    Did Hamas use Indonesian Shifa Hospital as a human shield ?

    I know next to nothing about the people in Papua, so I cannot help you with that. I don't see how your question is relevant to the topic of this thread though.

    Did Hamas use Indonesian Shifa Hospital as a human shield ?

    When a people are chased from their land and forced to live somewhere where they are oppressed, have few freedoms and few prospects for the future, it is not unexpected that they will rebel against it. With all the attendant excesses. Even if Israel succeeds in eradicating Hamas, if the...

    An El Niño year…. 🌞

    So far this year the dry season has been very hot and dry. Many people have suffered from this to a greater or lesser extent. The farmers especially, many of whom have had their crops fail partially or completely due to a lack of rain. This was already somewhat predicted as we are in an el-Nino...

    Warning from US State Department

    One of the ways Israel removes palestinians from land and homes they have owned for generations, is by requiring them to prove that they legally own it. Either by deed or title or whatever. Since many don't have that, they use this as an easy trick to clear an area of Palestinians. Now, in this...

    Warning from US State Department

    Jews from around the world* are permitted to settle in Israel. They settle in areas and even in houses from which non-jews (Palestinians) have been evicted. The Jewish people (zionists) believe they have the right to live there under the Law of Return, even if it means that they have to kick...

    Warning from US State Department

    I don't know, but this is from 4 days ago (19 oct): UNITED NATIONS (AP) — The U.S. vetoed a U.N. resolution Wednesday to condemn all violence against civilians in the Israel-Hamas war and to urge humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza, saying it was too early to craft an appropriate Security...

    Are you ready for Jokowi-Prabowo 2024?

    There are over 190 countries worldwide, and I can't name them all. Let alone that I know their policy on excluding certain groups from government-funded universities. Or which parts of their legislation could be racist and how that compares with other racist legislation from other countries and...

    Are you ready for Jokowi-Prabowo 2024?

    What form of racism are we discussing then? I asked you to support your claim of Indonesia being one of the most racist countries. Measuring and determining how racist a country is, is quite a challenge. Especially if you want to throw a country's history into the mix. What standards are you...

    Are you ready for Jokowi-Prabowo 2024?

    I am aware of the existence of racism in Indonesia. But if you say that Indonesia is one of the most racist countries in the world, then I ask you how you determine that. How do you measure that and how do you compare it with other countries? In what order do you place the different types of...

    Are you ready for Jokowi-Prabowo 2024?

    And they inherited this from the Dutch, right? Anyway, is this just an opinion or do you have any research to back this up?

    A middle East perspective

    Still, things could have been so much worse. I read somewhere that the Dutch had the worst colonial system because they are well known racists and apartheid practitioners. Luckily the Palestinians have been under British mandate; they left a good administrative system.

    (Non-Native English Teachers Platform) Any non-native English Teacher (with S1 or + in English Teaching) expats on spouse kitas/kitap other than me ?

    Quite a few years ago I had a work visa as a teacher of my native language as well as of English. I had agreed this with the institute where I would be working. I ended up teaching little in my native language, but I did teach English.

    CIA Front Group Preparing A "Color Revolution" In Indonesia?

    It looks to me the OP of the second quote in your post was a bit confused about the use of double negatives also.

    An El Niño year…. 🌞

    So your reasons for opposing these plans are economic? Please elaborate on how the higher(*) costs of additional production in Alaska contribute to inflation. The way I see it, if these agricultural companies cannot produce food for a reasonable price, they are not solvent and will simply go...

    An El Niño year…. 🌞

    Samoerai's link sheds some light on this. It's a mix, 20 acres up to 640 acres. (An acre is equal to 1/640th of a square mile. Yes, 1/640th.) west of Nenana. When I look at google maps, it doesn't seem there are any people living in that area. Unless you mean Alaskans in general. Exactly! As...

    How Indonesian resort island Bali became a refuge for Ukrainians and Russians

    You mentioned 'a xenofobic closed border' in a reply to Pantai's post about 'bogus asylum seekers', we are clearly not talking about investors. Poland works hard to help hundreds of thousands of Ukrainian refugees, however they do not accept muslim refugees. This seems to be working out fine for...

    How Indonesian resort island Bali became a refuge for Ukrainians and Russians

    I can imagine why people will find this undesirable, but just for the sake of it, why wouldn't it work? Poland seems to be doing fine.
