

I don't know really. I get cable digital TV from our local supplier. (Well, I can switch to SwissCom or various internet TV providers). But generally, whomever you get it from, it has loads of different languages. Satellite isn't that popular, because you don't need it for most European languages. Basel is pretty cosmpolitan, but surely no more so than many British cities?

Being a naughty boy? Since when was voicing an opinion being naughty.

It's great. You infer something never implied. You couldn't make it up.

Let's try again. I'll try not to use any confusing long words: I can not add you to my ignore list because I'm a mod. Mod's cannot ignore anyone, because then they wouldn't be able to tell if they were being naughty.

So, if someone pisses us off, we ban them instead. Simples.

Are you implying that the holocaust wasn't bad? :nazi:

Ah, maybe we get them on cable.

Are you on drugs? Read what I posted earlier in this topic. Perhaps the part where I conceded the fact that you being a moderator meant that you had to read my posts.
