Trick question I think
Its as transparent as a question could possibly be. It just requires a bit of thought to come up with a viable solution.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) is joined by CEO Duncan Drasdo and Financial Director Andy Green from the Manchester United Supporters Trust for a special episode on all things behind the scenes at Old Trafford including a brief history of MUST and their aims today, views on INEOS and Sir Jim Ratcliffe so far, and the Old Trafford regeneration.

Jews and Arabs have lived in Jerusalem for hundreds of years. Please stop inferring that it was exclusively Arab.
Btw, if Jews had nothing to do with the land, why does the Koran explicitly say the opposite?
Well that's a huge question. For me it's either the one state solution where Jews and arabs can live together which is impossible because Israel will never cease being the jewish state, even more so with Likoud at the helm. The other solution is Israel conceding territories so that WB and Gaza can form a single state ie decolonization.
Koran explicitly says that jews were thrown out from the holy land for their wrongdoings too.
Your homelands do have slavery, you've just become accustomed to it and you don't call it what it is.
But yeah you're right, everything is the wrong word.
Maybe "most things here are fine".
Nope. Worker's have rights here.
Pretty subjective, but how would you rate the UAE's treatment of the following groups:
- Women
- Foreign labourers
- Religious minorities
So when you mentioned 'some balanced history books', did you have the Qur'an in mind?
So a Pakistani ripped him off and his company (not the government) won't give him his passport back. That's shocking.
That's almost as horrific as the elderly women and men that struggle every winter in the UK because they are unable to pay for their bills that the government refuse to help with.
Swings and roundabouts.
Difference here is that Pete won't defend the governments treatment of pensioners whereas you're defending keeping people prisoners.
And the treatment of migrant works over there is definitely worse than pensioners struggling with the winter months.
I'm an atheist. I've had no problems.
My friends and some of the most successful people here are Arab Christians. There are European Churches here. Ba'Hai and Hindu presence.
Foreign labourers get paid. They work hard. Wouldn't like to do their job. But nobody forced them to come here.
As for women, what exactly do you want to know?
Actually no, a slavery has a definition. You can't just say that Bad Things are different forms of slavery.
Born before 1952 and if you apply. You should see the application process.
So far here all you've done is be sarcastic and say "I wouldn't want their job", as if they've got an option "nobody forced them to come here" as if they were aware of what the job would entail. They were mislead into going there. They don't want to be there anymore and want to leave, can they? Nope. Their employer basically owns them and the government shafts them for the piss cheap labor.
It's definitely worse because those guys are suffering every single day and have no way out, whereas pensioners here actually do get a modicum of help, and even have the option of going to weatherspoons for a a bit of warmth of and a nice pint. Migrant workers there don't get a fraction of that kind of rest bite.
Oh man, having to fill a form. The UK has slavery too!
Are you saying being over 62 is not elderly enough?
I don't think it could be much simpler tbh:

To quote Bill Maher - Are there any gay bars in the area ?
Seems pretty easy to apply. You can do it by phone or via post. The questionnaire is only two pages long. So you have to be 62 to apply which seems not too bad since the original comment was about help for the elderly.
That wasn't sarcasm. I really wouldn't want their job.
If you're under the impression that they don't know what working conditions are like before arriving, you're wrong.
Also I'd like to point out that it's not all labourers that are going through these examples, which are really horrible.
I've got a funny story about gay bars, if you care to hear it?
Yes. Plenty actually. You'd be surprised how many homosexuals there are here.
But anyway, Maher is a cnut.
Even if that were true, that destroys your 'no connection' argument.
Sura 5:21 & Sura 17:10 don't mention even palestine. Odd.
Britain is peachy. But those Arab countries. Grr.
Surprising how simple that is compared to the horror stories I've heard about disability benefits and elderly assistance I've heard recently.
Well done to the government. I applaud their good work
Close to a millions slaves is pretty horrible. Even if it's not all of them, it's fecking bad.
The short version is that a new work colleague asked me if I was married and I replied "I'm engaged", but he thought I had said "I'm gay". He then asked me whether there were any gay bars in the area, so I then thought he was gay. So we both were under the impression that the other was gay when neither of us actually were.
True story.
Not at all, only if you believe in God and religion Qu'ran could go a long way to explain some questions.
So it's either a one state solution or a 2 state solution?
Back to square one
Key word here is decolonization, which obviously won't happen as long as Israel's policy is driven by neocons/likoud. Hence the need for resistance.
Oh there are a million slaves in the UAE?
Last stats I saw there were about 250k labourers in Dubai. That leaves Abu Dhabi with roughly the same.
That's 500k. So essentially all of them are slaves if what you're saying is correct. Now that would be a problem. But I don't believe those numbers are accurate.
You're both blatantly gay. Just accept it and marry him already.
I suppose the big question is why he asked about gay bars if he was straight.
Those numbers are from Vice and The Guardian, who tend to be quite good.
Ah. I didn't get those numbers or papers. I'll have to beat the living feck out of my maid for not making sure I had it at my breakfast table.
EDIT: Just found a piece on Google from Guardian that refers to high numbers but in Qatar.
Now that place is bad.
Right so what are these balanced history books you're on about? You know, the ones where you learned about how untrustworthy the Jews have been for 4000 years?
There are a lot of search engines out there.
