Donald Rumsfeld is currently doing the rounds on the US media circuit plugging his autobiography “Known and Unknown“. Last week one such appearance was on the Opie And Anthony Show, where comedian Louis CK happened to be a guest. “Louis”, going completely off-base, repeatedly asks the former US Defence Secretary […]

Now it’s just getting bloody stupid. There have been rumors in the past about Libyan leader Moammar Qaddafi’s Jewish roots, and now it seems to be confirmed. Israel National News TV met with Gita Boaron, who claims that the Libyan dictator is indeed Jewish and that she is a distant […]

We have heard the politicians defending how they’ve gone about the extraction (NEO) of British & other nationals from Libya. Fox was quizzed on Radio 4’s today program about whether it would have been a good thing to have still had HMS Ark Royal & some harriers available to park […]

Beccles: Firefighters called to report of person trapped under sofa A confused resident called out fire […]
