Goodbye, kind world (George Monbiot) - In common with all those generations which have contemplated catastrophe, we appear to be incapable of understanding what confronts us.

I believe in solving problems, not sharing them.

If a government is "populist", does that mean it reflects the will of the people? Because if it does, that means that the Greek PEOPLE are "crazy" and "far-left". Or is this a word that needs more careful definition?

Quote:do you remember what I've been saying all along about MH17 and the investigation?- SIGNY All of the RT talking points. Don't rush to judgement, consider all the other harebrained theories in Russian media, incriminating videos of Buks driving around don't count as evidence for some reason, wait for the report to be published (as if you'll accept its findings!!), etc etc
Quote:Let the investigation do its work- SIGNY Let a UN tribunal do its work as well - unless Putin has something to hide, in which case veto it.-KPO

Quote:Funny thing is, after MI6 did a chemical analysis of the sarin residue, western governmental voices have gone quiet - to the point of inaudibility- on the topic.
Quote: If OTOH the evidence is solid, then I'll accept it.
Quote:the problem with setting up a tribunal NOW - BEFORE the final report has been released...It's a matter of sequence

How did you know? Prior to Obamanomics, the trigger hit end of Jan. Sorry, I was running out of time. For the century prior to Obamanomics ruining the US Economy, there was an excellent triggering indicator for significant Bear market. I was highly interested in this during the late 80s and all of the 90s, since I wanted to know when to time the market to avoid Bear. I wanted to partake in Bull, and avoid Bear. Take the high market closing price of DJIA. Whenever a Bear market is about to hit, it will be predicated by a 15% drop from the high of the cycle. Then, at least historically, there will be a profit-taking bump, followed by the Bear. During the 80s, before the juggernaut of Reaganomics took full effect, DJIA was at 777. By early 2001 the DJIA had already hit a high of about 12,000. I think it was about April 2001 when the Dow dropped to about 10,200 - or at least 15% below it's high. I didn't notice until May or June, and at the time I had restrictions on my retirement account with something like a 2 month delay before interfund transfers could take effect. Plus I was away from home for a month, and my passwords were at home. However, I did inform friends and coworkers that a Bear market was imminent. Those that took my advice got out in July. My sellout took effect in August, with Dow still above 10,000. I forget how high the bump was, something like 8%, which I missed out on. By September 10th, Dow was dropping rapidly and under 10,000. Those who took my advice did not lose the 45% of their life's savings like most did. I got a lot of free dinners in 2002 and 03. In October 2007 the Rock the Vote Congress' first budget took effect, Dow peaked at 14,000. Ran out of time again. At the end of Jan 2008, like 28th or so, DJIA dropped to about 12,460 - or a 15% drop. Now, the concern for me was, this was now the era of computer trading, and programs. Previously the bump and subsequent Bear took months, but could this all happen in a matter of weeks or days? So I got out around 4 or 6 Feb, and missed out on the profits of 6-8% during Feb and March. So, me and the friends who listened to me in 2001 saved about 40% of our money (actually, we earned that 40% when we got back in at the bottom of Bear), and rode the wave from about 7,400 up to 14,000 - and then again saved in 2008 about 55% of our money, and again rode the wave from about 5 or 6,000 in 2009 up to, what, 17,000 now? But under Obamanomics, the market is no longer a US economy, and may never be again.

Quote:AFA what I said about sarin and the kind of evidence that is available, it wasn't from a blog, it comes from my experience working on a DoD project about detection of chemical weapons. AFA looking at evidence, I review detailed technical reports ALL of the time, and the most interesting (and dishonest) parts are the missing ones.

Your experience on a DoD project doesn't make you an impartial expert, it makes you a hyper-partisan amateur with a teensy bit of exposure. And I don't care how many technical reports you've read, I'll believe your critical reading skills when I see them. It's not personal. It's just war.

Quote:I think she (Hillary) might be violently insane. Like sometimes it just seems like there's a rage under the surface, and she also seems really dishonest. Not to mention a bit careless about some issues. She strikes me as an intelligent psychopath, one of the manipulative ones who has poor impulse control and a lack of humility or regret. I don't even think Benghazi was a thing, but I don't trust her at all. I think she's not-so-secretly racist against middle-eastern people and will start more wars than Trump ever would, and Trump's already a disaster that way.
