Foreign aid should be treated like defense spending: if it's good for US interests, it's worthwhile. Strong, robust allies are in America's interest. Someone should explain why it is in America's interest to cut off aid such that Russia overruns Ukraine and Iran dominates the Middle East.

re: Trump policy on Israel and Ukraine

Trump wouldn't do much different on Israel. He has said Biden is not supportive enough. But, other than saying a few mean things to Bibi, Biden hasn't restrained Israel whatsoever.
I have no idea about Ukraine, but Trump is saying they need more aid, which is not a good sign for the non-interventionists.

Yes, pecker. I believe that beauty in our cities is important.
That said, this thread feels like a larp.
ETA: you don't have to promote beautiful architecture. Beautiful architecture comes with having a population of European heritage. If you don't have that then it won't matter how many fairs you have

House Passes Hate Speech Resolution

377-44-1: House passed a resolution that the "slogan, 'from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free' is antisemitic and its use must be condemned."
No word yet on the southern border or hate speech protections for Christians. I'm sure free speech warriors like Shapiro will be quick to condemn this resolution

Used to be the US could alter world events. Now we sit around with our thumb up our ***. Europe should just carry on without us. And that's what most of you want anyway. And I'm sure it will turn out just the way you want it to.

US told them stop hitting oil referneries because it'll drive up oil prices
Ukraine told the US we won't stop until you gives us aid
They keep telling us if you get give them aid Americans will have to die fighting Russia

Good
It’s time to protect our hegemony. If we don’t step in, who will? And next thing you know, if we don’t stop Russia or Hamas now, they could be at our doorstep.

Yeah, a lot of this has been known or theorized about for many years. None of it is surprising, but this article has apparently picked up steam on FB recently and the posting of it was subsequently banned.
I think it's important that people understand the absolute mess that we've created in the ME when considering our further involvement in the conflict between Israel and Iran.

Another interesting note in the article is that the current iteration of ISIS is currently at odds with China, Iran, and Russia. They're essentially a dark-money mercenary group at the service of the US, Israel or Saudi Arabia.
How CIA and MI6 Created ISIS
Posted by Pecker on 4/17/24 at 12:42 pm
quote:
So it was that the CIA and MI6 began supporting Sunni “nationalist jihadists” throughout West Asia. The next year, Bashar Assad rejected a Qatari proposal to route Doha’s vast gas reserves directly to Europe.... As extensively documented in WikiLeaks-released diplomatic cables, US, Israeli and Saudi intelligence immediately decided to overthrow Assad by fomenting a local Sunni rebellion, and started financing opposition groups for the purpose.
This effort became turbocharged in October 2011, with MI6 redirecting weapons and extremist fighters from Libya to Syria... The CIA oversaw that operation, using British intelligence as an arm’s length cutout to avoid notifying Congress of its machinations. Only in June 2013, did the Agency’s cloak-and-dagger connivances in Damascus become formalized - and later admitted - under the name “Timber Sycamore”.
quote:
At this time, Western officials universally referred to their Syrian proxies as “moderate rebels”. Yet, Washington was well-aware its surrogates were dangerous extremists, seeking to carve a fundamentalist caliphate out of the territory they occupied.
quote:
These factions included Al Qaeda’s Iraqi wing (AQI), and its umbrella offshoot, Islamic State of Iraq (ISI). The pair went on to form ISIS, a prospect the DIA report not only predicted, but seemingly endorsed

If you truly believe there will be cheating/tampering/illegal voting then you almost have to assume there's very little chance of a Trump victory.
