That Icelandic PM is probably really embarrassed to be caught banking at the same place as a bunch of Third Worlders. Are there even any Italians caught up in this?

Gammatron 64 posted:Man, I really hope they dig up dirt on Hillary, Cruz or Trump Without question. Every major corporation and government official in the West likely has their finger in this pie, including the ones you like and voted for. Whether anything actually comes of this is likely a no, simply because those same people and corporations own all of the media outlets with the widest distribution -- you'll see pundits pointing towards their opponents and stoking fires while downplaying their own involvement. It's incestuous. The only way to stop it is to burn down the whole thing and start over, but nobody wants to be the guy who throws the first molotov at a corporate headquarters.

The US and some large European countries especially have been angered by this "betrayal". It's no surprise that China and the UK are on these leaks.

Fojar38 posted:jesus gently caress how did i miss this loving post I think Europe as a whole should strive to have closer relations with China and India, since that's where the worlds economic and financial centers will be in a few decades. I don't honestly see how the UK has any other choice if they want to maintain their current status as one of the more powerful countries on the global stage. It's expected that some fringe elements will complain about this shift but it's clearly the best and most pragmatic choice they have.

Thanks. I didn't know that funding was increased. Good to see that the government realizes NASA's importance especially now that the competition is getting tougher.
