I'm in Norway a lot. If you take a cab, or go to a grocery store, it's probably an East African you're going to be dealing with. Norway lacks the people necessary to meet the demands of society, so they have no choice but to import them.

I'm not sure why immigrants immediately want to choose the US over other countries. Ignorance, maybe. Maybe it's the perception that you can sit in the US and collect money without doing anything. I don't know. But the Somalis driving cabs in Bodo went from a scorching desert to a rainy, wind cold city north of the Arctic Circle. Good for them.

And I don't think the Norgies, especially the old school Vikings up north, would tolerate a lack of assimilation. I've not seen it nor heard of it.

Rabies is by far the scariest disease on the planet. I thought it had been eliminated in terrestrial animals in the US.

"I will say, no-one can manipulate Trump."

Wow.

Just wow.

Yet last time I checked, Trump's approval with Republicans was 81%

I'm still waiting for someone to explain that ---- to me.

Did your mother enter the country illegally?

Don't have valid entry credentials? Leave.

If this dude wants to come back to the US, he can do the things necessary to get valid entry credentials.

"Why would someone that has an active legal immigration case want to leave before the orange shitgibbon began his jackboot deportation attacks?"

Define to me what an "active legal immigration case" is. Is anyone who comes into the US without valid entry credentials entitles to so a case, or is it more specific?

"These people are such a threat to the nation that they need to be rounded up en masse and sent to camps."

I'm not a threat to Germany, but if my residency status changes, they will make me leave the country.

MY daughter is 19.5 years old. In 1.5 years, she will no longer be allowed to reside in Germany. Do you see that as a violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights?

"So you support mass roundups of millions of people and sending them to camps, when they aren't even charged with a crime."

So...correct me if I'm wrong, but they're free to leave the US whenever they want, no?

"He could have left voluntarily .. chose not to."

This.

If Germany someday decides they don't want me here anymore, they're just going to make sure I don't stay here. I don't think they're going to stop me from going somewhere other than the US. And they would likely only forcibly deport me if I refused to leave on my own terms.

"This place is Rcade's personally "Animal Farm". Some are more equal than others."

It is his website.

I think he's actually gotten a lot more liberal. I remember getting banned in 2016 for posting a scientific review from Princeton on climate change. At the time, that was no bueno. I don't know that RCade would care in 2026.

"1000 years from now "Gulf of America" could be the common accepted name."

Technically, "Gulf of America" makes more sense. Mexico is just one American country that borders that body of water.

"I hear Canadians are starting to call it Lake Obama to piss off Orange Adolf."

I LOVE that.

I know that our friends in the Canadian government aren't nearly as juvenile or incompetent as those in the US, but I'm sure there are many border crossings, bridges, and monuments that could be renamed in honor of the last good US president.

Germany and Japan should go ahead and claim victory in WWII.

Technically, there were no losers in WWII. All countries came out stronger than they had been.

So...from the River to the Sea?

"Israeli Zionists have not done that; because they are, at their core, an expansionist, colonialist movement- and neither have the Palestinian people (why would they? Give their land to a bunch of fascist thieves from Europe and Brooklyn?)"

Like Pakistan, Jordan, and Syria, Palestine was the creation of European powers when they elected to divest their colonial holdings. Even the term "Palestinian" didn't emerge until the very end of the 19th century.

"Unfortunately, many Jews- especially the Israeli Zionists, were quick to conflate Judaism with their ethnosupremacist, fascist Zionist ideology during and after the forced formation of the colonial state of Israel, and the blowback in the Muslim world was to be expected- as is any blowback when something illegal and illegitimate is done in one's name that affects millions."

Illegal?

Do you think the creation of Pakistan was equally illegal and Illegitimate?

"How does Rome have any relevance to Crimes in North America?"

Elitism and Slavery were staples of every civilization for thousands of years.

It's like saying that Fiji was founded on cannibalism.

"He's the President for crying out loud."

So was Biden. When he was little more than a walking corpse.

Do you like Trump, Bill? If so, could you do me a fave and explain why?

I'm trying hard to understand why 81% of Republicans still support Trump.

"Slavery and Elitism are the true basis of America."

???

Really?

Ever heard of Rome?

Jesus Christ.

"So does your Vietnam analogy mean you want Trump to finish this?"

Someone has to.

But it will be the next president. Trump will simply keep claiming how victorious he has been, until his term ends or he dies of old age.

He lost interest in OEF the minute he realized he couldn't claim any bragging rights from it.

"Iran has not gone "head-to-head" with the US. The US has the military capability to level Iran if it chose to fully unleash it."

Sure. We could nuke the ---- out of Iran, but we could do that to any country.

The US could have, um succeeded, but that would first require a theory of victory. A set of objectives. From there, you would determine how to achieve those objectives. Normally, you do that by holding something your adversary values at risk. In Iran, I would say that would most likely be the coastal areas, ports, and oil production facilities.

That never happened. OEF has been the biggest strategic defeat in the history of the United States. I have no idea what objectives the DoW established prior to the conflict, but unless the objective was to burn through thousands of critical munitions, those objectives have not been achieved. And unless the US is willing to deploy a massive ground force, the Iranian victory will stand. More cruise missiles will not do anything to change Iran's decision calculus. They've already won.

"I think it's anti-Semitic to use a 3000 year-old religion to promote a 130 year-old ethnosupremacist fascist, genocidal ideology as part and parcel of that same 3000 year-old religion."

But it was OK for the Muslims to do it to promote a much, much younger religion?

Would you consider the Muslim countries that extirpated their Jewish communities ethnosupremacist, fascist, and genocidal as well?

"Hasan hates Israel for its genocide. He doesn't hate Jews."

Why does no one ever mention the extirpation of Jewish communities in nearly every Islamic country. Hell, Iran is liberal when it comes to their treatment of religious minorities.

You're joking, right?

You're calling Astronauts bimbos?

He will not be attending the 9/11 ceremony in NYC because he wouldn't be allowed to speak.
