    So are you going to share MF, because like Pross, I can't find any reference to these numerals you claim are so widely used., 🤔

    A search for Sharia numbers throws up this gem (I haven't fact checked it). Nice bunch those Republicans if it's genuine!

    no its not genuine - its blatantly not.

    does no one read on this thread? or does the phrase "nice bunch tbose Republucans" give Pross' blinkers away?
    Nah, I was just looking for references to these famous Sharia numerals you keep talking about and it threw up that. I skim read it as I was filling in a few seconds waiting for a call which is why I said I hadn't fact checked it, looking further down I can see it's a self-claimed satirical site.

    However the person named is a far right fruit loop with a track record of shxt-stirring.

    So the 'satirical' site's article may be only slightly further down the nutcase hallway than the tw@t is in reality.

    only if you believe Spitting image is closely related to the truth. American politics has people with strong leanings on both sides and alsorts of colorful characters. My favourite was Sarah Palin.

    Matt do you just mean Arabic numbers as they are commonly written in the Middle East, i.e. row 2

    Very good.

    Some discussion that the joint letter from all the former defence heads suggests there was more of a coup aspect than perhaps we're taking for granted.

    I was about to write a dismissive response but thought it would be more constructive to get you to clarify what you mean by a coup, because that rabble could not impose Trump as a leader the only people who could do that would be the military and if that is the suggestion then they really do have problems.

    FWIW - I think that is bollox

    he has already answered this they are

    numerals used in Sharia beliefs. V common practice in Sharia based legislation, wills, financing, etc. Really common in private wealth management and interjurisdictional estate planning over the last 20 years.

    they are not

    numerals written in Arabic (Eastern Arabic numerals), as opposed to what we call Arabic numerals, which are really from India (via North Africa)? Don't think they are specifically related to Sharia beyond the use of Arabic script.


  • Trump let them in, essentially, but look at them.

    They’re not organised..

    Easy to mock Rick, but at least he's prepared to take a stand




    that just needs to be tightened up as I read it as being easy to mock Rick

    how about

    Rick, it is easy to mock but at least he is prepared to take a stand

    nope but I would not expect to as I am not a muslim, a daft racist or gone somewhere I might need that info

    We were all taught basic Sharia terminology and numeracy for Herrick, Telick, Toral.

    I am not familiar enough with MattFalle to know if he is just backing up David37 to piss off Rick or whether he may reappear with some links to support his position

    Even after the incident at the Capitol, a good chunk of the GOP were still trying to object to the certification (probably the wrong term) of the electoral college votes. Even now Trump's supporters are convinced that his apparent concession is a fake and there will be some last minute event that returns him to power. They obviously didn't have a plan but I think they are not going to just shrug and leave it at that.

    P - when I have a bit of time I'll pm the necessary across to you - I'm not going to just post it up here and spoon feed Richard knowledge like we have all done on every thread for years just so he can go "urgh. I bet he wants everyone to know he gets free clothes and is incredibly handsome and, well, basically a hero"

    Mathematics was never a strong point of mine. Arithmetic with the 1, 2....9, 0 system I'm fine with. Having googled about the lack of zero in the Tamil system, eh nope brain frazzle.

    Anyone have a rudimentary explanation of how the Tamil system works?
