So it's the end of France too maybe? Eastern Europe will surpass Western Europe by 2040.

Massive demonstrations by ultra-Orthodox Jews because of a change in policy for forced conscription.

Israelis were told by the Zionists in being told Israel was a "safe place". Now more and more are realizing they were lied to. Here is the video:

She makes an argument that Israel as we know it may cease to exist. Jews are already a minority, Israel is losing settlers through emigration and not getting as many settlers as it once did.

I think hippos can be quite ferocious too ... but not sure. Surprised they were so timid here. Wonder if they are sedated.

Yeah, Robert Clay Allison would agree with you. He was "selectively lethal".

mullahs are better than trump.

Yes, but you can have multiple bank accounts. If they charge ATM fees, use another account for daily use. Just keep the minimum amount in the Kungsri account to keep it active. I guess you also need to use the ATM ocasionally to keep the account active. I would find out what that is and then use another account (ie Bangkok Bank) for daily ATM withdrawals.

Iran has been a bully to several neighboring countries. https://www.counterextremism.com/topics/iran-and-its-proxies Some of Iran’s proxies in the Middle East include Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria, Hamas in Gaza, the Houthis in Yemen, and others. Where its proxies have not been able to take root, Iran has engaged in subversive activities via the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) to undermine its rivals and enhance its influence. Iran’s quest for regional dominance has created tremendous instability in the region and inflamed wars that have left thousands dead.

Yes, but possibly ushered in by AI .... to save the day? Because the 3-4 year timeline takes us to 2029 - 2030, about the time a lot of experts are predicting massive AI roll out. Rocky road ahead ...

Thanks for doing the heavy lifting and reading the full article meticulously for me.

There's a conspiracy floating around that at least one reason for this war (there are probably 15 reasons), is that Trump has a diabolical scheme to pay off the debt more quickly. War = higher oil prices and then blah blah (I don't understand all the economics), but ..... a massive continuing devaluation of the US Dollar over the next 3-4 years, because this makes the debt easier to pay off. So all US citizens need to brace for possible continued devaluation of the US dollar over the next 3-4 years. But of course this theory could be total nonsense.

I was withholding stating it explicitly because many people already think I'm an ahole, but .... to play devil's advocate I am thinking maybe they took the drugs willingly, and the spiked drink theory is false. Not trying to be disrespectful to the victims, but if I was an investigator on the case, I would consider that possibility.

Is that common? To spike drinks with heroin and cocaine? Never heard of that before.

Not to mention expand its territory. Some conspiracy folks are connecting this Iran situation to the Greater Israel expansion plans. But Netanyahu has talked about it openly, so it's not conspiracy. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/netanyahu-says-hes-on-a-historic-and-spiritual-mission-endorses-vision-of-greater-israel/

3Numbas -- sounds like the name of a rap group.

What if Putin and Xi both go down soon?

Another Sachs video popped in my feeds. Now he is claiming "The End of Zionism is Nigh". Actually, maybe I shouldn't have dismissed him so lightly. It does appear that anti-Israel sentiment is rising, so maybe Sachs knows something we don't. So it may be plausible, but counter-intuitive as Iran was one of the Zionist's biggest obstacle ... But this is BIG news if there is any truth to it. For decades Israel pretended to be an innocent country established after the horrors of the holocaust for the protection of the Jews. Turns out, it was all a lie. The zionist project is much older and has little to do with the wishes of the Jews when it was established. Inherently a christian doctrine, Zionism was always a plan to resettle the jews of Europe even against their will and to dominate West Asia in the process. Today, prof. Jeffrey Sachs and prof. Yakov Rabkin are discussing the past and the future of a racist settler-colonial political project that has become so violent in the past decade that the entire world now sees it for what it is. An irredeemable political sin.

Never heard that theory before. But Trump just claimed that Iran wanted to take over the Middle East and would have not only obliterated Israel, but other Arab countries. So could be. He keeps insisting that he doesn't want wars and he is preventing WW3. Maybe Iran was a genuine threat and he had no choice. Let's see what other information comes out.

I don't think it was lack of empathy. Anyway, we don't know what we don't know. But she did make a comment that can lead one to surmise.

It's a controlled script, with hidden agendas. They tell you what they want you to know. I follow crackpots. The crackpots are shooting in the dark. They don't necessarily know everything, they don't have access to insider information because they don't have friends at the Pentagon. However, they can be pretty smart and put clues together and it's mostly more accurate than mainstream stuff. But so many theories out there about this war, so hard to know what's going on.

Yeah well, I do like to know what may have happened to lead this woman down this tragic path. Unfortunately, we never get too many details. But you're right, speculating is stoooopid.
