The Saudis and Israelis were discussing overfly rights and cooperation against Iran ten years ago. Undoubtedly they've had the groundwork laid for this sort of cooperation for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's not as irrational as trying to get Mexico to pay for building a wall, but it's up there.

To where, Russia? Why not buy Canada while he's at it? He's accepting Global warming now? Even with melting ice caps those routes would be closed half of the year. Is that really productive? It's not the Panama Canal. Another stupid idea to deflect another stupid idea is my guess. Edited August 21, 2019 by ShadyBillsFan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The notion of a soon arriving Ice Age was pushed very heavily back in the 1970's. I remember reading about it in the school provided science periodicals. Probably still got the darn articles someplace as I seldom throw anything out. The same periodicals that talked about birth defects due to electromagnetic radiation from high voltage lines. Did your mother live near a Niagara-Mohawk line while pregnant with you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
