“The Russian economy is going to collapse and then the Ukrainians will win” is a line that’s been printed since the war started.

China do not wsnt to take Japan

Historically, it’s been the other way around

Isn’t Japan also hosting an enormous US Naval buildup right now?

This feels like a repeat of Ukraine/Russia.

CIA is the major constant but I’m sure some rich and powerful men carried between the two

The CIA is, at it’s heart, a cartel of rich, powerful WASPy families from the 1950s

Did we ever get a count of how many were working for Israel?

Protestant is a form of Christianity

It violates a litany of Christian teachings.

The US isn’t Christian, it’s New Age Protestant.

Idk about “the same”.

Epstein was very NY/London/Paris focused, while Franklin was run out of the Midwest. Epstein sourced a lot of his victims from the collapsed USSR block, while Franklin was pulling kids out of the US foster system.

If I had to guess, Tom DeLay and Jack Abramoff were closer to Franklin than Epstein.

Mossad and the CIA were already joined at the crotch going back to their foundings.

Section 224 of the NDAA calls for expanded US–Israeli coordination in the areas of defense tech, including AI, quantum, autonomous systems, directed energy, cyber, and biotech.

Cool. We’re all getting in on the same set of contractor scams.

I’m convinced we are in WWIII

I’ve heard people speculate that it’s more like WW5 or 6, depending on how you want to count global conflicts between superpowers.

But from the US perspective, we’re a far cry from the kind of Total War we engaged in during the 40s.

This war only feels existential if you’re on the receiving end.

Rheinmetall platforms with airburst ammunition

There’s a reason you might not want to be firing shrapnel explosives over the heads of your own citizens.

But hey, it’s Israel. Maybe they don’t give a shit.

what does it cost to maintain the iron dome when your batteries are depleted and the missiles are on backorder?

Iron Dome is specifically for short range rockets and mortars. David’s Sling is intended to defend against ballistic missiles like those used by Iran. The Arrow System is intended to counter ICBMs as part of a constellation of US based anti-ballistic systems. I’m not sure that last one has been used in more than test shots

This is like the articles that talk about trumps base turning on him. No they’re not

We get the “Putin about to be toppled from within” article every couple of months going back 20 years. It’s just a thing Western Media likes to print.
