Where can I report this for drug promotion?

I like to mention it often, but in Germany state run water companies run self-sufficient and even make money to invest in keeping the infrastructure alive. In my city we have a water loss of less than 2% due to well maintained pipes. Thames Water is losing like 25%!

I still can't believe how this company got to grift the British people in broad daylight and is now asking for more to grift and government in charge still wants more of this.

So Israel did the same thing as Iran, an attack that signals strength but isn't really a serious attack, but Iran actually ended the current issue here. I wonder if that's a level of finger too, that Israel couldn't stop without having the last word, but Iran actually could.

Both countries don't really want direct war with each other at this point, and Israel specifically has its hands full with Gaza and Hisbollah right now, its allies urging it to tone down the carnage and they have to snarl at an Iran that isn't even willing to fight against the US wishes. I can only take from this that Netanyahu that war will end and he has to take his hat.

Realistically Iran doesn't want a war right now. I think they're quite okay with not getting a kill. They made their statement without really forcing Israel's hand too much.

Although some warhawks are already masturbating to a fantasy of Israel retaliating.

Yeah, people have to remember that Iran not only announced a response but actually announced when they launched their drones that would take 9 hours to arrive so Israel has some time to prepare. This was show of force, probably for the domestic audience.

The grift is so unreal.

Hamburg Wasser made a profit of almost 100 million Euro in 2022 and since it's owned by the state of Hamburg it didn't shit that profit out to shareholders, but invested it into the infrastructure.

And the Tories are still reluctant to nationalise this vital service that has nothing to do in the "free" market.

Good question. Some say boycott the whole show or just Israel's song, I suppose you can boo if you're on location or be loud in the chat on the official livestream, generally use the buzz on social media. Generally, they will be aware that people will want to register their disgust and will probably prepare themselves for that.

I'd say generally, participate normally in Eurovision discussion and then make noise or boycott when it's Israel's turn. The media that love to report on the event, as it has a reach bigger than the Superbowl, will pick it up when it's enough noise.

Also watch out if some of the artists will say or do something. Iceland is always very itchy and gives no fucks.

At the very least, I think Eurovision next month will get even more awkward than it was already set out to be.

Doch, das auch. Und es hat bisher ja auch gut geklappt, sonst würden sich Leute jetzt nicht so wundern. Mit denen sind wir fast an 200 toten Helfern gelandet, Journalisten und Besucher nicht reingezählt.

Israel war es bisher egal, weil sie immer mit ihren Ausreden durchgekommen sind. Hat man auch hier gemerkt. Erst haben sie was von Hamas IDE gesagt, dann von einem vielleicht Hamas Verdächtigen der vielleicht im Konvoy war (aber halt nicht) und nicht mal jetzt fühlen sie sich als müssten sie sich für irgendwas entschuldigen.

Ich empfehle hierzu das fantastische Interview von Channel 4 wo sie sich von dem Israelischen Sprecher nichts geben lassen und auch zwischendurch den Zinger reinhauen "okay, dann lassen Sie uns mal über die anderne 194 toten Helfer sprechen": https://youtu.be/jcU6008E-DU?t=388
