My friend who lived in Ukrainian Crimea time and now lives in Russian Crimea says how much different it is to live under Russian government, the peninsula was revitalized and brought back to life, the financial situation is so much better, pensioners get their pension on time, the communal concerns are addressed immediately , gas, electricity is a constant supply. Overall Crimean are satisfied to be Russians.
It is for sure, but as always it means that other russian regions have gotten the pass. This is not to say that some smaller villages around Russia aren't getting a touch of love, especially now when the Russian economy has gone up, but regions like Arkhangelsk literally look like they did under the Zar. And it just so happens that most pro-Navalny libtards came from those regions, so it can be a double edged sword to focus too much on single regions like Crimea, and now Mariupol. Imagine if Russia had to support all of Ukraine exactly like they did during the Soviet times? Hopefully not

What’s becoming so obvious to people now is that colonialism has never ended just rebranded with different terms. From Natives indigenous people being called “savages” in the old days to now being called “terrorist” by neocolonialists who are neoliberals, neoconservatives, and zionist. 1) Savages is now “terrorist” 2) Civilizing them is now “bringing them democracy” 3) Colonies is now “territories” We can all see Israel is a colonial project being supported by former and current colonials such as U.S, UK, and others who also control territories of indigenous natives in Caribbean Islands, Pacific Islands, Hawaii, and many more. The liberation of Palestine will definitely give RISE to many indigenous natives around the world to free themselves from western domination. This is the underlying ripple effect that the U.S government and its puppet allies don’t want to happen

Hi Nima. Watching from Australia. You would make a great politician. Your a listener and well natured person. All the best mate in this crazy world. Appreciate every broadcast you do. Bless
Another excellent and captivating interview Nima, and your unique and erudite guest Col. Larry Wilkerson was once again in top form: huge appreciation to you both.
Always an enlightening and highly informative interview, when Col. Wilkerson us your guest! It’s amazing the nuances and subtle details he is aware of, that many other analysts overlook. I think his insights about Israel, Hamas, Hezbellah and Iran, were all incredibly relevant and accurate! Col. Wilkerson demonstrates a profound depth of understanding about this region , and the many complexities that motivate the behaviors and policies of all the players in the Middle East. I suspect that Col. Wilkerson’s expectations about how Iran will eventually respond to the killing of the chief Hamas negotiator on Iranian soil, will play out as he has so thoughtfully expounded upon. Israel will not be able to ellicit an excessive knee jerk reaction, to their provocations. Iran has shown restraint and sanity in their responses thus far. Iran understands the negative consequences, if they overreact in their response. Col. Wilkerson’s assessment of the conflict in Ukraine, was equally as insightful and incredibly accurate. The Zelensky regime’s days are clearly coming to an end, and their catastrophic loss in this conflict, is apparent to anyone willing to see the realities unfolding on the ground. Nothing the West does, or that Ukraine does, can possibly alter the outcome of this tragic conflict! It’s unfortunate that no one in the West, in positions of power, has any of the knowledge, skills or experiences, that Col. Wilkerson does. The ignorance, arrogance , hubris, and stupidity of Western leaders and their top government officials, is dumbfounding and extremely unsettling. Their complete incompetence in handling international affairs and foreign relations , could end up slow walking the world into a Third World War,, with unthinkable consequences for us all!!! Thank you Nina for continuing to invite Col. Wilkerson back as a recurring guest , on your wonderful podcast. You and your esteemed guests keep us all better informed about current events. Please keep up the good work!.

These dialogues work regards my attention span and concentration for the 52 minutes. It was an audiological event, yet my eyes were glued to the two faces on the screen, for the facial expressions, the nuances. 'Dialogue Works' you caught me, hook, line and sinker. We live in hope of a better world with dialogue, diplomatic dialogue. Thank you.
Always a pleasure to hear from Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson your brilliant analysis and understanding of this situation and thank you Nima for your great program the shocking part is the United States has allowed Israel and Ukraine to escalate never give peace a chance
I hope that Odessa and Nikolayev do not remain with Ukraine. Ukraine must not have any ports on the Black Sea, or USA/UK will never leave it alone. USA wants Naval bases on the Black Sea.
This has been an absolute tragedy for both Russia and Ukraine.. 100's of thousands of young men died, for what❓❓It is so sad. After this war is over, what did Zelensky and U. S achieve❓broken hearts of the families and loved ones, destruction, long lasting mental health problems etc. 😭😭🙏

Col. (ret.) Lawrence Wilkerson's last positions in government were as Secretary of State Colin Powell's Chief of Staff (2002-05), Associate Director of the State Department's Policy Planning staff under the directorship of Ambassador Richard N. Haass, and member of that staff responsible for East Asia and the Pacific, political-military and legislative affairs (2001-02). -
The pagers involved were 3 months old.. where do Lebanon buy the pagers cuz that had to be an explosive?. A pager battery does not blow up; it may get hot and flare if it’s lithium but that does blow up like videos show. These folks but new pagers laced with explosives
@@raazhard you’ve seen it happen; all video evidence I see indicates a heat to fire. I have alarm and extinguisher in a cabinet with my 3,000 watt lith. The counter measure are for fire, not explosion and that’s verified w/ my local fire dept.
It's highly likely that explosive charges no matter how small were bundled with the tampered equipment. A lithium fire would not blow people's hands clean off
The detonation of a modern nuclear weapon would have catastrophic effects on the population. The immediate impact includes an intense blast wave capable of leveling buildings and infrastructure, resulting in massive casualties and injuries. The intense heat generated would cause severe burns and ignite widespread fires, further increasing the death toll. Additionally, the release of radiation would lead to acute radiation sickness, causing symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and hemorrhaging, and significantly increasing the risk of long-term health issues like cancer. The environmental fallout would contaminate air, water, and soil, making the affected area uninhabitable for years and leading to long-term ecological damage. The psychological trauma inflicted on survivors would be profound, with widespread fear, grief, and mental health issues. The social and economic fabric of the affected region would be devastated, leading to displacement, loss of livelihoods, and a prolonged humanitarian crisis.
The only problem, and it is a major one, is that the Colonels and Nimi's little strategy for peace, is that it will never be allowed. The Neo-N... have already told Zelensky, that if there is any negoitiating it will lead to them marching on Kiev and hanging him from a tree. Since that is the case, this war will be decided on the battlefield, and it is Russia who will determine what is done with Ukraines resources. The funny thing is, is that Russia has more resources than we can imagine. How that will irk all the neo-colonialist and resource rapists that inherit the West. Maybe Putin will hand them all over to China as a thanks for the support and a spit in the eye of the West that can only dream about the wealth they will never get their hands on. Maybe in the end it will cause the vile and demonic leaders of the West to say that they would rather see the world destroyed then let others have a share. Are they that evil, I guess time will tell.
Religious beliefs have historically played a significant role in fomenting wars, often serving as both a catalyst and a justification for conflict. When religious ideologies are intertwined with political ambitions, they can be used to rally support, unify groups, and legitimize acts of violence against perceived enemies. Leaders may exploit religious sentiments to mobilize followers, framing wars as holy missions or divine mandates. This can lead to the dehumanization of opponents, portraying them as heretics or infidels, which further fuels animosity and violence. Additionally, religious differences can exacerbate existing tensions, turning political or territorial disputes into intractable conflicts. While religion can be a source of peace and reconciliation, its misuse in the context of war highlights the complex and often destructive power it holds in human societies.
Its zionism. A nationalist movement. And the rabbis have incorporated it into Judaism. But many jews do not practice, but are still Zionists Israel is built on Zionism. Zionism started in the late 1800s I believe. It's not part of the religion of judaism.
@@janexerikus8021please, we will definitely see about that CRAP statement. ALL people deserve to live in peace and not have to worry about some other people forcing them to have to leave, no people.
kamalcon isn't going to stop this PW she has said it multiple times she will always defend nato and U jargon.. the same talking pts.... ugh i never thought id say kamalcon is worse than trump but she is...but im voting third party anyway. theyre both WCs.
The USA under the Biden Administration is falling apart. Genocide is called “self-defense” and is applauded by the Congress. The war in Ukraine, after the overthrow of their democratically elected government, is the US fighting for Ukraine’s “freedom and democracy”. Zelenskyy is a Dictator who has banned opposition Parties, and closed down TV stations who don't toe the line. LOL Maduro, the democratically elected Leader of Venezuela has to go. (Bashar al-Assad in Syria is also on the list) A demented senile President sits mumbling to himself, while his clueless and incompetent VP tells protesters to shut up while she’s blabbering incoherently! The US mainstream media does nothing but hate on Donald Trump ~ and lie and attack independent journalists like Scott Ritter and Max Blumenthal. The cabal of oligarchs that runs the Democratic Party, removed their Presidential nominee and anointed the unelected puppet Kamala Harris as his replacement. In any other Third World country we would call this a coup d'état. The American people must have a clear and sober understanding of the corrupt powers in the Democrat Party. These recent gangster moves by the oligarchs who control the DNC stripped away any pretense that any democracy is left in the Democratic Party As for the Green Party, Ralph Nadar, with his huge respect and great name recognition, only got 2.7% in 2000 running as a Green. Jill Stein only got 0.36% of the vote in 2012. And a pathetic 1.07% in 2016. In 2020 Howie Hawkins taking over the Green Party baton got only 0.3%. Pppfftttt! The Green Party has never got any traction in the US. And Stein has messed in her own nest with voters this election by initially promoting the race baiter goofy professor Cornel West as the Green Party 2024 POTUS candidate - until he flaked out! And the sad fact anyway is that with first-past-the-post & winner-take-all voting, and the anachronistic Electoral College with its Superdelegates, there is not even a theoretical chance a Third-Party candidate can be elected POTUS. fivethirtyeight.com/features/america-isnt-really-set-up-for-third-party-presidential-bids/ It's a systemic problem. Proven in 1992 when Ross Perot challenged GW Bush and Clinton on a populist platform of slashing the budget deficit. He got 19.0% (!) of the vote ~ but didn’t receive a plurality of voters in any state, giving him ZERO ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES.🥵 Until America changes its method of voting in its President, its stuck with its Two-Party duopoly. Voting for Jill Stein, running for the third time now and never getting to the 5% required to get Federal Funding, is the definition of wasting your vote. For the reasons explained above - she CANNOT and will not become the 47th POTUS. A third-Party Candidate has never won in 160-years If you want even a remote infinitesimal chance of America crawling out of the huge abyss that Biden administration has got the US into ~ you need to vote TRUMP/VANCE. Any other vote is irrational, naive and a vote for more of the same. More homeless in our streets. More inflation. More overseas wars. And soon American kids coming home in body bags under a continuing Democratic Administration fighting for Is_ray_hell.
Blinken is not braindead. Just look at his family history and it will tell you everything you need to know. He, like Victoria Nuland, is a descendent of Jews who left what is current day Ukraine to go the the US. The Jews in Ukraine were not very popular to put it lightly. I'll leave it up to people to do their own research to assess why. So, based on ("unfounded antisemitism" or "genuine reasons" - you decide for yourself) these people were hated. To this day, the following generations of those Jewish people have been programmed from birth about how badly they were treated and people like Blinken and Nuland hold deep, deep, hatred of the Ukrainian and Russian people. If you can understand this, and are aware that Biden has been without a sound mind his whole term, then you can understand what is happening with Ukraine and Russia.
“The difference between the Israelite soul…and the soul of all non-Jews is bigger and deeper than the difference between the human soul and the animal soul”. Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook. First Ashkenazi chief Rabbi of British mandatory Palestine. Why do they use the word antisemitism:- "When certain obstructionists become too irritating, label them after suitable build ups like antisemitic and use the prestige of anti-fascists to discredit them in the public mind constantly associate those who oppose us with those names that already have a bad smell, the association will after enough repetitions become fact in the public mind"
16:19 The colonel has a different idea of what “thoroughly and completely defeated” looks like than I do. Berlin, spring 1944, Tokyo late summer 1945 might be considered to meet such a description, but Custer Massacre is more what I think the English words “thoroughly and completely defeated” mean.
Iran has its own technical geniuses ,that are able to understand any innovation ,the relation with russia and china offer them a wealth of new possibilities.....and they are in a hurry.....
Bit unhappy about the jovial, smiling referals to the devastating Israeli terrorist pager attack...even if it had been 1000 injured not the 3000 or so it is it would still be a masdive terrible tradgedy since many of the injured perhaps the majority will have life changing awful injuries and presumably some more may still die, its a major outrage to which a reaction of outrage and anger or greif and anguish are the only reasonable human responses. This saddened me . I guess both of persons on screen have become numb to the tragedy but I think thats a shame. When I heard early this morning I was so outraged and hours later can hardly get peace in my day, that this occurred, that USA excuses it,that many will excuse it,that Israel will probably get away with it is personally intolerable to me, so no smiles no talking as if it was just a run of the mill event: its a terrorist event of massive scale in a truly indiscriminate and yes actually for once an unprecednted manner. Normally I'm a fan of the show but this was the wrong way to discuss this grave terrible tragedy in Lebanon and the worlds life..... but overall in other instances, thanks for the show.
compartmentalization is a proven strategy, hence there's even people that worked on the Apollo programs that religiously believe we actually drove around in stripped down jeeps on the moon
I have always believed that, given the American people's' will to CLEAN THEIR HOUSE they could, easily, get up of the canvas and come right back..... BUT ..... they would (for a change), have to be "Diligent and VIGILANT to keep their country free".
er, hello, "referenda in the Eastern oblasts". Already done, with formal accession to the Russian Federation. As to "we're losing, let's talk". That's what should have happened before Russia lost 200k to counter the NATO/American policy which has rejected peace and fomented war since before 2014. Too little, too late, and with the strike deep inside Russia today, I think NATO is ensuring that Russia must recognise a state of war with NATO.
Hi Nima, 10 years since the last Scottish independence refererendum. Have a look at what happened to Alex Salmond and Craig Murray. We are a small, colonized country. Obama, Hilary, Barosso from the EU, and "her majesty the queen" were against it. I dont remember Putin or the Chinese "interfering". All that mattered was Scotland's energy and strategic significance to "western" power. Not much has changed, but BRICS give me hope.
Fully agree on the only solution is a one state solution. Equal rights, no borders such as west bank and Ghaza, freedom of movement and to settle anywhere within the borders of greater israelstine…
America's political positions in both Ukraine and Israel are untenable and foolishly arrogant. Most of the world is disgusted by the irrational, non-diplomatic bullying that has been fomented by the American Government. That type of behavior is very unsettling to rational actors.

Maybe Putin will hand them all over to China as a thanks for the support and a spit in the eye of the West that can only dream about the wealth they will never get their hands on. Maybe in the end it will cause the vile and demonic leaders of the West to say that they would rather see the world destroyed then let others have a share. Are they that evil, I guess time will tell.
Religious beliefs have historically played a significant role in fomenting wars, often serving as both a catalyst and a justification for conflict. When religious ideologies are intertwined with political ambitions, they can be used to rally support, unify groups, and legitimize acts of violence against perceived enemies. Leaders may exploit religious sentiments to mobilize followers, framing wars as holy missions or divine mandates. This can lead to the dehumanization of opponents, portraying them as heretics or infidels, which further fuels animosity and violence. Additionally, religious differences can exacerbate existing tensions, turning political or territorial disputes into intractable conflicts. While religion can be a source of peace and reconciliation, its misuse in the context of war highlights the complex and often destructive power it holds in human societies.
Its zionism. A nationalist movement. And the rabbis have incorporated it into Judaism. But many jews do not practice, but are still Zionists Israel is built on Zionism. Zionism started in the late 1800s I believe. It's not part of the religion of judaism.
Love the Col’s insight!
Pie in the sky Larry. Pie in the sky!
What Col Wilkerson suggests for the future of Israel, a true liberal democracy, is exactly what Noam Chomsky was saying 30 years ago.
What was that?
what happened
Wow, it was going along so nicely till he said "Jewish PM" for a "resurrected Israel". Huh Larry? That's pretty wild I must say.🇵🇸
From the river to the sea, Palestine will NEVER be. 🇮🇱
@@janexerikus8021please, we will definitely see about that CRAP statement. ALL people deserve to live in peace and not have to worry about some other people forcing them to have to leave, no people.
kamalcon isn't going to stop this PW she has said it multiple times she will always defend nato and U jargon.. the same talking pts....
ugh i never thought id say kamalcon is worse than trump but she is...but im voting third party anyway.
theyre both WCs.
The USA under the Biden Administration is falling apart.
Genocide is called “self-defense” and is applauded by the Congress.
The war in Ukraine, after the overthrow of their democratically elected government, is the US fighting for Ukraine’s “freedom and democracy”.
Zelenskyy is a Dictator who has banned opposition Parties, and closed down TV stations who don't toe the line. LOL
Maduro, the democratically elected Leader of Venezuela has to go. (Bashar al-Assad in Syria is also on the list)
A demented senile President sits mumbling to himself, while his clueless and incompetent VP tells protesters to shut up while she’s blabbering incoherently!
The US mainstream media does nothing but hate on Donald Trump ~ and lie and attack independent journalists like Scott Ritter and Max Blumenthal.
The cabal of oligarchs that runs the Democratic Party, removed their Presidential nominee and anointed the unelected puppet Kamala Harris as his replacement.
In any other Third World country we would call this a coup d'état.
The American people must have a clear and sober understanding of the corrupt powers in the Democrat Party.
These recent gangster moves by the oligarchs who control the DNC stripped away any pretense that any democracy is left in the Democratic Party
As for the Green Party, Ralph Nadar, with his huge respect and great name recognition, only got 2.7% in 2000 running as a Green.
Jill Stein only got 0.36% of the vote in 2012. And a pathetic 1.07% in 2016.
In 2020 Howie Hawkins taking over the Green Party baton got only 0.3%. Pppfftttt!
The Green Party has never got any traction in the US.
And Stein has messed in her own nest with voters this election by initially promoting the race baiter goofy professor Cornel West as the Green Party 2024 POTUS candidate - until he flaked out!
And the sad fact anyway is that with first-past-the-post & winner-take-all voting, and the anachronistic Electoral College with its Superdelegates, there is not even a theoretical chance a Third-Party candidate can be elected POTUS.
fivethirtyeight.com/features/america-isnt-really-set-up-for-third-party-presidential-bids/
It's a systemic problem. Proven in 1992 when Ross Perot challenged GW Bush and Clinton on a populist platform of slashing the budget deficit.
He got 19.0% (!) of the vote ~ but didn’t receive a plurality of voters in any state, giving him ZERO ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES.🥵
Until America changes its method of voting in its President, its stuck with its Two-Party duopoly.
Voting for Jill Stein, running for the third time now and never getting to the 5% required to get Federal Funding, is the definition of wasting your vote.
For the reasons explained above - she CANNOT and will not become the 47th POTUS.
A third-Party Candidate has never won in 160-years
If you want even a remote infinitesimal chance of America crawling out of the huge abyss that Biden administration has got the US into ~ you need to vote TRUMP/VANCE.
Any other vote is irrational, naive and a vote for more of the same. More homeless in our streets. More inflation. More overseas wars.
And soon American kids coming home in body bags under a continuing Democratic Administration fighting for Is_ray_hell.
Lebanon has the right to defend itself.
Wow the Col talked about Climate Change.
Respect 🫡
Blinken is not braindead.
Just look at his family history and it will tell you everything you need to know. He, like Victoria Nuland, is a descendent of Jews who left what is current day Ukraine to go the the US. The Jews in Ukraine were not very popular to put it lightly. I'll leave it up to people to do their own research to assess why. So, based on ("unfounded antisemitism" or "genuine reasons" - you decide for yourself) these people were hated.
To this day, the following generations of those Jewish people have been programmed from birth about how badly they were treated and people like Blinken and Nuland hold deep, deep, hatred of the Ukrainian and Russian people. If you can understand this, and are aware that Biden has been without a sound mind his whole term, then you can understand what is happening with Ukraine and Russia.
“The difference between the Israelite soul…and the soul of all non-Jews is bigger and deeper than the difference between the human soul and the animal soul”. Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook. First Ashkenazi chief Rabbi of British mandatory Palestine.
Why do they use the word antisemitism:-
"When certain obstructionists become too irritating, label them after suitable build ups like antisemitic and use the prestige of anti-fascists to discredit them in the public mind constantly associate those who oppose us with those names that already have a bad smell, the association will after enough repetitions become fact in the public mind"
what a stupid thing to say
Wow!
He was conflating the soul with the ego. Europeans are not a semitic people. Someone has a PhD in deception and only the fools believe such bollocks.
Ashkenazi Jews are fake Jews, period.
@@stephanbilmansthat truth hurts bad doesn’t it? Jewish is NOT a ethnicity but instead, only a RELIGION! Wake up and learn something.
There is a word called 'slow poisoning'....
Larry is our WISE OLD MAN 😊
Polish minister was screaming for Blinken to get out of Poland and were not going to fight your US wars lol
Not a minister . Braun is a MP and a member of opposition party .
16:19 The colonel has a different idea of what “thoroughly and completely defeated” looks like than I do. Berlin, spring 1944, Tokyo late summer 1945 might be considered to meet such a description, but Custer Massacre is more what I think the English words “thoroughly and completely defeated” mean.
Sweden, Switzerland, and Finland were traditionally neutral. Why not add Ukraine as a neutral country?
Kirby was stiff as a board at the Biden UK meeting Kirby knew something was up .
Thanks
Hello from Holland 🌷
Col. Wilkerson is such an honest honorable man! Always speaks the truth!
A great guest.
Sikorski should get his MSM wife Anne Applebaum over there in Poland to protect him from the pranksters!
"The climate's going to kill us all"? Not Wilkerson, too!
Those Oblasts in eastern Ukraine Donbas, Lugansk etc have ALREADY voted to join Russia in 2023!
C'mon Mr. Wilkerson, you can do it better; Djibouti Port is just a mile away and Russians and Chinese have a military basis there! 😂
YOURE THE MAN NIMA..
THANK GOD YOURE THERE BROTHER!
"So nice to have your back"....Leave my back alone, Nima please!
Thanks!
God bless Col. Wilkerson
Iran has its own technical geniuses ,that are able to understand any innovation ,the relation with russia and china
offer them a wealth of new possibilities.....and they are in a hurry.....
Bit unhappy about the jovial, smiling referals to the devastating Israeli terrorist pager attack...even if it had been 1000 injured not the 3000 or so it is it would still be a masdive terrible tradgedy since many of the injured perhaps the majority will have life changing awful injuries and presumably some more may still die, its a major outrage to which a reaction of outrage and anger or greif and anguish are the only reasonable human responses. This saddened me . I guess both of persons on screen have become numb to the tragedy but I think thats a shame. When I heard early this morning I was so outraged and hours later can hardly get peace in my day, that this occurred, that USA excuses it,that many will excuse it,that Israel will probably get away with it is personally intolerable to me, so no smiles no talking as if it was just a run of the mill event: its a terrorist event of massive scale in a truly indiscriminate and yes actually for once an unprecednted manner. Normally I'm a fan of the show but this was the wrong way to discuss this grave terrible tragedy in Lebanon and the worlds life..... but overall in other instances, thanks for the show.
Larry had me up until "climate", right at the end. I didn’t see that coming.
I always thought Tony Blair was the ultimate unflushable turd, but apparently Boris Johnson is competing for the same title
compartmentalization is a proven strategy, hence there's even people that worked on the Apollo programs that religiously believe we actually drove around in stripped down jeeps on the moon
How do you know that you're antiscience
The Russians said they were up there watching. Didn’t Aldrin report to Houston “We’re not alone?”
Yup. No one has EVER landed on the moon! 😂😂😂
I have always believed that, given the American people's' will to CLEAN THEIR HOUSE they could, easily, get up of the canvas and come right back..... BUT ..... they would (for a change), have to be "Diligent and VIGILANT to keep their country free".
"Legitimate competition"?!
Exceptionalistan?!
Really Larry?!😅
They all know exactly what they are!
Smotrich, hes basically the high priest right?
er, hello, "referenda in the Eastern oblasts". Already done, with formal accession to the Russian Federation. As to "we're losing, let's talk". That's what should have happened before Russia lost 200k to counter the NATO/American policy which has rejected peace and fomented war since before 2014. Too little, too late, and with the strike deep inside Russia today, I think NATO is ensuring that Russia must recognise a state of war with NATO.
Truth teller AFTER he retired from the very industry he is now criticizing? But, yes, he does speak to truth now.
Pager bombs are not funny!
Hi Nima, 10 years since the last Scottish independence refererendum. Have a look at what happened to Alex Salmond and Craig Murray. We are a small, colonized country. Obama, Hilary, Barosso from the EU, and "her majesty the queen" were against it. I dont remember Putin or the Chinese "interfering". All that mattered was Scotland's energy and strategic significance to "western" power. Not much has changed, but BRICS give me hope.
The problem with netanyahu going down with the ship is he has nuclear weapons
Fully agree on the only solution is a one state solution. Equal rights, no borders such as west bank and Ghaza, freedom of movement and to settle anywhere within the borders of greater israelstine…
Palestinians will become homeless. Isrilites will get big donors from AIPAC to buy up all the land.
It won’t have the name “Israel” at all because “Israel” is antithetical to all the values you mentioned.
Only the Palestine state. those who have come from oceans across must leave.
Climate change 😂😂😂😂 yes, there are four seasons, THATS your change, everything else is happening because of HAARP. Wakey wakey.
Be aware of your cell phone.
America's political positions in both Ukraine and Israel are untenable and foolishly arrogant. Most of the world is disgusted by the irrational, non-diplomatic bullying that has been fomented by the American Government. That type of behavior is very unsettling to rational actors.
"Exquisite Diplomacy". HA...not gonna happen.
Two countries you cant rely on are Turkey and France
