    So, it's 1-1 in the drone wars?

    That ship has, apparently, 2,000 US marines aboard. Also today the US has demanded Iran return a UAE tanker it supposedly pinched.

    Since these Iran tensions flared up last month I've taken to sleeping under the bed rather than on it.

    It's made more uncomfortable as I wear a bicycle safety helmet.

    That sounds like a good strategy. I have been tunneling into a nearby mountain for the past 10 years

    Interesting!

    In Old Norse sources, beings described as trolls dwell in isolated rocks, mountains, or caves.... and are rarely helpful to human beings.

    Are these Iranian shenanigans a distraction from today's latest chapter in the Epstein saga, or are both distractions from something else about to go down the crapper such as Deutsche Bank being flushed?

    I've read flight logs indicate Bill Clinton visited Epstein's island honeytrap 26 or 28 times, his missus 4. Celebrity visitors included Madonna, Meryl Streep, Demi Moore and Steven Spielberg.

    That article was published four days ago. From it: 'Likely within days, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit will release almost 2,000 pages of documents...' Is this another psyop saga as with the 'sealed indictments' will be revealed 'soon' that's dragged on and on. I'm reminded of the poster still seen in some pubs that says free beer tomorrow.

    Maxwell was trying to stop the document release and they had to submit their reasons to the court before the 19th, which was Friday.

    Epstein case update - the Govt confirms the Epstein investigation involves other people not yet charged.

    "certain documents and materials that . . . would impede, if prematurely disclosed, the Govt's ongoing investigation of uncharged individuals."

    I have always reckoned that cock-up explains events more accurately than conspiracy.

    However, I may just be persuaded by life on mars that the 'horseshoe principle' applies here.

    The more 'they' conspire, the more likely they are to cock it up? Although I expect we'll have a different view on who 'they' are.

    'They' just have to include at the top the biggest names in banking who have the privilege of creating an infinite amount of currency out of nothing at virtually no cost to loan with interest attached. They have indebted every country on the planet for there is not one amongst the 200 or so which is a creditor nation. The US has a national debt of $22 trillion and is running a trillion dollar budget deficit every year. Their central bank, the Federal Reserve, is privately owned and no-one knows who its shareholders are. The US government borrows money from it at interest instead of creating and issuing debt-free currency itself. Amazing but true, and since its creation in 1913 it has never been independently audited. Which leads in nicely to one of my favourite quotes - “The one aim of these financiers is world control by the creation of inextinguishable debts.” Henry Ford (1932).

    I read somewhere yesterday that even Trump himself regretted on reflection the rally reaction and his part in it.

    If true someone check up on Wales Bales as his head will be in a right state working out how to react.

    It's not going well .

    See a second term ?..

    Trump latest alleged racist remarks, reminds me off a lot of lads pub /work chatter during Brexit where they couldn't eloquently describe their views about the impact on their communities of immigration , and the actions of second generations British citizens delivering terror on the very streets that has provided them and their families a better life when seeking asylum .

    It does seem immigration hatred and its impact ,racism , non inclusiveness is all around us .

    I know you're sensitive so I wouldn't normally say this, but what an absolutely bullshit take that is.

    No one can compare the US president publicly telling elected representatives to go back to the crime infested places they came from people talking in the pub about terrorists.

    I don't expect lifeonmars/walesbales/ronnie to, but surely everyone else can recognise that all this is potentially the beginning of a very dark chapter in America's history. We have to hope the worst doesn't happen from hereon.

    The " go home " rhetoric he spouts is everywhere , and I'm fully aware of the harm it will do there and here .

    It's not 'alleged' racism. This racism is smacking you in the face.

    In your opinion, and just for balance the United States House of Representatives disagrees with your opinion.

    I think he's deliberately provoking a democrat reaction in defence of these females ,who are pretty universally unpopular in the United States of America , thus associating the democrats with these unpopular creatures.
    You must understand that people in America are not yet conditioned to defend all Islamic stuff in the way that British people are.
