Not as cozy as we are to the Germans. Or Japanese. Or British. |

9/11 was the actions of individuals, not a government. |

How certain of that are you, given SA, like the USA today, was / is an autocracy? I can understand "forgive and forget, move on" but for that to work a nation must first be deemed culpable, and the PR done by the republicans to prevent this was inexcusable and oh, so related to Big Oil. |

If you have information to the contrary, Todd Blanche would like to hear from you. |

| OnceDear Member since: Nov 21, 2017 Threads: 16 Posts: 1892 | You guys seem to be being shielded from the bad news that US bases in the Middle East are getting successfully pounded by Iran. Covered by CBS and BBS, but I bet it's not on Fox or even CNN https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c8g49e0gwxeno https://www.cbsnews.com/news/new-photos-damage-u-s-kuwait-saudi-arabia-iran-drone-missile-attacks/ So. Besides the Millions spent on trying to defend these sites with expensive missiles, you are still getting expensive damage including lost aircraft. Oh. And little mention that Russia is providing detailed Targeting intel. |

| OnceDear Member since: Nov 21, 2017 Threads: 16 Posts: 1892 | The Kennedy Center shakedown continues. Congress has allocated funds to renovate the centre, but trump says renovation won't go ahead unless he gets credit for it, including the attachment of his name. Then his board of cronies close the place down and SOMEONE authorized the installation of a concrete barrier around it. And now, one of the forklifts installing that barrier REPEATEDLY rammed the outer columns of the center. It's a real shame that bastard didn't bring the roof down on his head. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/other/forklift-truck-seen-repeatedly-smashing-into-kennedy-center-pillar-amid-trump-takeover/ar-AA2cq24j "That's a nice memorial you have there. It would be a shame if anything happened to it" |
