Good point. I didn't even think of that.

sigh....................perhaps not.
And we are ALL stuck with "The Donald" and pretty good looking
bimbo in a very hostile world.
I'm gonna HATE MYSELF for what I'm about to write.
In this situation, in this volatile world, given these current conditions,
I wish Hillary were P O T U S.
(may gawd forgive me for saying that)
Hillary has the experience, and demeanor to handle a crisis such as
this.
O.M.G. ! ? Did I actually admit that????
It is definitely not just Daesh.
There are a bunch of Christian evangelical Trump supporters who believe that the end times are upon us. Armageddon in the Middle East will bring about The Second Coming of Christ.
Not everybody in the USA is opposed to religious war. Some are banking on it .

This is why I supported her. Not because she's a good person, but because she is a competent world leader.

Like he did in the campaign?

I feel bad for the diplomat and his family. Putin is the one responsible, the civil servant was just doing his job.Meh, no sympathy. The Russians are helping a regime who engage in civilian killing at the drop of a hat and the rebels are desperate to the point they can't strike back at the Russian army so they'll strike back at the Government who orders them. No doubt I'll be accused of engaging in lies and propaganda by some...
So was the Freedom Fighter who shot him.
The problem is that nearly everybody is fine with violence if it gets them what they want.
We True Pro-Lifers get very angry about that.

Of course, neither did Serbia have the means to fight Austria-Hungary and potentially Germany back in 1914 either.
And it is a bit of an oversimplification to say that the European countries wanted that war. My current impression is that a more accurate description would be that most every ruler of the time chose to take a lousy bet that the others' fear of the consequences of an open conflict would carry the day, while their own nationalistic pride would spare themselves from the same.
A stupid, very large, very self-defeating bet. But a galvanizing one all the same.
Thankfully I've never seen the moral high-ground, let alone claimed it. I'm much more interested in results myself.
They wanted a war. Now, it should be specified, the type of war that both sides wanted was much more along the lines of the Franco-Prussian war. A short, decisive campaign where a victor is clearly decided.
What they got was the American Civil War writ large.
As far as Serbia not having the means to fight the Dual-Monarchy, that is true. But Serbia knew they could bank on unconditional Russian support. Russia does not have a backer that could fund their war.
No, no, it's not that bad.
It's worse. Rick Perry couldn't ****ing name the government agency he's going to be a part of. And the reason he was trying to name it at all? He wants to get rid of it.
**** Rick Perry.
So am I.
That's why I oppose elective abortion and support Planned Parenthood. I want results. I don't care about what somebody's ideology or religion tells them that the results should be.

You forgot Flynn and Bannon, so it's even worse than you say.

It seems pretty obvious that Trump wasn't supposed to win so if he was ever assassinated I imagine it would be done by someone here in the U.S.
What does this mean?
Of course Trump won. So, he was supposed to as far as I can see. The USA now chooses presidents because they are good at lying and cozying up to our enemies. Competent leadership is less important. Trump is what the system gauges the USA electorate for.
Tom
Like kinedy!
Probably yes too.
He won didn't he?
I rest my case.
Not that I approve of him or even like him but he did win now didn't
he?
So one must conclude that "We the people" spoke.
Get over it.
