>>Chinese property and investment firm Dalian Wanda Group has agreed to acquire a majority stake in Legendary Entertainment, valuing the U.S. movie studio company at between $3 billion and $4 billion, according to a person familiar with the matter.
>>The move represents Wanda's latest bid to expand overseas and become a major player in the U.S. entertainment industry following its acquisition of AMC Entertainment Holdings, the second-largest movie theater chain in North America, for $2.6 billion in 2012.
>>Founded in 2000, Legendary has produced hits such as "The Dark Knight," "Jurassic World," "Man of Steel," and the 2014 remake of "Godzilla," as well as "The Hangover" film franchise.
Seems a smart move by China after Sony Pictures got blown the fuck out in 2014.
>>14192
Tell me about Dalian Wanda Group.
Why does he hold the majority stake?
Everything belongs to China now.

Ouchie. :(
I'm glad he'll lose his virginity though.

Yeah, everyone should do that at least once in their lives.

>he'll lose his virginity
Will he? Or is he just using a sex toy?
>We just want to heal our country with certain diseases. The previous government implemented a left-wing concept, as if the world had under the Marxist model only moved in one direction: towards a mixture of cultures and races, cyclists and vegetarians of the world, which puts only on renewable energy sources and combating all forms of religion. It has nothing in common with traditional Polish values.
>Next he says that PiS goes against the Marxist world order as they resist what is most in the heart of Poles: tradition, historical consciousness, love of country, faith in God, normal life, a family run by a man and a woman.
>This is a shock for our Polish believers in progress, that their opponents after 25 years of leftist and liberal indoctrination that these traditional values have not been removed and now they have lost power.

>Poles do not want "mixing of cultures, races"
well its pretty interesting that they keep moving to more multicultural countries
Nobody wants mixing of culture and races

American here.
I am perfectly fine with most cultures and races (blacks and muslims excluded).
Mixing has worked out pretty well for us.
Here it is the first televised campaign ad for Trump 2016. I think it's a kind of weak, generic Middle Eastern war ad but anything is good after saying he wouldn't want to do TV ads. Plus, MAKE MEXICO PAY FOR THE WALL!!!

No Girls Allowed
summary :
family owns lands since the 1870s
fed has wanted your land for years to turn into a wildlife reservoir (i.e. make money)
never sell to them regardless of their constant harassment by ATF and BLM (bureau of land management)
2001, routine bush fire on property
tell fire department beforehand, accidentally burn 100 acres of federal land, put it out yourselves
2006, lightning storm starts bush fire on your property
start backfire to push it away from your private property
cops show up next day and press charges , go to court
get tried and convicted, sentenced to a year in jail
go to prison for roughly one year
get let out, government says you've served your time
2011, feds want your land again, still won't sell
feds issue re-sentencing convicting you of domestic terrorism - now wants to enforce a mandatory minimum
minimum of 5 more years in federal prison
now a convicted terrorist - must serve 5 more years in federal prison
focus heavily on deer/elk hunting on your own property while in season - call it poaching - say lack of evidence is no reason not to plaster it in media
150 men and women occupy a completely empty government building that was closed for the winter - nobody hurt
liberals call them terrorists, make them look radical, don't look into what actually happened and compare to a hypothetical if they were muslim or black etc. yet ask why these people havent been droned/murdered by the feds
they appear ready to die

http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/04/middleeast/saudi-arabia-iran-severing-ties-whats-next/
Yesterday a mob stormed and burned Saudi Arabia's embassy in Tehran. Two days ago Saudi Arabia executed a cleric with ties to Iran for terrorism. All day long, today, countries across the Arab Gulf and Africa are cutting off diplomatic and economic relations with Iran for failing to honor their treaty obligation to protect embassies, to not incite mob violence with ideological state rhetoric, and for failing to apologize.
This will have direct negative implications for the Syrian and Yemeni Wars, and for trade in and originating from the Persian Gulf. The possibilities of physical and economic insecurity contagion are troubling.
In the video link a guy explains the treaty violation from a non-Iranian perspective and informally lists conditions of bilateral restitution.
The second link is a decent background by CNN.
Good
Iran is next on the chopping block anyway, this will give people justification for an invasion or bombing campaign.
>>14048
In the immediate range this is more likely to give justification to 2005-7 Iraq-style domestic ethnic cleansing. Then, there are also cyber implications...
