Haha, I've heard this same joke before but with Ian Paisley, the unionist leader in Northern Ireland.

"How did you know that that would be a tragedy, if my plane were to crash?"

"Well it wouldn't be a great loss, and it definitely wouldn't be an accident."

It's a good one.

Yeah, there's a bit of a discussion about this further down the thread. Yahweh was originally some sort of god of war (and maybe storms? See the great flood), but as his worship became more prominent he assumed the attributes (and name, even) of the chief god of the pantheon, El.

a 5th of a bottle

No, a fifth is a bottle size in the US, it'd be a 750ml bottle outside of the US.

And the photo is from 1947, and the photographer was Walter Sanders.

This post is nonsense.

$451m in trade deficit with Russia just in January and February this year.

That's more than Lesotho for the whole of last year, but Lesotho had a 50% tariff applied.

Yes, $3bn worth last year.
