Stop doing what they do and spreading false information! Just because you want it to be true doesn't make it true.

If you read the article you'll see she has other convictions for dishonesty and her story doesn't tally with when Trump knew Epstein or where Epstein was at the time. Hardly a strong basis for believing the story. It's more than just no evidence to back up the story.
For those not familiar with the Guardian it's a UK left wing news outlet/newspaper which regular wins journalism awards.
'The Guardian has identified a woman matching the biographical details in the FBI records. She has faced several fraud and theft charges in Washington and, in 2023, a felony charge for the exploitation of an elderly person in Georgia. It is not clear how those cases were resolved.'
'Her allegations have not been verified, and the FBI never brought charges related to her claims, which at times appear outlandish. Her statements also contradict what is known about Epstein’s life in the early 1980s'
I'm not saying he didn't do anything. Highly likely he did. He's a psychopathic sex pest but this revelation isn't going to be a game changer. Came out when Biden was president, FBI didn't action it then so hardly going to succeed with highly partisan Trump FBI.
No, just saying whether you believe it not it will be insufficient to lead to charge and conviction
More than just an uncorroborated statement. Are you familiar with the concept of beyond reasonable doubt. People make shit up all the time for money and attention. We had a case in the UK where someone made up a story about a Tory MP. His reputation in tatters and then story shown to be false.
Er. And...At the time FBI had it as not credible. Talking about money laundering in her company and people trying to run her over. Possible but sounds quite fantastical. Just that statement wouldn't be enough to convict. Just saying don't get over excited about it being significant.
It's kinda more innocent until proven guilty. Just because someone said something happened doesn't mean it happened
Although this woman apparently is recorded in the records as having a history of making false allegations and places things were supposed to have happened don't tally.
It was still launched from Lebanon who are acting with Iran as Hezbollah. A moot point to say it wasn't from Iran. The intent is still there .
Just because my view is politics is complicated and real world complexities lead to having to partner countries we don't all agree with. You extrapolate I support slavery and genocide. I'm guessing you weren't in the debating society at school.
I have a problem with slavery and genocide there you go. Not much I can do about it though is there? Not sure where genocide comes into a discussion about USA attacking Iran.
I'm sorry what part of my messages ever justified genocide or defended the occupation of foreign soil. Good luck with finding that moral way whatever that is.
I don't overlook genocide and slavery, just not much I can do about it because I don't run things. I support the Green Party, and actively involved in supporting local refugees, and donate to Just Stop Oil legal support. See nothing's black and white.
I don't know what benefit it is but nor do you. Still not mentioning Cyprus. Stuck on UAE is that an awkward point for your argument?
You don't know me. How arrogant. Someone disagrees with you so they're a moral vacuum. That makes you right about everything does it. I'm just saying there's another way of seeing it and life's not as clear cut and simple as you want it to be.
Life's complicated. If we cut ourselves off from every country that has bad human rights records we wouldn't trade with anyone. Still not mentioning Cyprus then. Do we have a right to defend our forces in Cyprus or just sit back and let the missiles fly in.
I wondered when you were going to get personal. You know nothing about me. Typical arrogance. Are you an expert on international affairs or just spouting opinions from your room. Why can't you discuss something without getting abusive.
You seem to have very black and white views. Unfortunately life is more complicated. Starmer wasn't told that Iran was going to be attacked. He's defending Cyprus and allies in the region and scrambling to evacuate 140000 British. I am anti the war but the UK has to protect its base and citizens.
But we have, so are we going to let them attack Br soldiers.
Your argument seems to be changing as I provide you with more information. You started off by saying how could we be defending against a country who is under attack now your arguing we shouldn't be defending countries under attack. You're not mentioning Cyprus. Shall we let them kill Br soldiers?
UK not involved in attack on Iran
Iran attack UK military Base
UK have right of self defence, hence involvement.
Well that's nice. I'm sure UAE like you too. Maybe there is a national interest in us maintaining good relations with them. For example they've been central to negotiations between Hizbullah and Israel. Oh, and they bombed Cyprus, did you miss that bit?
