Charlottesville, Virginia. It ended with a loss of life. But a good old fist fight wouldn’t be bad to watch ;)

Oh yeah. The one that ended up with statue removal?

No, a white supremist drove through a crowd protesting a white supremacy rally and killed some people.

I agree that antifa is violent and provacotive, but I think they are, at least in my nation, a necessary reaction to a violent right.

Too bad Antifa doesn't know the difference between violent far-right & just people on the right side lol
They need start being more Anti-Facist instead of downgrading to bunch of Losers.....

Crisis? I must have missed that :d The reaction to that here was mostly "huh, not that funny (because this specific comedian just isn't very funny), but it's always fun when people take parodies way too serious", and that's it :p 

 

Well, let me take a listen, I haven't listened this before. Not that much interesting, mostly stuff like "We are Israel, we are super sweet", "Is your country surrounded by rock throwers? Just build walls that give even Trump wet dreams" and in the part where the real 'song' goes like "I'm not your toy, you stupid boy" (or something) she sings "kijk eens hoe mooi, ik bommen gooi" = "look how beautiful, I'm throwing my bombs". "No no, I don't think so, not a Palestinian will enter. This party has been going on for 70 years. This is my party, I should shine here."

 

Something like that. Like I said, it's just a parody/bit of satire. I am not particularly entertained by this specific thing, but don't care much about it neither. It's a parody, get over it. Not like any sensible person here would care if someone would make a comparable parody of the Netherlands, because....it's a parody.

    • But it seems to us that Norway wasn't as strong in Lillehammer 1994 as it was later? And not just in women's events. Generally, until 2000, Norway was much weaker in women's biathlon and women`s cross-country skiing. I remember in the 1990s, Italy's biggest rivals, Belmondo and di Centa, were Russia, when Norway somewhere further back and only in the classic style. Bente Martinsen- Skari, this is their first really strong girl in cross country, just about 2000, just like Liv Grete Skielbreid- Pioree in women`s biathlon at similar times.

    • This suggestion  @Dnl  made some months ago has also been implemented.   In each club, I have added a "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" record which takes the content from the Qualification by Nation tracker of that NOC.   People who see it can not edit the content, but it will be automatically updated once @Matej will update the record, and if you notice any mistake feel free to report it to Matej or in the record itself.   Club's admins can now edit the name of the section into their own language or change the spelling, I have used "Milano Cortina 2026 Qualification Tracker" for all the clubs. To do so, go inside the section, then click on "Manage Club"-"Edit this database Record" and change the name of the section:     By the way, if you are not a club's admin but you would like to edit things inside the club just let me know and I will give you the rights to do so. There can be more "admins" inside the club with the rights to edit and organize the sections, and that's not a role that require time or commitment.   Let's try to make all the clubs active during MiCo and when the LA28 qualifications will start!
