Right. Of course borders can be closed. Just try to sneak into Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia is the most shameless and hypocritical country in the whole world. First they triggered a civil war in Syria, by arming the Al Nusra Front and the ISIS. And when people started fleeing from Syria, they refused to let anyone inside their country. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO You're saying that countries that are responsible for current situation should welcome refugees? Then why shouldn't Europe welcome them? You believe they had no role in the destabilisation of this part of the world? xD The Syrian civil war started in 2011, after Qatar and Saudi Arabia started providing weapons for the Islamic terrorists there. The NATO (including some of the European Union nations) started their involvement in 2014, and it was mostly restricted to aerial strikes. |

Ethanol may be cheaper than gasoline, but there are drawbacks. Burning 1 gallon of ethanol fuel gives 34% less energy than burning the same amount of gasoline. Its energy content is about 70% of that of gasoline. Also, current version of the motor engines will need upgrades to make them work with ethanol fuel.
In my country, as fuel for the car is very widely used gas. It does not require engine modifications, and gas costs 2 times cheaper than gasoline. Bioethanol will not stand such competition and its production does not make sense. Usage of LPG or CNG in cars require engine modifications. And unlike ethanol, LPG/CNG is not considered as 100% pollution-free. And although CNG is slightly cheaper than gasoline, I don't think that it can be 50% more cheaper than gasoline. |

There can be arguments for and against starting a war against China right now.
The argument favoring a war with China is that their technology is rapidly improving and after a few years it will be really difficult for the Americans to defeat them militarily.
The argument against the war is that China doesn't have the balls to invade Taiwan or Japan. Even in the distant future, the scenario will remain the same. Then why waste so much of funds and manpower in a new war?

Of course racists in America too much, but for India it is really new. I did not hear.
You don't hear about it, because you were not a victim of racism in India. Anyone who is not brown skinned faces extreme racial prejudice in India. It doesn't matter whether you have white skin (Europeans), yellow skin (Mongoloid) or black skin (Africans). If you are not brown, then better avoid India. |

Hi guys. Just wanted to know whether drinking is good or bad for our health...first of all i drink every weekend because i feel refreshed after a heavy week of work.. After i drink i take a lot of food and have a nice sleep....I do not have any kind of headache or anything after drinking but will it affect me in the future.... My dad almost drinks everyday right from his childhood may b at the age of 18 but my dad is healthy and strong even after drinking so many years... Thanks to god for that....... Any way, When it comes to your health, is it better to drink or not to drink?
Feel free to unwind if you are stress with your work. Drinking alcohol is relaxing but don't drink too much. Too much has a negative impact like next day hang over. My dad is a drunkard since he was on his college days. I'm not sure about the status of his internal organs since upto now he still keeps on drinking. His sweat smells like alcohol. But, I'm still thankful with God that he is still alive. Hopefully he will live longer even though he keeps on drinking. It depends on the individual. My grandfather was a heavy smoker (started when he was fifteen or sixteen years of age), and he lived up to the mid-80s. I don't smoke, and I drink very rarely. But I would consider myself very lucky, if I could live up to 80. |

If they are tapping the Whatsapp messages of the Islamic terrorists, then I don't object to it. But it seems that they are taping the phones of every single Whatsapp user. What if this data gets hacked by some blackhat guy? It can be used for blackmail and harassment.

They showed China Bejing fog free which was cleared with lowing down car emissions for a week and not allowing coal burning during cold winter months. But then back to doing that once their presentation to their guest are over.
Then back to destroying their own people's health in the sense of saving money at the cost of people's lives and their countries environment.
All for a buck or two there. That's all they really care about.
I don't understand why the Chinese continue to operate these coal-fired thermal power plants, when they can easily get shipments of natural gas from their neighbors such as Russia and Turkmenistan. It would have been fine if China was producing all the coal it required. But now they are importing coal from Indonesia, Russia and North Korea. |

A show of fake news meant to keep such things on the front pages, by entrenched interests opposed to Trump's agenda.
Remember, Trump was voted in by the people of the USA. Those who were opposed to him -
Mass media, including the conservative Fox News
Democratic party
Republican party Trump want American corporations to give employment to the American people. He has already prevented some American companies from shifting their factories overseas. As a result of this policy, he has made some very powerful enemies outside the United States. |

And what does it change in the end?
You could say that they had been milking the whole Asia before the WWII (just like what the British Empire did), but it's been over 70 years after the war ended. But they have remained strong and likely became even stronger. What's the cause of that? As an aside, the Soviet Union had defeated Japan (twice) in local clashes even before Japan attacked the US in Pearl-Harbor. If there had been a full-fledged war between just the Soviet Union and Japan alone back then, the latter would be crushed within months. Likewise, today Japanese military is virtually non-existent but it is due to their loss in the WWII (remember they still lost that war)
Apart from limited influence in Korea and Manchuria, Japan didn't had much dominance over the rest of Asia. Somewhere I read that the Japanese military is even stronger than the Chinese PLA. I believe they would rank among the top 5 armed forces in the world, unlike the other US allies such as Germany and the UK. |

I guess, it is good to have both, half for gold and half to bitcoin, because even if the gold is not increasing rapidly like bitcoin, for sure gold remain on earth no matter if bitcoin drop and crashed down.
i think gold is best option for those who have a big amount of money and they want to save it, then they can take both the option, but those people who do not have enough money then they can go with bitcoin only, because investment is too much important than saving. Even if you have only a small amount of money, it is possible to invest in gold. With ETFs (paper gold), it is very easy. You can purchase gold ETF units for small amounts such as $5 or $10. If you want physical gold, then you can purchase 0.25 gram gold coins for around $18. |

But at present, the US population is growing at a rapid pace, naturally. The births still outnumber the deaths by around 1.4 million.
This may be true for some short period of time, but in long run it will follow fertility rate. BTW, most growth comes from latinos and not whites. In Western Europe the same situation - most births comes from immigrants. But then the question is, what is the need for further immigration, when the population is already growing by 1.4 million per year? IMO, the government should improve the living condition of those who are already living in the US, before bringing millions of third world citizens to the country. |

Well, what do you believe about Evangelical Christians? Same conservative stance, but with Jesus on deck.
Apart from a few crazy sects such as Jehova's Witnesses and criminal organizations such as the New Tribes Mission, I don't think that the evangelical Christians are leading a life outside the mainstream society. They are well integrated to the general population. |

What percentage of Muslims are terrorist, out of the whole? Or more importantly, where are these jihadist sons of bitches come from?!
Let me help.
Information from Terrorism in America After 9/11 found that 190 US-born citizens have been charged with, or died while carrying out, jihadist terrorism since 2001.
That number tops the list and far outstrips illegal immigrants (eight) and refugees (twelves).
So, by your logic, are all Americans terrorists? Just 190 Americans charged with terrorism? France has sent close to 4,000 people to the Islamic State ever since 2011. The figures for the US may be slightly lower, as it is difficult for American citizens to travel to Syria. But the number of the ISIS sympathizers may be 100x or 1,000x of the number who have travelled to Syria. |

I think president duterte should not be making any reaction on that, the world will see how onion skinned he is. Nothing is wrong with that, even other known personalities have those kinds of videos, it's more like an entertainment and not intended to annoy anyone.
Usually his fans will be the one to first to react to it.
In the Western nations, the politicians are frequently targeted by comedians. Remember what happened to Sarah Palin in 2008, when she was on a VP ticket against Obama/Biden? The Hollywood oligarchs even made a porn video mocking her (Who's Nailin' Paylin?). |

Recently there was a case when in Ukraine, Russian troops shot down a civilian Boeing.
I heard that it was the Ukrainian troops who shot down the Boeing, using the Buk anti-air missile. Didn't came as a surprise, as the Kiev regime has already killed many thousands of civilians in the Donbass using indiscriminate shelling. |

It's reasonable to ask that question to one of those damn evil clerics that Muslims think can answer and interpret all questions relating to the Koran. I only answered directly a ridiculous question by Greenbits about "which part of Sharia law do I object to."
Of course, many other parts are extremely objectionable. But the point of my comment is that the Koran and hadiths attempt to control an individual's life down to the most minute detail.
I'm not kidding about this, and they don't want to tell you about it or let you find out about it.
A religion is meant to provide motivation, hope and compassion to the humans. But if it dictates each and every fine details of our life, by saying that we should do this, and we shouldn't do that, then it can no longer be called a "religion". It is more like enslavement or servitude. All of the Abrahamic faiths have pretty rigid tenats to follow, if you are Orthodox/traditionalist/conservative. I think Judaism has it the worst. Would you consider the practice of Judaism slavery? They have very strong edicts on diet, appearance, and behavior. In fact, being the stewards of the old convenant, I would say they probably had the worst of it. The Lord was quite specific in the covenant he has with them. Ultra-Orthodox Jews are only a small minority (<10%) of all the Jews, and the progressive Jews doesn't enjoy a cordial relationship with them. And from what I have heard about the Ultra-Orthodox Jews, they are as bad as the Muslims. |

Nominally, Arabs are caucasoid, even though their cognitive abilities has been lacking in last decades.
Only a minority of the Arabs are Caucasoid. And this minority is due to the heavy admixture of ethnic Berbers in North Africa, and white slaves in the Levant. The vast majority of them are Semitic, with a heavy African influence. |

USA have a good relationship with philippines , and Philippines strategic partners in the region of Southeast Asia
i think is news joke in portal online is not good
It was just a satirical TV program. Why lose your sleep over it? And Trump is someone who enjoys a good personal relationship with Duterte. These silly issues are not going to damage their friendship. |
