What kind of events do they have at the Jewish Olympics then? Dodge the Bacon Sandwich or things like that? Walking on Water, and Parting of the Waters competitions, obviously, . . . open only to qualifying Red Sea pedestrians ! (Acknowledgments to M. Python & Co.)

Wot edit? The second post (mine) says nothing about 'edited by naughtyfox' Bizzare, when I logged on there was a post box with you as the poster but the comment box was empty as if you had posted then deleted the comment, next time I looked your TV comment appeared. Weird innit. Phil

Well, yes, weird. As you can see, there is no 'latest edit' on post 2. As for Jews, I don't have much to say about them, as I still have no idea what they are - a race / a people / religious nutters / world-dominating cult? They do seem to be a hard-working lot who have suffered unfairly many times throughout history, perhaps the cruellest action being to give them their own country slap bang in the middle of nasty neighbours. Why couldn't the USA have given them the state of Kentucky, for instance? Or even Scotland?

It is held every four years and was started in 1932.
It is the third biggest sporting event in the world with 10,000 athletes.

In what way ?Not sure who's on dodgy ground,me or them. π€ I meant that going the way of undertakers for white Christians only would lead us to trouble. I certainly wasnβt suggesting that you were either wrong, nor on dodgy ground. I was also a little drunk and fed up so I hope I didnβt upset you with my post. Ian.

It does miff me a bit that there's an Asian day centre/care home not too far from me,plus an Asian undertakers(not next door to each otherπ).How would it pan out if there were homes & undertakers advertised just for white Christians ?Racism works in more than one way. I'm going to go out on a limb. I think I know the undertakers and is it right in saying they offer anyone a funeral, the day centre I dont know. However afaik any business that refuses to offer their service or goods to any particular race, gender etc etc is guilty of an offence under the equality act. I cant remember how the cake gate scandal ended. It's one reason I help people who get private parking tickets for parking in a disabled bay on private land without a blue badge, if they have a disability as per the act then the land owner cannot discriminate. Works every time.

It says they serve all faiths. This one's in Wembley, London. OFFICES THROUGHOUT THE UK INCLUDING CROYDON AND NORTH LONDON, ILFORD Smethwick, Birmingham, UK 'Christian/Christian only' / 'whites/whites only' funeral services comes up with nothing. Looks like 'Asians' are a bit cheeky flouting the discrimination laws in the UK, eh?

I still think the titles,'Asian Burials/Undertakers'etc are wrong even if they do bury other faiths or creeds.To me,it sounds as if they are discriminating against others-even if they don't !

I agree, even if Jim doesn't. But, has anyone pointed this out to the 'authorities'? 99% percent of people are racist, only 1% admit it.

It seems that it's hardly newsworthy, I've never heard of them and what's wrong with "our" (the rest of the world) Olympics? Small wonder people bitch about them. (Then they complain people don't like them) Phil

Interesting opinion piece: www.haaretz.com/opinion/.premium-boycott-the-maccabiah-games-1.5488047it goes on to comment: "One can understand why the first Maccabiah was held, in 1932. Jewish athletes from the Land of Israel were barred from participating in the Olympics, because they did not have a state. But in 1948, the state was founded, The circumstances changed. In 2017, the Maccabiah has neither nationalist nor athletic justification. (From the sports perspective, the event is particularly meaningless and even pathetic.) Jewish athletes from the Land of Israel take part in the Olympics, as part of the Israeli delegation."

I was thinking this morning - as one does - that 'Asian Undertakers' doing it for other faiths, is a bit like those Chinese takeaways that advertise 'English Meals' on their menu.
