If thou gazest long into the Pit, the Pit will also gaze into thee

You are mixing up my past comments about American internal culture with your geopolitical brand. You're the one who posted mismatched sentiments. I tried to sort it out for ya... and you just replied with 2 more mix-ups. You don't like the 'geopolitical brand'. fine. I don't either. Fortunately, ou...

Oh. And while you are at it. Spare us the mucho every real American is an AR wielding principle driven Shane looking out for the homesteaders. And spare us the wet dream Hollywood crap.

Because it’s clearly delusional fantasy.

No the context I referring to was me bagging out the use of ARs to offset small dick syndrome. If Putin secures his ethnic and political goals at the West’s expense then China will do the exact same with Taiwan. And the American age will be over. Maybe that’s your passive defeatist plan. I can’t be...

If America expects the respect it demands from the world, it had better earn it. And not get it’s arse kicked by Putin and Xi. Someone here once told me to tug my forelock to Uncle Sam because no one else was going to defend Australia from China. I wouldn’t bet an after tax cent that the States wou...

No one wants WW3. But no one (sensible) now thinks waiting for Sept 1939 was a sound strategy for the 1930s. Sometimes you don’t get a say in what circumstances are handed to you. There were lots of ways to have prevented this war (though I am convinced that Biden, Inc. badly wanted it.) There are ...

OMG

Someone here once told me to tug my forelock to Uncle Sam because no one else was going to defend Australia from China. Are you sure that your retelling matches the actual exchange? I may be be thinking of a different conversation (heck, I may be thinking of a kiwi complaining about US influence in...

Bummer. 🏏 😞

On a related note. I feel I’m the only person in the world to remember Garth Le Roux and the ‘World 11’ in WSC.

We don't know why their fancy aircraft are mostly grounded. Is anyone speculating--- that it might-be to avoid a no-fly zone being-imposed? Not that I have seen. Ever wondered how a country with an economy the size of Italy manages to maintain such a large arsenal of sophisticated aircraft and weap...

Today's Ukraine update. Not promising. https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/ukraine-conflict-assessment-13 DraftUkraineCoTMarch2,2022_0.png I don’t think a stalemate or Russian defeat are options. But it’s a victory of sorts that no major border city has fallen yet and Kiev is forcing reac...

I hear Biden has promised that a surrounded Kiev can be supplied from the air until it’s relieved by the Poles.

I may have some details wrong here.

Ukrainian resistance is beginning to collapse. Following another day or two of bombardment, the Russians will advance on all axes. Kiev will be surrounded. Will Zelensky stay, or continue to fight from Lvov? The opportunity to broker a peace has passed. Putin will achieve most of his goals. Ron Kla...

More than likely. Been trying to get a handle on Putin an...

This dude is apparently a major Russian military expert and is worth following.

The Russian military has likely recognized that its initial expectations that limited Russian attacks would cause the collapse of Ukrainian resistance have failed and is recalibrating accordingly. The Russian military is moving additional combat resources toward Ukraine and establishing more reliab...

Interesting read on the Russian road to 2022.

Metaphor for today

Pity there’s nothing more interesting to talk about. Well, at the risk of dragging things down to sewer levels...

Pity there’s nothing more interesting to talk about.

Can't say I've ever noticed this before.

I guess last time NATO was on the Dnieper, things didn't work out so well either.

It's sad we are not getting CFB and Kirb's informed opinion on how Biden was embarrassed by the southern border, Afghanistan and Ukraine is under 18mths.

Without so much as the excuse of being the puppet of his respective Masters. And all this while discounting 'Bi-flation'.

Jesus Christ.

China and now Russia have demonstrated the fragility of liberal-globalism and the primacy of focused nationalism. Pity the lesson had to come from them. And pity the first victim was a smaller country espousing similar values. Back in 2014 and In another universe, NATO would have either rushed Ukrai...

Well?

Weird

"high energy LOW nutritional value"

Grain and cereal doesn't impress me much. Firstly most of it is refined - even so call 'whole-grain'. So it starts compromised - high energy nutritional value. Secondly it laces everything (like sugar) - we eat way too much of the crap. Thirdly, as a starch, even at best its just more sugar. The rar...

Our prime minister- I don’t fear his evil brilliance

GD govt never stops telling us what to do.

This may be the channel you’re looking for.

Meh. It addition to having an accident is somehow getting lost and then eventually dying or having a follow up accident. The lack of notes etc mitigated against them being hale and hearty stuck in the Bush. And the terrain precludes random wandering a la AT.

I think you are overstating the alleged lack of evidence. Yes there's gaps. But there's also a shed load of data sifted through by the Dutch - where this was a VERY high profile case. I think fafnir's point was that the press do a shitty job presenting the details of cases like these, omitting impo...

Re the phones and GSM. I’m not sure how well an iPhone 4 records GPS out of range, mostly turned off and in an area described as “cloud mountains”. The Samsung was of similar vintage. I would be surprised it didn't at least record something when it first established it's location after being switch...

For the first time ever, I feel 🇦🇺 is more likely to cope a nuke in the foreseeable future than either Germany or the UK.
