This has been my weekly reminder that there are people who use Bing. Harrowing.

Isn't it easier to just jump the turnstiles?

This was the entire point. If you loan out money that immediately gets paid to construction firms you own, you're effectively just charging people (with interest) to be neocolonialized.

Thanks for correcting that, my browser rejects most redirects so I didn't know there was an issue.

It's very difficult to characterize this as an isolated incident of anti-semitism by the BBC considering it's far from their first incident, and considering further that the BBC has spend 20 years and well over £300,000 keeping the 20,000 word Balen Report into their perceived anti-Israel bias buried.

How can we be expected to believe that there is no anti-semitism at play when the BBC claim that they refuse to call Hamas a terrorist organization because 'Terrorism is a loaded word, which people use about an outfit they disapprove of morally. It's simply not the BBC's job to tell people who to support and who to condemn [...] We don't take sides. We don't use loaded words like "evil" or "cowardly". We don't talk about "terrorists".' despite the fact they actually do that constantly, and have for decades?

Rajib Karim: The terrorist inside British Airways

Brussels: Epicentre of the terrorist threat in Europe?

Built at a time when IRA terrorist attacks were a constant threat, High Point was built to be bomb-proof

Securing and maintaining reliable funding is the key to moving from fringe radical group to recognised terrorist organisation

Eighteen years after the Brighton bombing, former IRA terrorist, Patrick Magee, has continued to defend his role in the blast

[Lisa] Smith was, however, found not guilty of financing terrorism by sending money to a man for the benefit the terrorist group.

Sudesh Amman: From troubled schoolboy to terrorist

Between 1969 and 2001 over 3,526 people were killed in terrorist violence in the UK. ↑ this one is from BBC Bitesize, educational material the BBC writes for children. I guess editorializing to children doesn't count as taking sides.

The BBC clearly has no problem naming and shaming terrorism when Jews aren't the target. This assertion of "Jewish wealth" isn't only an obvious Elders of Zion appeal, it's the latest in a long, long line of Isolated Incidents of the BBC suddenly altering its established reporting standards for only the situations where they address the one country in the world full of Jewish people.

During these formative years of the Web, web pages could only be static, lacking the capability for dynamic behavior after the page was loaded in the browser.

And it was better. Frankly, http was a mistake, humanity would be healthier and happier if we stopped at gopher.

Crypto will never be a thing. We'll be in a Star Trek style post-economy future where the concept of money is worthless before crypto will ever be a viable alternative to fiat currency, at least for anything aside from buying drugs online from dudes with roman statue avatars who talk like anime villains.

Not a single solid reason given

Well not to you, but that doesn't mean much considering you think spyware is fine as long as it's opt-in (and that being a furry is equivalent in severity to being homophobic, wtf). The fact that you think this article is bad is basically a ringing endorsement.

No you're not, you're just making that up
