Trump lies even when he doesn't have to. That's how he got where he is. But at the same time, he's also clever and decisive and intelligent, and also formidable and resourceful. Hillary was the same way, but in a much more evil way. She's literally the Wicked Witch of the West. No joke. So, if it hadn't been Trump, it would have been Hillary, and nobody in their right mind should want a witch in the Oval Office.

Just to clarify, do you believe Hilary Clinton is an ACTUAL witch? Because I've heard this from more than a few (R)egressives.

A modern day genuine witch, possessed by demon(s), full blown occultist and Satan worshiper. Like in those old comics where the bullets are magically redirected in mid air - nothing can touch her, because she's in the control of higher powers. Much higher powers.

This is interesting because I just read a few articles about the IRGC commander that gave the order to shoot it down - he says he had to make the call personally because there were 'communications issues' and he couldn't verify with his superiors.
UNCONFIRMED reports that the US had been running interference out of Qatar all day, and that the reason the Qatari Emir was in Iran this last day or so has been to pledge funds to the passengers' families.
describes the economics behind the 'oil wars', interesting read even though I need to draw some fucking diagrams or something to fully understand what he's talking about.
The following users say it would be alright if the author of this
post didn't die in a fire!
A Wikipedia editor called Philip Cross (@philipcross63 and later @wikipedianhidin on Twitter) has a long record of editing the entries of many anti-war figures on the site to include mostly critical commentary while removing positive information contributed by others. At time of writing he is number 308 in the list of Wikipedians by number of edits.
Wikipedia entries very often appear first in search results, and so for many will be the first and only port of call when researching something. People unaware of the political nature of the editing that goes on on the site, in this case supposedly by a single, dedicated editor, are being seriously misled.
As an active editor for almost 15 years, Cross is very familiar with some of the more arcane Wikipedia rules and guidelines (along with their obscure acronyms) and uses them to justify removing information he dislikes in favour of his own inclusions. Often in a very subtle manner and over a long period of time. Anyone familiar with the work of the people he targets will recognise how one-sided and distorted those entries become.
Cross is, however, much nicer to the entries of people he likes. Former hedge-fund manager and Iraq war supporter Oliver Kamm, and right-wing author Melanie Phillips, both columnists for The Times, are two examples.
On Twitter, where Cross is more provocative and antagonistic, he doesn't hide the fact that he has long-running feuds with many of his targets on Wikipedia.
Cross calls his Wikipedia targets 'goons'. The list includes anti-war politician George Galloway former MP Matthew Gordon-Banks, historian, human rights activist and former UK ambassador Craig Murray, investigative journalist Dr Nafeez Ahmed, Edinburgh University professor Tim Hayward, Sheffield University professor Piers Robinson, and media analysis group Media Lens.
How this behaviour doesn't fall foul of Wikipedia's rules, we don't know. Especially as his efforts, in addition to misleading the public, have serious consequences for the people targeted.

thats why you need audio articles. so that you can draw and look at diagrams while listening.
