Maybe people in Israel have a much clearer idea of how far down the ladder really goes than most, given that they live right next to people the world has basically decided have no real rights. :disappointed:

Maybe the steps arent linear, maybe the ladder is part of a logarithmic scale. Each step down is far worse than the previous one.

Ok, I admit It doesn’t explain why they feel this way.

McGregor Threatens Irish Gov: ‘You Have 12 Days!’

https://www.msn.com/en-ca/sports/mma/mcgregor-threatens-irish-gov-you-have-12-days/ar-AA1BjhfN

“ This is pretty wild to see: McGregor is threatening to go over the Irish government’s head and get the United States government involved in the internal affairs of the country. Here we were wondering whether McGregor intended to run for president of Ireland. Instead he’s looking to force his political demands on the country using the threat of U.S. intervention as the stick.”

Erdogan has condemned the demonstrations and accused the CHP of trying to “disturb the peace and polarise our people”.

The jailed politician is seen as one of the most formidable rivals of Erdogan, who has held office in Turkey for 22 years as both prime minister and president. However, due to term limits, Erdogan cannot run for office again in 2028 unless he changes the constitution.

Meanwhile, Istanbul University announced on Tuesday it was revoking Imamoglu’s degree due to alleged irregularities. If upheld, this would put his ability to run as president into doubt, since the Turkish constitution says presidents must have completed higher education to hold office.
