Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
Maybe they're just playing games: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-39553250
Quote:
Spanish police have arrested a Russian programmer for alleged involvement in "hacking" the US election, Spanish press reports have said.
Pyotr Levashov, arrested on 7 April in Barcelona, has now been remanded in custody.
A "legal source" also told the AFP news agency that Mr Levashov was the subject of an extradition request by the US.
|
More interesting is that RT is the one linking it to the election:
Quote:
Mr Levashov's wife Maria also told Russian broadcaster RT that the arrest was made in connection with such allegations.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
Spicer being an idiot again: http://news.sky.com/story/calls-for-...apons-10834077
Quote:
White House spokesman Sean Spicer is facing calls to be sacked after suggesting that Adolf Hitler did not use chemical weapons.
Donald Trump's press secretary was discussing the chemical attack carried out by the regime of Syrian leader Bashar al Assad at his daily briefing.
Comparing Mr Assad to the Nazi leader, he said that Hitler "didn't even sink to using chemical weapons".
He later attempted to clarify his statement, saying Hitler had not used chemical weapons on his own people "in the same way" as Mr Assad had.
|
I mean of all the comparisons to use? He probably meant Hitler didn't deploy chemical weapons in the battlefield, i.e openly, but still. Stupid comparison given the history. Did no one think on it for a moment? Has he employed Ken Livingstone as a researcher?

It just came up on my Facebook page. Absolutely gobsmacked by his comments. That's an appalling comment to make.
Livingstone has lost it and Corbyn needs to kick him into the long grass. As does Trump with Spicer.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
It's just stupid really. There isn't any suggestion he was trying to be offence or play down what Hitler did but it does seem he and his staff aren't especially sharp. You would think they would pick up the implications of the statement. He response as he attempted to clear it up wasn't brilliant either by saying Hitler did not target this ‘own people’ was equally dumb.

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
Just a bit amateurish. Any intelligent person can see what he meant. Hitler didn't use it in the theatre of war. He didn't drop gas during the blitz or as far as I know at any other time.
Yes he/ nazis did far worse things not only in death camps, but also,in French villages all over.
Just amateurish, that's all.

Exactly.
He acknowledged and clarified it later in the same press conference.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-oCjNGPlQs (27 minutes in)
I wonder how many people trying to make political mischief over this had seen the full press conference? I had watched it earlier this evening, knew he'd fluffed it a bit but knew exactly what he meant.

I take it you had watched the whole press conference, not just the Facebook information before letting forth your righteous indignation?

Oh good grief is no one allowed to make a mistake in your world.
Corbyn needs to be kicked in the long grass along with his ex-lover Diane Abbott. Worst Labour opposition benches I have seen in years.

Amateurish and ill informed, hitler didn't use gas out of any respect for the art of war but because the speed of his advance and retreat would've meant he gassed his own soldiers (and their horses!), not even he was that mad and he had piles of it stockpiled iirc, this was a poor effort imo to try and make out assad was worse than hitler and wasn't necessary, they're both evil mass murderers, why try and grade them.
