Not a mistake. The vast majority of Russia is in ASIA.

Sleazy of you to not show the full map of Russia. Anyway there is more to this than geography. Japan is a western country. Russia definitely isn't.

Look at a map. Next ....

A load of truth more like. Ukraine is Europe.

That's what Kremlin propaganda repeaters do.

I did some research on Montgomery AL which as the capitol city has a lot going on that a town like Florence wouldn't. It looks like you can get a very nice house there in a decent area as low as 150K. Not 100K but what do you expect in a capitol city of any state? Anyway I have rejected it not because of the hot and humid summers which are expected but the cold and humid winters which FEEL much colder than the temperatures! So far it seems further north in Alabama (Florence) doesn't have that problem.

Being accessible to Pittsburgh is a big plus. Just checked and found an acceptable one bedroom for 550! Living there I would get a better car and plan on weekly fun trips into Pittsburgh when the weather is OK. You might also want to look at Augusta GA and Columbia SC.

The housing cost vs. rental economics is very location dependent. In some places buying is overpriced relative to renting, and in others renting is overpriced relative to buying. Plus those conditions are subject to change over time. You can't really make universal generations on the issue. There are also very significant pros and cons to both choices, so it's not only an economics decision assuming a person can afford to buy something. Another factor which I don't see mentioned often is the economics of buying either with cash or mortgage when older. It seems to me if doing that, estimated life expectancy should come into play in the decision making. For example, say you have 150K in cash to buy outright. Well is that so smart to tie up all the cash including opportunity costs and maintenance liabilities if your life expectancy is 10 years? As far as mortgages retired people generally earn much less than working so any tax advantages of a mortgage may be limited or nonexistent.

Of course Hamas is to blame but that doesn't give Netanyahu a pass for failing to stop it when there were more than enough warnings that he should have done much more to do so. Netanyahu stays in power because Israel is still at war, but he really should be booted out ASAP.

I was there. No they weren't. We were against the Vietnam war. There never were any "Death to America" chants. Stop lying.

Who knew that there were more Arabs than Jews?

His scumbaggery knows no limits.

The west needs to become more committed to Ukraine actually WINNING for this conflict to ever have a decent resolution. Russian will never stop until they are made to stop.

Another one that thinks Jewish is only a religion. Such people have no business commenting on such issues until they educate themselves.

Not true. Normal opposition to Israeli policies is like normal opposition to any other nation's policies. Most Israelis and most diaspora Jews have such criticisms. However, if you're against Israel's right to exist and defend itself from genocidal terrorists like Hamas dedicated to murdering all Jews, then yeah, that is Jew hatred.

Trump / Orban / Putin anti democracy fascists all. Of course they don't want to help Ukraine defend itself against the expansionist genocidal forces of Russ.

Your irrational hatred of Israel appears to.have no limits.

Again, conspiracy theory GARBAGE.

LIES.

Someone is very angry!

So stupid that they don't realize he will pull votes from Trump.

Conspiracy theory garbage. Do you have no shame?

Enemy nation. Stay away unless you're a traitor.

The Russian openly slated goal is to eliminate Ukraine.

Exactly. They're just not into us. That's their right. Take the hint and don't try to push yourself on a country where you're not welcome. It will end in tears.
