July 1940 "Hitler offers Britain 'peace or destruction' BERLIN, July 19, 1940 (UP) -- Adolf Hitler today addressed an "appeal to reason" to Great Britain to avert "destruction of a great world empire," but he made it clear that rejection would mean an attack with all of the forces at the command of the Axis powers. "In this hour and before this body," the Nazi Fuehrer told the German Reichstag in the presence of Italian Foreign Minister Count Galeazzo Ciano, "I feel myself obliged to make one more appeal to reason to England." "I do this not as a victor, but for the triumph of common sense." Without delivering any ultimatum, Hitler said that it had never been on his desire or his aim to destroy the British Empire. The Fuehrer warned against interpreting his appeal as weakness and said that "Churchill may parry my words with the claim that I feel doubt or fear, but in any case I will have my knowledge that I acted rightly, according to my conscience."" www.upi.com/Archives/1940/07/19/Hitler-offers-Britain-peace-or-destruction/6824181303557/Hitler was advised Britain would not go to war over Poland. When we did he asked those advisors. "Now what do we do?" |

Surely any country that hasn't b ad the shit kicked out of it due to endless wars would be better. According to him the issue is the clan wars going on. Basically civil war north vs south type thing. He made me laugh. KFC. The sign looks identical to the KFC we all know except it's Kabul Fried Chicken over there. What the Americans did to that country is a disgrace, what Pakistan is doing to it now is a bigger disgrace. Uncle Sam appointed a puppet president the despicable and thoroughly corrupt Karzai. 16 years later and the "poppy fields" are still in production, I wonder why. Karazi was an ex employee of Unocal, yes the same Unocal who invited the leaders of terrorist group called the Taliban to Texas for a good ole boys BBQ, funny that innit ? This was never reported in the US rags, but on the BBC, before it became the Bombay Broardcasting Corparation, and jouros had a bit of integrity and actually reported real news, not the leftist marxist sh&t they report now |

Oh, by the way, on Aug. 21, a solar eclipse will cut across the entire United States. This has nothing to do with NK and little Kim. It's just another type of 'the end is near'  |

... clearly the Sun Eclipse is a warning as on October 12th a house-sized asteroid is sizzling past us assuming there's no typo or misplaced comma/dot in the calculation. A slight margin of error will wreck havoc on our satellite based communication (no internet?), a slightly bigger margin of error and we have another Barringer Crater or another attraction near a Trump Golf course "A house-sized asteroid will shave past our planet on 12 October, far inside the Moon’s orbit but without posing any threat, astronomers have said. The space rock will zoom by harmlessly at a distance of about 27,300 miles (44,000km ) – an eighth of the distance from the Earth to the Moon, according to the European Space Agency. It is outside the roughly 36,000km orbit of geostationary satellites. “ We know for sure that there is no possibility for this object to hit the Earth,” Detlef Koschny of ESA’s near-Earth objects research team told AFP. “There is no danger whatsoever.”" www.theguardian.com/science/2017/aug/11/close-encounter-asteroid-2012-tc4-size-of-a-house-near-miss-with-earth |

But if it should and we could choose, who would we prefer it lands on, Trump or Kim, I'm unable to decide but suspect Trump would be my choice.

I have changed my mind about him since I found that he was upset in his Austalian Phone call with the Australian PM lauding its treatment of boat people and their confinement in Nauru and PNG...that was the reason for it being cut short.

A little known fact - the IRS changed the tax laws to where non-resident Green Card holders cannot claim any exemptions or personal allowance, this has the effect of increasing their US tax from 1% to 24.5%. Who are the people who are affected? They are people who moved to live in the US, legally, people who worked and paid taxes and paid Social Security for many years. Then, after at least ten years some of those people moved elsewhere and relinquished their US Green Cards and ultimately retired. As those retirees begin to claim their US SSc retirement they find that tax equal to 24.5% has been withheld at source and unless they live in a country that has a tax treaty with the US, that tax cannot be reclaimed. It's only fair they pay tax I hear you say, hmmm really? It would be fair if US resident green card holders were subject to the same rules but they are not, in essence this is a soft target tax that is a penalty for not living in the US, even though all ax and SSc contributions were paid. And most of the people who are affected are low income foreign nationals, those who have worked away for many years and later returned to retire with their extended family, an easy tax on the poor......AND ME!

From a deputy assistant to and ardent admirer of Pres. Trump. They're really spoilt for war against a small country. "Earlier in the week, Gorka appeared on Fox News to expound on America’s military might, hyperbolic describing the nation as no longer a “superpower” but a “hyper-power”. “We are now a hyper-power. Nobody in the world, especially not North Korea, comes close to challenging our military capabilities,” he said. “Whether they are conventional, whether they are nuclear or whether they are special forces. The message is very clear: don’t test this White House, Pyongyang.”" www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/aug/11/donald-trump-loyalists-respond-message-north-korea |

I think the war has started, but only in America "The full memo, dated May 2017, is titled "POTUS & Political Warfare." It provides a sweeping, if at times conspiratorial, view of what it describes as a multi-pronged attack on the Trump White House. Trump is being attacked, the memo says, because he represents "an existential threat to cultural Marxist memes that dominate the prevailing cultural narrative." Those threatened by Trump include "'deep state' actors, globalists, bankers, Islamists, and establishment Republicans."" amp.businessinsider.com/heres-the-memo-that-blew-up-the-national-security-council-2017-8 |

Maybe something lost in translation, maybe the Germans just (want to) show having a sense of humour "Xi Jinping zu Trump - „Relevante Seite" muss sich zurückhalten" Xi telling Trump 'the relevant side should show constraint' |

Now Trump has announced he's ready for war if they fire 1 more missile.
The bit that scares me is China has said it's not gonna happen Donald.
Trump had also asked to speak to the Thai PM.Im hoping it's about how to make the perfect phad phuk but I doubt it
