For me, personally, as an Australian, I would support Trump because he is less likely to make war and more likely to concentrate on America. His foreign policies indicate he wishes to move the massively expensive military operations out of Asia and that would be very very good for Asia. the Phillipine people don't want the US bases there...Japanese people don't want the US bases there...but America holds strong hegemony over them. Although Hillary and Obama talk of peace, they are currently waging war in 6 countries, and they are not dropping billions of dollars of bombs on villages because it is somehow good for the villagers or the countries attacked...it is simply good for 'American interests' i.e. friends of the American Government. As the Chinese note : When it comes to America, don't listen to what they say, look at what they do. 280 million unexploded bombs still lying around in Laos, a country they say they never bombed at all. 280 million bombs. A good hundred million unexploded bombs lying around Afghanistan waiting for some kid to go for a walk. That's America...That's what they do.


As for Mosul, America (and Australia) are currently destroying that city of a million people thus creating 900,000 brand new refugees...why? To catch 7,000 ISIS people...and to fit in with the American elections. That's how seriously America values the suffering of others. That is Obama/Clinton foreign policy at work. It's disgraceful. It's sick. It's real.


Discussion with Mrs Fitz, from her view as a foreigner re the United States: As a foreigner, I would support Hillary Clinton...because there are many ways I could prosper in that country...but if I was an American citizen, then I would very much vote for Trump.


The Debate: The US ECONOMY: As for the domestic issues in the USA neither candidate can deal with the issues of the national debt and so don't like to talk about how hard the future will be for Americans no matter who wins. The 2008 GFC isn't even half way through yet. Trump & Clinton: Both Failed. The MILITARY: America is dwindling in power and importance simply because it has spent too much money for too long. The current war in Iraq is being funded by money America borrowed from China. More engagement/war (no fly zones) by Americans will simply invade destroy more places and people, cost billions and create horror and more hotbeds of terror.It is good to talk with people...Russians, Syrian Govt etc. Trump won. ABORTION: Domestic issues regarding abortion in America are domestic American issues that they will deal with in some way as best suits that chorus of secular/religious voices. They both won for their particular supporters, Clinton the secular, Trump, the christians. IMMIGRATION: Huge Immigration for America is a very good thing...as it would be for Australia. Clinton won.


The concern regarding the debate was that when it came to Syria, that Clinton would introduce a 'no fly zone'. A 'no-fly zone' means you destroy the enemy's airforce, radar defence systems, rocket systems, telecommunications systems, train stations, highways, and any government or non government building that could be used to provide air defence, thus mosques, hospitals and schools. This is what the US imposed no-fly zone did to Iraq, and to Libya. As ISIS doesn't have an airforce in any form, that having a 'no-fly' zone is simply madness and would allow ISIS to move about freely on the ground. The fact that she still sees war with Syria, and Russia, as a good outcome...and a no-fly zone IS real war, and that she'll persuade the Russians and Syrians to accept it...including destruction of the Syrian Government airforce, and the Russian missile bases just indicates how mad and deranged her real views are.


another favourite bike the Moto Guzzi Le Mans from around the same Time...much heavier and simpler than the Ducati.


Nice looking old Ducati ST4S ABS in red. I had the yellow ST2 with the 944 desmodromico engine and this one has the desmoquattro 996 donk. The only problem with the ST2, apart from the cost of maintenance if you rode it every day...was the handlebar position which was too lower for the touring side of the sport/touring set up, but this one has 2 inch handlebar risers which would make it much better.
