Interesting point. Although we do know the Vikings had at least some contact with Muslims. I forget his name, but there was an actual envoy sent to Sweden from one of the major Islamic courts. So the "Allah" script that was copied could have come from Muslims or Christians... or it could just...

I'm... not sure why this is a response to me?

Loads, we think. But weve been causing industrial changes to our atmosphere for even longer, so there ould be observers significantly further out that already know about us. My point was that no one has to actively signal anything. We're already actively signalling to anything that cares to...

The generally accepted theory is that "Allah" oçcuring on coins and clothing in migration period Europe was that it was copied as a decorative pattern, not as actual script.

It's really pretty simple. If you're going to use moralising and condemnation of others for political gain, that's a valid and venerable tactic. But... you'd better make darn sure you are absolutely beyond reproach on those issues, or you'll be exposed as a hypocrite with no credibility...

If you could rig up a generator to run off their wriggling and tapdancing, we'd solve renewable energy.

I don't know which news you were watching. Does it occur to you that maybe Trump gets more negative coverage than Obama because, you know, Trump actually does more negative stuff than Obama?

Again, it's not only liberals pointing out the double standards here.

Where were you for the last 8 years? Obama was attacked over every petty dumb thing, by Trump himself, often as not. Turn about is fair play. Your contingent did it for 8 years, now it's their turn. Maybe you guys should have considered the precedent you were setting, huh?

Um, no, the specific incident we're discussing.

Because of "reasons", obviously.

Talking and sitting through a flag lowering while all around people are standing and saluting? Sure.

Say what you like about Obama. Just don't expect people to not point out when you hold Obama and Trump to different standards, nor when Trump seemingly holds himself to different standards than everyone else. And here's some wild news for you... you ready? Not everyone pointing out Trump's...

Huh?
