Sounds like all of those memes and tweets going around saying the head of the union was in league with Trump were nonsense. They would drag this out if it were just about the election. Boiling a contract negotiation down to presidential politics was insulting to that man and to union members everywhere, but don't expect an apology.

lol. Considering Trump's past with multiple marriages, rapes, Stormy Daniels, etc, this will only make him and his people think more of RFK.

 

"Special counsel Jack Smith laid out new evidence to support his assertion that Donald Trump’s efforts to subvert the results of the 2020 election were taken as a private candidate, rather than his official capacity as the president..."

I kinda understood the disproportionate response for the first few weeks of this war. I just thought they were trying to be thorough, or to make a point, so that those terrorist events didn't happen again. As time went on I started to see more indiscriminate bombing, more killing of civilians, more territory being claimed by Israel.

The pager "supply chain attack" was madness, they had no regard for who might be nearby. That seemed a lot like the terrorism this started this current leg of the conflict and was a clear escalation. They haven't been able to claim self-defense for a very long time. They are clearly the aggressors, and yup, if you try to criticize their actions you are accused of being an anti-zionist or a nazi. It's all so broken and sad.

The River Perat, commonly identified with the Euphrates River, is situated in the Middle East. It flows through several countries, including Turkey, Syria, and Iraq, before emptying into the Persian Gulf. In biblical contexts, the Euphrates River is often mentioned as a significant boundary in the promises made to the Jewish people regarding the Land of Israel.

It's not just Lebanon. They want it all, because the bible said so. The US needs to stop supplying them with weapons.

Yes, the article lists some of those reasons and it also mentions economic factors. I personally see job loss to be a huge factor in depression amongst people I know, hence my comment.
