i will concur with this,  ultimately the US did topple a democracy even though the Shah was not ideal,  it was better than the hardliners ever would be.

These were people executed for being to "westernised" and "crimes against Allah". 

 

The  Shah regime a democracy? Are you completely moronic? Since when is an absolute monarchy a democracy? It's actually the exact opposite.Since democracy means "rule of the people" and aan absolute monarchy is in contrast the rule of a singular person. Really stop talking such a lot of bullshit.

Plenty of rumours election set to be called today for early July

Genuine question: Wouldn't that be pretty dumb from the Tories given the latest polls? You'd think they'd wait as long as possible with the next GE since they're looking like losing them with a bang!

Edit: Ignore just saw the last GE was 2019 , for some reason thought it had been later.

Yes, actually inexcusable. I forgot. Congrats on the win @nudge

Have you seen the names on the comment section of those channels,  full of American/Europeans that seem to pass comment like this was a Zionist agenda.   Leftists have gotten into bed with Islam,  one comment was "Iran need strong leaders if they want to fight the zionists" imagine how far gone you have to be to somehow think that this was America/Israels doing,  or to think that the death of "the butcher of Tehran" is a bad thing for everyone in general. 

Al Jazeera is owned by Sheik Hamad Ben Chalifa Al Thani from the absolute monarchist family of Qatar, you can't be politicallly more right than supporting an absolute monarchy. No leftist would use such media! So although you might disagree with the opinions raised on this site, that doesn't make the persons holding them leftist, yet. In other words you- again- used a political term you don't understand. Like libertarianism, communism, anarchism, woke, and monarchy. Seriously reading up political theory would be helpful for you. On a sidenote: As a jew you're expected to know that anti-zionism is even more widespread on the politigcal right than on the left. Also anti-Americanism isn't a leftist monopoly neither. Aw and while we're at it no going into bed with Islam isn't leftist since the political left is between other things defined as being anti-religious. Oops.

Congrats on the deserved win @Rajabhat Rovers! Thanks for running this, is always! @Stan

What exactly have Al Jazeera and Middle East Eye to do with the left, again?

Congrats 6666 and well done Rucks for running this game and will look forward to the next one. 

On a side note, thank fuck I never won the wooden spoon.  

Wel, @nawoo predicted less than half of the season, so no reason to celebrate that.

An very uneventful matchday for us. Worth mentioning both CaaC(John) and me won 2 points each with our identical Hoffenheim 2-0 Bayern prediction.

This is, and can't stretch that enough, not the final table. I'll count the bonus round in the course of the next hour and will post its result, depending on whether the league is decided or not (6666 has the chance to add 2 more points to his 3 he already has in the bag for his cup winner's prediction Leverkusen, if they defy the odds and beat Lautern in the final. ) either afterwards or next week.

Union surviving as it stands... 

And Bayern losing 2nd spot.

@Michael, @Bluewolf, @londonerlilie, @nawoo

Last reminder!

Bayern should stay calm: Tayfun Korkut, Michael Frontzeck and probably many other managers of their ilk are still available.

Seriously, though: Gradually Bayern are running out of choices mostly by their own doing, their new manager is already in the unfortunate situation of everybody knowing he wasn't their first or second choice. Would be smart, if they learned from this appointing disaster and wouldn't shout the name of their preferred personal option into the public as impertinent as they always used to since the 90s and did again this time in the future. Probably they won't though, which offers fans of other clubs the prospect of a lot of entertainment.

@Bluewolf, @Michael, @nawoo

Last reminder!

Game 135: 63rd min

Game 136: 8th min, please

Know there 20 teams in other leagues, in the Buli though there're only 18. That's why the 34th matchday is the last.

@Michael Have to admit you were right with your prognosis of Brandt being omitted. Seeing the midfield squad I'm wondering who should had been left out for him. Pavlovic perhaps? Possibly Groß, since I don't follow English football and therefore can't tell how good he has been? Genuine question. As for the others I had reservations to nominate Brandt at their expense.

3 hours ago, Coma said:

Honestly I think he was always the best option for Bayern.  It's not like he performed poorly... Leverkusen were just an unbelieveable team this season.  Squad still needs a major overhaul.  Upamecano, Goretzka, Choupo-Moting, Gnabry all need shipped out.  Probably some others.

Kim hasn't exactly been a revelation this season neither. Given how much praise he received in Italy and Serie A's reputation of being a league of excellent defenders.

The point spread is pretty similar up until the bottom teams.

If you're disregarding the gap between 1st and second spot at the older table you're indeed having a point here, after comparing them.
