  1. Imagine the disaster if Trump was still president . He'd probably he supporting Putin or some other random crazy lunatic antics, like some of the many other "useful idi0t" Putins apologists around.... whataboutery Iraq etc Trump seems to have some kind of homoerotic attraction or envy for "hard man" dictators as if thats what he aspired to be? In an alternative universe, Corbyn won the 2019 election.. https://www.thejc.com/lets-talk/all/pm-corbyn-invites-russian-troops-to-britain-1SDI29qCGKXgsbeHXNQgrr

  4. Of course its probably also partly racism. Ukrainians being "white" christians, but it is closer to europe and a democracy. Somalia and africa in general: do BLM as much to the news reporting wars?..... The oil and weapons trade betwwen UK & Saudi so Yemen is overlooked..... Yemen proxy war between Saudi (seen as western allies 😐) and Iran (allied with russians in Syria) Shia Sunni internal civil war also Israel gets abit a free pass due to history...
  5. Think someone on here worked out the initial cost of the (then available) small scale retorts wasn't worth the larger investment over using a ring kilns taking into acount the bonus of the increased yield of retorts but the negative increased cost & the estimated retort/kiln lifespan/number of burns?

  6. Not making headline news anymore but is still reported..... Old news as its stuff thats being dragging on for many yrs V an invasion thats only days old. Also the large scale of the conflict and the associated impacts on NATO europe UK etc So I don't think its that confusing, also no reporting or news channel is un-bais or agenda free etc. Headline news is a only a limited curated selection of what they think is most relevant. Just checked last US airstrike in Syria was 3 yrs ago?

  11. The NLAW Missiles The U.K. Rushed To Ukraine May Only Be Useful In Desperate Circumstances WWW.FORBES.COM The airlift of anti-tank missiles demonstrate London’s support for Kyiv.

  12. Looks to me that it may be the right shape to hold a fuel/oil spout?
  13. Many in Finland and Sweden must now be now re-thinking wether to join NATO?

The relative weakness of this element is the difficulty to step back or a kind of boldness that may prompt you to do foolish things. 😏

  18. Iv'e come across a few saw users who aren't numerate or bright enough enough to calc the oil needed for a 5l fuel can properly and who just randomly add a "dash of oil". Other who will only buy the one shot things to avoid "confusion". Best not to use use other peoples mix unless you are certain etc..... Assumptions are the mother of all....
