Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way
Rules For the rest of the Site also accessible on the sidebar.

Was talking with someone from work today and I mentioned UAE cutting off Iran banking and KSA offering US troops access to all their MIL bases if either of them were attacked again.... does anyone have the sources that may have led me to believe this?

As for the KSA offer, cant find it. Best I can find (via grok): https://www.whitehouse.gov/fact-sheets/2025/11/fact-sheet-president-donald-j-trump-solidifies-economic-and-defense-partnership-with-the-kingdom-of-saudi-arabia/
Mr. Bursts - Thank you for taking the time/effort to look at this. This type of engagement is what makes me pump my fist about this crew!
You are welcome fren.
My goto is to all grok or one of the other LLMs and to search yandex with site:greatawakening.win added to the keywords
Its harder to not be a "anti-semite" in 2026 than it was to be an "anti-semite" before 2020.

A quote growing especially pertinent as we transition back into realpolitik in international relations.

Bibi has dismissed reports of his death as being "greatly exaggerated" by posting this video of him accosting random people trying to enjoy the view of a mildly interesting hill, looking awkward to meet him.
There are folks on the internet claiming this is AI generated. There are yet more folks claiming this video is real but not current. A third school of thought says that the video is real and current and Bibi is absolutely alive, but the rest of the world has been replaced by a Matrix.
Unconfirmed reports have indicated that Biden chimed in on the issue mumbling something that sounded like "If you have a good mask you can make your own reality"
This news report has been brought to you by the Matrix News.
Sorry, couldn;t resist putting that video. Here is the real one
creative, your thoughts cover humor and the mask intrigue of the movie
With everything going on these days, i hafta say i am in total awe of this board, all the variety and depth of knowledge for the whole range of topics that affect our lives daily! And kudos to the big brains in here that can explain everything so us simple folk can understand too! Heartfelt thanks to all,with prayers for our safety and survival in these trying times!
The university of GAW, no degrees awarded, no entrance fee and the lecturers are brilliant.
great idea, would there be certificates of mastery of subjects, or proficiency? would like to know that a surgeon meets some qualifications, for example
Well said TT! 👏

Spot silver 81.24
Edit 82.47 at midnight.
for the Fourth of July 250th celebration I would like 2 cars painted silver as part of or leading a parade. One of my friends suggested a 1948 Tucker but then I like the maroon color on it.
If so, maybe president of a Learing Center. Since he needs to lear how to read and all.
You spelled leering wrong.
That commie POS has been leering as long as he's been selected...
