That’s a shame the most popular attraction in France isn’t Paris. There are so many museums and culture there that it would take months (or years) to see them all. But I’ve read once that that Orlando (the city with Disney World) gets more annual visitors than Italy. Right now the rich Chinese are d...

worth watching over 30,000 Palestine's killed so far , 13,000 of them .....children https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_0atzea-mPY&ab_channel=AlJazeeraEnglish Still wondering; with Israelis superior intelligence agency , how could they not have any knowledge beforehand? Yes, it is Israel's fault t...

They need 212 pages for something they do in the US in 4 words: the war on terrorisme !! That’s like saying North Korea and Norway are both democracies. The only difference being one is a People’s democracy (and thus more pure) than a western democracy. Mainland China keeps shooting itself in the f...
