"Put Britain First" - Right Wing Extremism on the rise
-TSS- replied to Hudson Jones's topic in The Rest of the World
Some people say that the murder may swing the referendum for the remain-side. How fickle can people be if that is the case? Even in Sweden the murder of the foreign minister in the middle of a heated euro-referendum campaign didn't change the outcome of the vote when the Swedes overwhelmingly rejected the single currency. -
"Put Britain First" - Right Wing Extremism on the rise
-TSS- replied to Hudson Jones's topic in The Rest of the World
Doesn't anyone notice any double standards regarding this news-story as compared to the reporting of the Orlando-massacre? -
They seem to be holding on to the lone wolf-theory even though there is a lot to suggest that was not the case.

I'd also rather have Slovakia and Germany instead of those compilation-teams.

Tighter gun-laws wouldn't have helped in this case because he had access to guns through his job anyway.

Presidential 2016: A New Paradigm?

The losing candidate may have to go into exile or prison depending on which one of them loses. -
Athletics is the only interesting event at the summer-olympics.

It speaks volumes that it has been speculated that if she has to withdraw not even then there couldn't be Sanders but instead people are coming up with nonsense such as Biden being nominated as a dark horse.

Could Hillary still be toppled by the email-gate?

Japan's Support for Israel Growing

Japan is a very isolationist country. -
Where have you travelled (going to travel) open thread

Canada is such a vast country that I guess it is by no means uncommon that someone from Toronto has never been to Vancouver, or vice versa. -
I understand that the intention is to start playing this tournament a bit more regularly than every 12 years, once every 4 years perhaps and the next time the tournament is going to be arranged there are proper countries filling the spots of the 7th and the 8th teams.
-
Russia has announced that the KHL will not take a break during the tournament. Does that then mean that they are going to send a second class team to the tournament. To me that kind of seems like they are scared of having their asses kicked by the Canadians again and are resorting to the obvious excuse; not having the best team in the tournament.
-
How seriously do you Canadians take this tournament: http://www.nhl.com/ice/eventhome.htm?location=/worldcup/2016 In my opinion the old Canada-cup should be resurrected. In that world cup those compilation teams are just rubbish.
-
Me too. Or is the current seemingly uncontrollable invasion into Europe another Zionist conspiracy as some quarters have suggested? Nah, I don't think so. On the other hand, it is perfectly possible.

Perhaps you're right. I was thinking more of the summer olympics which have grown in size over the years.
-
The world cup probably was profitable but Brazil being Brazil that money has gone into better pockets. With olympics it's the same story every time; an economic disaster for the host-country and the city. Only the 1996 Atlanta olympics came clean economically but those games are remembered as probably the most soulless sporting-event imaginable.

If you use the word assasination when killing somebody don't you then elevate that person to a position of importance?

FPTO-system works when the combined vote of the two largest parties is over 90%. When below that it becomes capricious. In Britain there have been elections where the largest party has received 35% of the votes and that has translated into 55% of the seats. That is hardly representative.

Russians meddling in Chechnya is another example.

He's a jackass but what does his success tell you about the republican voters or more importantly the quality of his opponents? I feel a bit sorry for Jeb Bush because, unlike his brother, he's a smart guy but people justifiably decided that enough with Bushes.

It seems that any thinkable Democrat-candidate has a good chance of beating Trump, anyone except Hillary, but yet the Democrat-voters cling onto Hillary. If the current e-mail scandal crushes her dreams of becoming a nominee it could be a blessing in disguise for the Democrats as it seems that people in large don't want Trump but they want Hillary even less.

It would be a nice turn of events but he's too old.

We in Finland get told time again that we are such a sparsely populated country that we can afford to accept new people living here. Let's look at that claim closer; About 40% of the world's resident population north of the 60th degree latitude are Finns. The population in Canada in corresponding latitudes is tens of thousands, in Finland it is 5.5m. Simply speaking living this north is simply unecological. The sheer survival is unecological and in order to maintain a high standard of living is bordering on environmental crime. If I were a dictator of the world I would simply ban people living in places such as Finland because of its wastefulness. Ok, perhaps I wouldn't be that harsh on people who were born in such places such as Finns or the Inuits but moving from a more temperate climate north of the 60th would be an absolute no-no. It never ceases to astonish me how the Green Party who are supposedly environmentalists are in favour of importing people from countries of better conditions for human inhabitation to move into Finland. If they were logical they would be anti-immigration as hell but they aren't logical. Last year we had 35,000 Iraqis moving to Finland. That just doesn't make any sense. People in the present-day Iraq were living in houses and farming land when people in Finland were living in trees and starved and froze to death. I'm glad to say that soon our welfare-state will collapse and most of the people who don't belong here will pack their bags and move elsewhere and as the Finnish society will also collapse most Finns with means and opportunities to move will follow. Mark my words; in the 2020's the news you will hear about Finland will not be about hockey but about mass-poverty, civil unrest, state of emergency and a collapsed society.
