The Official Politics Thread (enter at your own risk)

[Come On You Irons]

There. Resident WHO political commentators and gurus can knock yourselves out in here and conduct your endless bickering. All other threads will be locked.

I have no axe to grind with either Ox or XK but fuck me, can't a day go by without the same accusations and insults being traded?

I reckon they must be best mates away from here and have concocted a routine to see how much they can bore/ piss off the rest of us.
There can be no other explanation as to why two adults would keep this up day after day, going round in the same circles.
Would be so easy to ignore one another or communicate privately but they seem determined to play this nonsense out in full view of the rest of us.
Very fucking odd.

Who said we was adults?

The raspberries you raped in Cambodia certainly weren't.

Trump invades Venezuela & kidnaps their oil … I mean President … & Starmer the KC can’t say if that’s in breach of international law
View must be difficult with your head up Trumps arse

Greenland next
Obviously part of a Carrick deal with Putin 
We will let you invade Ukraine & take their resources & you let us take Venezuela 

[Mike Oxsaw]

So Trump is now setting his sights on annexing Greenland next.

I'm no lefty, but Trump's behaviour is becoming very unhinged to me. It's concerning that he wants to annex a part of sovereign European territory. He's no better than Putin if he does.

If Trump's got any sense (which I seriously doubt) he'll do a "Hong Kong" on Greenland, leasing just enough to build a couple of fuck-off airfields and deep water harbours.

He knows money talks and will use that as a leverage.

Australia is fucked Sydney. Let in to many undesirables who jump up and down when an incident occurs in their mother country. You should have gone down and give them a good kicking. 

[Sydney_Iron]

Made me laugh watching Aussie news and they covered some protesters at Sydney's Town Hall against the American strikes and abductions in Venezuela, strange thing was that most of them had keffiyeh's? , I didn't realise that they wore these in Venezuela...................

They also had a counter protest that supported what occurred, so Police kept the 2 sides apart, these people were chanting in Spanish and had Venezuelan shirts and flags, none of which the other side had!!!Do these extreme lefties types realise how stupid they look by doing this?

In that case, its way past your bedtime!

Is that the same way you feel about the mud hut in the poverty stricken village near the Cambodian border now a few bombs and missiles flying around? 

Why would it not be?

Well could be a bit dodgy for an old creepy trannie raspberry like you,l mean the risk of your wheelchair going over a landmine or a missile taking out your mud hut
I'm concerned for you

No need to project the fact that you'd be shit scared living in such a volatile area. You should visit, find out for yourself what it's like rather than relying on the Daily Mail educating you. You may actually get to meet a real-life ladyboy, too. What's not to like?

My village is only 80 minutes drive from the (currently closed) Cambodian border and certainly well within range of their rockets. Ho-Hum, as they say.

None of their mine-laying teams have ventured this far yet, although there was a drone incident at the local airport the other night. Hasn't stopped the regular flights to/from Bangkok though, and the new airport terminal opens in about 6 weeks.

In fact, apart from a swathe of new buildings appearing, it's still as a peaceful place to be as it was the last time I was here.

Dodgy? Not a bit of it. Fun? 100%.

A bad decision is far better than no decision.

When a bad decision is made then it needs effort to correct it. With no decision it's simply more of the same shit.

Trump's escapades into Venezuela may be good decisions, they may be bad decisions but just because it's Trump making those decisions doesn't automatically make them bad.

There may be indignation and a few ruffled feathers over this, but the dust needs to be allowed to settle in order for everybody to have the chance to see a clearer picture (if they want).

The left every time an evil dictator is removed: Ooh! My knickers are wet. It's all about the oil, you know...

 

I'm not a leftie and agree the loony left do wet their knickers and are proper two faced,but come on this is about oil
MADuro was definitely smuggling drugs into US,but only about 10% of total entering the US,so why doesn't he go after Mexico and Colombia where most of it comes from?

Trump pardoned the president of Honduras, one year into a 45 year sentence for drugs, so it's certainly not about that 

 

 

That's a good point l forgot about that

I'm pleased that scumbag MADuro has been removed,but wish Trump would just for once be honest 
This isn't about regime change or democracy its about oil and sending a message to Iran

yes its partly about oil. Its about stopping regimes like Iran, Russia, Cuba, China getting their hands on discounted oil. The US companies will rebuild the infrastructure that will take decades and will restore Venenzuela as a prosperous country and a global supplier of oil.

That FIFA Peace prize looking good 

Venezuela invaded & President seized
Greenland threatened with seizure
Canada threatened with being made a US state
Nigeria bombed 
Iran threatened 
Russia v Ukraine still ongoing 
Israel v Gaza still ongoing

Can anyone tell me what the fuck the possession of machine guns charges, against Maduro, are all about? I'd have thought it would be practically compulsorary for any world leader to be able to get their hands on those and aren't the gun laws in the USA so lax that practically anyone can own them, anyway?

Nope. The sale of new machine guns to civilians (or any weapon that can fire like a machine gun) has been banned since the mid 80's in the USA. Second hand ones, can be bought from an existing owner ( a transferable weapon), but this is heavily regulated by the ATF. Probably the only reason machine guns aren't used in high school shootings.

Semi automatic pistols and assault rifles cause enough carnage and are readily available.

That General Raizin Caine is one seriously impressive cսnt. He would make a good President one day with his track record, across the detail and handles himself very well. He doesn't fuck about on a mission either.
