Coordinated attacks ongoing in France

Robert, the shitfest in Iraq is all about the oil. Greenspan, the now retired PHD economist drum player for globalization, has admitted this.

If it was only about the moon and properly howling at it, there would be no issue.

Who would care about the middle East if there was no oil there ?

If you were starving, I'd not be surprised, nor judge you too badly, for accepting bread from those who hold your future between a snap of their thumb and forefinger.

Why don't you stop fuelling your car with petrol? I'm not saying that you should. I am asking you to think about where that oil comes from, how it is taken and secured, and why you consume it nonetheless (even having some joys when using it at times)?

Question: would this chaos have happened if the Bush/Cheney junta had not invaded Iraq?

2014 data shows Afghanistan's infant mortality to be abouts 115 children dieing per 1,000 live births. The US's is about 6 children die per 1,000 live births. That's one way to measure how your US Aid program is doing Bluering. Should we put some more money into it? Or should we pray more? Or prey less?

I say you should pay more for your oil. And for the jobs it creates, and the profits it makes, to be distributed more equitably.

And I think you should have incentives to live in a sustainable environment. Where you don't need to solo-self-drive so much. Where public transport is efficiently pleasant. Where you have a well built house with nice local amenity. And work hours that co-exist with your family and travel needs.

You're right Steve, no one ever f*#ked sh#t up for any reason other than, "We're killing you for your own good".

Fences can make for good neighbours. Though....when those fences divide people too much, they make for distrust. And people hate feeling distrusted. And people don't genuinely feel good, when they feel compelled to distrust others. So then, lots of blaming starts.

France sees lots of layers of division. The concentrated areas of degrading state housing and poor employment prospects are a big one. While multi-faceted approaches are needed, among it's own population, France needs to put more energy into finding jobs and improving living conditions for it's marginalised residents. And that requires a more equitable dividing of the pie, which is hard for others to swallow and accept.

What targets would you paint?

You are aware of the central role the Peshmerga (and other volunteers) have played in cutting-off ISIS around Mosul aren't you. Why don't you go fight there? 47 y.o. would be no barrier.

If I want to know the xenophobic, racial, and mysognistic opinions of my friends, I'd go to their NRA endorsing forums to see what they crankloon-on-about.

I have no solutions to terrorism

These attacks and murders, along with many others over the last several years in both the US and in Europe, are a direct result of a failure of political leadership in the western countries-- starting foremost with the hugely unfortunate election of Obama and the grovelling stupidity of the entire crop of socialist leaders in Europe , who take their orders from the big money in the back rooms of the EU.

The European people need to be armed in order to defend themselves going forward. No one else will do it for them. The political leadership in the west has grown unconcerned with the welfare of its people and have met the rising tide of murder and mayhem with weakness, accommodation , linguine spines, and corruption.

Christian Estrosi (Republicans) opposed since 2012 at the opening of the mosque of 950 m². It accuses him of being the property of the Minister of Islamic Affairs of Saudi Arabia, Sheikh Saleh Al Asheikh, minister " who advocates Sharia law in a state close Wahhabi religious Salafism ."

It also denounces the lack of transparency on the financing of the mosque completed in November 2012. This refutes the cultural association and worship Plain, mosque manager.

Nice town hall tries to transform the place in a crèche, a service called long by residents of surrounding neighborhoods. An investigation commissioner appointed by the town council had issued a favorable opinion on this expropriation.
