Is America Taking Us To War


Recommended Posts

It’s all geopolitics, always has been, always will be. 
War is good for business... Now would be a good time to get on a trading app and lump on to arms companies. [emoji185]
War, or even the threat of war, is also enough to make the gullible population believe that we actually need a government to protect us. 
In reality, most things can be / are run privately, without much need for government influence. The only thing they really do is select where money is allocated and arrange for your bins to be collected.
A full government shut down could happen (like it did in America recently over Trump’s wall) and we could probably get on reasonably if we all made the effort as a population.
Exactly as George Orwell pointed out in 1948 when he wrote 1984!

Can you believe that double plus good book is 71 years old?

Tremendous book. Should be compulsory in schools (it’s not, for obvious reasons)

America drone shoot down by Iran. Iran saying it was in their air space.  While America said it was in International waters.  
Expect more of this nonsense. Similar to the royal navy rib incident a few years ago.

Tough shit. For what reason does an American drone need to be in the Middle East? f**k em.

I don’t believe Trump has to do much to win the 2020 elections, the Democrats are giving him all the help he needs.

 

If the Dems fix their elections so Hilary wins again, then it’s a walkover for Trump and a second straight term.

Apparently quite a few of the Democratic hopefuls are out-polling Trump in opinion polls at the moment.

Bernie Sanders was outpolling Trump as well.

Unfortunately the DNC had no intention of letting Sanders get near that leadership position.

contact was made outside the box, however the attacker came to ground on the line.

Seriously though, how are the iranians meant to differentiate between an armed and an unarmed drone?  The US are on a fishing mission and it's a high stakes game.  They are trying to look tough without being seen as an all out aggressor, but they forget that all the other shit they pull with Iran, and several other countries for that matter, get's taken into account when someone decides if they need to take action.

The fool from Arbroath speaks. 

Some of us have a life away from the TV and Internet. Great walk with friends this morning. New experience in going to the K Stadium. Saw two teams giving their all and a keeper in great form. 

Well worth the money. 

Back to the news. 

Some diplomacy needed.
