Most large countries can find a few regions with 5% of the people wanting to make their own country.

The help is only needed to make them loud.

The fact that Trump didn't refer to himself in the 3rd person on this post is evidence that this policy was created by his ghost-writer.

And it worked....

Yeah, I tried searching for it, but all I got where some sites with "20 best ghost car movies of all times"...

Wait, were we supposed to believe in things before AI?

Monitor connectors: "I'll destroy all your hardware before I give up connecting this stuff. You can put as much punishment as you need!"

Disk drivers: "Help! The user sneezed! The disk is lost!"

Oh, man... Make it quick, before the Donald decides to finish demolishing the entire building.

By any reasonable measure, the "Wester Civilization" started on either Iran or Iraq.

Culturally, anything west from India has to be "Western".

but the US has never won one…ever
