  1. The hostages by most accounts are still alive. When I find out where they are being sheltered I'll let you know and you can suggest to Hamas they should swap them out with at risk infants.
  2. Agree with @AndreasHG They are nearly impossible to cover up indefinitely. But in some cases it can take awhile to reveal them. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuskegee_Syphilis_Study
  3. It's hard to imagine a disaster other than the origin of the coronovirus that the Chinese or USA governments would be more motivated to cover up at all costs. As some have pointed out, if the origin is from a Chinese lab and if the US were directly involved, such as providing virus samples, Chinese cooperation is likely not needed to reach a conclusion. Fun fact that you won't find on Fauci's wikipedia page other than a vague one sentence mention - that he was hand picked by Dick Cheney and given complete control over US biodefense research. "...In other words, as far as NIAID was concerned, there was no meaningful administrative distinction between biodefence and scientific research. With the stroke of Cheney’s pen, all United States biodefence efforts, classified or unclassified, were placed under the aegis of Anthony Fauci. So important was this new command structure that a representative from the office of Scooter Libby, Cheney’s powerful chief of staff, was physically placed in NIAID headquarters in Washington during the transition to function as “a kind of political commissar” from the vice president’s office. This gave Fauci unparalleled access to not just Cheney, but President Bush, to whom he had an open channel. Fauci now had a virtual carte blanche to not merely approve but design and run the kind of research projects he sought — and could do so with no oversight structure above him. Biodefence projects that formerly would have fallen under the authority of military or intelligence agencies were now under his direct supervision." [Note Ebright mentioned below is convinced covid resulted from a lab leak - maybe his 2003 concerns were prescient or is fitting facts to support his position?] "...but it was Fauci’s ability to span the divide between science and politics, to “play ball”, that made him essential to the political echelon. The rapid increase in biodefence funding in the post-9/11 world, and the mushrooming of agencies and departments involved in the endeavour, would inevitably draw critics. One was, and still is, Richard Ebright, a major figure in the world of epidemiology who serves as chair of the Board of Governors and is a Professor of Chemistry and Chemical Biology at Rutgers University. “...This well-intentioned response may perversely have exactly the opposite effect,” Ebright told the Los Angeles Times in 2003, implying that the burgeoning field of biodefence research could lead to leaks, failures, and even a bioweapons arms race. But, by then, the Bush administration had hired a man credible enough to respond to, and, in many ways, outshine the critics. “It’s going to be a challenge,” Fauci told the Times, dismissing Ebright’s concern as “spurious”. “But I have every confidence that the biomedical research community will adapt well to the change.” "Spurious?" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laboratory_biosecurity_incidents
  4. Deporting them back to their home country is a little cruel considering how cold it is in London now.
  5. The Swissie gave one kick in Phuket. I wonder how much traction this story gets among Thai "netizens."
  6. He immediately sensed something was amiss when he felt a slight bulge against his leg when the "woman" hugged him.
  7. Not the first time she's had her hair pulled when drunk and won't be the last.
  8. Well Albert Einstein, you haven't exactly sussed out how to correctly reply to a post have you?
  9. "In the past 48 hours...at least two have died from low temperatures and a lack of access to warm shelter" It's the Palestinian leadership that are denying them access to shelter. No one is freezing in Qatar or in the tunnels of Gaza. They value the lives of foreign hostages more than their Palestinian infants. That seems to be the only point on which the Palestinian leadership agrees with the Israeli leadership.
  10. Have you asked your friend why he needs to know the answer to this?
  11. The USA and China should be contributing the most since it may have been their biodefense/offense experiments that led to Covid.
  12. A long winded cousin of BarBoy/Bob. 🤡
  13. No assets? Does he live on the streets in his home country?
  14. "a group of Indian tourists hired them to work as party entertainers" A friendly game of cricket eh? Were the Indians batting or bowling?
  15. Teenage behavior from a 34 year old. What a loser.
  16. In grammar had a butch female PE teacher who would make us walk around the yard holding hands for fighting. Then you had to scrape together two mounds of gravel and sit on them on your hands. In high school the coaches had the paddles. Made the mistake of mocking one coach in front of everyone after the first pop didn't hurt. Second one did.
  17. Yes and a C-class is the sign of a true poseur.
  18. Looks like he's giving her some sign language.
  19. Exactly. Anything that gives the women and ladyboys an excuse to take selfies with (such as Christmas trees) is bound to be a hit.
  20. "Police revealed that Mack was murdered, dismembered...leading to an intense investigation... with forensic teams working diligently to piece together"
  21. Assign the crew batons or preferably lathi sticks. That will get those seat belts buckled. https://www.indiatoday.in/india/north/story/delhi-police-softer-plastic-batons-vs-bamboo-lathis-mob-managment-166943-2013-06-15
