Rory, Your first paragraph reads as.... I did not say it.. but I did say it ... The fact that you look at all this as stuff as being , they want to destroy us, simply makes my case of you buying into the FUD and spreading it.
How about taking a more sensible approach..... People of the World want to live a good life in peace, it is the politicians of the world who will be out of business if that ever happens... and the Corporations who make millions of $ of profit on both sides will be shorted out.... so it is in their best interest to keep the FUD alive, and keep creating chaos. There is no one in the World who wants to destroy another person or another country who has not been incited to do so !.. You should read what you wrote, you justify your thinking with the same logic that you lay out as being wrong... but you appear to be able to do that because you are justifying to yourself that one entity is worse then the other entity, when both are involved in bad behavior. In regards to Trump, more power to you ..... we have a saying .. be careful of the devil you seek vs the devil you know.... :) Faisal Imtiaz Snappy Internet & Telecom 7266 SW 48 Street Miami, FL 33155 Tel: 305 663 5518 x 232 Help-desk: (305)663-5518 Option 2 or Email: [email protected] > From: "Rory Conaway" <[email protected]> > To: [email protected] > Sent: Monday, March 21, 2016 9:00:04 PM > Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Baicells Interview > I didn’t say that the Chinese government has 99% of the companies under their > thumb.
