The only coloured text I read is from a member known as Pyro who seems to have this habit. All other coloured texts are ignored.

Other rules which may or may not apply!

I do not converse with any of the following:

1) Fanatical Assad sympathisers and anti western stooges and traitors!
2) people who find Russian mouthpieces as legitimate and intellectual or valid sources. It’s a complete waste of time to take people like that seriously.
3) people who are anti-Semitic in this day and age.
4) anyone who revels in the despair of millions of Muslims on one side of the divide, yet support the other (Shia) side.

My advice to you, is to stay away from my posts and do not read them. My posts are not for you! They are for more rationally minded people without the anti-western agenda.

I am a proud Australian Cypriot. As such, the US is a country I also love and am very proud of too. It is a country that I and billions of people around the globe respect, because it is a bastion of freedom, free speech and human rights for all its people and for all minorities. The US is a country I know well, and admire in many ways.

We are diametrically opposed. I can’t be meeting people like you, or have a beer with you. You are an enemy. As such, your safety will be compromised in my presence. There is nothing you can say or do to convince me to betray my country or its allies. The country I grew up with, and the culture I learned which is also some quasi Aussie Americanised culture, is my culture and the culture of my Australian kids. We have fought in every single war together for the last 100 years. Where there is American blood spilled, you will also find Australian blood too. We have been through too much. And we have too much in common.

You are embargoed. Which means, you are ignored. Not worthy of my time.

Without prejudice!


Your comical self opinion and refusal to face reality are for me merely a source of entertainment and amusement. When I said Trumps speeches were for dumbasses ....... all you can do is prove it! When they brainwashed you they also tumble dried it ...... nobody, but nobody could be as dumb as you present yourself on this forum. Syria ..... you lost, your nemesis Putin showed himself to be a real leader and can be relied upon as President Assad and the Syrian people have realised. :roll: :D

So far, American citizens have been purchasing goods that were on back-order and therefore pre-tariff, but this year... everything is about to change!

Brace yourself... o’ dumbest electorate on the planet. :)


The US is for the time being experiencing a pretty big economic boom.

They are growing at more than 2.8% - top of the OECD.

In fact, it is even better than I thought! :shock:

Australia is growing at 2.8%

USA is growing at 4.2% :shock:

They can not be that ...dumb !!
They elected ...Trump as their president , Paphitis was absolutely right when he called Trump an idiot !!!!


I don’t need to like him as an individual.

I just need to respect him as a leader and as a POTUS, and as the POTUS and a global leader, he has my attention because he brings something very unique to the table that we have not seen before, and it is paying dividends.

No doubt you’re talking about the US government “growing”… the result of cashing in from tariffs paid by US citizens, it wouldn’t have normally had!

No I am talking about growth of nthe total GDP which is a combination of Government and private sector.

Also, I don’t think tariffs have really kicked in yet. In addition to this, the USA has a lower cost of living than Europe, Canada and Australia. Goods and services are always cheaper in the USA as a general rule, therefore there is plenty of scope for foreign goods and services to come up a fraction and make USA goods and services more competitive.

What will happen is that American companies and businesses will move more of their manufacturing to the USA, which means more jobs for Americans, more money for American citizens and a major upturn in the economy.

No one really knows the full extent of what will happen. This type of economics was last seen in the 80s. The USA is going back to it and is virtually the only country to do so. So now, we are about to get a real time example of an economy that has abandoned globalism for protectionism and we are going to see what is better in this day and age.

And it is a good thing Get Real because I have a feeling that the globalist elites like the EU, and other countries like Australia have pulled the wool over our eyes. I have a feeling it isn’t better at all for the common person, but only for the corporation that can set up sweat shops in Turkey, India, China, Vietnam, Indonesia and Philippines.

You should be thanking Trump, for your children’s sake. :D

What exactly does this load of Trump/US adoration crap have to do with 'The War on Syria'?

I will add that Trumps withdrawal from Syria and Afghanistan is something I admire him for but as a speech maker the man is a clown! Now maybe he will continue the good work and pull US troops out of all the other conflicts, stop threatening and interfering with other states and let the UN decide on which sanctions should be applied and against whom.

As for US leaving Syria ..... good riddance!

ps. I have noticed Akrotiri has gone very quiet in the last few days, no one left to bomb now? Should please the UK government as they can spend all that money on REALY protecting the UK's National Security by patrolling the Channel with more boats ...... or maybe they are planning to send in their two aircraft carriers? :lol: :lol: :roll:

As I said earlier, it makes little difference to these people. They are the anti-western war mongers which will attack the West continuously, and come to Iran’s defence. Their anti western hysteria has many manifestations, whether against the USA, or the EU, Canada, or Australia, and others. Basically, let’s support every despot in the world to remove this so called western hegemony.

But the hegemony they seem to support are those who diametrically oppose the west. Now lets just list all these forces that oppose the west - Russia, Syria, North Korea, Iran, ....well we all get the picture now don’t we?

It is a very big privilege living in the EU, USA, Australia or many other western countries. Now imagine having the misfortune of living in Russia, or worse still, Iran, or Saudi Arabia, or North Korea? Just by pure chance, we live in open democracies, with freedom and tolerance. Like winning the lottery.

I know many Iranians, and they do not paint a pretty picture of Iran. Many will tell you that Iran was far better under a US supported Shah. Back then, women could wear bikinis at the beach, now they are like Saudi Arabia.

People in Russia are not so fortunate as us. And things are not overly bad in Russia. It is much worse in places like Iran, Saudi Arabia, China (China is a mixed bag), or North Korea. Communism is a failed concept too.

How easily do we forget. Our freedoms were hard fought for. But people take them for granted. The day will come when they will regret it. And they will be begging for the USA to take the reigns once again. We are not ready for any Russia, or any China, or any Iran, or any Saudi Arabia, or North Korea.

These people are just anarchists. They want the world and society to implode, so that something else takes its place. They don’t even know what that something else is. They are just miserable and sad people.

People like the above lack the ability to reason. They are driven by other agendas. They want the total destruction of our civil western societies. For what end, is clear to me. Which is why they are best ignored. Don’t give them a platform to spew their vitriol and hatred.

People have more than enough to deal with already.

Also, we as the West are responsible for the evil deeds of regimes like Assad.

By allowing this butcher to continue, we have a lot of blood on our hands. This guy is now a war criminal, and it is our duty to bring him to answer to his crimes against humanity.

We as the West never forget. Nor will there be any statute of limitations. Syria will be a Pariah forever, for as long as he remains. There will never be any escape for Syria, or any respite. To deny justice is to spit on the graves of hundreds of thousands people.

The big thing about the US is that it is a democracy. Trumps is POTUS for the next 2 to 6 years. The next POTUS, might be someone who will not let Assad continue. And there are countries that will fall in line - namely France and Australia too.
