Germany's unforgivable crime before the Second World War was her attempt to extricate her economy from the world's trading system and to create her own exchange mechanism which would deny world finance its opportunity to profit.

mmmm hobnobs... thank you....mmmmm
got any beer?
Two questions maybe OT but i am not sure anything on this thread is On Topic at all but i cannot let it go by.
1) Why does every deluded idiot think he is speaking for Millions of like-minded clear thinkers?
2) Out of all the billions of people in the world how many ARE actually idiots and thus their behaviour is to be anticipated, expected and subsequently ignored?
can i has popcorn ?
cheers

I have worked in the Gocery industry for over 25 years, I have never seen that item before, it must be an English thing? We do sell however fish balls in a can. Just binged it, Bristish biscuits, never had one maybe I should try it. Is it better with beer or tea?

Interesting thread. I like Slaak. He does Gonzo almost as well as Hunter S. Thompson, and he makes hostiles of the right kind of people. Sometimes you just have to like a person for the enemies he makes.

Power to the Slaakman and everyone else who feels the Thought Police should all go take a flying f**k at the moon.

[:D]

P.S. Slaak. Not thermite. Thermite is basically just aluminum, iron oxide, and a combustion source. Sulfer doesn't enter the equation.

My home town in Iowa lost 60% of it's male population in the Civil War. W1, the civil war in the North at least is only felt if you go into museum's and look at statues dedicated to the people who lost their lives.


Same in New England. Drive through small towns in Ma, Vt, NH or Maine and *many* of them have public monuments in the form of statues of Union soldiers. Enough for someone to make a good photo book if they spent a summer and autumn just driving and shooting pix.

md,

Right. Its not thermite alone that was detected. It was thermate. Supposedly only the military uses thermate. Barium & sulfur were both detected in the rubble. Rather convenient that the debris was disposed of & sold to China before any detailed forensic analysis could be conducted too.

I'm stunned by your revelation, Slaak.

Who would have imagined that there'd be an aftermarket for used rubble in China? [:D]

"Gocery industry"

Did you need special training for that line of work?

You do know there is a secret government office which generates most conspiracy theories....don't you?
Everytime something is about to happen they generate "evidence" to link the CIA, Mossad,
the Grey Panthers, The Rosicrucians and many others to the event. If an event happens
by "accident" (as if, hahaha) they immediately contaminate anything they can get their
hands on with evidence incriminating anyone except them. That way everybody blames
the Scientoligists, the Roman Catholics or AA instead of the real culprits. This office is so old
it first appeared when Gronk saw Gorg and his partly-evolved monkey "buddy" whispering and gesturing at him.
It really spread through the world with the Boy Scout movement around the second last turn of the century.
Coincidentally right before WWI broke out and destroyed the old world order. We ALL know what
happened after that.

Yes. You have to go to college for four years and major in History with a minor in Geo. Once you do that. Apply in person. your hired. BTW my wife is a CPA, went to school for three and half years works 20 less hours a week than I do, and makes twice as much.
