No you were merely screaming sarcasm in your initial paragraph, if it looks like a duck and all that. ---

Don’t see how you got there, and as the person that carries my brain around, I can assure you it wasn’t. You should really read the posts. I think half your problem is that you don’t, assume that someone is having a go back, which leads to the confused replies. If I wanted to dis you, I would not be oblique about it. How the fuck you don’t know that after the six years we’ve known each other, I don’t know. ---

Unfortunately the shadow of Trump is still there to haunt him, but it is a pleasant relief not to see his daily bullshit social media utterings everyday. Now if only someone could arrange to duct tap Johnson’s mouth up, watching the evening news could become less tortuous all round. ---

What really struck me about Biden’s acceptance speech wasn’t so much what he said but the way he said it. After four years of Trump and Britain Trump’s ramblings, their total inability to string a coherent sentence together, it was such a novelty to hear a President speaking articulately. Now Trump has gone, I feel Britain Trump will suffer now his mentor has gone and he is on his own. So far he has got away with it on the grounds that, of course he’s shit, but at least he’s not as bad as Trump. Now he will stick out like a nun in a brothel. ---

> [@Cobham-Saint](#): > > Retaliatory- but don’t let that get in your way. > we are being told that the United States launched an airstrike on Syria, a nation it [invaded and is illegally occupying](https://www.theamericanconservative.com/articles/end-americas-illegal-occupation-of-syria-now/), because of attacks on “US locations” in Iraq, another nation the US [invaded and is illegally occupying](https://caitlinjohnstone.com/2020/01/11/so-the-us-is-invading-iraq-again/). This attack is justified on the basis that the Iraqi fighters were “Iranian-linked”, a claim that is both entirely without evidence and irrelevant to the justification of deadly military force.

I’m not going to argue or interact with you on this apart from to say you can pick the news sources to align with your world view. I don’t necessarily agree with the “retaliation” camp but I’m sure as fuck not getting drawn into a pointless argument with you. 👍 ---

Biden out bombing, I wonder if Trump’s isolationist stance would have done this? ---

You seem confused. I haven’t picked a news source to align with my world view. My “news” source in this case was the BBC. I have given a commentary on that “news” by proxy because I thought it would be more efficient to do it that way. The reason I quoted that person’s comments was _precisely_ because her commentary aligned with my own worldview and that she expressed it well. What would be the point in me trying to better it and what would be the point in me trying to provide a commentary that didn’t align with my own worldview? ---

Given that Trump did exactly the same previously, then I’d say that he’d have done exactly the same this time too. Only with a whole load of bravado about what he’d done. ---
