Children casualties of war, collateral damage is gut-wrenching, heartbreaking; WRONG on all levels! I will stand alongside a Jewish Child’s casket & stand alongside an Arab Child’s casket; same to me!
there is no pain like death of a child to a parent, Jew or Arab, black, white, no matter; Israel must defend itself and must repond to the atrocities but must ensure ONLY wrongdoers punished, not kids

I agree.

With cash earning 5%, why risk money on the stock market? Savings rates have rocketed and UK savers can earn over 5% on deposits. So doesn’t it make sense to cut risk and stick to the safety of cash? (Schroders)

No.  You’re tasking a GUARANTEED loss.

Argh!

Friday, August 18, 2023

Dissent: Majority’s decision is “an unfortunate abdication of judicial duty … with respect to a very important constitutional issue that is directly harming and will likely continue to harm the parents in this case by usurping their constitutionally protected role.” The post first appeared on Le·gal In·sur·rec·tion .

Seems like hyper inflation in Argentina

Thursday, August 17, 2023

https://freerepublic.com/tag/*/index?more=128087782

*** begin quote ***

On Monday, Argentina’s central bank raised #interestrates to 118% as Argentina 30-year mortgage is now at a record 82.2%. There is a record 350 Argentine Pesos for each US Dollar. All courtesy of Argentina’ version of Bidenomics … top down direction of spending and regulation and an out of control Central Bank. Don’t cry for Argentina. .They voted for endless Peronist polices (Justicialist Party). Say, are Joe and Jill Biden the new Juan and Eva Peron?

I don’t know how you can take on an 80+% mortgage?

Researchers have used drone-mounted LiDAR – which emits pulses of light to create 3D models and maps – to ‘see through’ the thick forest canopy. 

They found nearly 1,000 features within the landscape, including dugouts, bomb craters and even artillery emplacements where troops positioned their guns.

Wonder if they will find any MIA’s or KIA’s?

“Climate change” is a scam!

Saturday, August 12, 2023

A renowned climatologist has said that the alleged scientific consensus on “climate change” is a “manufactured consensus” perpetuated by the United Nations (U.N.). In an interview with libertarian journalist and pundit John Stossel, climatologist Judith Curry said that the “manufactured consensus” existed because a scientist would achieve “fame and fortune” for exaggerating the risks associated with “climate change.”

Hunter Biden Probe: Garland’s Special-Counsel Appointment Is a Farce | National Review

Friday, August 11, 2023

Of course, if he were to deign to answer questions (as he declined to do today), Garland would point out that that last of the regulations, Section 600.10, makes clear that no one can sue him for refusing to follow the regulations. And that’s right: This is all theater. He is pretending to follow regulations while not following them, hoping you don’t notice but aware that even if you do notice there’s nothing you can do about it. Got that?

Seems to make a joke out the whole concept!

Anyone surprised?
