    The same applies to you.

    And stop being silly, Nobody is going to destroy the world we all live in. Not deliberately anyway.

    Nations with a certain level are untouchable.

    USA, Germany, Canada, France, UK, Australia, Russia, China, Japan

    are that level. Simply because teh technological level is so high, that weapons can be used in cataclysmic power.

    As for ending the world, if we face an enemy who wants destroy us, it doenst matter if the world exists after that. If we have to go, so can the rest of the world.

    The core point must be, to be able to take evrything down if we go, the rest will as well.

    Nothing I can say about the Aboriginals. They were here.....the Brits came and here we are. I have never heard PNG or Fiji complain. They are quite content with the assistance we give them. I think you are way off track there. Australia has a solid reputation in the Pacific.

    Of course it is a commercial hostile act as part of Trump's trade wars....but there is zero military aspect to it.

    So...don't step back....commercially. However.......Keep your huns* in yer pocket. *Now....to explain.....I am a two fingered typist. The 'g' and the 'h' buttons are right beside each other. I could have fixed that typo but decided to leave it as it's not a bad accidental metaphor.

    Dump Trump is the answer. No wonder Merkel has not invited the bloke to Germany. I wouldn't either.

    Yeah sure. I guess when you write ...igger you would also let the "n" stay infront even so you meant bigger.

    The slur we use for you guys is not so easy to mistype. We say Inzucht Inselaffen, which can be translated as inbred island monkey.

    I had a really good opinion about australians when i was there last year. I must say you pretty much ruin what i thought about your people.

    What it tells us is that Iran is a threatening force in the region and that shipping is not safe.

    No, it reminds us about the importance to push USA back where it came from.

    You aren't Iran, it's none of your business.

    If your attitude is common among Germans we should ensure that Germany gets no oil from anywhere.

    Do you have to be Iranian to be sick and tired of American bullying and threats? I am sure there are plenty of people in Germany who couldn't care less about Iran, but care about the fact that the US is saying: it doesn't matter that you signed a deal backed by a UN resolution; if I say you can't honor your commitments under the deal, you can't, Never mind the loss of billions of dollars of potential business deals for their companies and countries; the US posture adds a lot of insult to injury to boot.

    Oh now you want sanction Germany as well, not just Iran? You want that we dont get oil from anywhere? We get most our oil from Russia, Netherlands and Norway. How will you stop that? Attack our pipelines and oil terminals?

    Well you can't do business with terrorists and a country who wants to wipe another country off the map. Really America should not be allowing any goods in or out of Iran.
    So you're welcome for what we do allow.

    No I don't want that at all. I'm saying your attitude indicates that morally that's what we should be doing.
    My assumption however is that your just a neo nazi troll and that very few Germans think the way you do.

    Im not a socialist and the majority of Germans think like i do. According to polls over 68% see USA as biggest threat for peace. You have a more negative rating here than North Korea.
