  1. If simply knowing was enough for complicity, then every German over the age of 12 at the time should also be charged. Surely the issue was, could she do anything about it? Now when will the charges for Palestine begin?

  2. I think people respond to authenticity and true craftsmanship in a superficial, fake, made in China world.

  3. "Unconventional" - She's a gold digger and he's a psychopath.

  4. "We weren't really friends" which is why I felt honor bound to fly to New York to tell him our non friendship was over. "I was concerned about appearances" which is why I stayed at his house for 4 days. Sounds to me as though Andy wanted to go out on one final bender before it became impossible. "I have no recollection of meeting her" is exactly what people say when they are fearful that evidence will emerge showing them with someone. The internet is not the problem son: the internet has simply democratised news so that cases such as yours don't hide under the radar.

  5. Excellent news. Now if the US can start their own impeachment against Trump, and Russia and North Korea can take out their leaders, some level of sanity and peace can resume.

  6. Oh pleeeease lock him up in the Tower of London now.

  7. Her apology was a typical non apology "I'm sorry for the pain you EXPERIENCED" as though it just happened independent of her , not "the pain I CAUSED." Even now trying to distance herself from what she did.

  8. The long-term issue should not be WHERE we dump, but that everything is made with short term, built-in obsolescence simply to maintain corporate profits. I am surprised though - I would not have thought it that easy OR financial viable to sneak entire containers of low value waste out to Romania.

  9. Hard to feel any animosity towards them after the way Palestine has been treated by the criminal nation of Israel.

  10. So now Carrie has two males in her life that can't brush their own hair.

  11.  @grittychops6755  But a person with the user name "gritty chops" has seen through the deception right? 🤣🤣🤣
    77
  12. Throwing rocks at the people you're hoping will welcome you. Smart thinking. Time for Poland to defend itself with greater force.
    77
  13. What a bunch of idiots. The last thing the world needs is MORE moronic magical thinking.
    76
  14. The casual disregard for human life was and still is despicable. I don't believe in hell, but if I did, the men who sent (and continue) so many millions to die in wars over greed, ego, bigotry and power would have a special place there. All that suffering and death, and for what?
    74
  15. Or they don't want to die pointlessly in an unwinnable war.
    72
  16. Yeah why not - America is already an international laughing stock.
    70
  17. This is why in recent surveys across the planet, the USA is considered to be the greatest threat to global peace. I have NEVER gone to sleep at night worrying about North Korea or Iran's nuclear programs, but I have spent dozen if not hundreds of hours worrying about Trump and the kind of nation that still supports him. And lest we forget, it was America that dropped not one but TWO nuclear weapons on civilian areas, and to our shame, Britain that firebombed Dresden deliberately collectively killing hundreds of thousands of non-combatants in acts of blatant terrorism. The US is backing down because the allies (and co-signatories) it has shit on and tried to bully have all pushed back and refused to abide by the sanctions that America unilaterally decided to impose. Fuck the current US government. I hope they all die miserably..

  18. The irony of that woman saying it's unnecessary under 18 when peer pressure is the highest, whilst failing to consider that the whole industry is largely unnecessary. These females would do far better to get off social media and spend their money on counselling.
    67
  19. Johnson is a clown but this man is an opportunist slimy back-stabber.
    66
  20. Abuse is part of being ultra-rich, be it sexual, financial or social. Like father, like daughter. Bu she's just the doorwoman. The real power players will hopefully be sweating tonight.
    66
  21. BBC, desperately looking for things to be offended by on behalf of a miniscule woke brigade. We're all being gaslighted by an organisation desperate to distract attention from the licence fee, Jimmy Saville, Martin Bashir, and its many other genuine scandals.

  22.  @kylecunningham1187  Normal people want ANY coverage that could help recover their child.

  23. I hate that he had to do it, and from one perspective, it was massively insensitive, but from the other, he was actually trying to man up and say it to their faces. If he'd left human resources to do it, he'd have been castigated for being a coward. The greater question is, why is this the SECOND time he's had to do this? If their employment is performance based and they're not performing, then this is reasonable. If they did regular jobs, and it was HIS ineptitude, then HE'S the one that should be out on the street.
    63
  24. Should have got their damned arms and legs pulled off. There was something to say for that, when you were sure you had the guilty. Now THAT'S a deterrent!

  25. Ha ha ha. It's not the trading - it's that the establishment doesn't like "amateurs" messing with their money raking scheme. We all remember how trading in Game Stop were suspended when millions of "amateurs" started buying to push back against short sellers. It's okay for the "experts" to drive companies into bankrupcy, but not for penny traders to save it. The whole thing is a corrupt and rancid cesspool.

  26. I can only imagine his terror at finding himself alone, but if his goal was to turn himself in, he succeeded. But who the hell was supposed to be watching out for him?
    60
  27. A very confused young woman, who apprently wants the retrograde morality of a 6th century patriarchy, combined with the free sexual liberation of 21st century western society.
    58
  28. It's beautiful to see two people still in love after so long.
    58
  29. Oh how tragic, the country with aspirations to be the navigator of the European superstate can't even gain a large enough consensus to govern itself. Hilarious.
    57
  30. The FIRST one was too late. The second one should never have been needed at all!
    57
  31. An "illegal oil refinery?" How the f**k does a company put up an illegal oil refinery without getting spotted? Lots of local officials taking backhanders, but even then...
    56
  32. 🤣🤣🤣 The Taliban has GOT to be effing kidding right?!
    56
  33. Because it happened a dozen times last year, and media is paid for by billionaires with a vested interest in disguising what they have done.
    54
  34. I'm surprised at the apparent scarcity of satellite phones. I'd have thought that if you were an archipelagos nation with a single communications cable, that you would make alternate provisions.
    53
  35. Her reassurance is to tell him what a sh*tshow the assessments were last year?!!
    52
  36.  @blakethink  If CHina imposes laws lhat are especially onerous and prejudicial to overseas companies, that's the same as banning them. And just ask the movie industry if China has free and fair trade.

  37. Biden was the one that built up the meeting by continually making it clear he was going to accept no bullshit. He HAD to know that Putin was not going to play ball, and he HAD to know that he would need something to say to the press after achieving nothing.
    51
  38. "How close he was" The man literally dropped down dead. Had nobody been there, he would be permanently dead. This is the end of his career and the man will never be comfortable on his own again, or asleep. What a moronic question.
    51
  39. Making the whole world get up early is ridiculous. For the whole nation to have to adapt to farmer's times, or a pre-electrical world is moronic. Get rid of early starts, cancel daylight saving and push the clocks forwards two hours permanently.
    50
  40. Well of course you can go on making your case. Just don't expect it to change anything.

  41. You're a disgusting piece of shit. There was nothing artificial about her hug. It was a genuine expression of compassion and if you were not clearly a sociopath you might have recognised that fact.
    50
  42. The sheer destructive power of water is devastating. You expect it with tsunamis, but rivers overflowing?
    50
  43. Always amazes me when people live on a volcano then act surprised when it erupts occasionally.
    49
  44. OMG, he's sooo screwed. He's SUCH a bad liar, and when all of defences are technical, not factual, he has no chance.
    48
  45. If he's the best voice actor for the part then great, but his colour or race should not be a factor in a goddamned cartoon!
    46
  46. Nonsense. The photo is an actual depiction of the moment it was taken. If you take a photo and underexpose it, then when I transfer the photo from your camera I boost the exposure, nobody would say that the photo was not taken on the day you took it.
    45
  47. If they wanted complete realism they should have put it in handcuffs, or on its hands and knees looking over its shoulder at Putin.
    45
  48. If he's filling a pond with wood to save his house, he's gonna lose his house...
    44
  49. It says, "Never trust America."

  50. The amount of stupid is painful. FFS, start teaching critical thinking in schools.
