Kohl Rabi bulbs forming; Two lots of garlic lifted; Melon cucumbers growing well; Cucumbers starting to show; Cheers. -
I assumed it was the same as Jewish Zionism, the right of return of Jews to the Jewish homeland ? Cheers.

In the last few years the battle for hegemony over the Middle East has been between Iran and Saudi Arabia. The war in Yemen is a proxy war with Iran backing the insurgent Houthi and Saudi backing the Yemen Government. Irans proxies in the Middle East , Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthi, etc are hated by “moderate “ Arab nations like Jordan, Saudi, U.A.E., these nations who once backed the destruction of Isreal are now shooting down Iranian missiles heading for Isreal ! Its a very complex situation, always had been, and I certainly don’t have the answers, but making sure Iran doesn’t have

C’mon mate ! In the Six Day War alone, Israel defeated the combined militaries of Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq. Every war they’ve fought they’ve won ! You’ll say they were backed by America, but the Arabs were backed by just about every Arab nation and supplied by the Russians. Isreal can’t lose a war, it would be the end of them. Iran’s stated aim is the complete destruction of Isreal. As I’ve said before, I’m an “Arabist”, ( not, I hasten to add, an Islamist !), but I think Isreal has the right to exist, a view most Arab nations are now adopting. Cheers.

Yes, but are Israel funding the terrorist groups I mentioned , to bomb Israel , or is it Iran funding them ? Allegiance’s and Allies change over time. Remember when Russia and China were our allies, and Germany and Japan were the enemies. Now the roles are reversed, Cheers.

So the Jews are funding Hamas, Hezbollah and the Houthi to bomb Israel ……? Cheers.

They have huge oil reserves. Cheets.

Surely it’s Iran who is funding Hamas, Hezbollah, the Houthi, ISIS, etc ? Cheers.

Consider the alternative; Saddam and Ghaddaffi realising the dream of the “Great Islamic Caliphate”, running from North Africa through the Middle East all the way to Indonesia. Controlling the majority of the worlds oil and gas reserves, controlling the Suez Canal, the Straits of Hormuz and the trade routes to the far east , being able to hold the industrialised West to ransom. That was never going to be allowed. Isreal is just another pawn in the ongoing “Great Game”, just as Afghanistan was since the 1800’s. The pieces move around the board, but the game remains the

In 1991 Israel conducted “Operation Solomon “ and rescued over 14,000 Ethiopian Jews , including over 1,000 on one flight, from persecution. Cheers.

Courgettes are producing well, Green beans were only repotted a few days ago but are climbing and showing young beans already; Cheers.

Although I’ve never used, or wanted to use gps tracking on my dogs, of course there’s far more to lurcher work than point and slip coursing ! I fully understand the use of gps and thermal imagery, but as someone who works mainly without permission, that’s a lot to invest in if it gets confiscated ! If I worked permission, I would probably think about gps. Cheers.
-
I didn’t do anything to my courgettes except feed them once a week with tomato food and they are producing loads ! My cucumbers are just starting to flower so I’ll wait and see . Cheers.

I used my free tickets and stayed at my daughters in Dubai then flew on to Saudi and stayed at my sons, so it basically cost me very little. My free airline tickets and friends and family around the world have allowed me to go to places I might not otherwise could have done. Got a trip to Ireland planned that I’m very much looking forward to, and going to Saudi where one of the in-laws is planning fishing and hunting trips. My missus had a trip to Finland and I’m very jealous, ice fishing, ptarmigan shooting , dog and reindeer sledding, so I’m hoping to fit that trip in before i

Hamed was a friend of my daughter when she lived in Dubai and he phoned me and invited me to see his kennels in Abu Dhabi and his falconry mews in Dubai so I went out for a month. Cheers.

No quarantine from Saudi now. mC should just book a cheap package holiday to Dubai, I’d put him in touch with Hamed Ghunaim, he’d sort him a decent bitch. Cheers.

Bangers, so all you want is a “ point and slip” dog ? I consider myself a “dog worker” , not a “ dog trainer”, but I start a pup/ young dog on a 30 yard long leash, it trains them not to range too far, and to return when you call them. 30’ long leash and a rabbit skin training dummy. Easy to teach your dog recall, retrieving and not to range too far ; You will cover far more ground with a dog that quarters a field and ranges about 30 yards around you, and find more game than just “point and slip”. Each to their own i suppose but it’s daft to denigrate a decently trai
