Russian gas was a cheap way for Germany to produce. The short term economic effects were more important to Merkels electability than any long term plans.

When it comes to gas, Russia never shut off the tap. Instead it was America who blew up the Nordstream energy supply to garner support for a wider war. But now China is producing on cheap Russian gas

At least Germany appears to heavily invest in green energy since Norstream blew up. Bless the sun for shining everywhere.

Germany is upset about this because they sell cars to China. This will probable create Chinese counter tariffs on European cars.

Isn’t Alpine hype now?

Western “society” and Muslim “barbarians” which need to taught how to be “civilized”. Where have we heard this rhetoric before

“The American citizens should feel safe enough to ignore the issue because they are not impacted by it”.

Rumors are that a Gaza ceasefire was included in the deal. Nasrallah was always unwilling to decouple Gaza from the equation.

To claim they will terrorize Europe is a stretch. Their group was created as a bulwark against European and American terrorism.

They strapped an m4 on some servos on a robot dog with a rangefinder camera on top.

I would have expectedly a gun designed for the dog like some tank turret. This is less impressive than expected.

Confirmation by Aljazeera

"Israeli media are now reporting two Israeli soldiers have been killed and 18 others wounded in clashes with Hezbollah fighters this morning on the border with Lebanon near the town of Odaisseh.

These were really the first face-to-face clashes since Israel announced its ground offensive on Tuesday."

President Donald Trump and the republican party who are currently running the government are going to learn that their poor foreign policy has electoral consequences.

Everyone should vote for his opponent, Kamala Harris, who is in no shape or form part of the current government. This will show current President Donald Trump and his republican party that they have crossed a red line which nobody will vote for.

it’s Lebanese but Israel occupies it and claims it’s Syrian. But Syria claims it’s Lebanese. Don’t ask me why Israel is occupying land which they claim belongs to Syria.

The Shebaa Farms, also spelled Sheba’a Farms (Arabic: مزارع شبعا, Mazāri’ Šib‘ā; Hebrew: חוות שבעא Havot Sheba‘a), also known as Mount Dov (Hebrew: הר דב, romanized: Har Dov), is a strip of land on the Lebanese–Syrian border and currently occupied by Israel. Lebanon claims the Shebaa farms as its own territory, and Syria agrees with this position. However, Israel claims the territory belongs to Syria. This dispute plays a significant role in contemporary Israel–Lebanon relations.

Great question. I am mostly to blame because they are mentioned in the original article somewhere in the middle. I just didn’t paste in the entire article. It’s very long so I had to do some cutting after pasting 6 lines.

It comes after an umbrella group of major Muslim groups in the US released a similar call urging members to vote third-party, whether it be for Stein, Dr Cornel West, the Party for Socialism and Liberation’s Claudia De la Cruz, or the Libertarian Party’s Chase Oliver.

Jill Stein has made the genocide her main campaign point. Her platform also is not very "radical’. She mostly offers everything Democrats are asking for. Universal healthcare, ranked choice voting etc. For implementing rcv to escape the duopoly she is imo the best ‘compromise candidate’.

It also helps that realistically only the Greens have the ballot access and infrastructure to make winning possible. A bit difficult to advocate for a candidate who literally cannot win.

Fun fact Saudi Arabia used the Israeli Pegasus spy software to target Jamal Khasoggi.

The full video has existed for a long time. It was filmed by western journalists.

You are free to check out Hakims video on it. The comments you are making are addressed in it.

I watched it. Was well sourced. Never knew there was a full video of the tank man moment and the person blocking the tank was blocking it from driving away from the square. And climbed into the tank.

You can buy a lot of Twitters for that money

Unions rise up

Israel has occupied Lebanese Golan Heights.

Bots are answering them wrong. Google takes the most submitted answer as truth.

I am trying to grasp why minors having sex with other minors is deemed okay. They both cannot consent. Would this not be equal to two drunk people having sex?
