Disaster in the Making

[Conager]

If by "wins" you mean giving Syria to the Russians, along with a warm-water port; you're right.

Last I checked the Rooskies have had dibs on the port for more than several weeks. I have to say on the geopolitical scale giving the Chinese Long Beach was a much bigger deal.

Johnny, Syria was ALWAYS in the Russian camp. Has been since 1948. Neither Trump nor anyone else GAVE Syrian to the Russians. Try as you might, you just can't give away something you never had.

News gets to Johnny's part of the world by osmosis...

 

[JohnnySavage]

Eh... I don't much care about over there.

Frost this morning, and it's the first time in 10 years I've had a truck with a defroster (and heater) that works. I'm all aglow.

 

[SpeareChucker]

Soak it up Johnny, soak it up...

 

[bellisarius]

How are those CNN ratings gong?

As an aside, it appears that CBS news is following CNN's marketing strategy. <chuckle>

 

[SpeareChucker]

I only watch the Russian News...

 

[bellisarius]

Of course you are, that's all the networks are reporting on these days.

 

[SpeareChucker]

That's a topic of its own.



How did we come to hate ourselves and our culture so badly...?

 

[bellisarius]

"Higher" education.

 

[SpeareChucker]

"Higher" education.

It's all Greek to me...

 

[phrodeau]

^^^^Scene inside a bubble.

 

[bellisarius]

It's all Greek to me...

After years and years of imposing their egg head theories on how to raise up the rest of the world - and seeing them fail. They decided the only way to achieve that "equality" was to tear the developed world down.

This is an apt description of your President’s hardcore base. That’s why they wear hats implying that America is not great. Most of the rest of us love our country, our culture, and ourselves.

What? Contributing to global warming?

Shame on you.

I don't hate myself. I don't even hate anyone else. (well, other than... nevermind.)


However, I believe very strongly that those who are "hate groupies" and who espouse the constant "you're a white supremacist" thing are themselves insecure about themselves.

Take Michael Moore (please!). Listening to him the other day whine about how white people are afraid of the fact that by 2054 Whites will no longer be the majority in the US was pathetic.

No one I know, except those like Mr. Moore, even consider such things. Yet there he was projecting that somehow he knows what I, and millions of others, are thinking. Mental health people call that projection. Moor is projecting HIS OWN fears and then overcompensating for them.

This is the common denominator among the "hate groupies". Even here on Lit where the usual suspects, once they're cornered in any debate, instantly revert to patting themselves on the back because "deplorables can't help themselves." Their insecurities require them to revert to type and place their own inner fears and beliefs onto others.

So, in the end, it's not really "hate", it's mental illness. They're just fucking crazy.

Russians aren't going to be owning Syria. They've been building that facility at Tartus under a naval agreement with Syria since the 70s.

Why does the left hate science? Any Anthropologist will tell you that birth rates are inversely proportional to Prosperity. As societies become more prosperous they tend to have less children. The same people that are indoctrinating children with secular humanism assume that all Hispanics are going to continue to be good Catholics with high birth rates. There's no reason to assume that. Also as people who are not white move into the majority assuming that that even happens ( without a continued influx of illegal immigration) you have to assume a certain level of prosperity for a reasonable cross-section of people who are not white. As they become more prosperous and feel the owner has burden of government more will who's to say they aren't going to become good little Republicans?

Population and demographic projections are just that. Projections and most of the ones I've seen are based on static modeling that don't take into account what's going to happen as things change. The more things change the more things change.

Just because the Democrats imported an entire dependent class doesn't mean that they can count on the children and grandchildren of that dependent class to still be dependent upon the DNC.

What is with Flameout's insistent hard-on for you, lately?

No idea, but it’s not the first time they’ve limped around after me.

I think poor eeyore just needs a strong woman to self-flagellate to.


He fixated on Aglaopheme when Laurel stopped answering his calls.

You’re welcome to take your cult follower back, LAUREL!!!!!

Don't get all perky here, Vette. She isn't into your scat fetish.

Poor schmuck hasn't been the same since Grace dumped him.

Well, now we can stay to protect all of Russia’s oil rights.

ROFLMAO - !!!

I couldn't get past this part. Too fucking funny.

The cult of the Zombie that thinks ghosts in the sky watch out every move in eternal judgement and that the earth is 6000 years old asks "Why does the left hate science?" !?!? - LOL

Keep 'em coming.

Tell the one about the guy that put two of all animals in a boat and forgot the unicorns. Thats my favorite.

Zumi is a racist liar on my IGGY list for total bullshit like the above. I have no personal interest in you other than a fascination for the extent of your political and historical ignorance. I might from time to time offer an appreciation for a fine boob or two but only in a sense of levity. In addition, I have no idea who "Grace" is supposed to be either. Another groundless insinuation I suppose.

 

[BoyNextDoor]

How about the Israeli reaction to this disastrous move in Syria?

This is the fast-shifting Israeli mindset that awaits Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, who is expected to touch down in Israel Friday and meet Mr. Netanyahu to discuss regional security matters, chief among them Iran.

The challenge he faces is evident in two recent op-ed headlines in the mainstream, mass-circulation Israeli daily Yediot Ahronot: “The Next Betrayal” and “A knife in our back.”

In the same publication, Shimrit Meir, the founding editor of Al-Masdar, an Israeli news website in Arabic, writes, “It is time for the most loyal Trump supporters in the region and beyond to come to terms with the fact the U.S. can no longer be relied on as it continues to spin out of control.”

 

[bigsly]

The very best thing to happen to America right now is for every nation in the world to quit relying on it. After all, communist China and Russia are salivating to step into that mindless void, so what do they have to lose?

I replied to what you left when you quoted me. As for the rest, I know it’s hard to read with comprehension when you’re so triggered, they we weren’t talking about you. The one exception was a reply about “your fetish”.

Breathe and you can’t stop protesting so much.
