The U.S. Senate will vote today, sometime after 12pm EST, on a bill containing $14.6 Billion usd in weapons for Israel, $60.1 Billion usd in weapons and macro financial aid for Ukraine and $2 Billion usd in weapons for Taiwan.
As it relates to Israel specifically, I've read the bill...
Because it hasn't been. Happy to keep you up to date, however, because I know you're not from this hemisphere.
There are two bills in the U.S. Senate right now and both have the same $60.1 Billion usd for Ukraine, $14.6 Billion usd for Israel and $2.1 Billion usd for Taiwan. However, the bill...
Vancouver has far more Asians (mostly Chinese) and Indians than it does Muslims. Ottawa, a city I've lived in, has about 40,000 Muslims, a lot of whom are fantastic, non-radical people, among a populous in the greater area that is about 1.2 million people.
The Muslim population is Canada is...
Ecuador 🇪🇨 will transfer 6 Osa-AKM SAM air defense systems to the United States 🇺🇸 for transfer to Ukraine 🇺🇦. This deal was previously reported, but the details had not yet been released.
The OSA-AKMs are part of $200 million usd exchange, in which Ecuador will send Ukraine a variety of Soviet...
I don't think you'll give up. I've always respected the patience that the Muslim tradition has built into it. We could learn from that. Impatience is among the West's biggest flaws. I would expect nothing other than numerous generations of waiting and planning for your chance to take out Israel...
Damn shame that the once great Ottoman Empire was vanquished in its ear against the West and as has been the case throughout history, when you lose a war, the way you save the lives of your populous is to trade something that your conqueror will accept as payment for sparing you and your way of...
I don't see anything unreasonable about that take from the Saudis. A two state solution, with the 1967 borders and the removal of the Israeli settlements, especially from area C where they've proliferated, should be part of any peace deal. Israel will hate that deal, but it's the right move to...
Nothing I wrote in that entire "history lesson" was anything but factual. After the 1956 War that Eqypt lost, Israel gave them clear conditions for future war. One of those key conditions was hurting Israel's economy via closing the Straits of Tiran to Israeli shipping. Nasser bowed up and...
Wait, so your argument is that Muslims and Arabs in the region need to accept Israel's existence as a state and stop warring with them because Israel's existence was created by the West smashing the Ottomans in a war, gaining control of territory, giving it to Israel and recognizing them as a...
Nasser closed the Straits of Tiran and put his army on the border in a defensive posture, knowing that it would wind up in war. After the 1956 situation, Israel told Egypt, publically, that if they closed the Straits again, it would be an act of war. Israel saw that as a direct attack on their...
I seem to remember an armored vehicle convoy, dozens of miles in length, made up of Russians looking to take over....
Oh wait, that was Kyiv... And thankfully, most of them are dead now, or have returned home to further abuse their farm animals and find out that their Tic Toc dreams are over.
Whether the published video is accurate or not, the fact still stands that Ukraine was easily able to get Stormshadow cruise missiles through Russian air defense air Belbek, destroying the command center at the airfield and killing base commander, Lieutenant General Alexander Tatarenko and his...
Netanyahu is psychopath. He shouldn't be trusted. It doesn't mean the West should stop supporting Israel's cause, but the Israelis absolutely need to get that guy out of office and put somebody into power that in no way, shape, or form, supports Israeli expansion in the West Bank. There is...
USA 🇺🇸 Senate will likely vote in favour of $60.1 Billion usd in additional military aid for Ukraine 🇺🇦 this afternoon. We don't yet know at this time how the bill will do in the House of Representatives, but it has a much better chance of passing because it's tied directly to $14.6 Billion usd...
During the 6 Day War in 1967 Israel beat the piss out of a much larger Arab / Muslim coalition that attacked them. As a result of the war, Israel took control of the Golan Heights, Sinai Peninsula, West Bank and the Gaza Strip, as the Arab / Muslim army retreated in shame, with their respective...
The "better man" in a war (unlike a street fight) is the one who winds up victorious. Often that's because of some of the following.
1. The superior industrial base to support the war.
2. The collective burning desire of the populous to win the conflict at any costs.
3. The technological...
Make no mistake about it, my position is sound, regardless of whether or not you agree with it.
It is my belief that Ukrainian values are better aligned with Western values and superior to Russian values, therefore, I'm supporting Ukraine. Furthermore, I detest Putin's strong man grip over his...
