It's three minutes to midnight you fool.
“Even as the Iran agreement was hammered out, tensions between the United States and Russia rose to levels reminiscent of the worst periods of the Cold War. Conflict in Ukraine and Syria continued, accompanied by dangerous bluster and brinkmanship, with Turkey, a NATO member, shooting down a Russian warplane involved in Syria, the director of a state-run Russian news agency making statements about turning the United States to radioactive ash, and NATO and Russia repositioning military assets and conducting significant exercises with them. Washington and Moscow continue to adhere to most existing nuclear arms control agreements, but the United States, Russia, and other nuclear weapons countries are engaged in programs to modernize their nuclear arsenals, suggesting that they plan to keep and maintain the readiness of their nuclear weapons for decades, at least — despite their pledges, codified in the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, to pursue nuclear disarmament.”
Disparage all you wish countdown, all you are doing is reinforcing mine and others opinion on your lack of foresight and reasoning.

Hillary called trump supporters deplorable.
Here's a video showing the awesome hillary supporters assaulting a woman who was protecting trumps Hollywood star that is childishly being attacked constantly. She's assaulted of course and laughed at. Where's trump at they shout when she's on the floor.

She looks like some sort of care in the community down and out to me. I couldn't make out any attacks on the star or any assault on the woman either, although she did seem to be snatching placards from people - did you link to the wrong video?Here's a video showing the awesome hillary supporters assaulting a woman who was protecting trumps Hollywood star that is childishly being attacked constantly.

Most aren't pro-Clinton; they're just anti-Trump. And they're too busy crying right now because she's got a good chance of losing against the worst presidential candidate ever.
Whilst I'm extremely Anti-Trump part of me is hoping he DOES get elected. Hopefully the electorate will then get what so many of them patently deserve.Newsweek claim to have information from an FBI insider on the latest announcement - http://europe.newsweek.com/hillary-clinton-emails-... .
They're suggesting that Clinton prefers to read printed emails and that Abedin would forward emails to her own (non secure) email accounts and print from there as it was easier than printing via the official account and systems.
Also claims none of the emails were in the current investigation were either sent or received by Clinton.
If (mighty big if as it's just the words of a claimed insider, with nothing to back it up yet ) this is true, then might just not be "as big as Watergate" after all.
Nate Silver's latest column is interesting - shows that Trump has picked up a couple of % support from the undecideds, despite (or perhaps because) he's had a relatively quiet week in terms of campaigning. Of course, this is before the FBI announcement, so be interesting to see what impact that actually has on opinion polls.

I'd be very surprised if that was the case. That has been public knowledge for a long time (in terms of the email scandal) - and wouldn't justify making a public statement about.They're suggesting that Clinton prefers to read printed emails and that Abedin would forward emails to her own (non secure) email accounts and print from there as it was easier than printing via the official account and systems.

I don't see how that can be the cause of all this fuss unless the FBI did an incredibly poor job the first time around

Reading the article I'm taking it that the "public statement" could be a reasonably simple matter of an FBI Director doing what he said/swore he would factually do rather than it necessarily being some kind of smoking gun/Watergate etc.mattyn1 said:
I really do not understand why it is a straight race between Clinton and Trump. There are more people on the ballot paper - the Libertarian for instance - who for me, despite not having a handle on foreign affairs, make much better candidates - which is not difficult.
Why are these - Johnson, Stein et al, not making more noise? Or are they, and it is just not getting reported in the UK?
Stein is an irrelevance. Johnson has received a lot of airtime here, prime time interviews regularly on cable news channels etc... Unfortunately he's proven himself to be a blithering idiot. Didn't know what or where Aleppo is, couldn't name a single foreign leader etc...Why are these - Johnson, Stein et al, not making more noise? Or are they, and it is just not getting reported in the UK?

i forget nothing. you are not making any points. on the subject of the discussion, at least understand the background, which is that clinton already claimed that isis is supporting trump. no outpourings of incredulity followed, as has done here, even though the logic/evidence was no more robust
There was no incredulity because it wasn't just Clinton's claim.Why ISIS supports Trump
Trump is the preferred candidate of ISIS
I ask Allah to deliver America to Trump
ISIS need to polarise muslims and convince them that the "West" is against them (a goal that they share with western far right elements) . Trump's comments help to achieve this.
There's another reason why Spunky's comments attract incredulity. He lies continuously. Only 4% of his comments are "true", whereas 51% are either False or "Pants on Fire"
http://www.politifact.com/personalities/donald-tru...
The man is a proven liar. By comparison Hillary has 12% which are false or mostly false. Not great but massively more honest than Trump.

he is "invading" countries where russian national defence strategy is being endangered, like Crimea where they have very important naval base for example
there was no way around that, he had to do it in fact any other russian president would have to do it or risk the military coup
What utter cobblers; there was never any threat to the physical security of the russian base in Sevastopol, nor any suggestion the new government would unilaterally seek to change the terms of the lease.there was no way around that, he had to do it in fact any other russian president would have to do it or risk the military coup

I'd vote for the one who is living in today's time scale and not the 90's, the one who has said they won't enforce a no fly zone over Syria and the one who has said they are more than willing to reopen a dialogue with Russia and talk with them rather at them.
