Yes, it was: https://vulcantothesky.org/articles/big-thunder/

I'm 99% sure it is. I also recognise Walters' name..I think they ran the Cold War Jets day at Brunny and also managed the hangers there.

Really good question. Your suggestion sounds more promising than the current implication. As there are 15 in total with 5 permanent members, I think a passing 8 majority is good enough. It should encourage the permanent members to more actively engage with the non-permanent ones and as they swap every 2 yes, gives opportunities to reset. Atm, the permanent members can afford to be lazy knowing just one of them can block anything - not really an incentive for discussion and compromises. I'd remove the Abstention option, this would force the UK to be a bit more assertive in our choices, and China too. Wrt your point about a world parliament and Western democracies not taking too kindly to it... We are implicitly dictated by the U.S presently anyway, so I see it as a bit of a facade - a pretence at choice for the casual public viewer. It's a sad state of affairs at the moment all round really.

That guy is itching to trigger the burst.. you can feel it in the interview... And it's coming up to 18 yrs for the cycle, so he wouldn't be out of step with trends.

Quite. Being vetoed by only one member of the Security council must be extremely frustrating when the majority think otherwise. Needs reform urgently

I know it's a UN body, I thought that was obvious when it was posted. I realise it's not just for Gaza too. What do you mean by " Just shows the UN for what they are" ? We need to put trust in independent organisations and institutions, we all need to be held to account by our peers. I think the adage of 'Trust but Verify' applies here "we have systems in place to call them out and hold people accountable. (If they’re used)" I think the fact that you have to caveat that statement at the end tells us all we really need to know.

Meanwhile, been watching these type of events get progressively worse. https://newrepublic.com/post/201394/ice-chicago-police-fake-911-calls Trump needs to get a couple more states in addition to Illinois and Oregon and he might have a chance of cancelling the mid-terms next year under emergency powers. .."keep 'em peeled" as Shaw Taylor used to say.

Just names. USA and. isr do not recognise that committee anyways... And it's advisory. But it's probably the most hostile collection you could get against the main antagonists in Gaza right now bar the South Africans.

If you're diversified then the dips are usually shallower. The market has been unusual of late with both stocks and gold going upwards, bonds have been less favourable but not tanking like they were last year and earlier this year. If you're into podcasts, I recommend this one to your list: https://pensioncraft.com/investor-education/resources/podcasts/ All the ones in September are pertinent to the discussion.

As Steve Bannon, you need to flood the zone with 5h!t. Keep ppl off their equilibrium hide the truth amongst a sea of lies.

It's a 'big' problem, from cultural, truth and environmental perspectives. However, the technology itself may be the best solution to the problem it generates.

Really? Is that in between your vociferous wanking activities?

Ordinarily I'd agree with you. But for the next 3.5 years I would not be surprised if a certain president attempted to make the 'official' announcement to ensure immortality in history.

Problem is that there is still no confirmed (paid for) mission to get the samples back for further testing. The Chinese are currently the most viable to do this in the 2030's. Can't help thinking we missed an opportunity to be a bit braver in '76 and then we'd be much further along this route.

Foresight

General consensus seems to be heading towards balloon and drones attached to it releasing and then hanging about to reconnect. Hellfire didn't detonate due it being either trigger not activated due to low impact of hitting balloon or it was the Hellfire variant that deploys blades - as it appears to go through the balloon. Burlison got is a 'dead drop' the night before so no chain of custody, no source, and a prime target to be discredited for showing the video. Too keen and too green.

Been on metabunk recently? 😉

Gotta say though, would be interested to hear someone explain the Hellfire missile vid. Those things pack a punch.

Looks like Arthur C Clarke was right once again and we're on track for 2063

"I think with Starmer he needs to practise what he preaches. "He's a human rights lawyer, so maybe he needs to look at what people's human rights are; what freedom of speech means; and what the laws are in this country." I thought at first she was trying to be ironic, but sadly came to the conclusion that she put as much thought into this statement as the one that got her into trouble in the first place.

Is it a play on maybe he thought you had to BE black and a Jeep owner?

On a semi serious note, you can tell times are bad because I'm getting flyers for when X dealers are holding an open gold fayre at the local community centre where you can have your gold possessions valued etc... I view these people as c**ts looking to rip people off.
