FoolishBoy419:Hamas still stands? Yeah right. How frequent are the rocket launch you say it as if it's daily or even weekly compare that to when the war first started. So now you're saying because rockets are launch means Israel doesn't control that area? Soldiers die in war it's not new. The fact on ground is that Israel is decimating hamas pushed them into Gaza City their last foothold. In other places they are just few insurgents that can't coordinate themselves. All that's left is the periodic and scarce rocket launch rockets that won't even hit anything. You can jerk off to that. |

WriterrNg:See finishing ![]() The Battle of Poltava was fought in 1709, 316 years ago. Sweden was fighting against Denmark-Norway, Poland-Lithuania, and Russia. Sweden had defeated the first two and marched toward Moscow to defeat Russia. But the battle ended in a severe defeat for Sweden. It marked the end of Sweden's attempt to become a great European power and also, marked the rise of Russia as a great European power |

⚡Putin: BRICS does not attack the dollar but defends itself from it. Accusations from the West about the threat of BRICS are a reaction to the successes of this organization, Putin responded to a question about dedollarization. "BRICS makes up 40 percent of the world economy and is growing. Russia wants to continue working within this system. Part of BRICS's actions is establishing new investment platforms and modern payment systems," explained the Russian president. It is possible to create a system that operates with minimal risk and, essentially, without inflation, Putin added. This is not an attack on the dollar, because BRICS's policy is directed at its members, not against anyone.

⚡🇷🇺 VLADIMIR PUTIN: "The power of the United States and its allies reached its peak at the end of the 20th century. But there has never been, nor will there ever be, a force capable of ruling the world, dictating everyone how to act, how to live, even how to breathe. Such attempts have been made, but every one of them has failed. However, we must recognise that many found that so-called liberal world order acceptable and even convenient. True, a hierarchy severely limits opportunities for those not perched at the top of the pyramid, or, if you prefer, the top of the food chain. But those at the bottom were relieved of responsibility. The rules were simple: accept the terms, fit into the system, receive your share, however modest, and be content. Others would think and decide for you. And no matter what anyone says now, no matter how some try to disguise the reality – that is how it was. The experts gathered here remember and understand this perfectly well. Some, in their arrogance, saw themselves entitled to lecture the rest of the world. Others were content to play along with the powerful as obedient bargaining chips, eager to avoid unnecessary trouble in exchange for a modest but guaranteed bonus. There are still many such politicians in the old part of the world, in Europe. Those who dared object and tried to defend their own interests, rights, and views, were at best dismissed as eccentrics. They were told, in effect: "You will not succeed, so give up and accept that compared to our power, you are a nonentity." As for the truly stubborn, they were "educated" by the self-proclaimed global leaders, who no longer even bothered to hide their intent. The message was clear: resistance was pointless. But this did not bring anything good. Not a single global problem was resolved. On the contrary, new ones are constantly multiplying. Institutions of global governance created in an earlier era either ceased to function or lost much of their effectiveness. And no matter how much strength or resources one state, or even a group of states, may accumulate, power always has its limits. As the Russian audience knows, there is a saying in Russia: "There’s no counter to a crowbar, except another crowbar," meaning you don’t bring a knife to a gunfight, but another gun. And indeed, that "other gun" can always be found. This is the very essence of world affairs: a counterforce always emerges. And attempts to control everything inevitably generate tension, undermining stability at home and prompting ordinary people to ask a very fair question of their governments: "Why do we need all this?" I once heard something similar from our American colleagues, who said: "We gained the whole world, but lost America." I can only ask: Was it worth it? And did you truly gain anything at all?"

LordAdam16:That right there is their future. I have read through American history and negotiating in bad faith has always been their hallmark. A few centuries ago, they would reach peace agreements with Native American tribes and even neighboring countries like Mexico, only to throw that treaty away and start a war again. It is really odd. |

The Secretary General of the Gulf Cooperation Council today announced that the Gulf are not on the side of US action against Iran. Talk is cheap. We shall see if their actions match the rhetoric when the shooting starts. Regardless, any base in a Gulf country that supports American attacks on Iranian soil will be abruptly decommissioned. -Lord |

obedience4:@bolded I have my reservations about the figures you mentioned, but let's work with it. Does that ratio look nearly comparable with what we have in Ukraine? This is why I told you that it's ultra-humane. As for the Vietcong, a great portion of them wore distinct black pajamas and fought in jungles but you have a point here. How about Serbia? How do you think Russia should fight Ukraine? This is what Urban warfare is. You can't expect Russia to fire missiles at empty forests and lakes bro. Russia avoids civilians and the figures prove it. Civilians unfortunately get caught at times sometimes by Russian missiles and sometimes by Ukrainian air defense |

LordAdam16:Well said, especially concerning Xi although I do not blame him. He too had followed the inital path Russia and Iran had taken in trusting and trying to establish friendly relations with the West. He must have thought their antagonism would be limited to media slander and subtle economic attacks. It's better late than never sha.

INTRESTING FACTS How many Arabs lived in “Palestine” before the establishment of the State of Israel 🇮🇱? A timeline with historical sources: 🔸In 1785, Constantine Francois Volney describes the "ruined" and "desolate" state of the country: "We with difficulty recognized Jerusalem... The population is supposed to amount to twelve to fourteen thousands..." 🔸In 1843, Alexander Keith wrote that "in this [Volney's] day the land had not fully reached its last prophetic degree of desolation and depopulation." 🔸In 1816, J.S. Buckingham had described Jaffa as "a poor village", and Ramleh as a place "where, as throughout the greater portion of Palestine, the ruined portion seemed more extensive than that which was inhabited." 🔸In 1835, Alphonse de Lamartine gave this description: "Outside gates of Jerusalem, we saw indeed no living object, heard no living sound. We found the same void, the same silence as we should have found in the enrombed gates of Pompeii and Herculaneum... a complete, eternal silence resigns in the town, in the highways, in the country... The tomb of a whole people." 🔸In 1857, the British consul in Palestine, James Finn, reported back to England: "The country is in a considerable degree empty of inhabitants and therefore its greatest need is that of a body of population." 🔸In 1867, Mark Twain wrote in The Innocents Abroad: "Stirring senses... occur in this valley no more. There is not a solitary village throughout its whole extent – not for thirty miles in either direction." He goes on to describe Galilee, Judea, and around Jerusalem as deserts devoid of population. And for the country as a whole: "Palestine sits in sackcloth and ashes. Over it broods the spell of a curse that has withered its fields and fettered its energies... Palestine is desolate and unlovely... It is hopeless, dreary, heartbroken land." 🔸In 1881 (the year designated by Arafat as the beginning of the Zionist "invasion" and "displacement" of the local population), English cartographer Arthur Penrhyn Stanley wrote: "In Judea it is hardly an exaggeration to say that for miles and miles there was no appearance of life or habitation." 🔸By the third quarter of the 19th century, the total population of the entire country, Arabs and Jews, was only 400,000. Less than 3% of today's figure. So where were all those "Palestinians" before the Israeli "occupation"? When they scream Palestine, know it’s all a lie. (Shiri Sabra on X)

⚡Munich International Airport in Germany was closed earlier tonight, with dozens of flights being grounded and canceled while at least 15 incoming flights were diverted to airports in the German cities of Stuttgart, Nuremberg and Frankfurt, as well as Vienna, Austria, following the sighting of unidentified drones in the airspace around Munich. The sighting, which was originally made by air traffic control and later confirmed by police helicopters, appears to be similar to drone sightings throughout the last few weeks over airports and other critical sites in Denmark and Northern Europe.
