Hitler & Karl Marx. Thank you Germany.

[goaded]

@Hagar88 Hitler was Austrian.

[Hagar88]

What language do they speak in Austria? Is it Austrian?

[goaded]

@Hagar88 So you're English then?

[Hagar88]

Gaelic/celtic. Austrians are a German people just like Saxons, Prussians, bavarians etc. Germany only became a country in 1871. Before 1871, Austrians (specifically German-speaking Austrians) generally identified as part of the broader German cultural and political sphere, considering themselves "Germans" within the Holy Roman Empire and the German Confederation, with Austria often being the dominant German state, though they also developed a distinct Austrian identity due to Habsburg rule and their multi-ethnic empire. This changed after Austria's exclusion from German affairs in 1866 and the formation of a Prussian-led Germany in 1871, leading to a clearer separation of German and Austrian national identities.

@Hagar88 So you speak Gaelic?

[Hagar88]

Thanks to the penal laws many Irish dont and very few Scottish do. Many people used to speak Gaelic in the British & Irish Isles, they were called Gaels. Check the map.

I dont believe German was ever forced on Austrians. When the German Empire was being formed out the German Federation the king of Austria had the option of becoming its ruler but because he refused to relinquish his non German territories the crown was offered to the Prussian king.

Thanks @goaded for the MHO

[Hagar88]

Not the same. One is giving hers to the man who saved her country from a tyrant. Maybe if Knut Hamsun had given his medal to Churchill or FDR it would be the same.

[IamRight]

@hagar88 You are absolutely right

[Hagar88]

@IamRight thank you good sir. Glad someone can use logic and reason. A Venezuelan I work with has only came back to work on Monday he's been celebrating Maduro's capture all this time. He says Trump deserves the Nobel Prize as he's the only person thats done anything for Venezuelans in years

[goaded]

The regime is exactly the same as it was before Trump killed 100 people in Venezuela, apart from one person.

[Hagar88]

You liberals were talking for his removal at the start of 2024 and now trump has removed him 2 years later and tiu want him put back.
Would you bd opposed to Trump curing cancer?

[goaded]

Are you simply incapable of understanding other people's positions, or unwilling?

Maduro stealing his presidency (I bet Trump's just jealous) is bad. Invading another country and killing dozens of people to bring one person to "justice" is also bad.

[Hagar88]

If the Biden regime had done it you would have approved.

[goaded]

No, you're projecting. Did you approve of getting bin Laden? At least for that there was an AUMF.

[Hagar88]

Was there authorisation from Pakistan for the us military to have ground and air assets in their country. Bear in mind Pakistan was an ally for the US led war on terror. So Obama invaded an allied country.

[goaded]

Did Maduro organise an multi-pronged terrorist attack on the US killing thousands? Was Venezuela in any way connected to those attacks 25 years ago? How many people were killed in the Abbottabad raid? Was there a single person killed who wasn't directly associated with bin Laden?

We all know that Trump doesn't care about drug dealers, he pardoned Honduras Ex-President Juan Orlando Hernandez. He killed about 100 people in Venezuela including civilians. He's killed more on the sea. All of which was illegal, including under US law.

If Trump had extracted Maduro without bombing the shit out of Venezuela, there would be a lot less outrage.

[Hagar88]

There was much risk involved in Abbottabad raid, including a black hawk down situation and if it had failed theyd have to drone bombing the area to get Osama b4 he could escape. Osama son was killed and 3 children and 2 women injured. Fact is Obama invaded an allied country. Venezuela is a major NARCO state supplying drugs to the US.
3000 people died in 9/11 attacks, 100,000 Americans die each year from drug overdose.

[goaded]

Honduras Ex-President Juan Orlando Hernandez imported 400 tons of drugs into the US. Trump pardoned him. Trump does not care about drugs.

[AngryCarl2]

Fair play, I did not know that.

Sir Winston Churchill is famous for many quotes, some of which he never said. Here's one from the 2017 movie Darkest Hour.

Nice one!

If I were the Nobel Committee, I'd rescind her award. This woman's an idiot.
