I feel like Freepers should get off their knees in front of Putin. A robust ejection and rejection of Russia from the Middle East would help bring the Ukraine war to end. When you surrender on every front you tend cause more wars (see Biden era).
Russia’s actually been an okay global citizen. It’s the Euro’s who want their resources and Americans who have fallen for the Russia, Russia, Russia propaganda who need to re-examine their postures.
Conversely, I’ve noticed kids that grew up in my church, and went away to college (often Christian colleges), come home with very pejorative views regarding Israel.
They seem not to know, that Israel is one of the most technically advanced countries in the world and have a remarkable agricultural and water management industry - the world needs to learn from them.
Trump has always said Iran can never have a nuke. Iran made their first strike on us in 79. The Kenyan funded Iran’s build up. The October 7th invasion of Israel by Iran’s terrorists was the final straw. There is zero doubt in my mind Iran would send a nuke to use on US soil when, not if, they had the ability. The world is too small now to adopt an isolationist nation.
Prove your statement about the Samson option to include the US.
Is this your first time even hearing about the Samson Option? You’re unlikely to find it listed as official policy, since Israel officially denies having nuclear weapons. The policy was alluded to by Ariel Sharon and Moshe Dayan, expounded upon by no less that Martin Van Creveld. Israel’s Jericho 3 are land-based rockets, which have a minimum range that precludes use in the ME.
Yeah the Pakis have a nuke. They’ve had it for quite some time now.
But correct if I’m wrong I’ve never heard them yelling “Death To America!’’.
The Biden era told the world that the USA can be ignored
9yearlucker”Russia has actually been an okay global citizen”
Really?
One that supported the Ayatollahs, Hamas, North Korea? One that invaded Georgia 6 weeks after Georgia:s request to join nato was rejected by France and Germany”for fear that admitting Georgia would provoke Putin”
Mo, Muscowy has beed a bad global citizen and one that wants to create a globalist New World Order
No, Tucker Carlson is not Catholic. He was raised in a Protestant household and has identified as an Episcopalian. While he has spoken about the importance of faith and tradition, and has discussed his respect for Catholicism, he is not a Catholic.
Good! Our Founding Fathers intended a Republic, not an empire. Make America Constitutional Again.
Wanna compare that with the people killed and countries toppled by the West in the past 40 years?
Luther, though he is a poster boy for anti semitism and his diatribes against them were used by the Nazis, was not really an antisemite. He just hated anyone who didn’t agree with Luther’s point of view.
Luther called Calvin and Zwingli as devils, called Catholics as the devil, cursed the peasants who revolted against Luther’s prince friends etc.
Luther initially wrote good stuff about the Jews until he realised that they weren’t getting convinced by his rhetoric to become Lutheran. Then he hated them a d called for their properties to be confiscated etc.
This is quite different from the Nazi view which was Darwinian
The Russian federation dates back only to 1991. And it was a good global citizen until Yeltsin.
In any case, why are you going into whatabouttery?
Muscowy stands out for aggressive territorial actions (Georgia, Ukraine) and support for authoritarian regimes, with little regard for international norms. Its human rights record is consistently poor, and global cooperation is selective, often countering Western initiatives.
The USA, UK, and France have flaws—costly interventions, arms sales, domestic issues—but engage more constructively in global institutions and aid.
As to the rest of “the west”, I don’t see Dutch, German, Spanish etc interventions in other countries
