Hi.
I'm Fred, a British chap but I live in Indonesia.
I keep hearing so much about how US politics work but I only have the poster's opinions to go on.
That in mind, I thought I'd see what I can find out from opinions on a US based forum or several.
I may ask awkward questions.
You're still gonna have posters opinions and a few interpretations so you'll still have to separate the wheat from the chaff. Stick around long enough and you should be able to figure out who's being straight with you and who's giving their "spin".
Good luck and welcome!
I'll try to be straight when posting so I'll state a few facts about myself in order to stop any accusation of hiding anything.
First - I'm a Muslim
After that.
I'm of the firm opinion that extremism (of any kind) is dangerous rubbish that causes nothing but death, destruction and misery.
I'm from a place called Barnsley in South Yorkshire, England. We aren't known for diplomatic skills even if I did go to school with British foreign secretary, William Hague.
I don't actually hate anyone but I'm seriously anti the government of Israel.
That's THE GOVERNMENT, not the people.
I've only met a few Israelis but I've liked all but one and shared meals with several.
I'm unsure I should mention the two pretty Israeli lasses I wanted to have sex with.
I have a really crappy humour and I get really sarcastic with fools.
I usually use a bouncing sheep avatar but the forum won't allow animated gifs so I've opted for an suicide bomber finding out his virgins aren't quite what he expected.
That should give you a clue as to my opinion of people who think they know better than Allah (or God if you like that name better - same thing).
My goal in life?
Stop hate and encourage understanding where possible.
Smile a lot and try to make people happier than they were before they met me.
When I'm allowed, I may post a few pictures of where I live.
