The most foolish thing Europe and the UK are doing, is maintaining the sanctions against Russian oil and gas.

You have written that before, and again, I completely disagree with you. Don't put Russia into this mix. It's a complete different war, standing on its own legs. The sanctions there are 110% necessary, and they are actually working! Russia is running on fumes as we speak. They are in deep problems, with Putin now asking his oligarchs to help financing the war.

The oil and gas problem is a temporary one, the sanctions against Russia are there to solve and eliminate Europe's biggest threat, Russia, for a safer future for all Europeans.

Edit: Laughing emoji, 555.. Of course there are som Putin lovers on here. That's to be expected.

So you've met all 93,000,000 Iranians and know them to be what you call "savages"?

I think the real savage is in your bathroom mirror. Vile.

You think that russian oil is not comming in the west ? You need to check out how superpowers like China, India and some east european nations are buying cheap russian oil, changing the label and selling it back to the west at double the price. When it comes to economy and public interest, morality has fortunately (or unfortunately) no place. And currently, the threat seems to come more from Iran then Russia. The sanctions against the Russians are absurd, useless and are not preventing the sale of their oil. It is plainly harming western and other nation's populations. Have a nice day.

I have no words...

Why do you think Putin has asked (read: told) oligarchs to contribute to Putin's war economy? Of course sanctions are working, several oil tankers have even been taken into arrest as well.

And Ukraine has bombed their way into destroying around 40% of Russia's oil reserves. The last strike this morning, far into Russian areas, at Novorossiysk.

Together, Europe and Ukraine needs to keep up the pressure from several angles. And sanctions are also more than oil and gas.

As I said, Putin would never ask for help from oligarchs if it wasn't absolutely necessary. It is indeed working, even if some is getting through.

The alternative, opening up sanctions, is the absolute worst the West and NATO can do now. Just so you, SingAPorn, can have a few baht cheaper full tank on your car? So Russia can keep bombing civilians in Ukraine?

I'm glad Europe and NATO still have their eyes on the ball.

But have a nice day!

I reckon in Trump's demented brain his antics project strength but in reality they signal massive weakness and desperation. He hates to be seen as a LOSER more than anything -- well, these are going to hard times for him for sure.

Come on. Macron is highly respected in countries around Europe.

Well, he had a rap group playing music at the Elysée Palace. The rap group sung to the tune of "Nique ta mère!" He set the age of consent in France to 15, which is ok, only he did so because Madame Macron "met" him when he was 15 years old. At the same time in France walking up to a woman and telling her "I give you 50, let's have fun" is now a crime (Nordic Model). This is reminicent of Emperor Augustus who sent poet Ovid into exile while the Emperor's Palace in Rome was full of transvestites. Macron is a product of our Time all right.

The United States has the highest number of millionaires globally, both in total numbers and by many per capita metrics, holding nearly 40% of the world's millionaires.

As of 2025, approximately 23.8 million people in the U.S. are millionaires, driven by high equity/property values, a strong tech sector, and high private wealth accumulation. ... Business Insider

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

IMO Trump's rants are an indicator of his increasing desperation.

Hegseth and Trump thought the success with Venezuala and Maduro made them invincible. That hubris, applied to Iran, was a mirage.

He's trapped. If he pulls out with the Strait still closed, he can't dodge responsibility for the loss of 20% of the world's oil supply. Domestically, the all=important gas price at the pump will have ripple effects on the cost of all goods and services.

If he puts boots on the ground, that opens a whole new can of worms. No wonder he is screeching at other countries for help.

IIRC the US has one of the world's highest rates of overweight and obese people.

The average healthy life expectancy (HALE ) of Japan is 8 years more than America. Japan has one of the world's lowest obesity rates.

Only a person who is as shallow as a mud puddle would measure a country's wellbeing by the number of millionaires it has.

So you measure a county's worth by the number of millionaires? Wow, shallow, very very shallow.

Cultural worth? Scientific contribution? Arts? History? Nah, how rich they are.

You think they were all born millionaires, and did earn it by contributing. Developing tech or what ever. Creating companies, jobs, tax revenue.

Again, you replied to a thread saying that Iran is higher up the scale in terms of engineers and scientists per capita. And your response is "we have more rich people than them, so ner!".

A pretty low class response.

Haven't a clue what the threads about, as didn't read the OP. Just replying to the last post, that I saw, as I come in on last posts.

Trumps in the title, so it's just another Trump / USA bash thread. Yanks are fat, though I don't know a whole lot of fat folks. Yanks pick the wrong careers, although most folks I know, retired early.

Money is always a good gauge for success ... that's all. Not your body, not your choice of career, but what and how you use and succeed at what talent one does have.

Flip side, I was knocking on the millionaires benchmark, and more than happy enough. Now I'm poor (relative) and never been happier.

Only person people need to impress, is the person in the mirror. If happy with what you see, that person, that's all that matter.

After 47 years of sponsoring terrorism around the world, I'm glad someone has the balls to say to Iran, enough is enough.

The Epstein hoax is getting out of steam due to the Iran war.

The legal system already understands the sexual abuse allegations are insanely exaggerated, yet continues to play along with the victim charade anyway because there is just too much money available to be extracted from all these rich men and institutions. We are down to hand-holding now, and it's every bit as victimizing as anything you can imagine.

So Macron = wild conspiracy theories based on vibes…

…but Jeffrey Epstein = 'hoax' despite victims, court records, and Ghislaine Maxwell being convicted.

Pick a lane.

It's difficult to choose, there is so much material.

Maybe the insanity of a President who puts a 500% tariff on immunoglobulins and recombinant proteins from Australia, which Big Pharma either cannot make, or can't make in sufficient quantity to satisfy demand.

Thereby ensuring Australian companies will look for less capricious markets, and also putting the lives of his own citizens at risk.

We can also list quite a few things about Australia, like these,https://www.humanrightscareers.com/issues/examples-of-social-issues-in-australia/ along with Dementia being the leading cause of deaths.............https://www.hrw.org/world-report/2024/country-chapters/australia

Aed Carbao has come out in support of Iran am away from my desktop at the moment so can't screengrab. He's wearing a t-shirt saying Save Iran at his latest concert. I can forgive him for his Suthep support now he like most of the world knows who is the aggressor here and knows why every country on earth is suffering because of this incontravertible fact.

Iran is not taking him seriously anymore either.

Speaking of deranged, it is a little bit batsh!t crazy to now be threatening the nuclear plant at Bushehr. Missiles and bombs have hit within 75 meters of the plant. Russia has moved out its citizens who work there, which might well be experts who know how to contain the reactor in the event of a problem.

If Bushehr goes, all manner of radioactive material not only goes airborne, it also goes seaborne.

Desalination plants, that provide drinking water for the millions of inhabitants along the Gulf, are quite good at removing salt from Gulf water. They are not so good at removing radioactive particles.

While people won't instantly die from the radioactivity, the combination of breathing it and drinking it guarantees long term health problems and an explosion of cancer. Nobody would choose to move and work there, not even digital nomads. Folks already living there, including the indigenous population, would likely choose to leave.

If the world thinks it has a refugee problem now, wait until Bushehr gets hits.
