Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

I just posted the pattern in my previous comment. Reconcile.
You're being intellectually dishonest with this debate my Fren. England might say one thing but it really is pressure from the Jewish lobby.
I would take offense, but I have noticed that once you give yourself to JDS, it makes it hard to think logically.
Facts:
You claimed the official reason was anti-Israel views and I proved you wrong.
Instead of accepting your mistake you changed the tune and tried to offer the that the pattern is anti-Israel
I pointed out that the pattern shows exactly the opposite.
When you say I am intellectually dishonest in the face of these objective facts, what you really mean is "I don't like facts that cannot be reconciled with my belief system"
I wont hold it against you because after having experienced the same from the other side of this debate as well as from those who have TDS, I have realised its not personal. Its simply the inability to handle facts vs belief system.
There is enough of a pattern to easily argue that my observations have more merit. What is more dangerous, is trying to shut down such an important issue. People are being denied travel because they are openly and honest about their observations..
No they aren't, and I proved it by providing counterpoints.
