@73 Reds,

 

I'll naturally answer your question here, and after that, I hope we in this topic can get back to the Russian-Urainian exclusively. [I think it has been me derailing this topic here.  ]

 

First , answering your question is actually a bit academic, I'll say.

 

That's because the inuits have never had a currency,

 

Second, answering your question is actually a bit academic, I'll say.

 

That's because keeping your haired surface of your body [hair, armpits and pubic areas] free of all kind of bugs [ leece, etc.] took place by the use of urin. [I mean sharing a whole night with the wife of the male host should be considered quite an accomplishment]. No pharmacy down the road at the corner available, to buy some kind of skin care], nor even a shop nearby to buy shampoo,

 

Third, answering your question is actually a bit academic, I'll say.

 

That's because such 'incidents' were considered good in their nature, in most cases adding to the gene pool diversity in a constantly moving around tribe, who at times had issues with inbreeding. Such sperm was then the new gold and crypto currency! One new , likely 'pale' 'cross bread' in the tribe, attractive to anyone, the effective inbreading counter, to get the tribe going, the semi pale skin eventually geeting breed away!

You americans don't really know what you are messing around with by now.

Now, back to 'the war'.

It's about working professionally on top political level among Putin and Trump.

 

It's obvious for everybody, that there is doubt about what actually was agreed on between the two men under their telephone conversation.

 

That's because a bullet point transcipt - in both languages - of what they agreed on wasen't produced, and released, which should be done by the teams of the men, the result and outcome here  ending up being general non-sense worthless, useless comments from the two men about 'positive talks'.

 

That is also why the warefare activities have continued unchanged.

 

Putin is not giving in on anything really on behalf of Russia, before he is under severe threats of getting really hurt. Untill then, it's for him just the usual KGB approach, saying really nothing, being impossible to get a real and firm hold on, like trying to grab a slimy eel. Untill that point in time, he [Putin] will likely continue to do whatever he might decide to do, constantly bluffing his way through it all.

 

In short, Trump was really getting played here by the most experienced negotiator here.

 

It'll be interesting to observe what happens, when Trump realizes that Putin here has a modus operandi similar to his own regarding dealing with the truth.

I don't trust any of these two men - at all. I woulden't trade a second car with any of them.

 

I'm expressing myself this way because I'm a Dane from what is called the Sothern part of Denmark, which consists of Jutland, Funen and Sealand and surrounding minor or small islands :

 

 

But if I was a Dane by being Greenlandic, I would express it this way : "I woulden't let any of these men sleep with my wife, if they were visiting.' [  ]

 

Explainer : Earlier, when the original Greenlandic population was nomads, the culture was characterized by a great degree of hospitality, meaning, among other things, if you had a guest visiting over night, you did not only provide furs to lay on and to cover the guest to stay warm, you also offered the guest to 'lend' your wife to the guest to sleep with, to keep the guest warm under the visit! 

 

I am not sure what your real expectations are here - except for the killing to stop and Ukraine to have to concede lands they have lost to Russia.  I mean, what can you reasonably expect?

 

Ukraine is definitely not dealing from a position of strength, as they are losing this war, and need it to stop as soon as possible. What are your expectations?

 

You can say "Trump is being played" or you can say "Europe is not going to fight"

 

Now where does that leave you when you want to sue for peace?

 

Putin definitely holds the upper hand on this negotiation. Are you expecting him to give back 

all of his gains, when he could clearly take more, since he is unopposed, except for Ukraine?

What line? Greenland I have no opinion on, I don’t care. It’s people should be able to do what they want. Panama Canal we built, not sure why we gave it away…but whatever. WW2 clearly got to a point where picking sides and getting involved was necessary from a survival perspective. Totally different than all this fake shit and media nonsense about how “Putins gonna take over the world if we don’t fight a proxy war thru Ukraine” or how we constantly need to be “sending messages” to China/Xi or whatever. 

There is a line in there somewhere though.

 

”“Putins gonna take over the world if we don’t fight a proxy war thru Ukraine” - nobody is actually saying that though.

Still not getting what is interesting here.  They're talking about destroying preferential tax treatment for Democratic charities while maintaining preferential tax treatment for Republican charities.

 

Is it actually interesting that if you dramatically tilt the entire tax system toward the Republicans and away from the Democrats, then it favors the Republicans? Or that the Democrats will say it favours the Republicans?

Would it be equally interesting if they destroyed preferential tax treatment for Republican charities and found that favored the Democrats? Or you'd find it interesting if, upon this happening, the Republicans said, "hey, this favors the Democrats."

 

Just really confused why anyone would find this interesting.

My personal expectations are really irrelevant, because I'm an ordinary Danish citizen, not a decision maker in all this mess.

 

POTUS , and thereby USA, has really nothing to do with this, forward looking, because POTUS wants USA out of this. The whole approach by USA to this conflict by now is sick, deranged, unless you can explain the logic in it to me. [You can't.]

 

It has become one the personal 'success criterias' of your POTUS, self-determined, self-ordered and self-appointed, while simultainously, he wants absolutely nothing to do with it.

 

For him, it's all about money.

Imperialist is different from what you said though, you exaggerate a lot lol, he might be eyeing up Baltics and Ukraine.  But I doubt he has any intention of causing WW3.

To make DOGE look bad by targeting Lefty organizations, they have to admit those organizations were funded by tax dollars (as the Right has long claimed).

 

Whoops.

Of course it has nothing to do with money, the man has more money than he will ever need.

 

It has to do with ending a pointless war, where the longer it goes on - the more people die needlessly.  That should not be at all difficult to understand.

 

Now you really sound like a warmonger.

Thats not what the NYT article says though.

 

And btw, I agree that if these democratic institutions are getting money, that should stop.

[Gregmal]

This is why the “tax the rich” people are naive suckers. Yea, in theory those of us whom are productive and positive contributors to society could afford to “pay a little more” and doing so should help fix a lot of problems. In reality the money just goes to lobbyists, special interest groups, and foreign countries.
 

Not what we signed up for.

[Buckeye]

agree with you on this point Greg. The only point I was trying to make was that James posted an article from the NYT, presumably proving some point of his to be right. But I thought that we’ve all been told repeatedly that the Left Wing Rag NYT is just fake news. So which is? Is it legit when it confirms our own biases, but fake media in all other instances? You can’t have it both ways James. 
 

And TBH, his original post was mostly a trolling exercise, as it has nothing to do with Elon Musk. But it’s a great lead-in for the other fighters to pick up their pitchforks!

Don’t know. Haven’t read or watched any MSM news in probably a decade, maybe longer. Well, except for Election Day I flipped between CNN and MSNBC. The tears are just too good to pass up. 

[John Hjorth]

Mike [ @cubsfan ],

 

My last post above likely turned out too negative. POTUS' efforts to stop the hostilities, and thereby the killings of Ukrainian and Russian citzens - soldiers and civilians - are noble.

 

And at least we are in a better situation now than just after the meeting in the White House between Volodymyr Zelenskyj and Donald Trump, which was a meltdown.

 

Let's also hope for a good outcome of the meetings in Saudi Arabia next week, where I understand three delegations are participating, American, Russian and Ukrainian.

It's not ridiculous but what is ridiculous is any notion that the population of Greenland lacks self-determination.  If they should vote to become a possession of the US so be it.  The way the issue is portrayed by the media is that somehow the US will forcibly take over Greenland.  That is ridiculous and a sign of Trump derangement.

Yeah, no problem with the visit or the mayor declining a meeting but I'd have to think that an upcoming election is precisely why he declined a meeting.

@73 Reds,

 

Sure, and yes, on surface, and they of course are welcome.

 

The foreign policy and security policy for Greenland is not a matter for the Grenlandic government in Nuuk, it's a matter for the Danish government in Copenhagen [,where Greenland has 2 MPs out of 187]. This is according to 

 

Total radio silence from there, like an ostrich burying its head in the sand. It better come forward as soon as possible. The whole Danish population is waiting for a reaction.
