mhaze,

Who tells you what to think?

cont'd ...

The LA Times article may be over a year old but the
facts dealing with things that have happened and
are valid and relevant.

Try again.

SR

Once again you have cocked it up.

The graph from the FT clearly shows that while Sweden's infection rate has dropped dramatically over the last 2 months, those of Denmark, Norway and Finland and pretty much the rest of the world is ramping up.

Sweden's economy grew by 0.1% in the Q1 and lost about 8% in Q2 which due to its export-driven industry was almost entirely due to the collapse in external demand while its domestic market is relatively intact, its industries and most schools remaining open.

As for the relative success of Norway and Finland, both of which are tiny countries for which control is easier, the initial successes are looking less stellar now.

Well there were precious little by way of facts in the article. Plenty of assertion but few facts.

But much of it has been shown with time to be rubbish. The Burisma claims have been shown to be rubbish by the impeachment trial and the recent disclosures.

And the assertions concerning the Trump foreign policy have been show to be rubbish by the recent Abraham Accords and the Balkan peace initiatives. BTW have you heard that Kosovo/Serbia are talking of renaming a lake after Trump to recognise his peacemaking efforts? I'm sure the LA Times will cover it for you (grin).

Mhaze,

Are you sure that it's a lake ? Not a swamp ?

mhaze,

I've learned that it's important to know when
to stop arguing with some people and simply
let them be wrong.

Kosovo has named some of their best boulevards after
names of other US politicians -
President Clinton, George Bush, Senator Bob Dole,
Madeline Albright, and others. Albania has done
the same.

The government of Israel has renamed multiple sites after
the Donald as well, including Donald Trump squares in
Jerusalem and Petah Tikva and a community in the
Golan Heights - "Trump Heights". They are also proposing to
name a new train station in Jerusalem - "Trump Station".

And who knows he may even get a Nobel Peace Prize.
We'll have to wait and see.
Politics is so much fun - especially for the winners.
And of course Trump is a winner who can do no wrong in your
eyes. And I guess that is your fact (not assertion).
