Re: October 7, film report from Aljazeera

If you were to tell the story of humanity to an alien race, much of it would involve conflicts, wars and genocides. It is undoubtably one of the fundamental aspects of our species. Whilst wars and conflicts may have become more regional over the past few decades, this is a blink of an eye in human h...

Re: VIDEO: Ship hits Keys Bridge in Maryland (USA)

Conspiracy theories are already abound across social media, with many saying that it lost power (at least the onboard electrical power as in lighting etc) before seemingly deliberately steering into the bridge - which is would need power to do. It seems strange that it only lost part of its power su...

Re: Terror strikes at a concert in Moscow

Very surprised they didn't take their own lives before they were caught. They must have known they would be in for a fate worse than death. Maybe they were man enough to point their guns at unarmed civilians and massacre them at point blank range, but not quite man enough to turn the rifle around, ...

Re: Barang punches female staff in the face @ Big Easy

That was a difficult watch. I can only assume there weren't that many Khmers around, or they would have intervened a lot sooner. I find that when there's a badly behaved foreigner picking on one of their own (male or female) they'll usually deal with the foreigner pretty swiftly, especially when it'...

Re: Spending $ in ABA

International monetary exchange is a very lucrative business. For some reason, money can't just go from point A to point B. It has to go through points C,D,E and F along the way, with each stop off point wanting to cream their slice off the top. It's one of the main reasons cryptocurrencies were cre...

Re: Please explain ?

Occam's Razor: The simplest explanation is most likely the correct one.

Re: Worth the death penalty?

You often hear people calling for the death penalty for a variety of reasons, usually for the most evil, heinous of crimes. I'm surprised that there is a country which regularly gives out the death penalty for freud. I don't believe in the death penalty for any reason. 1. Most civilised countries la...
