Sorry countjimmoriarty, that's just part of my nickname for scotland, the full name being "Chilly wet scotchland".
I was referring to the civil wars that most people think of as "The English Civil wars". The trouble actually started in chilly wet scotchland because some people weren't too happy with some thing or other but others were happy with it and so an argument started and then this turned into a fight and before you know it all parts of the British isles were involved somehow. With english, irish, scots and welsh soldiers on both sides fighting. Mostly fighting in England, but scotland also saw battles.

Less than a decade after the United States exited Vietnam with its dignity in tatters, the Soviet Union intervened in Afghanistan AKA "the graveyard of empires." Perhaps, the authorities reasoned that a long contiguous border would allow a modern industrial nation to easily overpower a Third World nation. One more name was added to the list of empires come to grief in that god forsaken dust and rock pile inhabited by blood thirsty tribal peoples who only seem to agree that killing each other must cease when there are foreigners to kill instead. It is to be hoped that our nations are lead by wise and intelligent men capable of absorbing the lessons taught by miscalculations of other leaders. Sadly, I helplessly watched our troops inserted wholly without reason into the 1300 year old Muslim Shiite vs Sunni sectarian conflict shortly after we had commenced upon our own invasion of the above mentioned "graveyard of empires." So, our wise leaders have succeeded in destabilizing the entire Middle East and created a training ground for an entire generation of homicidal fanatics to rain death and destruction on innocent people all over the planet. I am not receiving much assurance from our recently elected Commander in Chief that he has plans to extricate us from past failed policies. I live in a twelve story building. On most days, I do not trust myself to go to the workout and laundry facilities on the roof. |

How would you know? Your fake-news like CNN & BBC don't tell you what's happening. All you're told is drivel, and the worst thing is, you believe it

The BBC only had a good name when it was competing with Goebbels. That's the source of the BBC's reputation. Wow!! BBC better than Goebbels -- must have thrilled everyone. But it didn't say the truth or what it knew even then, and that's a fact On a lighter side, BBC makes good entertainment shows. I don't trash them completely. It's just world news where they're so appalling, like CNN-level |

I have learned a thing or two from RT for which I am genuinely grateful - but I am fairly sure that on a worldwide, 24/7 scale the BBC has earned a better reputation than most. Would you at least concede that much? |
