It is going to be extremely difficult for Marine Le Pen. In the first round, I have no doubt that she is going to win. But in the second round, all the mainstream parties are going to unite against her. I am still curious about who will be her opponent in the second round. If it is either Benoît Hamon or François Fillon, then there is a small chance for Le Pen. But zero chance if her opponent is Emmanuel Macron.

I see it the same way. Everyone is going to team up once Le Pen is in second round (thus, she is the only opposition to mainstream that French have). Not impossible, just very, very difficult.

Also unlike Trump. Le Pen has been part of party politics for some years now. People know her, where as part of Trumps appeal was the fact, that he was never politician in the first place.

I think this is the most important point. She and her family are part of the political world for a very long time.
Her father who founded the party is an outspoken antisemit. Pretty sure she is too.

Lol
You can't be part of the FN if you're not at least a bit racist. Can be against the jews, the blacks, the arabs or even better against all.
But you can't feel at home if you're not at least one of that ^^

The same can be said about the mainstream French political parties such as the Parti socialiste, Les Républicains, and En Marche!. You can't be a part of these organizations unless you are ready to hate the native whites.

I think its about the fact that the guy said only sex with kids who are not in puberty should count as pedophilia.

Man good lord how the trump fans loved and supported a gay pedo...
But well maybe trump will legalise sex with 13 year olds then he will be only gay without being pedo  Roll Eyes

Don't twist the facts. When a 13-year old white girl was lured and sexually abused by Muslims in Germany, you said that it was consensual sex (the post may be somewhere here in Bitcointalk). Milo said that SOME of the relations between younger boys and older men are beneficial. What he said was much more palatable when compared to what you said.

....we're currently bombing the shit out of Middle East and we've done that for years.

The problem here is you qualify citizens as "innocents" while they're not. People are not "innocent" they're responsible for what's happening right now!
Exactly who is the "we?"

Say there is a government and rebels in Syria.   Two forces at war.  One or the other enlists foreign allies.

So what?  Who is at war is (a) the rebels, with (b) the Syrian Government.

"we":
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foreign_involvement_in_the_Syrian_Civil_War

Any country involved on one of the two sides is responsible.
"we" is as much Russia as USA, even if they don't support the same side both of them are killing innocents civilians and destroying cities.

The Russian involvement in Syria can't be compared with that done by the United States. The former is operating in Syria with the permission from the democratically elected government of that country. On the other hand, the US went to Syria ignoring the Syrian sovereignty.

Trump did not attack the media as is spreading around on media. I watched the program live on cnn. He said " I am not against the media  but against the fake news media house". I was telling my friend that CNN is fake news because immediately trump said am against the fake news, CNN post on their breaking news that "Trump attack the media again".

This is not the first time it has happened. The liberal media outlets such as CNN, BBC, and MSNBC have intentionally misrepresented and lied about Trump's views, and have taken his quotes out of context. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Where is  Brad Avakian (Oregon Labor Commissioner) hiding now? Do we have any statements from him yet? It seems like he is having problems only with Christians. When Muslims harass the gays, it is perfectly halal.

Yeah... I knew it. When Obama and the Democrats do it, it is all for the greater good. When the Russians do it, then it becomes foreign interference in the American elections. Not surprising since 99% of the voter fraud in the US is done by the Democrat party.

religion in general is shit

I agree. But Semitic religions (especially Islam and Evangelical Christianity) are more so. On the other hand, the oriental religions (Buddhism, Hinduism, Shintoism, Taoism.etc) are by and large very peaceful.
21908  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why do you think Trumps supporters still love him? on: February 27, 2017, 02:15:56 AM
I dont there were any trump supporters at all .the way he is trying to execute everything in hos own , i personally dont support him at all .not all immigrants are bad and u are opposing it in such a way would bbbbe horrible.

Trump never said that all the immigrants, especially the legal ones are bad. He is only acting against the illegal aliens, and those who hail from certain countries such as Yemen and Syria, who are more prone to terrorist links.
He says nothing specific. We can only guess what he specifically meant. Personally, I think that he is against all immigrants, because he accuses them in that they're taking jobs away from Americans. What difference to him is a legal migrant or not?

He is more concerned about companies shifting their factories away from the US, and about those illegal immigrants who commit violent crimes. These two are his topmost priorities. He is not much against the legal law abiding immigrants.

wow such a great news to wake up to...hm, last couple of big events had islam as a partial or main thing. Why's islam so popular all of a sudden?

But this... I don't know, it's stupid... Maybe they're trying to fix the migrant situation like this..

In the Western nations, the leftist liberals have always used Islam as a tool to counter the conservatives (who mostly rely on Christian values). This explains the undue importance given to Islam by the mainstream media and politicians.

All they did was block out cancer, this does not damage press freedom.
Unless they also blocked the Associated Press and Reuters, which are some of the very few unbiased media outlets, THEN it'd be a problem.

The Democrats have always considered the Associated Press (and especially its diplomatic writer Matt Lee) as a thorn in their flesh. Also, you must watch the former state department spokesman John Kirby bullying Gayane Chichakyan of the RT, to get a better idea of the intolerance shown by the Democrats to the media.
21911  Economy / Economics / Re: Long term OIL on: February 26, 2017, 11:22:06 AM
OPEC's pledges to stick to allocations might not have that much impact, if the US boosts output.
The price seems to be dropping now.
http://www.reuters.com/article/us-global-oil-idUSKBN163059

The American frackers don't have the flexibility which Saudi Arabia and Russia enjoys. Their rigs are located in complicated terrain, and it takes some time to either start, or to shut down the pumping of crude oil. Finding the labor force is another hassle. If they pump crude oil at full speed now, then the oil prices will crash and their revenues will take a hit.

Yes and no.
The US frackers are preparing for trumps US oil independence. Of course they wont be able to compete with the sauds, russia or iran except in the case trump will enact a tariff for importing oil - which he said he will.
Slapping an import tax on foreign oil is going to anger a lot of Americans. It isn't going to make American oil more competitive by magically reducing the cost of it. It's going to drive up the cost of oil domestically because we'll be using more domestic oil which costs more to produce. That cost will go straight to consumers. It's not a practical solution, and if he tries t he's going to find it politically untenable.

Trump never said anything like this. He said that he may impose a tariff on the imports from Mexico, including crude oil and refined products. But if such a tariff is imposed, then the American consumer will just purchase Canadian crude instead of the Mexican crude.

- It's completely out of hands of banking system and goverments

This is a bit complicated. I would say that gold is NOT 100% immune from confiscation by the government. There is a strong chance of this happening, if you are holding paper gold (ETF). In case you are holding physical gold, then the chances are lowered, but it is still not 0%.

Bahahahahaha lmao omg I am actually laughing out loud at work, people think I am crazy.  THE MOST PEACEFUL BHAHAHAHAHAHA omg wow. just wow.

If you took the time to read whole OP you would have seen it's not a real statement Wink

It's just a hoax, and anyway I don't see why UNESCO would make any statement about a religion status.
That's not its role.

Yuuup that's right. Talking about religion, especially something that would put one over the other, would generate much controversy and i think unesco people are smarter to think about that. There's no basis as to which is better or which is more peaceful. Violence is already in human's nature and it doesnt matter which religion you belong to.

The article was first published in some satire site, but it was soon copied by the mainstream news papers in various Islamic nations (especially those in Pakistan). This is not an isolated incident. Happens quite often out there.

Also no dogs will be left ISLAM will kill them all..
I rather have a dog in my country than a MUSLIM Wink..Much nicer  Grin

Pigs and Dogs are considered "unclean" in Islam (perhaps in Judaism as well)...
I have never met a Jew that didn't love dogs.

In that case I was wrong. But there are strong similarities between certain Jewish and Islamic customs (such as the use of halal/kosher meat, and circumcision). But then the Jews are now some of the most progressive people on the earth, while the Muslims are just the opposite of that.

Buzzfeed is pure cancer. CNN and BBC lost their value in my eyes, and I believe in a lot of people too. I was reading through some CNN headlines and boy oh boy is it stupid... They'll twist everything, it's gotten out of hand. You can't compare Trumps media situation with Hitlers or Stalins, it's a completely different thing.

Yes, we should only read things that agree with the president, we must be a good little comrade and not offend Dear Leader. Trump has been a trainwreck over the last few weeks - this is only good news for America's enemies.

I don't have anything against fair criticism. But the media went overboard, spreading lies and unsubstantiated rumors about the Trump administration. The best example is the recent order suspending immigration from seven countries. The media portrayed it as some sort of a Muslim ban.

Well this is what you got when you put someone like Donald Trump as President of US of A. Freedom of the Press? what?

So you liberals are suddenly going ballistic for the press freedom, right? Have you forgot the verbal abuse showered on Fox News and Breitbart News Network, for their pro-conservative views? You just can't have it both ways.
21917  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Why bitcoins illegal ???? on: February 26, 2017, 10:43:03 AM
Even if you use Bitcoins directly (for supermarket purchases, utility bills, buying gasoline.etc), it can be taxed. The government can just ask the retail chain to impose a surcharge on the Bitcoin payments. So if you are paying with BTC, there will be a 2% or 3% surcharge, and this amount will go to the government as tax.
Interesting point dude.
Some governments and countries recognize Bitcoin but they make a regulations that they will benefit it like inputting taxes from exchanges.
that's right they are panning to put taxes with exchange so they can benefits with btc, might be much better instead of banning bitcoin we should be happy if government will place some actions to make some earnings too like taxing local exchange in our respective countries in this way adoption or recognizing bitcoin will be much possible in every nations.
If bitcoin will be used in unlawful transactions, the major governments will be forced to either make all for the ban.

If a majority of the coins are used for illegal transactions, then I will agree. But if just 1% or 2% of the total coins in circulation are used for illegal purposes, will you support the ban on bitcoin? It is not fair.

If you have the right skills, then you can earn decent amounts of money in the third world nations also.


You can even earn a considerable amount per month, but the problems that these third world countries have makes their money become nothing,

In my country has bumpy roads, has water problems, energy problems and poor quality health system, lack equipment for everything.

Why the hell would someone living in the US come out and live in a country like mine? I would honestly call that person crazy.

I see some American citizens coming to live here and I can not understand why?

Actually, it is not that hard to comprehend. In the US, if you are living in a metro city such as New York or Los Angeles, even if you are earning around $5,000 per month, that may not be enough to cover the expenses. On the other hand, if you are living in a developed nation such as Thailand or Costa Rica, your monthly expenses will rarely cross $2,000. The remainder can be saved for future use.
21919  Other / Politics & Society / Re: The end of Western civilization on: February 26, 2017, 05:51:00 AM
Oh nice this film is really interesting,it shows one part of true western civilization is really failing this years.I like films like this and every other type of films especially horor movies.

I would use the word "horrifying" rather than "interesting". The death of the Western civilization is bad news. And it will be even worse, if it is replaced with a Caliphate which work as per the stone-age customs.

Not sure Caliphate will replace Western civilization.
I don't think the main enemy is the Muslim world, they're too weak. It's like the French (Gaulois, don't know the English word for that sorry), Romans focused on them for long but the real enemy was behind!

What the Muslim world lacks in technology, they makes up for that in manpower. As per the Islamic traditions, there are two types of Jihad. The first one is direct Jihad. In this, non-Muslims are raped and murdered, so that a part of the "infidels" accept Islam, others are reduced to slave labor and the remaining flee to other non-Muslim lands. Indirect Jihad is different. The followers will target vulnerable children of the infidels with drugs and alcohol, and simultaneously increase their population through demographic jihad. A perfect example is here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotherham_child_sexual_exploitation_scandal

Sorry but your answer is reaaaaaaaaaaaally stupid :/

You're actually saying that Muslims are in fact organized in order to takeover our countries through immigration? ><

Immigration is a part of the tactic. Infidel nations will be converted to the Caliphate in three ways:

1. Immigration of Muslims to the infidel nation
2. Conversion of infidel women to Islam
3. Demograohic Jihad by the Muslim women

Drinking alcohol is no good at all .its just a waste of money .and i even ask myself why the hell alcohol drinking was started ? It is so stupid . Even when i drank wine or any other drinks it didnt effect me in any way .

Alcohol is just another food item. And don't call it a waste of money. If you call alcohol as a waste of money today, then tomorrow you will say that caviar, foie gras, and Beaufort cheese are a waste of money.
