  1. I agree with you Jim. By some odd coincidence both Israel and the USA are members of the UN, yet neither are members of the ICJ.
  2. I don't think that it is the entire population of the USA, but possibly the Zionist lobbyists leading the sheeple Trump administration by the nose, and they are following the money.

    I use a whetstone or an oilstone together with olive oil and 10 strokes in each direction 5 times. It works in normal knives and cleavers but I have no idea what to use for serrated blades like a breadknife. You can buy whetstones at most hardware stores and they are not expensive. IIRC my Dad used to use a pumice stone decades ago in the UK, but I have never seen one in Thailand.
  4. Why? Neither Trump nor you like or even understand the truth.
  5. And how much real peace has he brought to the world so far? Not what he has claimed to have brought, but real lasting peace anywhere?
  6. Abd now it seems that Trump was not content with his first post on "Truth Social", according to the BBC News website this morning here https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c7413d9xvkeo he seems to have done it again. I have no comment or explanation other than to quote from "Forrest Gump" the AI explanation AI Overview "Stupid is as stupid does" is a famous saying from Forrest Gump meaning a person is judged by their foolish actions, not their inherent intelligence or looks; it suggests that smart people can do dumb things, and true stupidity is revealed through behavior, not appearance or potential, a concept popularized by the film but rooted in older folk sayings.
  7. As a Brexiteer for many years, I have to agree with you that the the EU is a far more reliable partner than the USA, especially under Trump and probably for years after he is gone, as IMHO it will take tears if not decades, for the USA to regain the trust that Trump has destroyed.
  8. He is a Trump supporter. He has no point.
  9. Many decades ago my Mum fav me some very sensible advice that most of my life I have r=tried to keep. If you have nothing good to say about a person, then day nothing. A simple piece of advice, that Trump should take note of and be aware of every single day of his life.
  10. Isn't that sentence something of an oxymoron?
  11. It is all well and good saying that the masses should shut the economy down, but how do you support your family and pay your bills? No work = no money. and I am sure that the rich people can hold old out longer than poor people.
  12. And if the allegations, NOT accusations are unfounded, then what? Anybody can make allegations, but it is the proof that is needed. So where is your proof?
  13. Of course be has no intelligence, that is one reason why he posts rubbish.
  14. Predictions are only guesswork. Asking 2,500 people how 40,000,000 people will vote, is like playing darts blindfolded after being spun in different directions. But to be able to do any of that, the PP need to win an overwhelming majority of seats in parliament, (at least 300 plus seats) to become the majority party in their own right . Granted that they won the most seats at the last election they could still not form a government on their own, and TBH, I don't they can this time either, so unless they can or even want to form a coalition government with other parties, they won't be in power this time either.
  15. I suggest that you watch a film called "On The Beach" based on the book by Neville Shute The entire US armed forces is commanded by a Lt Cmdr as he and the crew of his submarine are the only US military left alive in the world. The book and the film are based about Australia which was neutral in a nuclear war. You may even learn about MAD and why MAD exists.
  16. And does every house in the UL have solar power, an EV, does every house have it own water supply and fields to grow wheat? If the water comes from the sky, what do you so about the radiation? How do plough and reap the fields when they are irradiated? Where to do take the wheat to be milled and what do you pay with? Do you have an EV tractor? Where does all the sewage waste go to? Where do you get fresh or tinned food and what do you pay with? It is nice to have an EV, bit where will you drive it to? What will you do if you need medicine, a doctor or visit a hospital?
  17. Another good idea that I wish I had thought about.
  18. A very good and well explained post. It is something that I plan to do starting this week.
  19. Silly me. And I thought thought that you lived in Thailand, Nowhere the UK.
  20. * live in rural Kamphaeng Phet and I will make 5 copies in English and then make 5 Google translated copies in Thai. In English, 1 copy each for my 2 remaining pensions, and one for Wise Bank UK, 1 for my wife and 1 left in the top drawer. In Thai, 1 for the joint bank account at Kbank, 1 for my sole account at Bangkok bank, 1 for my wife, 1 for the amphur and 1 left in the top drawer.
  21. The problem for them is that they need to win at least 350 to 400 seats, which will give them an overall single party majority with some spares for illness etc plus EVERY MP will have to turn up to parliament for every House session. TBH I cannot see this happening, as there are too many political parties, with too many self interested MPs, with too many vested interests.
  22. And what will you live on in the meantime? Your cash will be worth nothing, your credit cards will be useless. the only food and water you will have will be in your house. There will be no fuel for your car, no electricity, gas, medicines, doctors or hospitals. No TV or radio unless it is a battery radio. in fact there will be nothing. If you go outside you will suffer from radiation poisoning. And this idiot thinks that those 19 places are safer? IMHO the safest place is right underneath the detonation point. A flash and a bang and it is all over. Who would want to survive a nuclear war anyway?
  23. And how are Trump's tax forms coming along from his first period. Still under investigation by the tax offices? You do realise that he is the only president NOT to have published them.
  24. So according to your thinking, Hamas terrorists forced Netanyahu to make that video and then forced the Israeli TV networks to show it. I wonder how they managed to do that?
