These people are stupid.
I have those too.
Second-rate would be a major improvement over these demoncrat fucktards.
Comey would need an upgrade to be second rate.
I think Trump is trolling to make the demonicrats support Sessions for bringing actions "anytime justice must be served, without regard to election timing. "
If the Vatican ended up with books from old Egypt, and it likely did, they must have come by bits and pieces through monasteries and trade over the centuries. The library was burned 48 A.D.
In the 2nd century, the Roman historian Aulus Gellius wrote in his book Attic Nights that the Library was burned by mistake after the siege when some of Caesar’s auxiliary soldiers started a fire. Aulus's translator similarly notes that, although auxiliary forces accidentally burned many books while stationed in Alexandria: "By no means all of the Alexandrian Library was destroyed [in 48 BC] and the losses were made good, at least in part, by Antony in 41 BC. A part of the library was burned under Aurelian, in 272, and the destruction seems to have been completed in 391."[8]
William Cherf argued that this scenario had all the ingredients of a firestorm which set fire to the docks and then the library, destroying it.[citation needed] This would have occurred in 48 BC, during the fighting between Caesar and Ptolemy XIII. Furthermore, in the 4th century, both the pagan historian Ammianus[9] and the Christian historian Orosius wrote that the Bibliotheca Alexandrina had been destroyed by Caesar's fire. The anonymous author of the Alexandrian Wars wrote that the fires set by Caesar's soldiers to burn the Egyptian navy in the port also burned a store full of papyri located near the port.[10] However, a geographical study of the location of the historical Bibliotheca Alexandrina in the neighborhood of Bruchion suggests that this store cannot have been the Great Library.[11]
Whether the burned books were only some stored books or books found inside the library itself, the Roman stoic philosopher Seneca (c. 4 BC – 65 AD) refers to 40,000 books having been burnt at Alexandria.[12] During his reign of the eastern part of the Empire (40–30 BC), Mark Antony plundered the second largest library in the world (at Pergamon) and presented the collection as a gift to Cleopatra as a replacement for the books lost to Caesar's fire.
I agree that there will be an appearance of "forced to act." Trump has been saying all along, "People are very angry, they want me to do something, I just dont want to get involved at this point, I'm working on a trade deal etc."
