Yes, Mrs. Bhutto claimed several times in interviews, that Osama Bin Laden had been murdered in 2001. The problem is, OBL released a video of himself in 2004, talking about events that only happened....in 2004, as well as audio messages he released almost up until his real death. But of...

Let me guess, the Israeli commando raid in Entebbe, Uganda.....was also fake, yes? :azn: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Entebbe

It must have been quite the Hollywood production to have actually crashed a modified stealth tech helicopter in the exact compound in Abbottabad, that their movie "faked"....that fooled both Pakistani and Chinese officials into thinking it was real. "ISLAMABAD: Pakistan gave China access to the...

The thread title doesn't match the info in the OP. I have no doubt that the Russians hacked....but did it help Trump win? Nah. It was not the Russians that caused Pennsylvania, Ohio, Wisconsin, or Michigan to vote for him. It was decades of politicians in Washington that didn't give a crap...

Pretty much everyone in the State Department, Defence Department, and the "establishment" types in Congress. Could be. I have no idea how it will play out but one advantage Trump will have, is that his party controls both houses. Outside of a filibuster in the Senate, there is not much the...

The SEAL team member who killed bin Laden retired from the US Navy and revealed his identity. He came in for a good deal of criticism from other SEAL sailors and marines for doing so, but he gave several interviews describing in detail, what happened on that raid. Of course the conspiracy...

Could be. I just think it's funny, in a sad sort of way, that given the horrific press Mr. Putin gets in the US, and the years of an active campaign to paint Mr. Putin as 'public enemy, number one' by politicians of both political parties, that the American people still think our own lot has...

It's all relative though. Putin for example, was still more popular than Trump or Hillary Clinton. :D http://dailycaller.com/2016/05/25/poll-americans-like-vladimir-putin-more-than-clinton-trump/ As to Russia, the Gallup poll shows incredible volatility which tells me that American opinion is...

It's pretty easily found information, for example, in South Korea US total forces number 28,500 personnel of all branches of the military located, not on a 100+ bases....but on five bases. There may be a handful of troops located at some other facilities but they could hardly be called "US...

True that. :agree:

Btw, if anyone wants to know which organization has been most instrumental in bringing the Houbara bustard back from extinction, it's these guys, founded and funded, by falconers... International Fund for Houbara Conservation The World Wildlife Fund says this about them... "Due to efforts of...

Except I'm in Idaho and our deer season ended back in October. :sniper:

Which is true, but it is also misleading in a way. I hunt both big game, small game, and practice falconry, and like most hunters, I always enjoy getting a big stag, buck, etc., but I still use the meat, just as so called "trophy hunters" in Africa, or Pakistan, or Russia, will either use the...

On that score, we already have. The US only gets an average of 10% of it's oil from the Middle East, year to year. The overwhelming amount of oil we use or import, comes from either our own country or Canada. We have actually become a major exporter of energy; oil & natural gas, low-sulphur coal.

How sad. Condolences to the Egyptians on the board, for their country's loss.

It would take an extraordinary act of Congress to re-set an election date and it would be challenged in the courts. The US Constitution has very specific date requirements, that would have to be bypassed. We will no doubt, have closer ties to Russia in a Trump administration but we will...

My deepest condolences for the dead and wounded.

I think there is pretty credible evidence that Russia did intervene in this manner, in the US presidential election. I also don't think it changed the outcome, anymore than it would in Germany. I'm not upset about such hacking or cyber ops. My country has certainly intervened with it's...

I think it probably is about the same support or opposition to Trump. I'm sure though, that the American people don't feel the hostility toward Russia that some in the diplomatic and military establishment do.

I don't know how things will develop, really, but I think it is clear that the new president will significantly lesson differences and tensions with Russia.
