Andrei Posted October 14, 2014 If it is this kind of "shirt front" I bet on judo. This is what happens when a judoka takes his shirt off: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0kvb5AwMsU 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted October 15, 2014 I'd bet the 'shirt fronting' is metaphor for accusations and tough questions. Thus no bet, but I'd hope to see Abot win the day. on the third hand in most mixed martial art contests unless a stand up fighter (boxer) has specific training to avoid take down and trains in certain defenses, the wrestler (judoka) tends to close the distance and win.

Nungali Posted October 15, 2014 Thing is ... Abbott will have to wait for an opportunity when Putin actually has a shirt on. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joeblast Posted October 16, 2014 *hand* puhleez....if Mr Abbot had any balls whatsoever, he'd ask for the tapes from the Ukranian air traffic control tower, and then apoligize to Mr Putin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nungali Posted October 16, 2014 No point trying to make sense of it. Its a stunt ... now Abbott's lackeys will start making a noise about how Putin wont be welcome here ... then they can say he was too scared to show up. (Actually, this started after the Russians said they weren't coming ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joeblast Posted October 16, 2014 The shootdown of MH-17 was a stunt also. The world's most prominent Ebola researcher along with some top aids researchers were on that plane. http://dublinsmickdotcom.wordpress.com/2014/09/07/was-glenn-thomas-aware-of-hard-evidence-showing-that-the-lab-was-faking-positive-diagnoses-for-ebola-tulane-university-in-order-to-justify-forcing-people-to-undergo-treatment-whic/ " Was Glenn Thomas aware of hard evidence showing that the lab was faking positive diagnoses for Ebola — Tulane University?" Also very little mention that the government there made them close down and stop doing ebola testing 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
