Biden to Netanyahu: The US won’t support Israel.

[postman]

Iran is on its way to replacing Russia as a leading arms exporter.

The latest reports regarding the sale of Iran’s Mohajer-6 Unmanned Aerial Vehicles

The economic profit Iran receives in this regard is clear. It is estimated that the cost of the popular Shahed-136 is $20,000-$40,000 for one unit. This fact, together with the reports that Iran sold more than two thousand drones to Russia alone,

Iran is on its way to replacing Russia as a leading arms exporter. The US needs a strategy to counter this trend.

The US must understand the seriousness of the situation: without active measures, it will be extremely tough to stop Iran from becoming a world leader in arms sales

No, it’s my own.

You know without a doubt where you stand when someone fears or hates you. There’s no subtlety or question about what they might do.

And they'll say "I came to bury Ceasar, not to praise him."

The total estimated value of Tehran's oil exports since February 2021 is between $88 billion and $98 billion

Cool I guess. Guess they really didn’t need that extra cash from the dems

… and by becoming my enemy their life gets much shorter, very quickly.

So much for treating others as you would like to be treated. You go through life creating enemies, and it's YOU whose life gets much shorter, very quickly.

Since we are apparently using Palestine and Hamas interchangeably, should we do the same with Mexico and the cartels, or illegal immigrants and ms 13? That would certainly make things more bitchable, and help with virtue signaling.

The idea makes you sound incredibly “bitchable”.

That’s fine. I would rather be killed by a mob in front of me than a coward behind me. Of course Caesar didn’t even get that minimal respect.

Which is why I don’t even trust those who are supposed to be my friends.

Far better a short, honest life than a long one always looking over one’s shoulder.

Don't forget Israeli bombs. (mostly unguided) that rained indiscriminately down on Gaza. Their version of going after Hamas, was to take down the entire neighborhood Hamas was hiding in.

Why so few deaths with all that indiscriminate rain?

But he has a point. We should lump all white people in with the racists and the anti-semites.

With the attitude of everyone not 100% loyal, is the enemy.
I can see why you can't trust your friends.

I learned the blackness of the human heart before I even got to kindergarten. Regardless of race, gender, religion, etc…

Over 30,000 is so few deaths?

That's more than we lost in Vietnam under Johnson, or under Nixon.

You must have had a very bitter childhood.

Having only friends who could prove themselves 100%, and everybody else the enemy.

Yes, after 6 months, 30,000 dead (according to the terrorists) is few.
If it was genocide, or indiscriminate, it would be much, much higher.

I’ve never had many close friends. I found I rarely need them. I have books. I have my writing. I have my career. Even my relationship with my wife is far more mechanical and businesslike than most other people.,

There were over 880k Vietnamese that were killed…I don’t recall anyone saying LBJ was committing genocide

That's more than the equivalent Japanese causalities in Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.

And if you listen very hard, the tune will come to you at last.

Genocide in Vietnam? - Volume 17 Issue 2

The final question put before the Tribunal was: "Do the combination of crimes imputed to the Government of the United States in its war in Vietnam constitute the crime of genocide?" The Tribunal voted unanimously that "the United States Government [is] guilty of geno- cide against the people in Vietnam."

He should wear a hat to cover it.

Equivalent? Tell me more.
