that would be a positive, then.

EU was born to 'screw' US, Trump says President Donald Trump said Wednesday that the European Union was born to "screw" the United States, laying bare his hostility to the longtime US partner as he detailed new tariffs.

Is geo-narcissism a word? The delusion that everything everywhere at any time was or is, in the end, only ever about you. www.france24.com/en/live-news...

Maybe I’ve become more cynical with age, but it’s curious how Russia re-engages with peace talks whenever there’s the whiff of possible new US sanctions

Expect more of this. I was in Brussels for a few days talking to people. Striking how some of the most Atlanticist/ US oriented people I know have made a full 180. Remains to be seen if they can turn the tide. But the days of European trust in the US seem well and truly over.

Nederland bijna net zo slecht als de Engelsen. Lieve hemel, dan ben je diep gezakt.

Particularly when so many Israelis have opted to find well-paid jobs in Berlin, London, Paris and other centres of a supposedly dying Europe

Theo Francken krijgt gezelschap.

Wat het Kremlin, Geert Wilders en de anti-abortuslobby met elkaar te maken hebben

Luister voor voorbeelden en een uitwerking hiervan vooral deze aflevering met de onvolprezen Huib Modderkolk, Annieke Kranenberg en Jelle Postma: open.spotify.com/episode/6GZz...

The demise of the BBC is also a loss for civil society beyond Britain. The BBC of old had a huge influence across Europe where public broadcasters would buy and air these programs or be inspired to make them themselves (sadly, Brits rarely if ever bought European programs in turn).

with the key-word 'appears'. I have stopped believing anything these people say because they will say anything.

that is a truly great proverb.

I completely loved Freedom. Both highly intelligent and deeply felt.

They are flying robots. We really must stop using the word 'drone'. It sounds far too innocent.

tjonge Samuel, dat lijkt me echt niet makkelijk. En wat kan het een klap zijn als mensen zo onbeholpen, onhandig of ongevoelig reageren. Ik hoop dat ze het alsnog laten doordringen en in 2e instantie je alsnog de steun geven die je nodig hebt. Zoek ook professionele hulp, die hebben ervoor geleerd.

same is true for European journalists and opinion makers. The US has gone off the deep end and we need to start thinking for ourselves.

There is a body under each of these crosses. These American service men gave their lives to save Europe from itself. Now the American government desecrates their memory. It is very painful.

I suspect he is Belgian, probably Wallone. They do surrealism like no other.

Imagine an EU-wide government shut down in its 6th week leading to serious disruption of air traffic. We would not hear the end of it in Anglophone media.

Tell me again these are not Europeans. Ukranians are incredible. They are giving their lives to belong to Europe and they protect us from the Russians.

incredible that these guys have a massive hard on for a country that, if it were a state, would rank behind kansas in terms of wealth and which would be a total backwater if it weren’t economically integrated with more functional countries

A fantastic film. Best seen on the big screen, without any preconceptions (or reviews in your mind).

but they went through an occupation, either during the war or after.

Ao'n prutser. Integer, ja gelukkig. Hardwerkend, evident. Maar gewoon te klein kaliber.

Voor al die sukkels bij de VVD, Elsevier, de Telegraaf en WNL die denken en roepen dat echte kerels gewoon geld verdienen door olie en gas te boren, en softies zich verliezen in linkse hobby's zoals zonnepanelen en windmolens. Ignorant fucks.

Maakt niet uit waar Luyendijk over praat: het is altijd interessant. Én leraren: bewust géén gebruik van powerpoint. Verder kraakt hij ook nog even groepswerk voor studenten af: "Ik kan niet samenwerken. Óf ik doe alles zelf, óf ik maak de anderen dood."

As my British publisher would say: we can forgive you for being wrong, Joris, but not for being boring. My German publisher said the exact opposite.

that sounds about right.

The maffioso in the White House is dropping all pretences.

komt 't online?

so many from Romania! I had no idea.
