I think the hostages who have been released have concern for the hostages who are still being held. You are not going to hear the truth of how the released ones have been treated until all hostages are released.

The underground facilities that Hamas maintains in Gaza, are often placed under hospitals, schools, and mosques.. Under International law, “dual use” of civilian facilities makes them legitimate targets.

203 have been confirmed by Israel. Happy to see those two released but you wonder about the rest and why these two and not somebody else were released.

You can stop any game being played at Old Trafford, invade the pitch, have a sit in on the pitch, have people handcuff themselves to the goal posts, stop the opposing teams buses from getting to the stadium. Don't do any damage, don't disrespect the other team or damage their buses, just say you ain't playing today. If United drop 3 points every time they play at home they will be relegated and maybe the Glazers will leave. A pipe dream, and easy to say 3000 Mile's away, but I am getting desperate.

That is the problem. Glazers think they will get £10b in aa few years. They won't sell till they bleed the club dry.

This could expand quickly. Some in the US Congress will see this as an act of war by Iran. Senile Joe is in an election year and he is no better than even in the polls. Politi ans always think a good little war takes peoples minds of the domestic problems.

I guees we have far different views on what is left and right , I find all the mainstream media that I have access to in Canada, the US and the UK ( i know there's Tory newspapers in the Uk) are left of centre, not far left but diffently on the left. This time around if you look at the protests in the streets and on the university campuses, other than people with Palestinian heritage it is left wing political groups and individuals protesting. In the pro Israel counter protests other than the Jews, you see right leaning individuals and groups. Righly or not, in the West this conflict is being seen in terms of left v right as well as a conflict between Israel and the Arab world. Yes every American administration has been pro Isarel and remain Israel's biggest friend, and the US , British and Canadian media used to be, but they have changed over the last decade. The BBC and the CBC ( Canada) has forbidden their reporters and on air personnel from calling HAMAS terrorists. In Canada there are more interviews on TV with Palestinians than Israelis. The reporters with the big three networks in the US constantly challenge the Israeli spokesman , but take everything the Palastinian spokespersons say as Gospel. yeah Rucksackfranzose, the political terms, conservative, socialist , left and right have different meanings in Europe and North American. To me all European conservatives are too left for my thinking.

I believe the media gives Hamas a pass and are quick to jump on Israel because the mainstream media is left of centre and see this conflict in political terms of left v right. People other than those personal involved who support Israel are seen as right of centre , religious Christians and Trump supporters, while support for Palastinians is seen as pulling for the under dogs and picked up by the Left and overeducated white liberals. While it's hard to put a political spin on what Russia is doing, just seems old fashioned imperialism and the media hates colonialism. Putin is supposed to be on the left but acts like a right wing dictator, so it's hard for the political types to pin him down. Hard to say what Israel believes the situation is with the hostages, it could be they are trying to actually locate the many different places they are being held. These places will be likeca maze and booby trapped, so Israel needs accurate information and that takes time. I think if they believed all the hostages were dead , they would have already begun the ground attack.

Didn't the rocket explode in the parking lot where many had gone for refuge thinking the hospital is a safe place and it was the fuel still left in it that exploded and caused a fire? Resulting in more deaths outside the hospital than inside.

I am not happy at all. Owning only 25% , keeps the Glazers around. They needed to be gone completely. The Qataris' bid would have resulted in the debt being paid off, a new stadium , new training grounds, the development of the lands around the stadium and world class players being bid on. I don't see any of that happening under Ratcliffe . There is no guarantee that Ratcliffe's £1.4 billion will be spent on the club, I would be pleasantly surprised if any of it didn't end up in the pockets of the Glazers. They say Ratcliffe will have control of the football operations , but what does that mean if the £1.4 B isn't used to pay of the debt or improve the infrastructure around the club. United and its supporters have been hanging on since SAF retired, hoping against hope that things will turn around, its been a dark decade, but for me at least the Qataris buying 100% of the club was the light at the end of the tunnel. Now I feel I won't live long enough to see United win the Premier or the Champions League.

I think that given the circus around Man Utd, there shouldn't be any serious thought of sacking ten Hag. The Glazers refusing to go, with their sale/no sale, the Sancho, Anthony and Greenwood situations, the injuries to most of our starting defenders, Amrabat and Hojlund arriving injured, the inability to get rid of unwanted players and the financial restrictions due to FFP rules . It's doubtful anyone could have done much better.

Sancho isn't a kid anymore, he's played for three big clubs. He has burned almost all his bridges, it's time for him to grow up, or he will end up like Ravel Morrison.

They could be trying to self motivate him or give him a kick up the ass to chance his ways. Probably a last resort sort of thing, they have tried everything else but nothing has worked. Seems he had thevsame kind of problems at Dortmund, makes you wonder what he was like at City?
