  1. The first paragraph makes the question in your reply pointless! By quoting only the second paragraph, you make my post look as if I were supporting Hamas.
  2. You truncated my post. Reported.
  3. It's quite likely. I always thought that the Palestinians would (maybe) have obtained more by applying Ghandi's precepts. However, it also demonstrates once more that Netanyahu's policy has not brought peace and security.
  4. It's on News TV channels, also in the live feeds on CNN or BBC website.
  5. Wow! 17 soldiers! It will surely change the fate of Ukraine! BTW, what's your source? RT Sputnik, YouTube?
  6. Previous governments obviously didn't invest enough. However, how would roads, bridge etc... be, if Obama hadn't spent this (albeit insufficient) amount of money?
  7. What price are people paying in London, Paris, Tokyo, etc...? The price of gas was lower pre-Covid in every country, and inflation was also much lower. What a coincidence! ???? Could it be that there is something like a global wholesale oil price, as well as global inflation? https://www.macrotrends.net/1369/crude-oil-price-history-chart
  8. The latest news... JOBS REPORT STUNNER: US economy creates 336,000 jobs in September, nearly twice the number expected The new report marks 33 straight months of job gains, .... https://news.yahoo.com/finance/news/jobs-report-stunner-us-economy-creates-336000-jobs-in-september-nearly-twice-the-number-expected-123822203.html
  9. Another B.S. No Evidence Ashley Biden Said She Feared Her Father 'Coming in the Shower' with Her The alleged quote has been circulating online for months without a shred of evidence to support it. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/ashley-biden-diary-afraid/
  10. Kiss of death? Donald Trump endorses Jim Jordan to succeed Kevin McCarthy as House speaker https://news.yahoo.com/donald-trump-may-visit-capitol-175821945.html
  11. My post was not a claim. It was intended to highlight that it was not the first time the right-wing made baseless claims about it.
  12. The usual B.S. No Evidence Ashley Biden Said She Feared Her Father 'Coming in the Shower' with Her https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/ashley-biden-diary-afraid/
  13. I also heard he met her in the basement of a pizzeria! ????
  14. She was not appreciated, I don't deny it. However she cannot be held responsible for the funny story you mentioned. Her predecessors were. You claim It's irresponsible for EU commissioners to make such declarations? What would be irresponsible would be to let Putin believe that he may have a chance to win because of decreasing Western support (which is exactly what the MAGA right-wing is doing in the U.S)., and thus encourage him to go on.
  15. Ooops! I forgot Giuliani's involvement in promoting the ridiculous 'Crowdstrike is Unkrainian' conspiracy theory! ???? Senators briefed that CrowdStrike theory is Russian-backed disinformation campaign https://www.axios.com/2019/11/22/ukraine-election-meddling-briefing-conspiracy-russia Even his pals warned him Lindsey Graham warns Giuliani to make sure Ukraine dirt isn't Russian propaganda https://www.axios.com/2019/12/29/graham-giuliani-ukraine-russian-propaganda
  16. I remember that. It was funny! As to Von Der Leyen she's been in this job for a bit more than one year and cannot be held responsible for faulty guns bought 5 years before. Actually she was the one who had the wehrmacht audited and started to improve this situation. Probably not the best minister but still better than the previous one. Coming back to your initial comment, how many leaders ex Sunak or Macron had a military experience?
  17. They never stop trying! #MAGAliarfascist! In October 2022, PolitiFact also debunked a claim about the viral clip after some social media users claimed the in-question remark was about Jill Biden, underscoring the president is nearly 10 years older than his wife. https://www.snopes.com/news/2023/10/04/biden-video-she-was-12-i-was-30/
  18. And it's not as if most country politicians hadn't any military experience! Oh wait!
  19. Joe Biden lied about the value of his properties? I didn't know that! ????
  20. Never heard of Derkach? ???? Trump's personal attorney Giuliani meets with Ukrainian MP Derkach in Kyiv (Photo) They discussed the creation of an inter-parliamentary group, 'Friends of Ukraine STOP Corruption.' https://www.unian.info/politics/10782149-trump-s-personal-attorney-giuliani-meets-with-ukrainian-mp-derkach-in-kyiv-photo.html Treasury sanctions Ukrainian lawmaker who met with Giuliani to smear Biden Andriy Derkach, a pro-Russian Ukrainian, has promoted discredited allegations against the Democratic presidential nominee. https://www.politico.com/news/2020/09/10/treasury-designates-anti-biden-ukrainian-lawmaker-for-sanctions-for-election-interference-411750 Zelenskiy Strips Citizenship Of Four Ukrainian Lawmakers, Including Putin Friend Medvedchuk Derkach has been a Ukrainian legislator for more than two decades, but investigators believe he received more than half a million dollars from Russian law enforcement and intelligence agencies "for subversive activities against Ukraine during 2019-2022." He has not attended a parliamentary session since February. Medvedchuk, a longtime Ukrainian political fixture to whose daughter Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly godfather, was detained in April and handed over to Russia in a prisoner exchange in September. https://www.rferl.org/a/ukraine-citizenship-medvedchuk-derkach/32218343.html
  21. One of the main issue is the Senate, its role, and most of all how it is selected. - 1997: elected - 2007: half elected, half appointed by the yellow-green establishment, - 2017: 100% appointed by the yellow-green establishment, - 2024? It is highly critical for the establishment. It has already lost most of its popular support, so if it loses the ability to control the Senate, It would be a major loss of political power. Not to mention that, as the Senate is involved in the selection of agency members an judges, it may also progressively lose its grip on them too. They will fight like hell to keep some power.
