What you are doing is called cherry picking. You pick & choose very specific examples that will suit your narrative. Why don't you compare Kylie with Lana Del Slay or P!nk? They did better than Tension on their second week, and neither of them had as big of a hit as Padam x2. In addition, you keep repeating that Disco was heavily discounted on week 1. Where are the receipts? I'm not disputing that Tension did VERY well on week 1, but expectations were definitely higher because of Padam x2. It didn't help Kylie's streaming in the long term. In previous eras, Kylie achieved better results without scoring a hit.

This comparison isn't very flattering to Tension. Relatively, Tension dropped much harder. Autumn Variations dropped from 30k to 5k whereas Tension dropped from 53k to 5k.

Seriously? This is pure sugarcoating. You are only fooling yourself if you think BMG are "happy" with the fact that Tension is free falling. There will be no special edition for Christmas this year. Nobody does a re-release so quick. The album has just been released.

This isn't about getting a revenge. Israel's purpose is to prevent Hamas from doing it again. People in the south of Israel have been living under Hamas' threat since the IDF left the Gaza strip in 2005. How are the Israeli civilians expected to return to their houses when Hamas still launches hundreds of rockets every day? Would anyone in Britain be willing to live in a city that can be targeted by rockets and terrorists that cross the border in a quest to murder as many innocent people as possible? That is not normal. There's no other way other than stop Hamas from ruling & ruining Gaza, and that's why the Western leaders side with Israel. And if the people of Gaza can't or don't want to stop Hamas, then Israel will do it for them. This sick situation can't continue like this.

Most of the Palestinians that got / get killed are Hamas terrorists. IDF doesn't seek out to kill civilians, unlike Hamas. IDF does everything it can to warn before it makes a strike. Israel's call for everyone in the northern region of Gaza to go to the southern region is a way to spare thousands of lives. But it was called "forced displacement of populations" and "ethnic cleansing". The humanitarian corridor is being impeded by Egypt, which does not want a refugee camp on its border. Egypt has not received 1% of the attacks from the Western mob.

Today is the day! :cheer:

Would you supply food & water to your enemy? I don't think so. What's more, just to remind you, Gaza also has a border with Egypt. It doesn't matter what he is known for. What matters is that he is absolutely right in this case about people expecting Israel's response to be so-called "proportional". If we want to talk about "proportions", then watch this for comparison:

The album is out now. Any reviews?

That's rich coming from you. Didn't you admit you don't know a lot on the subject just a few pages ago? Why are you so worked up? Because I reminded that Britain bombarded Dresden and killed thousands of German civilians? I wonder what Britain would do if 1300 civilians were murdered in a single terror attack. :rolleyes: What Douglas Murray says sums up my thoughts exactly: @1712514804902953245 @1712907577061773322

The fact that you refer to Israel as a thief says a lot. You clearly don't know what you are talking about. Please educate yourself on the matter. Israel has no control on Gaza since 2006.

Israel's response isn't a war crime. It's what every other country would do if 1400 civilians were killed in a terror attack. War crimes are kidnapping, beheading and slaughtering women, kids & elderlies and launching rockets on civilians - what Hamas did & still do.

Oh, please. This is war. Israel gotta do what it has gotta do. When Britain bombarded Dresden, German civilians got killed. When Ukraine fights back Russia, Russian civilians get killed. What do you expect exactly? The Hamas terrorists use civilians in Gaza as human shields. Terrorists hide in schools & hospitals. Israel has asked civilians to leave. They got enough notice.

Unboxing:

The local population of Gaza supports Hamas. They should have thought about that before choosing to launch a brutal attack on Israel.

Excuse me? Israel has EVERY MORAL RIGHT to defend itself. Hamas & Gaza must pay for what they did.

Seriously?! Social media is full of evidence. The following tweets contain. very graphic images. That's why I do not embed them here. Do NOT click if you are sensitive: https://twitter.com/giladerdan1/status/1712145038442893540 https://twitter.com/raz_sauber/status/1712452624035844505

You didn't, but Smint did. Also, I'm sure you know what the meaning of the word "imply" is. :rolleyes:

Really? The production value of LIM is so much better.

Haaretz is an anti Israeli publication, so no surprises there whatsoever. :coffee: LMAO. You make it sound like he has been Israel's PM for 28 consecutive years, which is simply NOT the case. He lost the elections in 1999, and only won again in 2009. Angela Merkel served as chancellor of Germany from 2005 to 2021 and I didn't see anyone implying she was a "dictator". :rolleyes:

Yes. Israel is a democratic country. It is a fact. Is this news to you? If so, educate yourself. In contrast, since Hamas won the elections in Gaza in 2006, there have been NONE since.

Why do you spread lies? He is not a facist and isn't a dictator. He is the chosen Prime Minister of Israel, which is the ONLY democratic state in the Middle East. Is Biden a facist dictator, too? :rolleyes: Exactly.

'Windows' is absolutely fantastic. Gary sounds divine. IMO, it is their best single since 'Patience'. I'm glad they've ditched the electronic sound.

Really?! That's not very professional. Even if she really believes in it, she shouldn't say / retweet that. Artists shouldn't blow their own trumpet.

Oh... I didn't know Madonna was spreading "misinformation". :rolleyes:
