Isn't what you wrote literally a contradiction in terms?

Can someone translate what is shown in the picture please?

Exactly?

Can someone explain to me why is Greece thought to try and block the TN if it goes to Libya?

Discerning the "truth" in situations like these (where contrarian ideological, political and economical interests clash) borders on the impossible. It is possible to use multiple sources to piece together the puzzle, but history has shown us that you need a good 50 years of separation (and some...

So, are you essentially promoting genocide here? Maybe I'm getting something wrong, I'm guessing you didn't really mean that.

Well yes, that is a given. I'm starting to think though that the American public "needed" something to take their minds away from the impeachment hearings.

This is a very big decapitation strike. Why would the US escalate so much at this juncture?

I mean, it's not like you cannot google it.. Data from official Chinese sources reported that the PVA had suffered 114,000 battle deaths, 34,000 non-battle deaths, 340,000 wounded, and 7,600 missing during the war. 7,110 Chinese POWs were repatriated to China. In 2010, the Chinese government...

This is one of the weirdest extortion rackets I've ever read about! :hitwall:
