Yes, we do have a lot to be thankful for.
And, if THEY get their way, less to look forward to.
The Butcher of New York.
That's the original soup Nazi.
Turkey's gonna get it (with the double edged sword). I see the ever so lighter wedge shaded area at the neck. A true O-bam-a-nation, that bird. A real hatch-it job.
Happy T-day, one and all (even you trolls).
WB7,
You must, really must, make your own ISIS propaganda video. Show us how it's done.

pardon (v.) Look up pardon at Dictionary.com
mid-15c., "to forgive for offense or sin," from Old French pardoner (see pardon (n.)).
'I grant you pardon,' said Louis XV to Charolais, who, to divert himself, had just killed a man; 'but I also pardon whoever will kill you.' [Marquis de Sade, "Philosophy in the Bedroom"]
Related: Pardoned; pardoning. Pardon my French as exclamation of apology for obscene language is from 1895.
pardon (n.) Look up pardon at Dictionary.com
late 13c., "papal indulgence," from Old French pardon, from pardoner "to grant; forgive" (11c., Modern French pardonner), "to grant, forgive," from Vulgar Latin *perdonare "to give wholeheartedly, to remit," from Latin per- "through, thoroughly" (see per) + donare "give, present" (see donation).
Meaning "passing over an offense without punishment" is from c. 1300, also in the strictly ecclesiastical sense; sense of "pardon for a civil or criminal offense; release from penalty or obligation" is from late 14c. earlier in Anglo-French. Weaker sense of "excuse for a minor fault" is attested from 1540s.

No pardon for that turkey!
Happy Thanksgiving WB7 and fellow ZH'ers.
Well, Thanks to all of you good ZHr's! I wish you a truly Happy Thanksgiving!
(and to the habitual junker, glory hole, or ass hole, maybe you can find a thimble-full of happiness as well).
Be your BEST William.
You've been predisposed, with family matters.
We, I, need you...
I am thankful that there's only one more Thanksgiving to go before Obama leaves orifice.
From here on in, I will no longer refer to the White House, I will call it the Black Hole.
And the junking moron we will call Glory Hole
Tail feathers have a Nixonesque profile...
By golly, you're right!
he he....
I see what you did there ;-)
anyways happy turkey stuffing day to you and yours.
and here is to many happy returns...
well,maybe.
Saving that one, I'm going to make Thanksgivng place mats with it.
They need to make a postage stamp out of this one. (A forever stamp)
"...A forever stamp..."
The more closely I consider the actions of the West and the Anglo-Zio petro-carpetbaggers, the more I convince myself that Erdogan and his clan are just temps. NATO Article 5 doesn't apply if a member nation is in a state of civil war. NATO will sit back and watch Turkey burn to the ground. NATO isn't looking for WW III if that can be avoided. The collapse of Turkey and ensuing chaos would serve nicely for all the political, military and economic clownfuckery the deep state currently needs.
While Erdogan serves a lot of useful functions to Western intelligence agencies and the deep state right now, they are pretty much letting him run wild and dig his own grave. It's almost like the West WANTS Turkey to hate him enough to overthrow him (and Academy/Xe snipers can always provide the final shove). Which falls nicely in line with ZATO's preferred method of influencing the actions of governments it wants to control: destroy them.
The stamp can't be a forever one. It has to have a qualifier, "Valid while Erdogan exists." Personally, I think they're going to have a very short shelf-life.
I'm thinking that Erdogan just shortened his career arc dramatically by sucker-punching Russia.
Not a wise move...at all.
@PW4... so maybe that "shove" was the ZATO whisper in his ear to take a pot shot at the Russians... "go ahead... it'll be fine... sure we'll back you up"
And now the wheels are in motion for the eventual outcome you suggest: chaos & destabilization of Turkey as well... like a wave rolling through the ME and now into EU
BTW I am thankful for ZH, it has been a place of illumination, especially with posters such as yourself, PW4...
Someday, Lord willing, we will all meet in a pub/saloon/watering hole somewhere (minus the trolls) and regale one another in our stories of truth, freedom & liberty.
"...Someday, Lord willing, we will all meet in a pub/saloon/watering hole somewhere (minus the trolls) and regale one another in our stories of truth, freedom & liberty..."
Look me up. I'll be in FEMA Region IV Re-Internment Camp Freedom with a very low serial number. Not sure if you want to have a drink with me because I'll probably be on the premiere guest rectal feeding/drinking plan during my re-education. Maybe we can go waterboarding together before we're scheduled for high-temperature exit processing.
"How do YOU know what the founding fathers intended, smartass??? GUARD! Give this 'patriot' more Freedom Hummus... a LOT more..."
To all of the Zero Hedgers worth their weight in gold.
May you, friends, family, and people you care about enjoy peace, happiness, good health and prosperity.
And may all the rest get what they deserve, too.
I volunteer to chop the head off of that One..
That bird right there is gonna leave some shitty ass leftovers.
Happy Thanksgiving to the Americans on Z/H, and the Imperialist dogs, and Stooges, that helped to destroy
the Land of the Slave & home of the indentured into servitude. We can only hope it is the last.
bon apitite'
Go Russian Federation!
Go Putin!
Go China!
is this the turkish flag?
Turkey Fag
So the turkey pardoned was named Erdogan.
Thanks for clearing that up! ;-)
Erdogan is an ' manical" supplanted, puppet.
What's the difference between American sheeple and turkeys? Wool over the eyes or feathers as brains.
God Damn B but you're a genius at the right time and place!
To add insult to injury watch today's segement with Larry Johnson ex-CIA and the choice of words he used to describe the "cut out" Zionist whore that comes from the same "joint"!!!
Maybe we'll be truly blessed before the close of this year to discover a "civil war" within the walls of Langley and the Pentagon because the "shits" got nowhere else to go but down since September 11, 2001 and thats alot of bad smell going on 15 years!!! We'll know that is true when the likes of Brennan and Clapper wind up like Bandar "Bush" and fail to show up at their favorite Aspen resort for the holidays...
Lets hope there are a slew of Binney's, Drake's, Tice's and Snowden's to paint there faces blue and lead the charge to do the opposite of everything they've been doing for far too long!...
Happy Turkey Day everyone!!!
Obviously a hen not a Tom #jiveturkeysmatter
`
lol...I missed the turkey' name he pardoned today.
Was it Holder or Corzine? ;-)
Stanks, the Junk Turkey
Amazing what 8 short years can do.
The moral high ground US once occupied after WWII and the Cold War - it´s GONE.
Not that the W was even a marginally good. But this time you have really fucked yourselves and your reputation.
I guess you haven´t even begun to realize the outrigh disdaint for the US of fucking A in Europe. Your current mooslem administration in cahoots with the other crazies with mideastern interest is viewed with copius suspicion.
It´s so sad- the american people are really made of great stuff - open , generous , capable of great acts of generosity and with a big heart and strong arm capable a striking a mighty blow for freedom. Now totally usurped by this perfidious administration.
It´s a thin tread now hanging in the balance supported by our own European political crust with their own vested interests. But things are not looking so bright for the Hollandes and Merkels of this world.
I deal with Europeans and other non-Americans every day. Trust me, I know exactly what they think. And if they are not thinking it, I set them straight ASAP.
I know you do.
Myself I am becoming more and more pessimistic. Things are accelerating and potentially not-so pleasant developments are just around the corner.
I guess this is what the people in Weimar felt like.
The problem is that a lot of basically good people - just don´t get it - and won´t get it - until it´s too late.
Yes, like the persistent moron who down voted you for example, although he is not included in a lot of good people.
Sticks and stones will break your bones...
But who gives a fuck about chickenshit down-voters with no ability to make a rational response?
The internet equivalent of anonymous drive-by shooters.
Pfftt.
Probably one of the employees of the alphabet soup. I suspect several different agencies are employing assistants - digital or humanoids because they are more nervous than normal since their bluff has ben called. Or just an ordinary idiot.
As for the good people stuff...when beating up on the US I alway try to make the distinction between that Federal behemoth and my own experiences with ordinary people over there. I will always maintain that there is an abundance of good and decent Americans that stand for some very important core values.
As for the current administration however...it´s pure Evil. A President known under three different names, with every record sealed, whom no one can remember from the prestige schools he allegedly attended and a clear pattern of a family with deep CIA ties...and so on. You just can´t make this shit up.
If I would have gone to Hollywood with a film script for a cutout Prez , a clandestine mooslem bought and paid for by Al-Saud and CIA...I would have been booted out of every producers office. Why americans are taking this lying down is beyond me.d
What I am trying to impress is that the general mood in continental Europe is not very positive re. current developments especially situation in the middle east and all the religious fanatics that we are (by purpose probably) being swamped with. Americans with a poor grasp on history and no personal experience from this place generally seem to think that we are pushovers an believe that the US won the war...(?). They have no inkling on the potential problems brewing in this situation.
One idiot told me that we should blame ourselves for buying all that oil from middle east. We don´t have to. We can buy all the gas and oil we need in abundance from Russia. The fact of the matter is that we don´t need an inch of the middle east and don´t want have to have anything to do with them.
(And I am in no way a fan of Putin nor acting as some kind of propaganda agent for that region of the world)
Thanks, sir, for your comments about Americans -- both good and bad. It's important to spell out the truth.
We're due for another really big war, not that any of us will be better for it. Hope you make it to the other side and do your part to rebuild what's left for the survivors.
