But it's just that, a theory nothing more.

Yes, but I would have thought that self-evident.

Until Trump clarifies matters then we are either left with:
1) Theories like those that Damien and I have referenced, or
2) People feel it's Trump up to his old alt facts again.

Trump has just Tweeted that he was referencing the Fox News report.

Entertaining short video on how Kellyanne Conway, Trump's press secretary, handles TV interviews and avoids difficult questions.

So there wasn't a grenade attack by Somalis, killing an 8 year old boy in Sweden? Or maybe there was........

The chief suspect in the murder of a British boy who was killed by a hand grenade in Sweden has died before he could be arrested.
Yuusuf Warsame, from Birmingham, was sleeping in an apartment in a working class area of Gothenburg, Sweden when the explosive was tossed through the window on August 22 last year.
Police believed the murder was part of an ongoing feud between members of the Somali underworld and had identified a main suspect.

"English" I think they can cope with. It's the letter "U" they seem to dislike, or "GHT" or some "S"s. They also verbalise nouns hence a burglar "burglarizes" rather using the word burgle. Wonder they don't continue so you get "burglarized" by a "burglarizer"...

Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
 
There seem to be two foreign policies developing on key issues. Here's another example which comes shortly after Trump said that the US was not committed to a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine whilst Pence added that it was. I'm genuinely confused. Is there a split between Trump and Pence or is Trump changing/evolving his position on quite a few key issues like Israel, Nato and the EU?

Donald Trump u-turn as Mike Pence tells EU leaders America is "strongly committed to partnership"

I would be interested in a link to an article after the Trump/Netanyahu press conference where Pence has stated a different policy. I'm not saying that isn't the case, I would just like to see it. A Google search on Pence and Israel just showed 2016 results.

Speaking of 'fake news*'...

Quote:

Two Swedish police officers were interviewed in the film. Anders Göranzon and Jacob Ekström answered questions about how weapons are becoming more accessible. Horowitz also asked the officers about how crime has spread through cities. But the police officers now say that their answers were taken out of context, and are very critical of how their comments were portrayed on Fox News ”Tucker Carlson Tonight”. ”I don’t understand why we are a part of the segment. The interview was about something completely different to what Fox News and Horowitz were talking about”, says Anders Goranzon.

It was supposed to be about crime in high risk areas. Areas with high crime rates. There wasn’t any focus on migration or immigration”.

”We don’t stand behind it. It shocked us. He has edited the answers. We were answering completely different questions in the interview. This is bad journalism.”

Anders Göranzon continues: ”It feels like hell. The real questions should be shown along with our answers. We don’t own the rights to the film, but the end result is that we don’t want to talk to journalists after this. We can’t trust each other.”

”We just saw it. What can we do? One thing is talking to you. The excerpt they showed doesn’t say anything, we answered a different question. We don’t stand behind what he says. He is a madman.”
*the Fox News story that Trump based his comment about 'last night in Sweden' on...

I can only find the US ambassador to the UN (just appointed by Trump) comments.

But Nikki Haley, Mr Trump's appointment for ambassador to the UN, said the US remained committed to a two-state solution.

She said anyone who believed the US was abandoning the policy did so in “error”.

The UN envoy said: "We are thinking out of the box as well, which is: What does it take to bring these two sides to the table? What do we need to have them agree on?

"We absolutely support a two-state solution."
