Should expect him to release more than just IG teasers for one thing. By now he must have accumulated enough photos to publish 4-5 books devoted to Candice alone

Jerome Duran captures the best of Candice. But its very rare for him to give us anything more than a glimpse
Thanks for the updates everyone I'm surprised we have yet to see pics from the wedding
Time magazine asks Trump to remove fake covers from display at golf clubs Framed Time cover featuring president and the headline ‘The Apprentice is a television smash!’ has reportedly been seen hanging at five of Trump’s clubs At the top of the page, in capitals, was the proclamation: “TRUMP IS HITTING ON ALL FRONTS … EVEN TV!” The cover was reportedly on display at four other golf clubs owned by the US president. The image, dated 1 March 2009, had never run in the magazine in any format, a Time spokeswoman said. The real March edition featured actor Kate Winslet.
Stunning!
Even the upload function is back on both sites. They're here to stay I guess

Ralph Nader: The Democrats Are Unable to Defend the U.S. from the “Most Vicious” Republican Party in History https://theintercept.com/2017/06/25/ralph-nader-the-democrats-are-unable-to-defend-the-u-s-from-the-most-vicious-republican-party-in-history/
Good Lord!
When it comes to craters, looking at the photos of moon is gratifying enough for me
Saudi Arabia is barely a traditional Arab country. Let it be understood from the onset that I dont romanticize the traditional arab society, but given the current mess in MENA that has far-reaching implications for global security, it is worthwhile pointing a few things out. Not unlike the Israeli state, Saudi Arabia exists as a profound contradiction within the greater region if not throughout, owing to its geogrphic significance, the Muslim world as such. A century ago, Britain, in a bold attempt to undermine the Ottoman Emperor system during WW1 colluded with this particular community from the peripheries (in terms of geography as well as islamic ideology) to enable their capture of the holy sites. During an appalling spectacle, these militia,ie predecessors of the later Saudi state, laid waste to many of the holy sites within the 'Hejaz region', thereby sowing the seeds of future sectarian conflict in the Middle East and Beyond. Over time, it has become almost self-evidet that Saudis enjoy bipartisan support from both sides of Atlantic NOT despite but because of their fanatical/millenerian beliefs. According to one interesting feature of their doctrine, 98% of the Muslim population are a mass of idol worshippers/apostates, masses that must be inculcated with the same set of paranoid beliefs. In instances where that may not be possible, brute force or extremist proxies will do the job. It is hardly coincidental that so many terrorist/vigilante groups that have brought their respective countries to the brink of state failure, in many cases precipitating the current refugee crisis, draw their ideological strength precisely from the Wahhabi/Salafi strand of Islam. I leave it to your imagination the nature of their views regarding other faiths. One might ask; how did such degenerates manage to carve such a large sphere of influence in the greater muslim world? To be honest, someone else carved it out for them, under the cover of 'fighting communism' of course, the perfect alibi.
You wouldnt think Palestinians are unique among people situated between Jordan River and Mediterranean that desperately need 'corrective action'?? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lavon_Affair https://theintercept.com/2017/06/06/fifty-years-later-nsa-keeps-details-of-israels-uss-liberty-attack-secret/ To our shared relief, Hamas or ISIS are still considered terrorist outfits, instead of being elevated to the level of a national army. Same cant be said of some other 'terrorist' groups who continue to wreak havoc throughout the world, yet at the same time enjoying the admiration of those situated in the most liberal corridors of the West. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiramis_Hotel_bombing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_David_Hotel_bombing
LOL
The Balfour Declaration is easily accessible on the internet. Could you point out exactly where it states among its objectives the urgent need to eradicate corruption and superstition among the Palestinian leadership?
^ Indeed its effortless in this day to find hyper-partisan nonsense like the above. What he's saying is demonstrably false and pernicious, even by the standards of 'internet advocay' which at its core tends to be incendiary. But I think its unfair to solely blame the internet for diatribes like the above, since such utterances, their depravity notwithstanding, originate from the power corridors of Washington, New York as part of the official state narrative, and astonishingly enough, keep reverberating in the academia as well. Let me start off by saying that any attempt to examine the state of Israel, without accounting for this dynamics of settler vs native, or citizenry vs a stateless people, is a blatently hypocritical approach, if not a dubious exercise altogether. It is no co-incidence ( and very rightly IMO) that academic/serious investigatios of the Nazi Regime, in order for the scholar to make his/her respective case, DONT place much emphasis on ACTUAL characteristics of the Jewish population under occupation. I sometimes do wonder what the landscape in academia would be like if more people attempted to account for the Nazi War-crimes in such vulgar way. I for one will never be the proponent of such an approach, nor do I have the time and patience for such antics. However, I'd be remiss if I didnt shed light on this scarcely analyzed aspect of Israeli State/Society. In view of the acrimony I may risk arousing by stating my own opinions on the matter, let me instead rely on two figures, each from the opposite side of the.... political spectrum, for lack of a better term Zygmunt Bauman in 2011: Elsewhere, Bauman said in defense of his notorious 'comparison' of West Bank with Warsaw Ghetto: Avraham Shalom, former head of Shin Bet ie the Israeli NSA. He felt no hesitation in admitting on-camera that his organization has been guilty of physically torturing Palestinians, at times resulting in deaths. However he once made a very candid admission: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2309788/
