    Brexit, for once some facts.

    You just answered your own question, of course I don't know. But what I do know is your increasingly childish interventions in a thread you have said that you strongly dislike and would like shut down. In the circumstances your posting in here is either irrational or intended to be disruptive. .

    I was specific, I said you attempt to, not that you succeeded. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    No, the reason you come in here is a dog in the manger attitude. The thread is no good to you, you don't like it, so you post here in an attempt to spoil it for others. Spoilt brat springs to mind. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Being fair isn't being wrong. I'm well aware of the spat between Eddiepj and d8veh/vfr400. What you won't know is that the first spat between d8veh and another member in pedelecs was with me years ago. The way he posted at me back then was in my opinion more extreme than with any other member...

    Agreed, and you've never attempted in any way to hide that you were once d8veh. Your old posts under that cancelled account name are now shown as by deleted member 4366. In both incarnations you've been a highly valued member, solving numerous technical problems on members e-bikes. .

    it's becoming a habit, it was a Mexican wall last time. They'll be asking us to pay for construction of a new port berth as part of Boris's trade deal. .

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    When Admin changed the access I found the Charging Post immediately the logical way, through the forums page, hence my posting that link which anyone could have used when seeing the Brexit word in the current threads listing. Also there are some other cycling forums with contributors who've...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think the attacks would subside sooner if we withdrew, since we in the West are in part causing them them. There are multiple facets to their source, commencing with the stupidity of our unprovoked attacks in the Crusades initially triggering their hatred. But at the root of the conflict...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    Indeed history of what we've caused in many ways I've long known. But it doesn't really matter any more, we can't undo the past so have to adopt the best course now. I think that's to detach ourselves from the affected regions and stop pretending to be their friends when we really aren't and...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    All true, but the USA isn't dependent on any one country's oil any more. It isn't the Iraqi government that's to blame for the power and water failings, that's entirely due to the US invasion destroying the infrastructure and the continuous disruption of conflict ever since preventing adequate...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think they could just persuade the Iraqi government to change their mind. Or on the other hand they could just use the Iraqi request as the excuse they've been looking for to get out of the region, both Trump's and US Congress wish. The Iranians could see that as victory, softening their...

    In answer to: 1) The US military were there to fight terrorism, national and international, in Iraq with the Permission and welcome of the Iraqi parliament that the USA set up. 2) Not so, number one above is the authorisation to fight a soldier of the terrorist combatants. 3) Anyone else if...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    The whole of Iraq remains a war zone for the US military who defend against attacks on themselves and Iraqis in any area of the country, the enemy not excluding anywhere, including airports. Iran is at war with the USA both by statements and actions. Germany wasn't at war with the UK in 1939...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    That is completely different and ignores everything I've posted. That would not be done on a war footing, so would be an assassination and neither the US president nor a retired general would be serving soldiers. This killing was done by the US in a US war zone against a serving soldier of the...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I think mention of human rights in any war situation muddies the subject. Either war is legitimate, thus excluding human rights in numerous ways, or human rights are paramount and no war is justified at any time in any way. There can be no such thing as human rights only applying at convenient...

    A regular soldier on active service engaged in war against the USA in the US war zone of Iraq, and known to be responsible for many deaths of US soldiers and civilians during his and his country's ongoing long term war against the USA. He was killed by his enemy while on active military...

    Brexit, for once some facts.

    I disagree, Twitter is not where international law is decided. The US president is the chief of their military. They presented this action to him for approval, he approved and they carried it out. Clearly at each stage it was not considered to be illegal. As I've repeatedly shown, the...
