Good question. There are many different pawn shops. There's the IOUs the government issues, the buyers of those bonds are very unlikely to win any legal process to claim assets of the US in any proceedings that could be enforced. The US government is not like a private individual. The United Nations General Assembly condemned debt collection on sovereign debt. When Argentina lost its famous case against the hedge funds in the US it simply refused to comply with the judgement. Ultimately it reached a settlement with bondholders, which is how these disputes tend to be resolved, by restructuring and negotiation. There's the IOUs companies issues in the form of bonds and notes. These are usually drafted in the offering documents in an iron clad way to minimise exposure of company assets, ofting using offshore vehicles in the Cayman Islands. Obviously loans by US banks to US companies are enforceable in the usual way. As are consumer loans in the US to US citizens. As to who owns the assets of the US, the largest companies obviously have diverse shareholders from all over the world, the real estate of the US is often owned by investment funds, some owned by Middle Eastern countries, some by Donald Trump, others by different companies and individuals. Every American owns his share of reward for the part of the GDP which he, or she, created.

I do, he looks like a peroxide blonde clown, like a cartoon figure. He may not be a bad man, it would appear person to person he's affable, and perhaps he's morally righteous. However, his political judgement, supporting a feminist liar, a documented liar and fraudster, Ayaan Hirsi Ali, is a big strike against him. He doesn't seem like a true right winger either, supporting Israel and exempting muslim Indonesians from his anti-Islam tirades. He's a candy shop rightwinger who picks and choose what suits him, not a true old school right winger. If Otto Skorzeny hat taken one look at this peroxide blonde clown he'd probably get a laughing fit.

These people who burn religious texts just to provoke some group they hate clearly have a screw loose and should be locked up for a long time. That's not normal behaviour.

The majority of Moluccans are muslims. "Majority follow Islam with Christianity being the second major religion of most Moluccans." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moluccans There are a small number of Christian Indonesians, but they are mostly Toba Batak people. The number of Moluccans in Indonesia incidentally is exceptionally small. They form a mere 50,000 or so of the 1.5 to 2 million Indonesians in Holland.

It's the testosterone, that's why they like sex so much too.

The estimates are 1.5 to 2 million, but either way that's a significant percentage of the tiny dutch population and certainly vastly more than Moroccans, Arabs or Africans. So a Moluccan Indonesian is more attuned to the humanist judaeo Christian traditions of the Netherlands? I rather doubt it. You could make that argument for the Toba Batak people of Indonesia at most, who are indeed Christians. However, the very, very vast majority of Indonesians are muslims.

Surely you jest. The most obvious common practice is the statement of the absolute unity of God, which Muslims observe in their five times daily prayers (salat), and Jews state at least twice (Shema Yisrael), along with praying 3 times daily. The two faiths also share the central practices of fasting (see Yom Kippur and Ramadan) and almsgiving, as well as dietary laws and other aspects of ritual purity. Under the strict dietary laws, lawful food is called Kosher in Judaism and Halal in Islam. Both religions prohibit the consumption of pork. Both practice circumcision. Abraham and other figures appear in the Koran. Islam and Judaism both consider the Christian doctrine of the trinity and the belief of Jesus being God as explicitly against the tenets of monotheism. Idolatry and the worship of graven images is likewise forbidden in both religions. Both have official colors (Blue in Judaism and Green in Islam). Both faiths believe in angels, as servants of God and share a similar idea of demons (Jinn and Shedim); Jewish demonology mentions ha-Satan and Muslim demonology mentions Al-Shai'tan both rejecting him as an opponent of God. Many angels also possess similar names and roles in both Judaism and Islam. Neither religion subscribes to the concept of original sin and both religions traditionally view homosexuality as sinful. Narrative similarities between Jewish texts and the Hadith have also been noted. For example, both state that Potiphar's wife was named Zuleika. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Islamic–Jewish_relations#:~:text=The two faiths also share,prohibit the consumption of pork. Okay, you got me there. But Ayaan Hirsi Ali? A fraudster, feminist and liar, this is whom he hitches his wagon to? As the son of an Indonesian woman it seems an odd choice, and you have to admit he looks exceedingly odd. Like an obese male Marilyn Monroe. He relishes his clown role and loves the attention of course, that's why he colours his hair peroxide blonde. No other way to call attention, he'd look boring like the Pilsbury dough boy otherwise.

That's my experience with Filipinas as well. They are more willing do the really dirty things and then enjoy it. The Thais will do it, but they don't enjoy as much. Filipinas can get really into it.

What are you on about? Why not bring them to Thailand?

No, he's right you should put full stops in those posts.

A doctor helping others, has 9 of his own children murdered. If there is a God, let there be justice for the Palestinian people.

Completely different. Hitlers war against Poland was a just war, however, when he thought he'd abuse the situation and get Lebensraum it became an offensive and unjust war. Russia's war is purely defensive. Nothing to do with Lebensraum or offensive war, nor racial issues. They're fighting their slav brothers.

Russia, but they had an issue of self defense due to NATO's deception. It is a legitimate war.

Has there been a reduction in pedophilia crime?

I was living in more luxury when outside of Thailand, but I am a lot happier here. The Thai people are the cause of this. Plus their massage and food culture, their beautiful women, the ease of life, the pace of life. I only regret I didn't come here in 2007.

I'd also prefer if the fighting stopped. But it's hard to do a ceasefire with Ukraine when they're deep within Russia causing death and destruction.

It's impossible to bankrupt the US. The US is richer than God. Add up the value of all companies in the US, add intellectual property, then add all the shares in circulation, then add all the real estate in the US, then add in the trillions of GDP that pour in every year. In short, the US will never go bankrupt.

I understand Trump's frustration, he wanted peace, but Putin can see he's winning so he wants to drag it out a bit. But they'll agree a peace in due course. Neither Ukraine nor Russia can afford to keep fighting forever. Putin is doing what is best for his country, and if that means advancing somewhat deeper into Ukraine, then that's what will happen.

There's two million people of Indonesian heritage in the Netherlands. About 11 percent of the population. That's 4 times more than Moroccans, and vastly more than Arabs in the Netherlands. It's not consistent. The majority of Indonesians are muslims. If Wilders had his way they would all be deported. Including his Indonesian family, presumably? If you want to be right wing, you have to be real right wing. You can't just pick and choose like in some candy shop. You can't support Israel, exempt Indonesians. That's not real right wing. Wilders is just a showman right winger, a right wing clown so to speak.

Clearly he's riding the popular dislike of immigrants, like most European countries Holland's politicians made the mistake to take in far too many immigrants. Obviously Holland can't take anymore. However, Wilders is far too extreme about it. Ban the Koran? That's insane. What is he afraid of? You can stop immigration, but you cannot incite to hatred of Dutch nationals who have committed no crimes. Wilders was convicted of that in the Netherlands.

t's a terrible shock for me too! No. You're not familiar with "Klare Wijn", his political manifesto? Point 2 "Replacement of the present Article 1 of the Dutch constitution, guaranteeing equality under the law, by a clause stating the cultural dominance of the Christian and Jewish traditions" Wilders also thought "implementing Israeli-style administrative detention, ie arrest without trial, in the Netherlands" would be a great idea. He spent a year in Israel and is rabidly pro Jewish and pro Israel. But my first indication that Wilders was a fraud was when he championed the documented liar and feminist Ayaan Hirsi Ali, another political clown. Wilders has among the poorest judgement in Europe. Another clear indication he is not well in the head, what grown man colours his hair peroxide blonde? I will take a straberry blonde Dutchman, even brunette, but I draw the line at peroxide blonde Dutchmen. It's not carnival season every day in Holland, surely? Then the first you'll have to deport is Wilders, who is the son of an Indonesian woman born in Sakumbi, Indonesia. Have you noticed how he never attacks Muslims from Indonesia in Holland? Morrocans? Yes. Arabs? Yes. Never Indonesians.

So true as well, oxytocin, dopamine, the chemical cause of the love feeling, it's a fascinating line of enquiry. Great film too. Keanu and Pacino probably demanded a better script, but still a classic.

Wilders was extensively discussed in leaked American diplomatic cables. In a briefing to president Barack Obama, he was described as "no friend of the US: Wilders has been bleaching and dyeing his hair to peroxide-platinum blond since at least the mid-1990s. He gives even anti-Islamists a bad name as his hatred for Islam is so extreme he distorts the Koran, a book he wanted to ban in Holland, he quotes verses and misinterprets them with the aim to incite hatred of Muslims. He is so extreme he was banned from the United Kingdom. Home Secretary Jacqui Smith banned Wilders from entering the United Kingdom, labeling him an "undesirable person" He is married to a Hungarian Jewess and bends the knee to Israel. He called for Judaism to be recognised as a state religion in Holland. Wilders also is very good friends with that charlatan and fraud Ayaan Hirsi Ali, as she is also a fellow anti-Muslim fanatic. He strolls around with his plantinum blonde dyed hair like a hatred-filled peacock. I've never seen anyone more contemptible rise to high office in Europe who was so extreme. Nigel Farage is a moderate by comparison.

I do not get people who want to do it in public. You pay money for narcotics, surely the only way to enjoy them is in your bed at home with a lady? Why would you waste it by getting high in Big C? It makes no sense.

I had acupuncture from a highly trained Western professional. I could not believe it, but boy does it work. You really notice the difference.
