rough diamond

I call it bad taste!

He opened the door to let his ego/big head out,

There is nothing irrational about hatred for that idiot Trump, especially if you are not American. Russians, Chinese etc are of course his best buddies for obvious reasons and not included above!

It is NOT a joke when anyone is killed. It makes it worse to the families of the bereaved when they find out it was not their relative's fault or illness etc but that of a DRUNK driver!

AN members who are MAGAs!

Have you considered the possibility that they are right and that you are wrong?

Prude! Actually you are right. Just imagine what BOB and a few others would post.

But only if you are a sucker!

Thanks. You had me confused!!

You should know by now that no such reading or understanding ever takes place. Even if it did the tape cuts in with the pre-prepared script.

Known what? If you actually read the thread I have already made some comments/posts!

Do you have any alternatives without the need to record etc. i.e. Just a one to one "telephone" call from a mobile in Thailand to an overseas Government/business landline?

So you are the one getting "overly agitated when surrounded by non-Brits" and YOU are the one complaining! I wonder what they think and how they react to you?

No! He is too thick and big headed to be offended.

They do wear masks if they are deploying CS Gas (anti riot gas) whether or not they are clubbing anyone! Is that okay?

I agree w.r.t personal calls. But; How many Government Departments and Financial Institutions etc let you have a conversation on "LINE"?

Did you read your link; https://natowatch.org/newsbriefs/2018/how-gorbachev-was-misled-over-assurances-against-nato-expansion It states; "None of the assurances of non-expansion were included in any treaty documents, as NATO makes clear in its official explanation on its website: “NATO allies take decisions by consensus and these are recorded. There is no record of any such decision having been taken by NATO. Personal assurances, from NATO leaders, cannot replace alliance consensus and do not constitute a formal NATO agreement”. All the other comments mentioned are claimed to be quotes from personnel but none with linked sources Whether they support or do not support the argument. Here are some comments with a different view from the same link; ""Former US ambassador to Moscow Michael McFaul labelled the idea of a reneged promise a “myth” in an interview in 2016. Other experts have labelled Russian grievances as a case of “false memory syndrome”."

Is "Bob" getting someone else to "host" his posts?

He won't be trusting either of them.

You will be talking the stone age if Putin and Trump get this all wrong.

Thanks. Although neither of those two were really in a position to create as much damage world wide as Trump.

I did not ask you!

You mean there has been a US President worse than Trump? Who the hell was that?

Nobody needs Trump and few outside of the US want him around, except of course Russia, China, Iran etc.

Musk seems to think otherwise going by his actions and comments.
