There's so much goes on in the world, uncommented upon here, that I reckon we need this thread to react to minor sorts of things going on. For example - crazy Muslamic maniac crashes into pardying 3am youths in Noo Orlinz and then runs about putting down (crap it would appear) bombs which don't go off. Technology backfires and the super spyscope CCTV blizzard of info from a myriad of sources and angles initially convinces the bungling and easily-panicked US flatfoots into assuring us that multiple crazed bombers were running about, but then they slowly realise it was one sole nutcase. He had an Isis flag on his backseat they said. But then it emerges that he's been a Yankee doodle shaven-headed YESSAH!!! US GI Joe for years. And made videos touting stuff that were so convincing that even I would have bought his insurance or whatever it was. Has he got sick and disgusted with the fabled "American way of life"? Has he gone crazy with religion? Why pick on new Orleans? They have some great pianists and about the only US food with anything resembling flavour. Why not Manhattan or Beverley Hills? I don't get it.
Syria Well I hope this new lot are better than Assad and the old lot. I hope they don't transform. I still remember how the friendly but fierce, commie-hating Mujahedeen freedom fighters in Afghanistan suddenly and shockingly turned their guns on us and transformed into the hated and feared Taliban terrorists. At least Assad is gone. When they make the film about all that's happened in Syria, Nicholas Lyndhurst is an absolute shoe-in for a leading role.

Seems to be a lot of change or potential change in power across the world . https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/clyjmy7vl64t
He seemed generally ok that Trudeau, but the people had enough of him and he had low approval ratings.
The treatment of the woman in Afghanistan The fire service s.hit show in California , who is in charge ?
...and just a thought .... If Sleepy Joe didn't spend all the dough on foreign wars D.E.I. and other wokery, then maybe , just maybe there would be enough to spend on , oh I don't know , dealing with wild fires . And as for the silence is violence mob who are silent over c**** r*** because they don't want to be seen as racist at woke dinner parties .
and to any poster who says "yeah, but what a bout" regarding grooming gangs How do you sleep at night ? . Serious question to the posters . The floor is yours ......
Please can we make sure to discuss such issues in a mature and sensible manner. If we are going to start baiting others using offensive terms to start an argument these posts will be removed.
Awww don't ban him please Skyla. This is the politics section. A bit of red blooded cut and thrust. The 'Truth Social' of WFC forums. Fair enough if it were in the football section, but we're all made of a bit sterner stuff in this corner. Nobody here is upset. In fact, he made 2 valid points I reckon. We could debate whether women are properly treated in any country. Or a minority maybe? If someone said for example that Jewish people are treated badly in Cuba, then fair enough we can have a debate about it. Similarly fires in LA and the fire brigade's handling of them is something else we could argue here I reckon. Just because it's in the bloomin' USA and affects rich people. What about if the fires were in the Philippines and I didn't reckon the brigade did a good job for whatever reason. Could we not discuss it? I don't know what "global language" is, but I reckon I might also be guilty of discussing these sorts of things here from time to time. It's when it gets to insulting people that you should step in imo.
Having discussed the matter with another moderator I admit I was a bit harsh so I've removed that comment but edited the parts of his two posts that should of been censored. Of course the Political section should be about more serious subjects but we do ask to discuss them as adults and not turn simple debates into flame wars.
Thanks for this @Clive_ofthe_Kremlin You may, IMO, post nonsense, but you are entitled to post your nonsense Others , don't want to hear my or anyone else's nonsense. That is my issue . So , all you fakes who are only only interested in how your "opinion" is received at middle class dinner parties . Do one . You fakes .
Hmmm but in the US it’s Congress (primarily the House) that holds the purse strings. Biden can only spend the money they legislate for. And not just a headline amount but the purpose it’s passed for too. That’s why while they’re all squabbling things like hurricane relief funds get held up for weeks on end.
He hates tables. Findus Crispy Pancakes eaten on your lap in front of Ant and Dec is de rigueur if you want to maintain your working class hero credentials. (He also loves spaces, and puts them into sentences wherever he feels the urge)
