Hopefully not the last.

Given that the US southern border is a fiasco, I don't see what difference the US getting involved would make.

What the <deleted> has NATO been doing the last 30 years if that's how unprepared they are?

300,000 troops are just a bigger target for a nuclear tipped missile.

Followed by the flattening of Berlin, London and Paris.

LOL. IMO since the Berlin wall fell, European nations have been reducing the size and efficiency of their military forces. Since BAOR ended the British army is significantly reduced. Depending too much on America.

Not forgetting the cost, at a time when covid policies have wrecked Euro economies and inflation is worrying.

Excellent post. Keep 'em coming.

It's not necessary for it to be 100% human thought to eliminate millions of jobs. My bank has reduced the number of employees and open hours because they replaced them with a machine in the wall outside. I doubt governments have a clue what to do with millions of extra unemployable citizens.

I see that you are using the "attack the poster" rebuttal rather than debating what he wrote. Doesn't work with some of us.

You are either baiting me or being overly pedantic. Anyway, we didn't stop using fossil fuels so that must mean according to the "top scientist" we are all doomed now, so why bother doing anything about it? IMO for sure we ain't going to stop using fossil fuels till the crude runs out, and then we'll liquefy coal. IMO climate change isn't going to wipe us out , but our pollution, environmental destruction and overpopulation will.

Yes.

That doesn't mean that Al Jazeera is biased. We should all be concerned that the longer the war continues ( only because countries like the US keep fueling the fire ) the more likely it becomes a nuclear catastrophe. Even NZ would be affected by that.

and the Washington establishment have lost respect for their blatant attempts to stamp out any resistance to their rule. Fake news goes both ways, does it not? Anti Trumpers should ask themselves as to WHY a "moron with a very small brain and an unbelievable hubris" is so popular with a large part of the US population.

Seems that the US is heading for a crisis, and while Trump is not the cause, he may be the catalyst that starts it off. IMO I don't think the anti Trumpers understand that he is a symbol of resistance to the Washington swamp, and just how much a large part of the US hates Washington. IMO all the attacks on Trump are just an attempt to remove a thorn from the side of the Washington drones club, so they can get back to business as usual.

If so, we know which side has the most guns, and are prepared to use them.

Correct. IMO the pro swamp media has done a classic hatchet job on him for daring to oppose their cosy club of drones. Anyone not knowing the facts would think he was a really bad guy, but some of us can look at him objectively and see a flawed human that at least tried to do something to rescue the US from the Washington swamp. Given by the millions that support him, a large part of the citizenry are also able to see through the propaganda.

I sometimes wonder what the world would be like if the king hadn't been mentally ill, and had allowed representation.

It doesn't say the world will have collapsed. It says that humans will be wiped out, and no where did I say the world would collapse. The planet will be just fine if all humans were wiped out though.

I was told that by a restaurant owner in Pattaya. He had no reason to lie.

I wish they had, but it was likely a non starter as the cost of establishing a force capable of stopping Russia without America would be crippling. Far as I can see it's mainly US taxpayers that are supporting Ukraine- tell me if I'm wrong.

and I thought you had more common sense.

Perhaps. He was married when he started it, so no more introverted, and socially awkward than most. Anyway, however he was, most men in the world envied him in his heyday. I did because his girlfriend was Barbi Benton. The most amazing thing, looking back, is that it lasted so long in "fake morality" USA. For sure the Playboy centerfold of the month graced a lot of workshops and wardrobe doors for a very long time.

St. Patrick's Day has been celebrated for centuries. But what are the holiday's origins, and who exactly was St. Patrick? The Christian that brought Christianity to Ireland. I don't know enough about him to know why he was sainted, nor do I care, but I have visited the island where he lived near the village of Cong. No idea why it's a holiday, but it's just an excuse for a booze up now.
