The G7 is a nursing home.

When the camel falls the knives are many. Old Arabic saying, I think relevant here.

The only “upside” is that Putin’s Russia doesn’t look like it will be able to sustain itself for as long as the Soviet Union could after WW2

How so? Russia is in an up and coming economic bloc. BRICS is only going to grow unlike the G7.

It can absolutely happen. Nothing stopping a republic from becoming a dictatorship. If it happened once in history, it will happen again. This thing in particular has happened multiple times. The US may show more resilience but in the end, it is a human system run by humans, and it will be broken by humans.

It is easy to understand. The people who the Republican party appeals to are unlikely to vote Democratic, the Democratic Party by trying to appeal to them it is losing its base while not winning any Republican voters. The people who are likely to vote Democratic are more idealistic and will hold the Democratic Party to a high standard. The promised “push to the left” never came, and so the people are looking at two right wing candidates, the Republicans already got their guy in Trump and anyone even slightly left of center has no one to represent them.

In 2020 he still wasn’t Genocide Joe though.

We told you back in November but no one listened.

I still won’t buy Italian cars

I like the idea of a maximum wage

I hope this encourages them to leave, they threatened they’d rather die, leaving should be an option for them now. Not sure what the long term ramifications will be for Palestinians and the survivability of the occupation, but I’m hoping for the best.

Hezbollah was never afraid of the US. It is not Saudi Arabia or Egypt.

Involvement in war crimes in Iraq and Afghanistan perhaps

No lies detected. The indigenous peoples know it

It is unique in the perpetrators being colonizers.

I hope I get to sell my house and leave before it all comes crashing down.

Hezbollah never counted on the US, are US leaders this misinformed?

I never thought heat would be an issue in Île-de-France

Maybe world leaders will finally be pushed towards diplomacy. As far as I see it, the region needs deterrence against foreign aggression. Just look at what Russia did to Ukraine after it gave up its nukes, or what the US did to Iraq and Libya. I don’t want that to happen to any other country in the region. Iran, Saudi Arabia and others all have a right to nuclear weapons. Israel already introduced them to the region and they are as fanatical and genocidal as any country can be.

The only country that ever used them is the US. The only countries that its elected politicians regularly threaten to use them are the US and Israel.
