So just in, North Korea tried to launch a missile but it failed :laugh: I guess who ever was in charge is gone now. 

Pretty embarrassing and yeah my thought exactly

And it's official.

Well done Turkey, created you're own Dictatorship.

Erdo now has 12 years to think of more ways to stay in power.

-PB

It will be interesting to see if & what corruption comes out of the voting process.
I can understand people are stupid enough to vote against their own interest (eg: Trump), but Turkey is on a whole other level

Normally you expect the north korea thing to blow over after a week, but this time I have little doubt USA will strike if the north do a nuclear test.

Mass youth political asylum seekers incoming from Turkey.

May's called for a UK election for 8 June. Pretty weak if you ask me.

Hoping they lose so they can pass the blame on to Labor for not leaving the EU.  This whole thing has been a fuck up from start to finish.

This will happen for sure which is bad for Turkey and surely will lead to them becoming an Islamist state. 

Turkey is the last hope for Islam/Christian co-existence.

Don't ever think Trump is that loopy.

It's all a facade. In my opinion, I actually believe he is super astute and intelligent and probably a lot more so than Clinton. 

Not anymore.

Turkey is the new Caliphate. 

Gog & Magog forming nicely

LOL. All the available evidence suggests otherwise.

Mike Pence about to set foot here.
I look forward to him sharing his views that creationism should be given an equal footing with evolution in schools

I'm more interested in how much USA is spending keeping us safe from Atheist China

Surely God will protect us?

Why would he ?

Cause 'muricaaa is on our side

The available evidence is that he is US President.

And that Obama was the biggest isolationist idiot of all time that created all of this mess to begin with. 

Yes, & clearly the most incompetent president in living memory. He has even outdone George W Bush.
Way out of his intellectual depth.
As for isolationist, I'm not sure what you mean - isolationism has been associated with Trump, not Obama, & any economist worth their salt will tell you isolationism is a big negative for the economy in the long run. Demagogic platitudes might appease patriotism, but personally, patriotism is for people who have a need for life to fit in nice little pigeon holes.

You are spouting hyperbole.

Trump hasn't even been in office for a 100 days yet.

And already, he has proven to be decisive on the international stage - cruise missile attack against Syria, and the threats against North Korea.

Obama proved to be the most isolationist President thus far, and this has been a catastrophe to world peace and stability. It has emboldened Russia in Ukraine and Syria, emboldened Iran and Syria as well as Turkey and Saudi Arabia. It has also emboldened china in the South China Sea. 

Trump got into office with isolationist rhetoric, but so far, he has been doing the polar opposite. And all the issues today have been brewing for a number of years, due to inaction from Obama.

I don't think Trump is the fool here, not by any stretch. And he has good people behind him too. 

How you can label an administration as "incompetent, barely 100 days into its term, beggars belief. 

Not really. I am very much up to speed. I watch MSNBC daily. Stephen Colbert daily (Trump & co provide a ridiculous amount of material. Even the writers of Veep mentioned that its hard to write comical material now that Trump & Co are the actual parody). That someone cannot see how incompetent this administration is, actually, beggars belief.
Trump has the worst aggregated opinion polling in history. History.
With a free Republican ride in Congress & Senate Trump couldn't get through the atrocious health care changes - it has been slammed by his own party & Republican voters (which anyone with half a brain cell knew was going to benefit the rich in advance).
He was going to 'drain the swamp' yet has arguably the richest political team in history.
Flynn resigning for connections to Russia
FBI investigation of Trump & Co ties to Russia with a potential for Trump's impeachment (which if you look at Nixon, could take a year)
Democrat Jon Ossoff now certain to win the 40+ year safe Republican Congressional seat in Georgia, because of the collapse in Republican support (nearly won outright in the first run with 48% of the vote, while the the highest Republican only got 18%)
Trump paying out $25M in lawsuits over Trump University, with more lawsuits pending.
The list goes on & on & on. Literally.

As for 'peace', Trump is the ultimate 'hyperbolist'. He is clearly causing instability, not stability. People have become very nervous about North Korea, that the idiot Trump thinks can be resolved through a couple of tweets. Its sad that people are wilfully gullible - if he says something it will happen!! They have bought into the simplism.
Anyway, I'm glad Obama didn't have a lust for war. George Bush's lies led to Iraq & now ISIS, that now people call for more war to resolve.
Its sad that people need to see images of soldiers' body parts & body bags, before they think "I guess this war wan't a good idea after all"

And now we are staring down the barrel of doing it again. Hence my post the other day "short memory must have a"

Oh I see. You watch MSNBC and some others and so it must be true.

You shouldn't be so naive. The only way to judge the administration is through its actions, and so far, the actions have been reasonable and even awe inspiring. it's what a US president should be like. they have a responsibility to the world and because the USA has not been true to its responsibilities for a number of years now, we have all kinds of problems and issues with regard to Russia, China, and Korea. 

I can't comment on the FBI investigation and will sit back and await for the evidence to be divulged. So far there mustn't be enough to impeach Trump. If there ever is, then the administration will need to be held accountable. There is no argument there from me. The allegations are actually quite severe in my opinion. But that is all they are for the time being. Allegations! And you can bet that the media will embellish the news feeds to make the administration look bad, but they are not the FBI or the Judge or Jurors. 

As for the alleged civil matters, they are irrelevant. Plus I don't know anything about them other than what the media say is so without giving a shred of evidence. 

Trump is exactly what the world needs today to avoid a major war down the track, if it isn't already too late. I don't believe anyone is stupid enough to start a war. Not even Kim Un Joon, but I could be wrong there. he is erratic. Trump is doing what he should be doing. Stopping them from attaining a Nuclear capability.

I'm really sorry for you that you don't like trump. but he was elected and now he is US president. He is not the idiot the media portray because an idiot wouldn't get elected. he outsmarted and out-moved everyone. 

(from an article I posted earlier)

..."Personally driven by instinct and impulse, unhampered by knowledge or judgment, he has led an administration acting so far on the basis of postures rather than policies," Mr Evans will say in a speech today to the National Press Club....

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-04-13/gareth-evans-blasts-donald-trump-urges-pivot-to-asia/8441444

Pretty much spot on. Rhetoric, such as that by Trump, appeals to the less critically thinking.

People say lots of things. Especially those that don't like the administration. 

But I have seen lots of policy.

he has given way more in terms of Foreign Policy than Obama ever did. he gave Syria a message that Chemical Warfare will not be tolerated. that's a big tick.

He is sending North Korea a strong message. Another big tick.

He also wants to repeal Obamacare, which in my opinion is a negative. It is ok if he would introduce another universal health care system which is more affordable, but I don't think he will do that in all likelihood. I support universal health.

All that and barely 100 days in. 

So when are we going to develop nuclear weapons?

Already got them. Uluru is a silo that opens up when we need to launch.

-PB

Actually he has barely done anything in the first 100 days despite promising it:
Tax Reform - zip
Immigration - zip (because he is too arrogant to accept that presidents are still subject to the judiciary)
Health Care - zip
Border wall - zip

He has however spent alot more time playing golf than his predecessor - again incredibly hypocritical, considering his past public statements about such
And then there's his nepotistic appointment of family members to his advisory team.

As for foreign policy, its unfortunate that you cannot see through impulsive 'bluff & bluster'.
His impulsiveness however, has resulted in North Korea threatening Australia, when it never needed to be.
If only the adults took away the twit's access to Twitter.

I think you need to open your eyes a little.

He has done a lot with Health care (tried to repeal Obamacare), and the wall is in a tender process. Usually, tender processes for contracts like this take more than 6 months to conclude. 

With immigration, thousands of illegals and visa over-stayers are being rounded up and even arrested and then deported. They have been very active in that space, and have even been criticized for it. 

They have also implemented very stringent border control and vetting processes and even temporarily banned citizens from certain countries. 

Also, very active with their Foreign Policy - Syria, Afghanistan and North Korea.

Not having achieved anything is a huge lie and fake news.
