The current case of Otto Warmbier provides what I see as an example of face-saving mindset.
—
During his stay at the Yanggakdo International Hotel in Pyongyang, Warmbier allegedly stole a propaganda sign from a staff-only floor of the hotel.[19] The poster said, “Let’s arm ourselves strongly with Kim Jong-il’s patriotism!”. Harming such items with the name or image of a North Korean leader is considered a serious crime by the government.[20]

“Personally, I think Trump should STAY OUT of Syria. It’s lose-lose, an between Assad and more Jihadis, I choose Assad”
Agreed. This is the perpetuation of Obamunist foreign policy of national and regional destabilization.
I’m not pleased that Jared Kushner is enroute to this CF.
“MBA Generals”
Ah yes. Col. Hackworth’s perfumed princes. The ones who have rubberstamped ‘transgender’ personnel and prosecuted a US soldier for stopping pedophilic rape by our “allies”.
Quisling paper pushers.
“It is to decimate and end the Islamic State.”
The neocons, the House of Saud and other ME masters applaud you for your proper humility, obeisance and correct recitation.
“Are you loyal to the US or another power?”
Is the slobbering fedbeast loyal to the US or other powers?
““It is to decimate and end the Islamic State.”
The neocons, the House of Saud and other ME masters applaud you for your proper humility, obeisance and correct recitation.”
I take that as your declaration of support for the Islamic State.
Why?
Best summary right there.
Why?
I have no idea why you are a submissive proponent of old Obamunist policies.
And...the circus continues in Congress over the laughable assertion that Trump is a stooge of Putin. We could be on the brink of WWIII and the Dummies (including McCain) would still not stop beating this horse.
be it so to you according to your faith,
I have no interest in Syria. No interest in Turkey. None at all with the Saudis, except the stupid SOBs need us to pump their oil.
We need an Ayn Rand to explain it all. “Bomb the shit out of them or go home - no in between.”
It’s coming whether people believe it or not.
Can’t say when, exactly. But there are a lot of disconcerting pieces.
“I have no idea why you are a submissive proponent of old Obamunist policies.”
Makes no sense.
no one knows but the Father, but I must say as all things are cycles such as alpha omega when all this happens we can forfeit our earth lives and lay down our lives for christ, or we can start the cycle again by choosing to be a world at war..
can’t lay down as the lion with the lamb without being brutalized, can’t kill everyone and have a soul...new cycle is the way of the Lord
We’ll see just how well the S-300PMU and the S-400 systems really work ... now about those Su-35 escorts ...
[can’t kill everyone]
I don’t think anyone here is suggesting that.
Hysteria \Hys*te"ri*a\, n. [NL.: cf. F. hyst['e]rie. See
Hysteric.] (Med.)
A nervous affection, occurring almost exclusively in women,
in which the emotional and reflex excitability is
exaggerated, and the will power correspondingly diminished,
so that the patient loses control over the emotions, becomes
the victim of imaginary sensations, and often falls into
paroxism or fits.
[1913 Webster]
Note: The chief symptoms are convulsive, tossing movements of
the limbs and head, uncontrollable crying and laughing,
and a choking sensation as if a ball were lodged in the
throat. The affection presents the most varied
symptoms, often simulating those of the gravest
diseases, but generally curable by mental treatment
alone. Hysteric
