Iraq was about keeping the muslim world busy the traditional way. By restarting the war between its two largest factions. Let them kick the fight out of each other for a century or two. It worked for Christianity. (100 years war, between the catholics and protestants. Only those remote to the fight, Irish/British, missed the point, they got it themselves, eventually.)
'Freedom of navigation' is not an excuse, it's a centuries old diplomatic principle.
It's still all colored by realpolitik. If the Chinese had a first rate navy things would be different. As it is, they are just posing for domestic consumption. It could all be different in 20 more years, but first the Chinese need to survive their economic bubble. I'm pretty confident that members of the Chinese central committee have real numbers in front of them and know they could be hanging from light posts in things go sideways.
If Russia's neighbors aren't so friendly, it might have something to do with the 20th century.
He's crazy, but will be out of office in a month.
Russians aren't suicidal, nukes aren't really on the table. They are much more likely to engineer an 'oil price shock event' in the middle east. If I was in charge of security at Saudi oil processing facilities, I'd double down for the next few years, perhaps triple down.
The problem is hiring. How do you hire competent IT people when the primary criteria is 'commitment to the cause' and the cause is fucking stupid and corrupt.
I'm sure there is a competent IT person working for the DNC. I'm also sure (s)he is 'on the outs' for breaking up the circle jerk.
A competent IT person would say 'there isn't any evidence the Ruskys did it'. Guess who's not going to be working for the DNC next week?
One of the consequences of working in a corrupt organization is corrupt hiring. I'm sure the person that setup the DNC's network intrusion detection machine (they have one right?) is very well connected and was well paid. It's sort of true, but (s)he showed up years after the machines were owned and told the DNC what they wanted to hear (the Ruskys did it). Security consultants...always remember at least 50% of consultants have only one skill, telling the client what they want to hear. I know, I've been a consultant.
It was a decent strategy. But the strategy was to stalemate the sunnis and shia, Iran/Iraq war style. Not let the shia win. As the Bush admin couldn't say that outloud the Obama admin apparently didn't understand and the Saudis got fixated on Yemen and are facing a cash flow crunch.
The D party as a whole has just progressed from Denial to Anger. Some are trying for bargaining, but soon find they have nothing to bargain with. They will get to acceptance eventually, but depression is going to last a while first. Poor babies.
The best data we have is Assange telling us where they got the emails from. We don't know for sure which DNC staffer it was, but we know it was a DNC staff member.
That the DNC killed Rich is unproven and, as yet, uninvestigated. Wait and see, I'll grant you it's unlikely there is a smoking gun, but the Ds were so overconfident this time they were sloppy. See also instigating violence at Trump events, they thought they were going to be running any investigations so didn't bother with decent cover stories, knowing that people in the sack for them would accept obvious nonsense.
They don't really know anything*. It's just posing for Hillary's supporters with CNN spending the _last_ of it's credibility.
The fact is the DNC server was owned many, many times. Anybody who claims to be able to tell you who owns a zombie computer based on its IP address is lying to you. Zombies are traded/stolen back and forth between hacker groups like nothing, just like hacking tools.
* actually we do know where the Wikileaks data came from, a DNC insider (almost certainly one who was subsequently murdered).
They gave large doses of Vitamin D to old men with early stage prostate cancer. To study how much it retards cancer growth (results were very statistically significant).
When you start with a population that is deficient it is ethical to only give supplements to half, until you prove the supplements do something.
Some black folks are stuck in the 1950s, don't encourage them. Obama did one very good thing, took away all black folk's excuse. It is _not_ impossible because they are black.
You will have to adjust for the population in the study being self selected from the better educated. The fact that no nation of islam members are in the study doesn't invalidate it though.
The NY TImes/Wash post will be running those stories in any case. But you're right, nobody pays any attention to them anymore.
If he prosecutes Hillary, it will be because he promised his voters. (The evidence is clear, already listed by her side, just the conclusion will change.) I'm hoping that the Clintons are pushed to the point they dump their blackmail material on the RNC and associates, then the big dirt dump starts.
Autism is unheard of anywhere people still struggle to survive, Eskimos never heard of it either. It's a collection of symptoms, in search of a common cause.
The rest of your rant hangs on this misconception.
It would be 'ethical' to find a population that's already deficient, then supplement half of them.
But now you need to study the rates within that group and have to use caution extrapolating to larger populations.
Test it with existing data. If it's true, populations more likely to be vitamin D deficient (darker skins at higher latitudes) will already have higher autism rates. Do black folks in Chicago have higher autism rates than in the south? (Where we know the population migrated from, mostly less than 100 years ago.)
Data will be called racist, so compare dark skinned folks at different latitudes.
The media reports repeating the WH press releases without question are without a doubt 'fake news'.
But _nobody_ believes CNN/ABC/NBC/CBS/NYTimes anymore. Those saying 'they believe' are just in on the lie, don't actually believe it for a second (which is required for 99% of the population to convincingly lie, lie to themselves first).
The current problem is no major news organization have any credibility left, they spent it all trying to get Hillary elected (to be fair, the ones on the right didn't have any public credibility in the first place). Now they are trying to discredit 'fake news' but they are so deep in a bubble they don't even hear themselves or the quiet laughter going on coast to coast. To understand the thinking of the average reported visit HuffingtonPost, they think that if they just get the narrative right, they can put things back as they were. Don't even realize that every time the pull another of the standard moves the lies just become that much more apparent. Soon even the Europeans will figure it out.
You can see it in the post so SJWs here. Now they all know they are lying, before there were true believers mixed in.
Half the US network's phones (Verizon, Sprint) won't work at all overseas as they are frequency locked. Most Verizon phones don't have SIMs anyhow.
A world phone works in the US on T-mobile and AT&T. Single SIM works well enough, unless you are crossing constantly, then you will wear out the SIM card hardware. Bet it's rated for 10 (ballpark) insert/remove cycles.
There is no chance Hillary survives four years of investigation by a R justice department as a viable candidate. She will be lucky and have to use all her and Bill's influence and blackmail material to stay out of prison.
But watch for Trump to really back off (as opposed to his current move to bluff Obama into not pardoning her), that's a sure tell that Trump is compromised by the Republicrats..
My optimistic but plausible hope is that Trump doesn't really care about the R power structure, threats to which have kept anything like Justice off the Clintons.
I'm fine with the Clintons dumping their dirt as well. That is the plan. Along with further counter dumps and at least three dead political dynasties (Bush, Clinton and Kennedy). Hillary wears orange though.

It's a public statement by the guy who got the emails. It's much more than CNN has to back the Obama admins story.

If he wasn't unhappy with the DNC, shame on him (and you too).
Are you saying 'Anybody I don't like is Hitler' is a good strategy?

Double down on 'Anybody I don't like is Hitler'. That's sure to work. After all every R candidate since Reagan has 'been Hitler'.
The fascist lost, get over it. You'll have another chance, but the SC is secure for at least another 30-40 years.

No arrests yet...Obama can still pardon the bitch.
Wait and see. It would be insane to move too early. Give Obama an excuse not to pardon her.

Sound's like it was a mistake to spend any money on this bad idea. Someone came to their senses and called bullshit.
downfitting Lotus bodies...MUCH slower than the original in anything but a drag race.
Like everybody else says, none. But none had the sense to open up 700 ponies and burn the tires off ether.
