The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

I can't tell who is Baghdad Bob.

The USian media said Iran only sent two people to Islamabad. Meidas Touch claims the Iranian delegation is far larger than the US delegation: Vance, his wife, Witcoff and Kushner, no professional diplomats, vs Iran bringing a flock of top people.

One thing in this piece I can believe: Trump the Magnificent bragging about all the tankers heading to the US, to bid against USians for the product that USian big oil has to sell. I'm sure US big oil is very pleased with the return they are getting on that $1B bribe they paid in 2024. (for those who didn't notice, WTI has been in a downtrend since 2022)

Apparently, the IAF has several 707s converted to tankers, so, theoretically, they could hit Islamabad, just as they hit Qatar.
