I always read this thread but very rarely post as politics in the main has almost zero interest for me anymore but this is so spot on D, oh the hypocrisy is so staggering.I think it hilarious that the Americans are going on about interference in their election. This must be the best example of the pot calling the kettle black I have ever heard. I know that the American Left need an excuse that Bill Clinton's wife lost to Trump (F... me) but complaining that someone interfered in our election.
This is by far the funniest political thingo I have ever heard. The Americans have been interfering in elections for years. Imposing elections on countries that are not ready for one.
I wish I could construct one of those things I see on the net with flashing bits, showing all the elections that the Yanks have poisoned with Bill Clinton's wife, or any American left person, complaining.

Not really interested in getting into a debate about politics TBD, I don't have the knowledge any longer, lost any sort of deep interest in it decades ago.Is it? Maybe if you wrap every American up under the banner of “America” and assume that they all hold singular, consistent beliefs about what is right and wrong, and that they automatically endorse everything their country has done in its history.
It’s really two separate issues. Do we really think that the large number Americans who are concerned and angry about blatant foreign interference in their democratic process should be precluded from feeling that way because of the foreign policy interferences previous administrations made into other countries?
Are they just expected to go “ah well, Reagan did worse s**t in Latin America and the Middle East... it’s our turn to cop it now”?
Mixed feelings. On the one hand, he’s been terrible. On the second hand, der Kartoffelkopfführer could only be worse. On the third hand, despite the Tory media hype, governments never win by-elections except for that one time where the guy came out against the British Empire back when that was a lot more no-go and are the results really that surprising? On the fourth hand, the Tory media did hype it, Turnbull made them a leadership referendum and his colleagues are mostly nuts. On the fifth hand, I’ve got way too many arms atm.Turnbull is cooked.
Will be knifed before the election.

Followed by the sheer opportunistic hypocrisy of far too many.Good response by the majority of the senate though.
Kinda surprised to not see it here at all

So what are people's thoughts? What happens to the long suffering camps that have been integrated and turned into living spaces when they're told they're no longer welcome?
South Africa would've wished it had this kind on publicity. Their objections were far more valid too.
Just nuke Israel. s**t people and a s**t country.Kinda surprised to not see it here at all

Pieter Willem Netanyahu and those supporting him can go piss off though.
Well...There is still a problem assimilating the lost tribes of Israel...Populations from the “Lost Tribes” have been discovered and verified in surprising places all around the world, including China, Ethiopia, India, Zimbabwe, Somaliland, Afghanistan, Nigeria and other locations.

I'm completely ignoring Sizey's comments here because they were a blatant s**t-stir, but aren't all the evangelicals pro-Israel because of prophecies in Revelations about their return to the holy land signalling the second coming of Jesus and the end of the world? They are probably anti-Semetic, but they are definitely pro-rapture.
Oh yeah, they definitely want a populous and prosperous Israel right now. The trouble is what they believe happens next, generally the complete (and probably nuclear) destruction of Israel. Many of them speak gleefully about this (inc. the preachers Trump sent to celebrating the embassy move, for example). So they're "not antisemitic", they're just looking rapturously forward towards everyone is Israel being killed.I'm completely ignoring Sizey's comments here because they were a blatant s**t-stir, but aren't all the evangelicals pro-Israel because of prophecies in Revelations about their return to the holy land signalling the second coming of Jesus and the end of the world?

Trump is having a baaaaaad day.
Closer to home, ugh, Dutton. God help us. Wouldn’t Bishop or Morrison be more electable?
