Got all the fixings for that orzo dish, Steve. I am going to have a go at it soon but at the moment unwinding with a glass of the Nero D'Alola and it is indeed everything you say. Also bought a Fiano, made in Sicily as well, as I like match mt reds and whites by country (I know, blame my Catholic upbringing...) If the red don't go with the food, I'll move over. So, this thread is good for something at least:-)

Been out all afternoon, first in Haworth assisting with the daughters plumbing and then to Skipton for a lovely afternoons browsing. Bought a pair of shorts in the sale in Mountain Warehouse, then saw another pair very similar for a 1/4 of the price in a charity shop. So I bought them too. I guess I have not turned completely Yorkshire yet! Noticed when I got back that the snake's head fritillaries were out. Funny thing is, no one remembers planting them but this is definitely the second or third year we have had them. Beautiful but sadly short lived. Unlike this thread.

"Pollack " - a new bit of imbecility
More nitpicking - they facilitated the massacre, it wouldn't have taken place had they not provided weapons, transport illumination and opportunity
Was the getaway driver a part of the bank robbery - of course he was
Your wriggling self inflicted ignorance is an indication that you have not read a single thin put up about this massacre.
"Where had they flown in from, their holidays?"
That's where they were based - even the Kahan report doesn't deny those facts
"Draper reportedly continued that his "own officers (not further identified) had seen about two hundred Phalange soldiers and ten trucks at Beirut airport. Draper then is said to have remarked to Kashdan that "using Phalangists in West Beirut could have horrible results."

Steve,
The slavery laws are new.
The first ever convictions were four Travellers in July 2012.
https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2012/jul/11/four-face-jail-slavery-law-convictions

Five Travellers were convicted in December 2012 for keeping a small private workforce and paying them as little as £5 a day for their work.
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/police-rescue-three-male-slaves-from-traveller-sites-8991784.html
The same link refers to two Travellers arrested in December 2013 on slavery charges.

In 2016 a Traveller family was jailed for total of 27 years after a court heard two men were used like 'slaves'
http://www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/travellers-descend-cardiff-crown-court-11405928

I may have missed some. The only non Traveller conviction I can remember is some Maoist cult leader. How many can you think of Steve?

Unless you can come up with some others there is clearly a massive over-representation of Travellers convicted of slavery, as I said.

You refuse to even though it has gained acceptance.

I have not. You are just blustering and lying trying to cover your previous lies.

I've presented fcts (Sabra/Shatila)

You have not.
The Iaraelis facilitated the massacre of up to 3,500 unarmed civilians at the refugees in Sabra Shatila in September, 1982
Without their collusion, the killings could not have happened
They collected the killers from the airpor, armed them, tranported them to the camp, allowed access onto the site, provided illumination so the killing could go on uninterrupted, turned back the refugees attempting to escape, provided equipment to bury the bodies, provided the killers with a meas of escape and eventually built a stadium over the site where most of the bodies were buried so the actual numbers would never be known
These are verified facts

They are not.
Israelis did not "facilitate" any massacre.
There was no proven collusion.
You do not need illumination for an armed militia to massacre civilians in a refugee camp.
No bodies were buried in the camp using Israeli equipment.
No bodies went under the stadium.

So, Keith, you've come up with ten convictions over a protracted period and are basing a conclusion about the evils of travellers on just that. That makes you a bigot. You have utterly failed to answer the questions I asked you. You have just proved to us that you harbour anti-traveller prejudice. Well done. The thing is, you thought you'd get away with it. Just like you thought you'd get away with saying that both both Taylor and Clarke were fraudulent. There's no end to your duplicity, is there, Keith? Of course, if you answer the questions properly that I asked you instead of giving us almost nothing except for making evasive links to newspaper reports, I'll eat my words.

Hey Dave, red OR white goes with almost everything, though a red with a roast is what I prefer personally. I'm chuffed that you liked that dish. So simple! When we had it last night I think we were still polishing off a glass of white before moving on to the red.

If you like pasta, here's a slightly non-traditional one that we had tonight that we've had loads of times before. It's a take on one that's on page 99 of Nigel Slater's Real Fast Food. Very simple, though you have to be OK with garlic, tuna and capers.

Drain a tin or jar of the best tuna in olive oil (nothing else will do). We use those jars from Waitrose, though Morrisons do a very nice tin of albocore tuna in oil for £2.29. In oil, mind! Albocore is a fancy name for yellowfin tuna.

Put tuna in a bowl and add the following:

A good chopping of fresh parsley

At least one clove of finely-sliced garlic

A tablespoon of rinsed capers. Only the little ones.

Salt and pepper

Six dessert spoons of full-fat crème fraîche

Mix roughly but try not to break the tuna up too much.

You need 250g short pasta. Whatever you like, but we use gigli pasta, made in Gragnano, the true home of pasta, sold by Tesco. You won't be sorry. Boil the pasta in salted water until al dente. Drain the pasta BUT KEEP A MUGFUL OF PASTA WATER. Crucial.

Throw the pasta back in the pan, add the tuna mix and stir it in. You will definitely need to add some pasta water to loosen the mix. When you're happy with that, put into two warmed bowls and add liberal smounts of freshly-grated parmesan.

This is a superb dish! So easy! It differs from Nigel's version in that I use crème fraîche instead of double cream. Tried it both ways and we prefer the crème fraîche. Also, he doesn't mention using some pasta water to loosen the mix. You definitely need to do this.

I have reached no such "conclusion about the evils of travellers."
Only a microscopic minority have been involved, but those ten convictions since the laws were introduced in 2010 represent a massive over-representation. Stating such facts does not justify your lying rant against me, "That makes you a bigot. You have utterly failed to answer the questions I asked you.

How and when was is this rare and unique culture discovered? Is, if indeed there is such a thing as, Wiltshire culture in what way does it differ from Somerset or Dorset culture (If they exist). Travellers have a unique culture though don't they Jim, and they have their own unique customs and codes of behaviour, one of which would appear to require that they remain silent while their "Traveller" neighbours and relations serially abuse, mercilessly exploit, imprison and enslave 22 vulnerable members of society. Surprised they don't have songs about it Jim, or perhaps a couple of lively jigs to keep their workforce on the hop as the build peoples drives in any weather for absolutely S.F.A. in the way of wages.

By the way has it been verified that a mass grave was found underneath the Camille Chamoun Stadium in Beirut? That is what you seem to be saying. The only problem I have with that is that I have not read any reports of such a mass grave having ever been discovered. Perhaps you could give us a link.

10 things you didn't know about slavery in the UK

The UK Government estimates there are up to 13,000 people in slavery in Britain today
Only 1% of enslaved people in the UK have the chance of seeing their exploiter brought to justice
In 2015, over 3,000 people, including nearly 1,000 children, were referred to British authorities as potential victims of slavery
But nearly 40% of them were still awaiting a decision about their victim status at the end of the year
From those who have received a final decision, only less than half were supported as victims
Victims of slavery are four times less likely to be acknowledged as victims if they are non-European
Up to 34% of victims of slavery are estimated to be re-trafficked
Children are often deliberately targeted for their vulnerability
One in four victims of slavery in the UK is a child
2016 saw the first conviction and sentencing of a British businessman for human trafficking

You are smearing the whole travelling community with your insinuation that there is massive slavery issue among travellers on the basis of two rogue families.

Since the new slavery laws of 2010 came in to force, Travellers have been massively over-represented in the convictions.

Indy, "The arrests (Bristol Dec 2013) follow a number of cases involving the forced labour of the vulnerable at traveller camps that have gone to court over the past two years, using new legislation designed to make it easier to prosecute modern-day slave-keepers.
In the first case of its kind, four people were jailed last year after a raid at Bedfordshire site in 2011 revealed the existence of 23 dirty and emaciated men who were forced to work under fear of extreme violence.
A powerful traveller family made money out of the victims who were addicts they picked up from the streets and soup kitchens and forced to work for little money.
In a separate case, five members of an Irish traveller family were found guilty in December last year of keeping their own private workforce in Gloucestershire, Leicestershire and Nottinghamshire and paying them as little as £5 a day for their work.

Wales Online June 2016, "A (Traveller)family was jailed for total of 27 years after a court heard two men were used like slaves"

I have found only one non-Traveller case, which was of a Maoist cult leader.
Travellers are a tiny proportion of the population, so they are massively over-represented, as I correctly stated.

I would imagine that very few "travellers" now actually travel and very few of them are "Born on the road".

1: The Stadium in 1982 was in ruins
2: After extensive ground works and a total reconstruction carried out by British and Lebanese construction engineers no bodies have been found

So please answer what would appear to most reasonable, intelligent and logical people - " has it been verified that a mass grave was found underneath the Camille Chamoun Stadium in Beirut?

The answer of course is NO IT HAS NOT BEEN VERIFIED - NO HUMAN REMAINS HAVE EVER BEEN FOUND AT THE SITE OF THE CAMILLE CHAMOUN SPORTS STADIUM - kinda pisses all over your parade Jim when you still maintain that it is a fact - but there again you wouldn't recognise a fact if it jumped up and bit you.

You imagine wrong
The majority were born on the road, and those that are able choose to Travel - not easy with people like you and Keith around
Those that have settled have been forced 1: The Stadium in 1982 was in ruins"
The Stadium was used as a holding centre for the victims throughout the massacre - every account states that fact
"The smashed Camille Chamoun Sports Stadium was a natural "holding centre" for prisoners. Only two miles from Beirut airport, it had been an ammunition dump for Yasser Arafat's PLO and repeatedly bombed by Israeli jets during the 1982 siege of Beirut so that its giant, smashed exterior looked like a nightmare denture. The Palestinians had earlier mined its cavernous interior, but its vast, underground storage space and athletics changing-rooms remained intact."
"It was a familiar landmark to all of us who lived in Beirut. At mid-morning on 18 September 1982 - around the time Sana Sersawi says she was brought to the stadium - I saw hundreds of Palestinian and Lebanese prisoners, perhaps well over 1,000 in all, sitting in its gloomy, cavernous interior, squatting in the dust, watched over by Israeli soldiers and plainclothes Shin Beth agents and a group of men who I suspected, correctly, were Lebanese collaborators. The men sat in silence, obviously in fear."
Long after the war, the ruins of the Cité Sportive were torn down and a brand new marble stadium was built in its place, partly by the British. Pavarotti has sung there. But the testimony of what may lie beneath its foundations - and its frightful implications - will give Ariel Sharon further reason to fear an indictment.
Robert Fisk

"Even before the slaughter inside the camps had ended, Shahira Abu Rudeina says she was taken to the Cité Sportif where, in one of the underground "holding centres", she saw a retarded man, watched by Israeli soldiers, burying bodies in a pit. Her evidence might be rejected were it not for the fact that she also expressed her gratitude for an Israeli soldier – inside the Chatila camp, against all the evidence given by the Israelis – who prevented the murder of her daughters by the Phalange."

Other bodies were found on the Airport Road. But the majority were never recovered. American diplomats told the NY Times that they were feared massacred in southern Lebanon. (It is possible that some lie under the new stadium built on the ruins of Camille Chamoun Sports Stadium. And, according to the UK's Independent newspaper, some dozens are also buried near the Lebanese town of Jounieh [5])

At the Sports Centre, I saw the Israeli military, as well as tanks, bulldozers and artillery, all Israeli. We also saw groups of Phalangists with the Israelis. The Sports Centre was packed with women and children. We stayed there until sunset. An Israeli came then and he said, "Everyone go to the Cola region, whoever comes back to the camp will die." We left, as they fired shots in our direction".

The difference between the anti folk in the UK and the US appears to be profound. That is because the slaughter of millions of Jews happened in your backyard. Americans feel more insulated.

The men are taken to the nearby Camille Chamoun Sports Stadium for interrogation by the Israelis, who warn them that they must "reveal terrorist hideouts" because, "If you do not tell us the truth, you know that the Phalangists and Sa'ad Haddad's men are here!". Twenty-eight dead prisoners are subsequently found in the sports stadium, their hands tied behind their backs."

Jim, your final quoted section seems to come from Facebook.
Any idea who wrote it?

The main section comes from an Indy article by Fisk.
It concerned testimony given to a Belgian Court considering whether there was evidence to indict Sharon.
The Court decided there was not.

In all your huge post there is just one person who claims to have seen bodies being buried. Why should we believe her?
If her story was true there would have been some credible witnesses.

Remember that these people lie against Israel all the time.
Remember those nurses on the Marmara who were eye witnesses to Israelis dumping bodies overboard.
They lied. Everyone was accounted for.

Remember the eye witness at Jenin who saw massacre victim's bodies loaded onto a truck and driven off.
He lied.
Again everyone was accounted for.

Try to be less gullible Jim.

Steve,
You simply can't argue for any sort of conclusion about anything from such a tiny statistical sample

If four of the five cases involve travellers, then they are over-represented. That is a simple fact. You do not need a statistician to work it out.

On 24 September 2003, Belgium's Supreme Court dismissed the war crimes case against Ariel Sharon, since none of the plaintiffs had Belgian nationality at the start of the case

Report by Robert L Friedman in NEW YORK TIMES

"The scene was made all the more frightening, the doctors said, by the illumination flares that were being fired by Israeli troops over the camps and dropped by Israeli aircraft. A Sky Aglow With Flares"
"The throng, showing a white flag, moved from the school up Rue Mohammed Ali Beyhum to Corniche Mazraa. As they approached the Israeli checkpoint on the main boulevard, kitty-corner to the Barbir Hospital, they were stopped by an Israeli soldier. The soldier, by all accounts, was clearly surprised and probably frightened to see all of these people coming at him.
The soldier shouted in Arabic to the crowd to stay back, then went into crouch position at the corner of a building and aimed his gun at the people, who immediately started shrieking and turned around. Crowd Chooses a Spokesman
The soldier, members of the crowd recalled, then told them to send one person forward to explain what they wanted. A man was chosen and sent to speak to the Israeli.
According to the people, the spokesman told the soldier that Haddad militiamen were slaughtering civilians in the camps and that they were trying to escape.
The Israeli soldier told the spokesman that there was nothing he could do, and added that if they remained in the area, he would open fire.
People began protesting; women started weeping. The Israeli soldier then reportedly fired two volleys into the air to scatter the crowd. At that point, witnesses say, an Israeli tank rolled from Corniche Mazraa onto Rue Mohammed Ali Beyhum and chased the people a few hundred feet back toward the camps. A Witness Corroborates Account"

"Fortunately for the physician, by about 5 P.M. Friday, an International Red Cross convoy made it to the hospital and evacuated everyone left there. The doctor said that at about 5:30 P.M., as he was leaving the facility for safety, he saw at the southern end of Shatila what he estimated to be 80 to 90 bodies. They had been mixed together with sand and were being pushed by bulldozers."

Israeli co-operation with Falangists
"Whatever the Israelis knew about the massacre by Saturday morning, and however disturbed they were by the events, some of the Palestinians say the Israeli soldiers threatened to turn them over to the Phalangists if they did not cooperate. 'Don't Worry About Anything'
Saleh H., 55, quotes an Israeli soldier as telling him at the stadium: ''You are now under the protection of the Israeli defense forces. Don't worry about anything, just be honest with us. If we find out you are not honest . . . ''
He said the soldier added, ''the Phalangists are here.'' Mr. Saleh said the Israeli soldier then motioned toward the area from where the Phalangists had brought them to the stadium. Finally Ahmed, 27 years old, a teacher at the school of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Sabra camp, was asked by an Israeli if he knew any guerrillas."

"A few miles away, around 9 A.M., the first outsiders were entering Shatila and discovering the bodies. The Israeli officer in charge of the stadium interrogations, Col. Naftali Bahiry, was asked if there was any truth to reports that Phalangists were in the area of the camps.
''We asked the Phalangists to leave,'' said the colonel. ''We don't need anyone to do the job for us.''

Jim, From your link,

At Gaza Hospital, on the other end of the camp, matters were also beginning to unravel Friday morning. Just after dawn a nurse on the eighth floor was shot and killed by a sniper, according to witnesses.

More witnesses that lied. No nurse or anyone else was hurt in the Gaza hospital, never mind killed!

This is just more uncorroborated and blatantly false propaganda.

"More witnesses that lied."
Shite Keith
The only one lying here is you
You are not even telling the truth when you say you are putting Israel's case - you are not
You are making it up as you go along.
Even the Israelis are not claiming what you are saying - you don't reference to anything - you are making excuses as you need to
You drag in Jenin as a smokescreen - every combatant who has ever fought a war exaggerates the figures - Israel invariable comes up with the lowest civilian casualty figures - that is fully accepted propaganda
Every writer puts the dead of Sabra Shatila at well over a thousand - an eye witness on site did a rough count came up with 3,500 "probably more, as the number that had been shipped out or buried by the Israelis and Falangists was unknown."
Eyewitness Jewish nurse, who was there and who has since that time researched the massacre in detail and spoken to the survivors, accepts the possibility of 3,500
This is her description of the massacre
One of Israel's most infamous crimes occurred 33 years ago this week.
In September 1982, the Israeli army surrounded the Sabra neighborhood and adjacent Shatila refugee camp in southern Beirut.Israel gave its allies in a right-wing Christian militia known as the Phalange free rein to massacre a large number of Palestinian and Lebanese civilians living in the area. Israeli troops even shot flares into the night sky to help the Phalangists find their targets.
Is she lying - why should a Jewish Nurse who was devoted to The State of Israel lie - why shold she spend the rest of her life dedicated to exposing Israel's murderous role in the massacre?
Remind me again how many were exaggerated at Jenin??
Israeli lying figures puts them by far ahead in the lying stakes
You accuse eye-witnesses, on the spot immediately after after the massacre om making up seeing bodies being buried in the stadium - you offer no proof - you knee-jerk denials
You are given a statement that Israeli officers colluded with the Falangists - you dismiss it an an anonymous blog
You are given the same information written by a Jewish writer in The New your Times - you pull up some shite about snipers that is not under discussion and ignore the N.Y. Times article
You are full of wind and pee Keith.
Not only are you the most extreme racist on this site - Muslims, Irish, Travellers.... but you are now a serial liar who lies publicly.
Is the New York Times writer lying when he describes the massacre and the collusion - if so why?
Perhaps he is one of your "self loathing Jews"
If you have any proof that the eye-wtnesses or thase who researched the massacres were lying - present the proof and stop making things up or avoiding the facts
You have made up lies about this massacre from day one
Like with the Muslim implants, your anti-Irish racism and now your obscene assault on the Traveller community - this will what you are judged as being for as long as you contribute to this forum - a racist, an atrocity denier and a liar

What Jom offers as "evidence"
No - what Robert Fisk (or maybe our self-imposed dyslexicly childish and unimaginative friend thinks that should be "Fosk") thinks, based on his findings.
Fisk researched the massacre, interviewed the survivors and the rescuers and came up with his conclusions based on that
The Israeli bulldozers made sure we'll never know how many are buried where.
Is that the best you can come up with?
You obviouly haven't the beginnings of an idea of this massacre - you probably foined in the fray to help your floundering friend
You attempted to call into doubt the use of the stadium
"1: The Stadium in 1982 was in ruins"
You had to ask why the Falangists had to be transported from the airport
"Tell me Jim why would those militiamen and Lebanese troops need transporting from the airport? Where had they flown in from, their holidays?"
This has been covered a dozen times with documented evidence and you hadn't a ******* clue of the facts of the matter!!
That's how much you know, that's how much you've researched and that's how much you've been paying attention to this argument.
I've presented masses and masses of evidence sine I first introduced this massacre into the equation - YOU HAVE PRESENTED NOTHING - NONE - - ZILCH - NOT ONE SINGLE SHRED OF DOCUMENTED AND VERFIED EVIDENCE.
YOU HAVE FERRETED AND SNIDED AWAY TRYING TO DISMISS,. DISCREDIT AND DESTROY THE FACTS OF THIS MASSACRE BY PRODUCING SWEET FUCK ALL OTHER THAN YOUR OWN BIGOTED, LYING, AGENDA DRIVEN DENIALS - YOU CONTINUE TO ATTEMPT, IN YOUR OWN DISTINCTLY PATHETIC WAY, TO DO SO BY TALKING DOWN TO PEOPLE FROM YOUR MENTAL HOLE IN THE GROUND, THINKING THIS WITH FILL IN THE GAPS IN YOUR IGNORANCE, INTELLIGENCE AND HUMANITY
This is the mass murder of up to three thousand five hundred human beings we are talking about, men women and children, all without any way to defend themselves, the men shot out of hand, the children taken by the feet and dashed against walls, the women raped then slaughtered by having their throats cut - those pregnant disemboweled and the unborn children ripped from their wombs and having what life they possessed stamped into the ground.
All you pair come up with is sneery and insulting denials of any evidence that implicates the regime that continues its slaughter of anybody who gets in the way of its ethnic cleansing programme.
Hate to point it out, but that sort of defence represents human behaviour at its most obscenely inhuman
Wonder how you are on former Yugoslavia or Rwanda or the Jewish holocaust!!
It all seems like a game to you pair of sickos

Jim,
"More witnesses that lied."
Shite Keith

Not shite but facts as related by the very nurse you just quoted.
No-one in a hospital was shot. Those "witnesses" lied.

Is she lying - why should a Jewish Nurse who was devoted to The State of Israel lie

She is no supporter of Israel, but I do not say she lies.
Her account changed over the 33 years.
"Israel gave its allies in a right-wing Christian militia known as the Phalange free rein to massacre a large number of Palestinian and Lebanese civilians living in the area. "

She is repeating propaganda. Inside the hospital how would she know what was arranged between IDF and the militia?
She made no such ludicrous claim in her journal of those days.

"Israeli troops even shot flares into the night sky to help the Phalangists find their targets."

That is true. Legitimate targets.

Remind me again how many were exaggerated at Jenin??

Truck loads of bodies were claimed but only about 3 people died, and no bodies at all were removed. Every person in the camp was accounted for.

You accuse eye-witnesses, on the spot immediately after after the massacre om making up seeing bodies being buried in the stadium - you offer no proof - you knee-jerk denials

I showed you that so called eye witnesses do lie against Israel, and the story of the stadium does not stand up to scrutiny.

You are given a statement that Israeli officers colluded with the Falangists - you dismiss it an an anonymous blog

No. I asked who the writer was and what their source was.
Can you tell us?

You are given the same information written by a Jewish writer in The New your Times

Keith - whoever lied, Israeli or survivor - it doesn't alter the main documented facts one single iota
It is fairly disgusting to deny witness statements in favour of a regime that lies consistenly about everything and hides behind over one hundred U.S vetoes to protect it from fcinf war crimes, but that's what you do
Nit picking on incidentals is how you and your brain-dead friend avoid accepting the inevitable
Piss of with your diversions - they really make no difference to what happened.
So Helen Shapiro is "repeating propaganda" that was being spouted by traumatised and wounded patients she was treating in the hospital - you are as sick as her patients to suggest such a thing
Survivors of a massacre spouting propaganda - you have a sick view of people you don't like.
Based on your previous accusations - are you dismissing the word of a Jewish nurse because you are an antisemite?
You may stick that sick defence up your atrocity denying hole as far as it will go.
Your whole defence of this ethnic cleansind regime is that it must be true because they said so and everybody else, eye witnesses (Jews included) survivor, rescue teams, human rights groups, researchers, reporters...., are all liar if they condemn Israel in any way, shape or form.
You have "showed" nothing - you have denied everything that doesn't fit your defence of these bastards
You are as sick as your friend in the games you play.
At t thought, when 'Grand Theft Auto' runs its course, perhaps there's room on the market for a new one 'Grand Rape, Disemboweling and Mass Murder'
That is the level you are basing your responses
Like Teribus, you have never produced anything and you have defended this atrocity with nothing but wheedling, inhuman denials.
You are both examples of humanity in its lowest form
SICKOS
"Truck loads of bodies were claimed but only about 3 people died"
The finally agreed figure from Jenin was 53 Palestinian dead, most of whom were civilians - and you come up with 3 - which illustrates my point perfectly.
Everybody lies about combat figures - it takes a certain type of sickness of mind to lie to defend massacres decades after the event
