Thanks. I’ll be here all week.

That’s nice, but we really need to ship those batteries out to users for them to do any good.

“But public health experts say there are some adults who should consider getting revaccinated. That includes older adults who were born after 1957 and were vaccinated before 1968.”

“If you were vaccinated between 1968 and 1989, you likely received just one dose of the measles vaccine, instead of the two doses that are standard today. One dose alone is highly effective and for most people, it provides more than enough protection, says Dr. Adam Ratner, a pediatric infectious disease specialist in New York City and author of Booster Shots, a book on the history of measles.”

From an NPR article.

He had to get his bootlickers confirmed so he could have a faux meeting that gives the appearance he consulted other Americans to come to his decision and not just Putin.

Even reading the description for a while, I thought myopia was being used metaphorically.

I’m not one to defend communists, but Maduro is a socialist dictator.

Ukraine should offer to investigate the Bidens for return of Crimea.

Just for historical purposes, I guess.

With the need to reduce or eliminate reliance on the US for defense and an increasingly pugilistic Russia, perhaps the next move should be to start a massive scale-up of the German armed forces. This could also give a necessary boost to the economy.

While the scale-up is in progress, a non-aggression pact with Russia would be prudent. Germany could always turn on them when the time is right.

What?

Definitely include the term “patriot games” in any web search to hone in on the right results.

To be fair, Sean Bean was in a splinter group of the IRA, so not technically even N Ireland Sinn Fein.

I know that Wien has a long history with Turkish invasion, but you appear to be skirting the line for Islamophobia or just general Xenophobia. I’d rather not have you defending my comments here, as I think it muddies the water.

Yeah, seems like they would not be welcome there regardless. Ever since Sean Bean caused all that trouble for President H. Ford.

Much like Christian behavior has been modified over the centuries due to constraints from society, I think Muslim behavior has been modified in many nations. There is enough open to interpretation in holy books that you can still be “devoted” and not push for enforcement. Even some majority-Muslim countries that have strict rules for Muslims do not enforce the same rules on people of other faiths.

So while I appreciate that the “Islamophobia” accusation doesn’t hold water, I think you cast too wide a net even on devout Muslims.

He went full Nazi, man. Never go full Nazi.

Not the case. I understand that the vast majority of Muslims have no desire to murder infidels or apostates. However, it would be ignorant to deny that there are extremist groups who use the religion to justify violence against Christians, Jews, Druze, Hindus, and other Muslim sect. Maybe their leaders are just using religion as a tool for their political aims, but probably some of them are ardent believers too.

What’s your personal stance on that?

Edit: Argh. I now know what it would feel like to be retweeted by Steve Bannon.

I was going to make a poor taste joke that obviously this is a lie by the IDF, since there seems to be a cadre of posters here who can’t accept that any bad behavior by a person in the name of Islam is [anything other than] just Western or Zionist propaganda.

I see others have beat me to the idea.

Edited after technocrit’s response because a re-read showed my meaning was reversed.

I assume all of Kursk belongs to Ukraine now, based on this logic. Too bad it’s not worth anything.
