Also, Sweden offering police protection to female joggers so they don't get raped.

His general view seemed to be that with the backing of the Trump administration — he praised President Trump as “the right person at the right time” — the Saudis and their Arab allies were slowly building a coalition to stand up to Iran.

Wow
 
Russia's Olympic committee is banned from the 2018 Winter Games. Russian athletes will be allowed to compete unaffiliated.

Who'd have thought that an ambitious intelligence op could have impressive short-term success before being unwound and becoming a long-term international ****-show?

It's a wild story, including the fact that a former head of the Russian Anti-Doping Agency was shopping a tell-all to journalists before dying of a "massive heart attack" at 52.
 
Good lord the Obama administration aided foreign terrorists almost as much as GWB. Money has no meaning to these bureaucrats. Hundreds of millions of dollars could help so many Americans, well about 12 with government efficiency but the point stands nonetheless.

I dont give two ****s about where our embassy is. If anyone wants to attack Americans because they are offended then I say we need to do everything imaginable to piss them. I wouldnt mind Trump burning on the koran on live tv. This whole dont offend them because they are violent and will attack us is bull****. I wouldnt let a single Muslim into the country unless they are willing to eat pork to get in. If you choose religion over safety then you can stay in the hell hole of a country your in and pray for Allah to save you. We really seem not to notice that Muslim countries are hell holes because they are filled with Muslims.

Easy to criticize when it's not your backyard having rockets shot into.

Love the rationale you can't stand up for basic civil norms with the Muslim world for fear of the reaction.
