No, Romans didn’t make the Sahara. The myth is usually that they salted the earth when they destroyed Carthage but that isn’t true either

I have no idea what you’re trying to say with this one tbh

And what sort of skills are we talking about? It’s not like most of the migrants coming illegally now are doctors and surgeons. That’s a very very tiny portion and I’m willing to bet they are already much more likely to have avenues to come in legally. Highly skilled, university trained people aren’t the ones crowding the migrant boats.

The president of the European Commission proposes to focus on a hitherto little explored dimension, not least because, by definition, an economic migrant falls outside the concept of refugee and is not entitled to reception.

Those things are pretty much tied because economic migrants are abusing the refugee system to come to Europe. But having legal opportunities and being stricter about returning people back if they reach the shores would probably help the situation

Pope Leo said on Sunday that the only solution in the decades-long conflict between Israel and the Palestinian people must include a Palestinian state, reaffirming the Vatican’s position.

Title sounded like he was supporting a single state solution with Palestine as the state, but it’s the same two state solution that Vatican has supported for some time

Assholes, they’re basically extorting people to stop the annoying shit and to get them to fuck off

In addition to some junkie/alkie shenanigans I saw an immigrant started praying on his Muslim mat in front of the train doors. Dude started raving when someone stepped on his mat trying to get out. I remember everyone just looking around confused over the idiocy of it all

People pay to hear that

Someone playing an instrument inside of a train, Jesus that’s obnoxious

Ground beef is delish and versatile

I care when someone claims that they did. It’s important to gets the facts straight imo. They commenter you’re replying to didn’t imply Gates was a good guy or something.
