    The real shame about all the US riots atm is it takes all the heat and awareness off the Chicoms. It's like their get out of jail Free card for the china flu the deliberately released.
    Maybe they are the ones really behind all this trouble in the US and influencing the Violence with paid rioters?
    Who knows, nothing is beyond possibility these days and the more unlikely and conspiracy like it sounds, the better the coverup for those behind it.

    I have always seen Trump's attempts to be 'friends' with Russia as a very positive move. I was angered when Obama started a cold war with them which led to much closer ties between China and Russia.
    As long as the western world could treat Russia fairly and accept them as a partner in world matters and trade I would have far less concerns about China and the world could be a safer place.
    Currently a lot of work needs to be done there.

    Yes but only after he stuffed things up for them with his trade wars.

    That is his standard strategy, first wreck havoc and then pat himself on the shoulder for attempting to fix it.
    That might work well for his fans but China is not so dumb.

    For once I agreed with you and thought maybe you were going to take a more balanced position and get off the endless inane Trump sledging.
    If Russia will side with the west and come around as they have done in a lot of things, it will add great stability to the world. People bag the shit out of Putin too but I think he has also made a lot of progress with his country. Getting on better terms with the US was a great thing, maybe putin realised that they were allies once and did better as friends than they have as enemies and the whole antagonism was futile and pointless. Like Turmp, Putin has balls and loves his country dearly. They seem to put shit on him for that the same as they do trump or any other leader that doesen't bow to the softcokk mentality so many others are afflicted by.

    For a moment there was hope until dashed when you posted this:

    My stupidity for thinking that perhaps some rationality and balance could be seen by any trumpophobe.
    Putting shit on him no matter what is a religion to some.

    Politicians are politicians and they are what they are but they aren't all bad. I think endlessly sledging anyone no matter what they do is lame. Trump HAS done a lot for his country but to endlessly talk crap, overwhelmingly based on opinion and with a load of fake facts as is the case with so many to justify their blind and predictable position is as boring as it is laughable.

    I see the same thing here with the Labour Party.
    If the libs said it was hot today, they would hold a press conference trying to justify that 35oC is not hot , it's all the libs fault if it is and use the statement to grandstand and carry on about nothing. If the Libs said water is wet, they would argue with that too.

    Does more damage to them than the opposition they are trying to point scare against.
    The greens have another tactic. They just talk offensive shit to ensure they are hated by any and all people with a shred of decency and common sense.
    Can't wait to see how they get their indignant arses handed to them at the next election.

    Unless one can give credit where credit is due, their whole position is flawed no matter what it is completely devoid of any merit or credit.

    I think it's a pitty the democrap supporters can't be sent to their own little Island to be ruled by those they want and see how that turns out for them.
    Lets see how they go without Trump with the chinese and how their pathetic weak " Leaders' would fare. According to their agendas they would be happy to let the Chinese over run them with their borderless, everyone is wonderful, let them all in, softcock approach.

    The US and Russia should be grateful they have leaders that love their Country and will protect it from the Chinese threat unlike the Oz Gubbermints that seem hell bent on selling us out completely.
    How the Fk that belt and road thing can be allowed to continue is beyond me.

    Is it going to take US style riots before the Feds wake up this is NOT what Australians want and do something about protecting us from the chicom buy up, sell out.

    China and India’s tense border dispute: What’s behind the massive troop movements and war of words?
    India has vowed to “avenge the blood” of its soldiers in an increasingly tense border dispute with China, as troop movements build.

    Military leaders from China and India will hold talks today in a bid to de-escalate tensions between the two nations, which have both assembled a mass of troops along a long stretch of border.


    But neither side looks overly willing to backdown and uncertainty around what happens next is causing worry globally, thanks to the increasingly bitter rhetoric from Beijing and New Delhi.
    Cheers, Tiny

    yes, instead of trying to win friends & influence people, they have chosen the more controversial path of losing friends & infuriating people.

    Maybe India will take them on on the western side and the rest of the World will look after them eastern side. Yes bullies want to test how strong there are and I for one of sick of the Monkeys sick of them to the hilt.

    Lets just get more Indian students to study here, to replace those Chinese who believe it is now too dangerous to study in Australia.

    Offer them some discounts, especially for distance education.

    I find clothing manufactured and imported from India generally of higher quality than Chinese.

    We already have heaps of Indian Students here.
    Go to any flight school and see where the majority of their students come from.

    Indians are as big or bigger tightarses than Chinese.
    Chinese don't/ wont bargain nearly as much as Chinese. Indians will bore you shitless with their constant bargaining over petty purchases.

    If I see any Indian coming, I jack the price so they can bargain me down to what I charge everyone else. Problem is, you give them a discount and they keep going and going and still annoy the shit out of you.
    Their tactic is to ask the price, go away, come back, ask again, go away, come back and ask again hoping you will drop the price. If they come back the 3rd time and ask, I tell them Good news, I'm glad you came back, You'll be pleased to know the price is still the same as when you asked the other 2 Times and hasn't gone up.

    Sometimes I tell them a higher price and when they say you gave them a cheaper price before I pause, ask did I? and when they say Yes I say OK, I'll give it to you for that then. Will that be cash or card?
    That Fks them every time!


    Here's a Radical idea.... How about Australian Learning institutions concentrate on educating.... AUSTRALIANS to make our own country smarter and more capable of being self reliant?

    I don't know why every Aussie kid has to work with 14 at Maccas or Wollies for $10/h so they can get the latest iPhone and when they finish the private school that their parents had to scrape the butter off the bread to fund, it is gap year forever!

    I am seeing this so often it is becoming painful.

    Luckily I managed to get my to kids to listen to me when I told them that they have all their life ahead of them to become consumer idiots.
