Thanks for that very perceptive observation. Here was me for so long just seeing you as a Hasbara shill with a dangerously high post-count. My sincere congratulations, if you really are starting to notice that there two sides to this terrible problem.

At it again lads... defending the indefensible

That depends on how you define "nuts". In this case, I would say the real meshugas are the radical Zionists who have laid waste to Gaza and are in the process of ethnically cleansing the West Bank. All in the name of Eretz Israel inspired by the silly fables in their holy books. Talk about "nuts" - that takes the cake.

If the radical Zionists achieve their dream of Eretz Israel by forcing tbe Palestinians out of Gaza and the West Bank, then diaspora Jews worldwide will pay the price. In countries with large Muslim populations a peaceful existence for Jews will become untenable. They will make aliyah whether they want to or not.

For sure. It's obviously a proxy war... the West against Russia. The motley support team is replete with Zionist cheerleaders. Ineptitude and lack of coordination have taken it from tragedy into a farce like something run by the Keystone Kops.

That's a tough one. For flagrant bad behaviour, the prize would have to go to the Brits and Israelis. For discreet organized criminality, it would go to the Chinese.

That's true about China. Probably because they have interests in both countries that they don't want to put at risk. In this conflict, Trump is much more likely to be an honest broker. Unlike the Middle East, he has "no dog in this fight".

+1. Chiang Mai has Gunther's G&M Sausages and bacon... tastes good to me.

Thanks for that. It ain't no fake, bro.

Is that "ruining" or "running"? Either way, it begs the question: "who's running Trump?" Any guesses?

For sure. What the Dems need more than anything else is new talent and new faces. These old warhorses are way past their prime.

Is Tony Blair's demented smile catching, I wonder?

Obama has had his day. Dems need new blood. Nobody on their side looks good. Just a bunch of losers with the same old left-wing ideas that have been tried and failed time and time again.

No, I don't. To me it was always on the lower end of the scale. Almost as bad as Domino's. The Gold Standard is the pizza made by New York Italians. Small places in Little Italy, Court St. in Brooklyn, and Arthur Ave. in the Bronx make it like nowhere else. When Frank Sinatra was staying at the Plaza he would have it sent up from a little hole-in-the-wall place under the BB on the Brooklyn side. The delivery boys would love the run because there was always a C-note tip at the end of it. In CM The Duke's is pretty good - close, but no cigar.

Lovely girl. Her success with Blackpink has been long and enduring. Last August they filled Wembley Stadium for two successive nights. She's the pride of Thailand, and deservedly so.

+1. These pigs have been feeding at the trough for over 20 years now. When the corruption becomes too obvious and the leader gets sacked or deposed in some way, another relative or nominee pops up to take their place. It's political farce of the most brazen kind... TIT.

Quite true. My younger brother was a newly minted NY shyster back in the day when Judge Bruce Wright was presiding at the New York City Criminal Court. As a family court lawyer he was often in the 100 Centre St. building and frequently witnessed the chaos coming out of Judge Wright's chambers. Turn 'em loose Bruce was eventually brought down by pressure from municipal unions and others who faced a firestorm of "racial prejudice" accusations. He ended his days as a "greeter" at a Walmart in Old Saybrook, Conn. near where he had gone to live. "All's well that ends well."

Thanks for that exceptionally good reply. Nothing cuts through the fog of propaganda like the plain truth, simply stated.

He just did trip over one... that's why he slammed him and is considering the recognition of Palestine.

"You may be right I may be crazy Oh, but it just may be a lunatic you're looking for Turn out the light Don't try to save me You may be wrong for all i know But you may be right Now think of all the years you tried to find someone to satisfy you I may be as crazy as you say If I'm crazy then it's true That it's all because of you And you wouldn't want me any other way", Go Trump! Nixon and Henry the K only feigned madness in foreign policy. You're the real deal. Make America Great Again.

Funny you should say that about the Palestinians. It is exactly what the British rulers said about the American colonists in 1776. If the Israelis don't get rid of the radical meshugas in their government and give the Palestinians a fair deal, and do it soon, the weight of international condemnation will become crushing - as it was with Apartheid South Africa - and the Zionist enterprise will collapse like a house of cards.

Individuals and demographics who are widely hated usually do a good job of bringing it on themselves. A case in point here.

Here's your new ideal of beauty, Thailand.

You have "re-created" it as what exactly? ASEAN NOW ?

The only "Strategy" Thaksin and his corrupt clan has ever followed is promoting populist schemes that keep them in power while amassing riches beyond the dreams of avarice.
