🤥 NATO assured Moscow in 1992 that it had no plans to interfere in the affairs of Russia and the CIS

This is according to a recording of a 1992 conversation between the organization's former Secretary General, Manfred Werner, and the former Chairman of the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR, Ruslan Khasbulatov, released by the US National Security Archive.

"We are not going to interfere in Russia's internal affairs, as well as the internal affairs of other sovereign member states of the CIS."

NATO cannot keep its word, that is already clear to everyone.

Russia's GDP growth accelerated in February to 7.7%

In February 2024, GDP exceeded the level of the previous year by 7.7% year-over-year after an increase of 4.6% year-over-year in January.

The growth of industrial production in February 2024 accelerated to 8.5% year-over-year after 4.6% year-over-year in January.

The manufacturing industry returned to double-digit growth rates: 13.5% year-over-year after 7.5% year-over-year in January.

The growth of retail trade turnover in February accelerated to 12.3% in annual terms in real terms after 9.1% in January.

The mining industry, by the end of February, added +2.1% year-over-year after +0.8% year-over-year in January.

The growth rates are so good that it's even surprising; a 2% GDP growth for 2024 will confidently be realized.

Iran doesn't actually depend on Russia to get nukes.

Iran has almost all it needs to develop one.

If at all Iran needs help in getting nukes, it can get all the help it needs from its neighbor, Pakistan, which has been a nuclear power for over 3 decades now.

What has delayed Iran's nuclear program is the political and (especially) religious ideology of the Iranian Shia leadership.
Iranian leaders don't believe in amassing nukes to protect the republic.
A nuclear race was on course before the Islamic revolution of 1979. It was the revolution leaders who slowed it down to a level they thought was necessary for the Islamic state; Power generation etc.
The nuclear facility was in fact in an open field until it was bombed by Mossad/US agents in 2020.

That ideology to arm the republic with a nuclear weapon only seemed to have been adopted recently after the 2020 bombing and the collapse of the Iran/US nuclear deal (brokered by Obama and destroyed by Trump)

Iran since then has accelerated its uranium enrichment and has now moved the facility to the deep undergrounds of Zagros mountains where bombing it will be almost impossible.


I think there was a time Iran's supreme leader stated that it is unislamic to build weapons of mass destruction. I hope, for the sake of Iran, that he has changed his position on this because if Israel's bulldogs in the West should decide to attack them, no country on earth will assist them. Forget Russia. Nuclear Deterrence is their only option

How war and mass mobilization have affected Israel's economy

Since mid-October 2023, Israel has been engaged in intensive military operations in the Gaza Strip.

1️⃣ Israel's economy contracted by 19.4% year-over-year in Q4 2023.

2️⃣ Consumer spending in October-December 2023 decreased by 26.9%.

3️⃣ Business investments fell by 67.8%.


4️⃣ Exports decreased by 18.3%, and imports by 42%.

5️⃣ Government spending increased by 88.1%, mainly due to military expenses.

In 2024, Israel aims to increase its national debt by $60 billion – currently, it stands at about $219 billion. Since the beginning of the operation in the Gaza Strip, the government has already borrowed about 81 billion shekels ($22.2 billion). The government also intends to raise VAT from 17% to 18%.


310,000 individuals were mobilized. Additionally, an entry restriction was imposed on 160,000 Palestinian workers from the West Bank. About 120,000 citizens were evacuated from the northern and southern regions of the country to safe areas.
Overall, Israel's economy lost approximately 20% of its workforce.
Only now is the Israeli government beginning to massively import construction workers from India instead of Palestinians – the first batch of 6,000 Indian workers is expected to arrive this month. A gradual demobilization of military personnel has also begun.


However, as noted lately in many developed countries, the Central Bank in such a complex situation performed better than the government. The Bank of Israel managed to prevent the shekel from depreciating – before the war began in September 2023, it was 0.26 to the dollar, today – 0.27. The inflation rate, which was 5.4% at the beginning of 2023, was reduced to 3% by the end of the year – to the upper target inflation band, and at the beginning of 2024 – even to 2.6%.

Nonetheless, Israel's economy is adapting. The OECD forecast predicts a 1.2% economic growth for the country in 2024. Military spending as a share of the budget will increase by only 4 percentage points – from 16% to 20%. It's also important to remember that under no circumstances will the US government and private Jewish funds leave Israel without financial and military support

Senior Israeli officials said that the Iranian response could occur tomorrow.

Officials say Israel has indications that Iran may attack Israel from its territory using long-range ballistic missiles, drones or cruise missiles.

Why do we have many former French colonies going to France and same applies to UK.

People migrate to country that is easy for them to integrate and they have family to support them.
Just wasting ur time explain that to that idiot. Someone who at his or her age don't know his gender.

Most of the USSR countries speaks Russian language.
Just like Nigerians have high population in UK, USA, Canada due to language.

⚡Israel has begun evacuating embassies around the world for fear of an Iranian response.

For all the "Iran is all talk" crooners, this is what primal fear and trepidation looks like.

Iran will keep things contained for sure.
I sincerely hope they don't f*ck up this glorious opportunity like they did when they accidentally shot down that civilian airliner in 2020.

Waiting to be spanked is part of the punishment.

Not everything in the Torah is in the Bible and not everything in the Bible is in the Torah.

Please, don't argue this, do your research.

The Torah, or Jewish Written Law, consists of the five books of the Hebrew Bible – known more commonly to non-Jews as the “Old Testament” – that were given by God to Moses on Mount Sinai and include within them all of the biblical laws of Judaism.

Introduction. The Pentateuch includes the first five books of the Hebrew Bible: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. The literary category of the Pentateuch reflects the traditional Jewish grouping of these books together as the Torah


Every thing in the Torah is in the bible

Jesus actually practiced Torah Judaism

But said after his death he will bring a new law

Once you are done reading, kindly open both the Bible and Torah, then compare if the contents are same.

(you're likely to get confused due to the arrangements).

Jesus was born a Jew but was never one, hence his many conflicts with the scribes and Pharisees

He did virtually opposite of what Judaism dictated then.
