I have to say that the past week or so has had news of little or no interest to me, and even less worth commenting on.
Yeah, Trump has finally got Iran to sign a “deal” which will do something or other, but I suspect that those assholes have no intention of following any of its terms — at least, those terms which would prevent it from continuing their jihad against Israel and the West — so I suspect that at some point we’ll have to go back and do it all over again.
And the Brits are totally fucked under Labour — we all knew that anyway — but I see little light at the end of that particular tunnel until a proper alternative can be found for the Socialists. Don’t hold yer breath. If we think that repatriating the millions of illegal aliens Over Here is difficult, it will be exponentially more difficult Over There with the millions of “refugees” they’ve welcomed in and allowed to infest their once-proud society.
I don’t care about Europe as a whole, anyway, so whatever happens to them will happen — they brought it all on themselves anyway — and yeah, whatever.
Everyone keeps saying that China’s economy is going to collapse soon, but I think that’s bullshit. As the man said: there’s a lot of ruin in a nation, and anyone thinking there’ll be some sudden cataclysmic collapse is deluding themselves. (They said that about the Soviet Union too, and it did collapse; but I see no evidence of a Chinese Gorbachev to start the ball rolling.)
As for our economy… don’t ask. At some point we too are going to be well and truly fucked, thanks to our feckless government spending levels, but if there’s a lot of ruin in China, there’s a hell of a lot more ruin in the U.S. If we can somehow solve the issue without wholesale executions (quit that cheering), it will be a win.
The only bit of cheering news I see is that the stupid and self-destructive Green movement is starting to see the air escaping out of their little balloon, and not a moment too soon, says I. As Insty says, faster please.
I think I’ll go to the range and shot off a whole bunch of .22 because why not?
