Bro Russia has last more than 1.2m men in this war....Putin made a mistake from the beginning,he was so lenient with Ukrainians 😃
Putin has captured 20% of Ukraine and will not give it back. In those territories he has rebuilt the Infrastructure damaged, reopened schools and life is going on normally. In a war there is always damage. Putin hasn't gone on to damage critical infrastructure in Ukraine. For instance ( Macron was snorting cocaine in a train trip to Kiev? ) that railway is still intact . Airports in Kiev are still intact.

Conservative candidate in Poland beats EU globalist liberal in elections. This one must have been too big to rig.
More countries embracing nationalist parties despite the EU and globalist meddling in elections .
The serfs of EU must listen to the masters in Brussels .
The EU should be reduced to an economic zone , not a political one.
EU has threatened Ireland to enforce laws on hate crimes, telling them there are not enough prosecutions so far and will be refered to the EU Superior Court' of Justice + that s above every EU national laws.

I lost my respect for Prussia. Putin military is rag rag no match for western armies. He is trying to win hearts and minds of Ukrainians.
He would have ended this war with Oreshniks. Give a 24 hour notice of intention to strike Kiev, then take out the airport and Zelensky official home. Repeat ttacks after one day.
Start warning everyone to leave Kiev to create panic.

All MAGAts should be tested for mental illness from their leader down

"Illustrating absurdity by being absurd" refers to a technique where someone deliberately uses exaggerated, nonsensical, or absurd behavior, actions, or arguments to highlight the ridiculousness or irrationality of a situation, idea, or belief. It’s a form of satire or critique that mirrors absurdity to expose its flaws or make a point.



Trump is forcing media to focus on Joe Biden mental decline by the outlandish post. It's all over the news now and instead of being horrified by his re-truth ,you should be appalled at the elder abuse of one Joe Biden.

CNN reports that judicial activists in black robes have scuttled Trump's agenda a whooping 181 times.

CNN doesn't mention that lawfare expert Norm Eisen has his fingers by his words in at least 152 of these lawsuits.

Someone tell me that's not a choreographed judicial coup which Supreme Court CJ John Roberts is reluctant to stop. Or by extension. it's no longer possible for Republicans to get justice in the courts.

⚡IAEA reports that Iran's stockpile of 60% enriched uranium has reached 408 kilograms, which is enough for 24 small-yield nuclear bombs.
Amid the ongoing controversy about Iran’s nuclear program and what to do about it, the Islamic Republic of Iran’s Foreign Minister and a hardline pro-regime newspaper have recently revived the old claim, much beloved of the Obama administration back in the bad old days, that there is nothing to be concerned about at all. This is because the Ayatollah Khamenei has issued a fatwa saying that nuclear weapons are un-Islamic, and therefore, the Islamic Republic of Iran couldn’t possibly be trying to develop nuclear weapons. [b]There’s just one catch: no such fatwa exists or has ever existed.

No less a luminary than Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi nevertheless recently said: “If America’s aim is for Iran not to advance toward nuclear weapons, this is achievable. We have no desire to build nuclear weapons. The Supreme Leader issued a fatwa, and we do not need nuclear weapons in our defense doctrine. They [the Americans] imposed sanctions on us due to the enrichment. We were under sanctions for years, but we didn’t turn to [nuclear] weapons. Our scientists were assassinated, but we didn’t turn to [nuclear] weapons. We came, we negotiated, and we reached an agreement through negotiations, but they [the U.S.] abandoned [the agreement]. We didn’t use [nuclear] weapons. Our policy is based on principles and foundations, and nuclear weapons have no place in our defense doctrine [/b]

Everything you listed here are his private business. It is nobody's business and shouldn't be an excuse. That the appointment is for 150 days is what you need to prove. I have never seen a political appointment that lasts 150 days, the least is usually 180 days. Even if it is 150 days, Elon is yet to spend 150 days, Trump has just spent 4 months and the 5th month just started, except a month is now 25 days. 🤷🤷
You can always ask chatbots when you need info.

Elon Musk served as a Special Government Employee (SGE) leading the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), a temporary advisory body tasked with reducing U.S. government spending and bureaucracy. His role was subject to federal regulations under Title 18, Section 202 of the U.S. Code, which limits SGEs to 130 days of service within any 365-day period. Musk’s appointment began on January 20, 2025, coinciding with President Donald Trump’s inauguration, meaning his SGE term was set to expire by approximately May 30, 2025.

John Chow an American Christian was killed trying to convert an uncontacted, uncolonized tribe. These people are not building roads, education, or developing. They are stagnant.

When I said that colonialism moves us forward by decades, even if it comes at the cost of exploiting our resources, some people who constantly #ate will act as if my statement isn't true. But in reality, it's a reflection of their hatred for the life style and things they enjoy yet #ate.

IjeBos could not mention a single thing his tribe or any other tribe for that matter was building pre-colonialism. What natural resources we wear mining and utilizing.
There are different ways to look at things. The Good perspective of the actions of the colonizers, the bad perspective of the colonizers. Exploitation and all.

Budaatum, watch this video and tell me if colonization was all bad and no good. And if you would prefer to live like these people who does not know till this day there are things like radio frequency, and things like energy. They discovered fire, yeah but that is it.

Africans were complacent. Had a whole forest for toilets and whole rivers for water and a whole sky for the rain. Good annual average weather .
Colonialists need to keep cool in summer. They invented air-conditioning.
They needed to keep warm in winters They invented home heaters and everything heat related. They discovered oil and electric generation.
They needed to preserve food during their harsh weather.
Africans could eat berries,wild roots ,fruits ,animal food all year round as needed.
Colonialists modernized Africa in so many ways. That is a fact that will not be denied.

In bold. Please note.

The best month of May for the S&P 500 index was in 2025, with a gain of 6.3%. This marked the strongest May performance since 1990, driven by easing trade tensions, solid corporate earnings, and a resilient U.S. economy despite tariff uncertainties. Posts on X and web sources confirm this was the S&P 500’s most significant monthly gain since November 2023.

Verse 5, along with the others bolded, explicitly imply the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul" on the eight day after he had rested.

After the Lord had then formed the man from dust did he "planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed".

But that's not even the conclusive evidence. The fact Adam was not given the same duties and pay as the Image shows they couldn't possible be the same creation unless you want to argue God decided to demote the Image to a naked ignorant slave, which he's unlikely to be able to do since they are themselves in God's image with the same powers and abilities and might resist being enslaved by their peer. Hence, slave Adam.
You never answered me why people who worship a deity called Satan aka Lucifer aka Shaytan don't believe there is a God.

No it is not talking about Adam and Eve when God created humans in his image in chapter 2. And if you had been paying attention you would have raised this point so we thrashed it at the start of my stretching where I said the following, which at the time I knew hadn't been understood by you.



Genesis Chapter states clearly that Adam and Eve were created on the eighth day, after the God had rested on the seventh day, and after "creating the humans in his image both male and female created he them" on the sixth day.

Their job descriptions are different, the image being told to rule the earth and multiply and subdue, while Adam was told to tend a tiny poxy garden.

And their pay/reward is different, with the image being told to eat every fruit from every seed bearing tree while Adam had a pay cut of the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil.

Besides, God can not possibly have created humans in his image from mud because that would be a hypocrisy that contravenes the second law as given in Exodus which states, "You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below", and unlike magas forgiving grab them by the pussy, billions in the world would not have forgiven that God (though I'm sure they would, considering the wuruwuru most do to justify the ungodly).

Saying Adam and Eve is the Image of God is step one in your enslavement by those who brought you the book. They themselves were not working in any tiny garden and not eating fruits of trees of knowledge. They were using the knowledge they nourished themselves with to get on ships to go dominate the entire earth to subdue the people they found where they got to so they themselves can plunder your wealth and multiply while you eat there fearing fruits of knowledge is deadly poison.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlYE6vgGeSQ?si=MeoqJbprQQBUwTBq

The above is a song the Brits sang on their way to enslave you. Note how its full of rule and subdue and multiply, and tell me if it does have similar sentiment to "free Palestine from the river to the sea". We might have resisted them more, I'd think, if we had heard them singing it when they first arrived on our shores, because it clearly hints at their intent.
TLDR. That's Jehovah Witness type of interprets.
My point is that one should not care about those things, xtianity dies not rely on the misspellings, placement and sequence of bible verses.
If Jesus didn't resurrect then xtianity falls flat in it's face. Fullstop. Period.
