Global War on Terror 8 - Winter is Coming

Re: Global War on Terror 8 - Winter is Coming

oh, and all those imported help person are looked down upon worse (yes, it's possible) than tD supporters do back home. mookie is the only professional who speaks to (heck, acknowledges) the tea boys, cleaners, messengers, whatnot.

That seems pretty normal. People who come over here and are treated like sh-t, if they stay home treat their help like sh-t.

Liberal Americans and Europeans are the only people in the world who treat servants and women as anything other than garbage.

think that has anything to do with lib euros all having a couple mistresses? and it being accepted?

(and mookie is not sure if he should be offended or not that the implication was made there that mookie may be a 'liberal american' )

AFAIK every European in power has several mistresses. It's a class accessory, like a summer house or a Cayman's account.

European culture seems to have detached marriage from sex at the back end much in the way 20th century America detached it at the front end. Maybe they're just more advanced than we colonials.

It's not for me, but particularly in a world of true gender equality it might make a lot more sense.

did mookie mention here (somewhere) how they all tell mookie how upset they were that tD and bho before him (lotta blame to go around) gave up iraq and syria to iran. peeps are very afraid of iran coming across and turning south and using their wonderful highways when the chit is ready to head into the kingdom. here the emir is trying very hard to win a noble pp, being a mediator with the gcc4 vs qatar, working with iraq on the still outstanding reparations, generally everything that needs a voice of reason. he's a rather decent king all things considered. people here are like they are anywhere else. they can talk. they can also import south asians to do all the dirty work like the us does with their southern neighbor, then complain about it. the mp's here waste all their time debating each other how one can reduce the expat population more than the next mp. raise fees, etc. funny part is nobody wants to touch or put extra limits on household help. each family is allowed to have 5 (or is it 8?) maids. fees for them are set low while all the other expat fees are higher or getting higher. visa app fees. stuff like that. rather funny indeed.

As someone that lived for a year in the region and now for 3+ In SE Asia all I can ask is what? In general much of what you say rings true but in relation to this attack?

Mookie was asked if people talk about these things or look over their shoulder and are afraid to.

The Brits are labeling it "the T word".

Per CNN: http://edition.cnn.com/2017/12/11/us...est/index.html

Suspect made the explosive device at his workplace

This guy's making bombs at work! And here I felt guilty pulling some UniStrut out of the dumpster to make some legs for some seating from the old REA (now the site of the HPC) that I acquired over the summer.

And they say we don't make anything in America anymore.

This is a proud day for our native ingenuity.

Native??


For the record, the east Pakistanis love Mookie. They have all the crap jobs here (literally) and Mookie is the only one who doesn’t treat them like wallpaper. All in all they are solid folks who work all day long

They've been making bombs in NYC for the past 40+ years. The quality of the bomb making hasn't improved either.

There has to be a joke Jeff Dunham / Achmed the Dead Terrorist has done in today's events somewhere.
