I wondered for a minute how big a hole an "earthquake drill" woul make, and why you would need one in an underpass? Sorreeeeee..........

I call bs on this.

Perhaps those roof cracks have become a problem and need fixing.

A real earthquake exercise would involve rescuing residents from collapsed houses and mountain slips.

The war is going great

1tooth · March 6Mar 6

Washington and Tel Aviv now claim they’re “lowering the intensity” of their strikes so they can keep attacking longer. Spare us this bull<deleted>. Iran has been throwing waves of cheap drones and missiles precisely to exhaust US and Israeli weapons stockpiles,and it’s painfully obvious that strategy is working. And there is more: Russia and China are providing targeting data to allow Iran to successful destroy American assets. Is it working? Let’s see: The American satellite imaging

Dutch Jews Come Under Attack; Two Incidents in Two Days

Evil Penevil · yesterday at 11:06 AM1 day

Two separate Jewish institutions have come under bomb or arson attack in the Netherlands. Luckily, no one was injured. Attacks on Jewish schools and synagogues appear to be rising at an alarming rate. Explosion rocks Amsterdam Jewish school in what mayor says is ‘targeted attack’ against Jewish community An explosion struck overnight at a Jewish school in Amsterdam in what the city’s mayor called a “targeted attack against the Jewish community.” The blast hit the outer wall of the school, loca

I attribute that to the hate such people have for Judeo Christian morality.

Dave0206 replied to GammaGlobulin's topic in The War in Israel

Much to my disappointment the Democrats have many fully paid up ( by paid up i mean they are bought and owned by aipac) so although the public opinion may be changing the support for Israel is going nowhere until at least a few cycles of house and Senate have caught up with the public

Nations are now openly mocking america. Germany's Defense Minister Boris Pistorius said Monday that Germany would not take part militarily in the conflict. “What does Donald Trump expect from a handful of European frigates in the Strait of Hormuz that the mighty US navy cannot manage alone? This is the question I find myself asking,” he added.

I am not going to address anyone directly because I do not want anyone to feel like a jilted lily, but I have noticed something interesting about my own forum reading habits. For one, I read far more than I post. Often I do not even log in to scan through a few topics, and if someone averages about a dozen posts a day, I tend to skip right over anything they write. It did not start that way. At first I just noticed certain posters who write extremely long posts waffling on about their personal

Religion is no joking matter!

unblocktheplanet · Saturday at 09:17 AM2 days

Don’t make fun of anybody’s religion… they might be right! The Nation of Islam worldview was dominated by an apocalyptic and prophetic vision which held that the African American, the "original" or "Asiatic" black man, fell into a state of social domination that began with slavery.'1 This situation was a direct result of the machinations of an evil black scientist, Yakub, who grafted white people, also known as "devils," from original black people a little more than 6,000 years ago. There had

McDonald’s Beef Patties in Thailand, Any Good?

Kyoto Kyle · Friday at 10:31 PM2 days

I’m wondering if McDonald’s beef patties in Thailand are actually any good in terms of meat quality. I can’t remember the last time I had one here. Maybe once or twice many years ago. The reason I’m asking is because I just realized there’s a 24 hour McDonald’s within walking distance of where I’m staying now. If the patties actually taste decent, I was thinking that late one night I might buy two double cheeseburgers, or maybe two Quarter Pounders with cheese, take them home, stack all four pa
