    Was on a Royal Caribbean cruise a year ago. Ship was filled with like a thousand Indian tourists that flew into Singapore just to take the ship. You'll be surprised, the MSM doesn't talk much about it. I don't think I'll be interested to take a cruise now, not when I need to wear a mask throughout the journey and take a nasal test before the trip.

    Appeasement does not work. Has history not taught us anything?

    In Australia we have tried appeasement over the decades, we always get a "It's a good start" type response....and a bit of a reprieve for maybe a couple years....and then they come back and agitate for more next time. It does not end.

    Of course you get more of what you incentive. No is the most powerful word.

    Trump is handing over the reigns to the next more extreme socialist. His term is over and his role with the Fed is over. Hes done the damage he was told to do.
    It's time to bring in the big guns now. The marxists.
    The republican party's fascist style of socialism is only the start.

    The voters here in america still think they have a choice haha. So pathetic.

    Same as how the blacks vote democrat, the party of slavery and the kkk. Clueless.
    But the promises of free stuff brings them in hoards.

    Can't see Biden being more extreme. He can't even remember names. Harris definitely is out. Maybe Pelosi will reign?

    Biden isnt the threat anyway. The orders he will receive from his masters are the real threat.
    Men like Biden and Trump have no problems with any of it.
    They lack the character or constitution to do the right thing for anyone but themselves and it should be obvious to everyone by now.

    The damage Trump alone has done under the disguise of MAGA is irreversible but will he ever level with america? Dont count on it.

    Traitors dont usually regret what they do until the noose is tightening around their necks.
    It cant come soon enough for me.

    These days I really with someone would export PEACE.
    The US-UN-EU used to be the "peace making" triangle. Until the "peace making" turned out to be rather "piece making" with Tomahawks.

    With the events in the last two decades, the US and the UN have lost their credibility.
    The EU has just lost it in the last decade.

    This is dumb, the world is headed for uncontrolled disaster. No-one seems to step in and the UN is cynically watching the warmongering.

    Greta won't stop this, she's crying in delirium for the polar bears.

    A number of factors are adding to a rally in prices for corn, wheat and soybeans, including floods in China and the country’s increased purchases to meet commitments under its phase one trade deal with the U.S. But Beijing is also keen to heed the lessons of the pandemic and ensure its stockpiles are plentiful enough to withstand supply issues, people familiar with the situation said last month.

    Some countries decided to bring their food purchases forward to ensure supplies in case the coronavirus rattles supply chains, said Abdolreza Abbassian, a senior economist at the UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization. Only a handful really sought to boost strategic reserves, such as Egypt and Pakistan, but they also had other reasons to do so including access to foreign currency, the size of domestic supplies and the need to keep domestic prices in check.

    Bad harvests in Turkey and Morocco added to their need to boost imports.
    --
    Agricultural prices have been on the rise as countries stepped up purchases, adding to demand from China and a drought in the Black Sea region. That has helped push the Bloomberg Agriculture Subindex, which measures key farm goods futures contracts, up almost 20% since June. Sugar prices have gained a boost as China replenished stockpiles, said Geovane Consul, chief executive officer of a Brazilian sugar and ethanol joint venture between U.S. agribusiness giant Bunge Ltd. and British oil major BP Plc.

    And China could still add more fuel to the fire next year. The biggest importer of everything from crude oil to iron ore and soybeans, is planning to increase its mammoth state reserves as part of its five-year plan.

    “China would certainly support commodities prices if it made such extensive purchases,” Commerzbank AG Analyst Daniel Briesemann said in a research note.

    Demonocracy is killing us slowly. It's just a more entertaining and seemingly "more free" version of a dictatorship.

    It's the road to Orwell's world.

    Kiyosaki also started saying that gold's and Bitcoin's price will drop when they find a vaccine.
    I find this logical. But until then, the economies will probably take deeper divers.

    Hopefully it won't be a Microsoft vaccine (designed by Bill Gates) :D

    On the other hand, it's worth checking out Mike Maloney and other permabull's arguments. It's interesting how they envision 3,000 $, 5,000 $ and 10,000+ $ gold in the near future. Their predictions too seem logical and credible.

    the only way to win is to get the gold regardless of what all other people said, acceptance or rejection
    when more and more people get it, just to get a little, there is not enough a little for everybody

    Armenia seems to be losing. It's interesting because Azerbaijan is Turkic. I've seen future predictions of a new Turkic empire. It will be interesting if Turkic nationalism rises across central asia with Erdogan as the leader.

    Israel sold drones to Azerbaijan, Turkey is helping openly with weapons
    so the drones have been working destroying tanks etc,

    but the last few days, many drones got taken down, even SU25 was down, id you see the fire fight, the plane crashed just few meters from the firing guy :)
    the US is secretly not revealing the position through NATO
    this is to put pressure near Russia, just like in Ukraine
    wonder what they would do if Armenia get involved, and the oil pipes go up in flames

    Erdogan is running out of countries to stir
