    Another Trump thread!

    That sounds like one of the more silly conspiracy theories, to redirect the Israeli guilt.

    Another Trump thread!

    It is unlikely that the makers or original suppliers of the pagers. placed the explosives and implanted the software to detonate them. It is likely to have been done at a clandestine intermediate stage..without any knowledge of the OEM. The same is likely to be true of any future such...

    Another Trump thread!

    The Chinese had nothing to do with the Israelis putting explosives in pagers. You are being frightened by" what iffs." There is nothing more contagious than paranoia. We know the USA has back doors in chips designed by American companies. While it has never been shown that China has ever done...

    Trump has already put heavy tariffs on Its European Allies and on the UK. these are not small matters. He has also prevented Europe trading hitec goods and services with China. On the pretext of security, when in realty it is commercial protectionism, too shore up failing American industries...

    A Question for Trump Supporters

    America has not been able to control world oil prices for many years. It is out of their hands. This has become even more so since bricks no longer exclusively trades oil in dollars.. However Gas prices in the USA are always amongst the lowest in the world. But a president has no control over...

    Another Trump thread!

    Trump has said a number of times now, that he will put 100% tariffs on any country who de-dollarises and stops trading in dollars. That is the blatant use of American power to force other countries to his will. No wonder Europe is worried about Trump. He likened de-dollarisation to losing a war.

    I miss Walter Cronkite ...

    The only two I have read are the guardian a traditional liberal leaning and owned paper. And the BBC who will sack journalists for crossing the line between news and opinion. The Guardian makes it clear which is which, so no problem. Most social media is one sided or biassed sometimes accurate...

    I am done with Trump discussions

    When a country is pulling itself apart in to equal and opposite directions. There is little chance that it can grow or progress at all, Two party politics is something no country can afford. Only during periods of cooperation can progress be made. However never before have we seen a convicted...

    I am done with Trump discussions

    If America wants to keep its position at the top a little longer and maintain its hegemony. Then neither candidate has anything to offer, though Harris would give a softer landing. Tariffs and bans as per Trump and Biden, if continued, will ensure the USA's demise. As they are boosting China And...

    I am done with Trump discussions

    The fact is that there are not enough well educated SKILLED workers to go around. It would take many years to reverse this situation, but who would pay for it, or set it up. Top skilled educated stem Chines are returning home in droves.

    Who ever wins, there are going to be an almost equal number of very unhappy people. It is between the first black woman And the first white criminal To be elected as president. That is certain.

    If We All Became Atheists?

    Unless you are exposed to religion in some way. You would have no knowledge of it. Of necessity you would be an a atheist by default. The only other, but unlikely, position is that you invent a religion. Which is in all probability how proto religions started. Since then a vast majority of...

    If We All Became Atheists?

    With out religion there would be one less thing to divide us, argue about or fight about. Or even scare our children with. However people would have nothing to protect them from having to take responsibility for their own actions or responsibilities. I notice with some interest that a leading...

    Oklahoma schools in revolt over Bible mandate

    I am not sure where "democracy" fits with the enforced use of the bible in schools.. or how it fits in any way with the constitution. I find it very hard to name any country with a fully democratic political system. Or if that would be a good idea anyway. It is fairly evident that western...

    Oklahoma schools in revolt over Bible mandate

    That is like saying it is ok to use creationism to teach as science in schools It is certainly not OK. Forcing the teaching of the bible in any form is teaching religion. There is no other possible reason to do so. There are far better books to teach about literature , history, and about society.
