It is incredible that country whose economy and institutions are rapidly decaying, finds time and resources to occupy itself with such a stupid issues. Antisemitism is out of fashion.

For 30 years China has manipulated its currency, subsidized its manufacturers and targeted US industries for destruction with predatory pricing. While at the same time choosing to drift away from importing US ag products. Ungrateful arrogance. Maybe Brazil can buy cheap Chinese electronics with the US dollars it’s generating by selling soybeans to China at cut rate prices. I’m sure that will work out great.
You forget (I’m giving you the benefit of the doubt) that it was not China who started the trade war.
Of course China is a bad guy, Russia, Iran, North Korea they are all bad guys, dictatorship, commie etc. Only USA is a good guy, beacon of democracy, freedom, fair play etc.
I do not understand why Jews often use term Judeo-Christianity, when it suits them, and at the same time spit on Christians in Jerusalem and prevent them to celebrate their religious festivities?
From historical facts we know that there is no such thing as “Judeo- Christianity”

'Israel is not committing genocide in Gaza,' UK government concludes
The new ruling differs significantly from the government's previous position, which was that only courts can decide whether or not Israel is committing genocide.
By MATHILDA HELLER
SEPTEMBER 9, 2025 00:22
The British Government has determined that Israel is not committing genocide in Gaza, Deputy Prime Minister David Lammy told the chair of the international development committee in a letter on September 1.
This differs significantly from the government’s previous position, which was that only courts can decide whether Israel is or is not committing genocide. It also marks the first time the UK government has stated explicitly that Israel’s actions in Gaza do not count as genocide.

https://www.jpost.com/international/article-866809
Of course is “GENOCIDE” UK government is
Complicit and their opinion is irrelevant.
Not only it is genocide but it was confirmed many times in a statements by Ben Gvir Smotrich, Mielkowski etc
I'm still waiting for someone/anyone to logically and coherently inform us exactly how this Palestine state would function, given that it has multiple governments, is currently represented by two (soon to be three) geographically separated territories, has a large diaspora, is utterly dependent on Israel for water, has no real natural resources, would continue to be completely dependent on aid handouts from the UN and other countries to survive, has no military and will not be allowed to have one by Israel in any case and is and will continue to be occupied by Israel until all terrorist factions are destroyed.
"These 15 will join 147 U.N. members that have already recognized Palestine as a legitimate state, some going back to the 1990s."
This is fair assessment. Two state solution is just stupid game West is playing to justify their incapability to solve the problem. The only solution is that all the Jews return to the countries where they came from and continue to live as they did thousands of years.
Given that Israel and its approximately 10 million citizens, about 20% of which are Arabs, generate a GDP of over $500 billion annually, are at the forefront of technology development and have generally put together a state country, they are not going anywhere.
"This is fair assessment. Two state solution is just stupid game West is playing to justify their incapability to solve the problem. The only solution is that all the Jews return to the countries where they came from and continue to live as they did thousands of years."
Let us make a point that Annalena Baerbock was named chair of 80th General Assembly of UN.
This is an outrageous decision and just shows what kind of institution UN is and who rules the world.
26 countries offered to send “peace” troops to Ukraine to “guarantee” peace, and people of Gaza?
And Germany would be the shitty, co-opted country that just blocked a united front on EU sanctions against Israel [Jpost link in comment #7].
Former German foreign minister Annalena Baerbock was elected President of the General Assembly’s 80th session on 2 June. Her appointment comes as the regional group that includes Western Europe takes its turn at the helm of the world body.
Ms. Baerbock received 167 votes following the secret ballot. Write-in candidate Helga Schmid (also from Germany) received seven. Fourteen delegations abstained.
https://www.un.org/en/delegate/annalena-baerbock-elected-president-80th-general-assembly
Actually, President of the GA. We must consider how the official is selected. That explains a lot. The presidency rotates by region, and this year it was the Western European region, mostly comprised of EU/NATO countries. Obviously Baerbock is anti-China/ Russia, and pro-Israel.
Let us make a point that Annalena Baerbock was named chair of 80th General Assembly of UN.
A body (SCO) that represents half the world and doesn’t have the nerve to name or condemn the genocidal entity massacring unarmed civilians will not amount to anything.
SCO is mostly concerned with trade, energy policy, etc. It is not a univocal political alliance, or a military alliance such as NATO. It falls short of an economic alliance like the EU. To expect more from it is a total misunderstanding of its purpose and goals.
When it comes to foreign policy it is up to individual member states to confront issues like Gaza or the Ukraine. Therefore you must look at the individual SCO members’ Gaza statements in order to have an idea of each country’s specific position.
SCO has however called for an end to civilian killing and supports a cease fire along with a negotiated settlement.
In fact, of the members, all have supported the Palestinian cause diplomatically and with aid– the exception could be India, which has officially been more ‘neutral’, maintaining as it does closer ties with Israel than the other SCO members.
Finally, from a geographic standpoint, the only SCO member that is considered ME is Iran, and they have engaged Israel militarily.
To therefore claim that the organization will not amount to anything because the organization has not somehow confronted Israel’s genocide in Gaza is a non-sequitur, and totally confuses the point of the organization.
Now that you know that, can you tell us exactly what you would want, say Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, or possibly the Kyrgyz Republic to do to support Gaza, that they haven’t already done?
As does Israel. The Hamas/Islamic Jihad/etc,. have been attacking Israel from Gaza since 2006.
"The Palestinians have a right to self defense. "
Or the best solution would be that all Israeli Jews relocate to Uganda. I’m sure Uganda will welcome them.
Besides there is no war only genocide.
Jews invented Hamas and now use it as alibi, but there will be war. Real war with Iran.
Whatever your cynical efforts WE all know what you are and who you are. World hasn’t seen, since killing of Jesus Christ , the worst people on the face ot the earth. Just continue good luck.
Many people may not be aware of the extent to which computer and networking hardware and related products are designed in Israel, or whose design, manufacture, and delivery Israeli entities can control, influence, or compromise.
". . . Israel is known to be the source of much of the world’s most controversial spyware and hacking tools, used by repressive governments the world over to surveil, harass, and even kill political opponents. This includes the notorious Pegasus software, . . ."
Important fact is that all these countries call themselves “democracies” 🤮
Nobody can or will stop Jews in their goal to eradicate Palestinians and even Muslim neighbour countries But what than? The END. (not a happy one for Jews) /
And to absolutely no effect, which should illustrate to any intelligent person the abject impotence of the UN in all things. This organization should be permanently disbanded.
"Israel stands against almost the entire world in its endeavor to block the two-state solution. Already, 147 countries recognize the State of Palestine, and many more will soon do so. One-hundred and seventy U.N. member states recently voted in support of the right of the Palestinian people to political self-determination, with only six opposed (Argentina, Israel, Micronesia, Nauru, Paraguay, United States)."
Read carefully Balfour letter ( the part quoted but Mr. Sachs) and admit to yourself that you Zionist have never even respected that and that you are sh*****.

First convert from Jewishness to Christianity was Jesus Christ. He hated Jews and they asked Romans to crucified him. So how can we say that today there is Judeo-Christianity. Jews spit on Christians in Jerusalem and prevent celebration of Easter mass etc etc.
No wonder that antisemitism is now prevalent feeling worldwide.
You mean that the bleeding hearts who earn their daily pay by distributing unlimited, generational, never ending welfare aid to Gazans, allowing them to expand their population of dependent mouths and bodies by at least an order of magnitude are up in arms over the Hamas propaganda images and videos?
"The international community, of course, is up in arms. "
You u have to accept gracefully that you lost. You are now hated by the entire world. Antisemitism is very mild description of the state of affairs.

We all know whom we have to thank for this massive organised immigration.
POINT is that Iran’s nuclear program was not important. ( proof is that just in a few days during “negotiations” before war, US was presenting more and more unrealistic conditions, i.e. to Iran or else 👻. )
Main POINT is that Israel wants territory and Iran’s submission and together with US opportunity to pilage Iran’s oil, gas, and other commodities.
Now when Iran proved to be capable practicaly to destroy Israel’s economy, infrastructure, and impose heavy losses, now everybody is pleading for “peace”.
OK bombing will stop, but we will se now who is the bigest loser in this short war.
Tex of Balfour declarattion. Jews never respected last paragraph!

Previously one provocateur here wrote:
“WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT”
so far it seems noting.
Balfour declaration stipulates very clearly the conditions but Jews from the start never respected ond letter from it. That is who they are

It seems like paradox that this, basically incompetent, policy towards Russia and China, produced
opposite results. China and Russia learned all the tricks that West uses, and are now together advancing very fast technologically, economically, militarily , diplomatically etc.
US and EU have no chance to “contain” this trend. War could be the only solution but that too will end in disaster, as proved in Ukraine.
Paidea of Barbara Spectre is paid by Swedish taxpayer. Shame on Sweden.
This author identifies the problem apparently without recognizing it. While the following sentence is seemingly relevant and true when taken at face value, the core idea is completely misguided and false and gives up the game.
Trump was at the time in mid-campaign, and unlikely to have been following the complicated minutiae of the Ukraine war too closely.
The US and NATO have attacked Russia with a long proxy war using Ukraine as a pawn starting long before 2014. The Russians decided to publicly respond to this existential threat in 2022. The complicated minutiae are not needed to understand the fundamental problem. The West just needs to stop the proxy war. At that point the hostilities can rapidly end or at least this would be true if the West were “agreement worthy.” Absent that, it is not clear if there is any resolution short of the total destruction of Ukraine and incorporation of the smoking rubble into Russia.
It seems unlikely, though not impossible, that the people behind the Kellogg plan are so stupid that they think the plan is reasonable from a Russian perspective. Most likely they see a Russian rejection of the plan as an opportunity (excuse) to increase NATO’s role in the fighting which is what they probably wanted to do in late 2021. From Trump’s perspective it may seem like a good opening offer in a deal where opposing sides have positions the other sees as wildly out of touch with the possible. From a more serious perspective it could be a trial balloon to learn about the state of the Russian economy as well as the the outlooks of the dominant oligarchs and the Russian military leadership. If the Kremlins do not politely reject the plan out of hand it may be a sign of some internal weaknesses inside the Russian halls of power. The plan also tells the Russians very clearly that Trump is not in control of the US policy on Ukraine, despite any pretensions to that effect. In this respect Trump is in the same position as Zelensky.
In recent articles John Helmer discusses the Pentagon advisors who are probably behind the Kellogg plan. Unless these people are fired soon, Team Trump may bumble us into World War Three.

Excessive and problematic use of cell phones and the internet may negatively impact cognitive function and critical thinking skills. Studies have shown that excessive screen time can lead to deficits in attention, working memory, and executive functions, potentially increasing the risk of cognitive decline, according to the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Furthermore, digital use may decrease critical thinking skills, impacting decision-making abilities.
Here's a more detailed look at the potential impacts:
Cognitive Decline
Attention and Focus:
Excessive screen time can disrupt attention and focus, making it harder to concentrate and sustain attention for extended periods.
Memory:
Overuse of digital devices may impair short-term memory and working memory, affecting the ability to recall and manipulate information.
Executive Functions:
Executive functions, such as planning, organization, and decision-making, can be negatively impacted by excessive screen time.
Brain Structure and Function:
Some studies suggest that prolonged exposure to screens may affect brain structure and function, potentially leading to cognitive impairment.
"Digital Dementia":
A term used to describe the potential impact of over-reliance on digital devices for memory and cognitive tasks, leading to cognitive decline.
Critical Thinking
Decreased Critical Thinking Skills:
Excessive digital use can lead to a decrease in critical thinking skills, impacting decision-making abilities.
Poor Decision-Making:
Problematic use of technology has been associated with poor decision-making, potentially due to disrupted reward processing and a preference for immediate rewards over long-term gains.
Increased Susceptibility to Misinformation:
Excessive time spent on screens, especially social media, may make individuals more susceptible to misinformation and manipulation.
My approach would be to drop all sanctions and continue the proxy war, except switch sides and back Russia. The greatest threat to our country is the worsening economic and moral philosophies of globalism. Defeat globalism quickly and for all time by supporting the traditional social and cultural values of authoritarian governance.
The West just needs to stop the proxy war.
Precisely. Kellogg is a dimwit, I heard him in a discussion answering questions - embarrassing. He does not even recognize the fundamental reality that the losing side (NATO), spearheading the conflict, cannot dictate or concoct any workable agreement. If Trump wants early resolution of this war and initiate good relation with Russia, he must fire these illiterates.Replies: @QCIC

You will degenerate and regress. Higher civilization will be lost as you de-evolve downwards into your primitive religious roots—those well limned by the author above. The West would never recover and truly, Asiatics would dominate all the globe. And they won’t put up with your bullshi*. You’ll find yourself on the short end of a very sharp, pointed stick. "

## Israel's Global GDP Ranking
Israel ranks **28th in the world by nominal Gross Domestic Product (GDP)**, with a GDP of approximately $514 billion (current US dollars) as of 2023[2]. This places Israel just behind the United Arab Emirates and ahead of Austria in the global ranking of economies by total GDP[2].
## Additional Economic Context
- **GDP per capita**: Israel ranks much higher in GDP per capita, at 13th in the world, with a figure of around $58,270 in 2023, reflecting its status as a highly developed economy[1].
- **GDP growth**: Israel's economy grew by 2.42% in 2023[2].
- **Global share**: Israel accounts for about 0.48% of the world's total GDP[2].

Nobody can deny ( even if they wish ) the fact that Jews are prominent in many areas of human activity, science, performing arts, literature, etc. ( many other nationalities are as well, but they are not so skilful in advertising their achievements )
BUT this fact is not an alibi for Jewish genocidal, abominable, disrespectful behaviour towards all other humans. Not an alibi to exploit others, to start wars, to kill opponents, to bribe politicians etc etc etc.

It becomes more and more clear, that Germany never had a government after may, 8th 1945, or more exactly, since the conditions of the Versailles treaty were handed over 100 odd years ago. Ever since, it has been a toy for rich people in London and New York, preferably to set it up against the nemesis of the West which is Russia.
The old Bundesrepublik was allowed to prosper as a showcase against sowjet eastern Europe to demonstrate that the West simply did everything better. Michail Gorbatschow dismanteled the sowjet empire in the sincere believe that those honorable West german leaders like Kohl, Schmidt and Genscher represented the essence of Western politics.
So liberal, prosperous federal Germany has fullfilled its mission more then thirty years ago and it is about time to dismantle that awkward charade.

Where is the circle? Ukraine never had the votes to join NATO so in hindsight should Putin have invaded Finland? USA didn’t tolerate Russia placing missiles in Cuba. Russia is not tolerating NATO trying to place bases in Ukraine.Why don't those bases exist in the Baltics given that they already border Russia? Explain these planned bases for us.

I always find this kind of litany amusing. China invented paper and printing, but did nothing with them until Europeans spread books, literacy, and knowledge around the world. China invented the compass, but it was Europeans who explored the globe and mapped every nook and cranny of every continent. China invented gunpowder, but used it for fireworks, not to fight off their enemies, and then they spent hundreds of years complaining about their enemies conquering them. China may be great at inventing things, but doing nothing with your inventions is not the own of the West you think it is. Why did China have to wait for Europe to give it the Industrial Revolution?
China invented paper, printing, the magnetic compass and gunpowder – the four inventions described by Francis Bacon as marking the modern world from antiquity. All these inventions didn’t arrive in Europe until centuries later and were the foundation of the industrial revolution.
Again, China invented stuff. The West invented stuff and then used it to change the world.
Other [inventions] include complex irrigation systems, cast and wrought iron, bridge building, large scale public works (such as the Great Wall), and advanced ship building.

Not at all, actually.We have to consider Trump’s war on the deep state, I mean to say, as something of a global phenomenon, or at least a phenomenon evident throughout the Western post-democracies. Among AfD’s core positions, those that win the party votes, are its opposition to excessive immigration and to the wasteful war in Ukraine, and the need to repair ties with the Russian Federation. In these aspects, AfD’s political combat bears a close resemblance to Trump’s.

DEEPSEEK response to question
“Is AI dangerous?”
AI’s potential dangers depend on its design, application, and governance. While AI offers immense benefits, it also poses risks that require careful management:
### **Key Risks**
1. **Bias & Discrimination**
AI systems trained on biased data can perpetuate harmful stereotypes (e.g., unfair hiring tools, racial bias in facial recognition). Addressing data quality and algorithmic fairness is critical.
2. **Job Displacement**
Automation may disrupt industries like manufacturing, transportation, and customer service. While new jobs will emerge, transitioning workers may face challenges without robust retraining programs.
3. **Security Threats**
Malicious uses include deepfakes for fraud, AI-driven cyberattacks, and autonomous weapons. These could destabilize trust in media, escalate conflicts, or enable large-scale hacking.
4. **Privacy Erosion**
Mass data collection for AI training raises surveillance concerns. Unregulated use in policing, advertising, or social scoring could infringe on civil liberties.
5. **Existential Risks (Long-term)**
Hypothetical advanced AI (AGI) misaligned with human values could act unpredictably. While speculative, researchers emphasize “alignment” research to ensure safety.
6. **Environmental & Social Impact**
Training large AI models consumes significant energy, contributing to carbon emissions. Social media algorithms may also amplify polarization or addiction for engagement.
### **Mitigation Strategies**
– **Regulation**: Policies like the EU AI Act aim to ban high-risk applications and enforce transparency.
– **Ethical AI Development**: Prioritizing fairness audits, explainability, and inclusive design.
– **Collaboration**: Governments, researchers, and industries working on safety standards (e.g., OpenAI, Partnership on AI).
– **Public Awareness**: Educating users about AI limitations and misinformation risks.
### **Balancing Risks & Benefits**
AI already aids in medical diagnostics, climate modeling, and disaster response. Its risks are manageable with proactive governance, ethical practices, and global cooperation. The goal isn’t to halt progress but to ensure AI aligns with human well-being.
In short, AI isn’t inherently dangerous, but its risks demand responsible stewardship to maximize benefits while minimizing harm.
Aaah. And who will be the responsible stewards who will guard the responsible stewards? Us or AI? Who of us? Which of AI?
In short, AI isn’t inherently dangerous, but its risks demand responsible stewardship to maximize benefits while minimizing harm.
OK. AI than can be applied to books, textbooks, scientific articles an so on. AI will be more intelligent every day but we the readers will be less and less inteligent.
Sad use of AI. I like long articles why shorten them.
Breaking leg of the opponent is nothing new. It has been always US policy strategy and tactic.
Why are all these evil an criminal peope labeled LEFTISTS instead of special sect of FASCIST, ? unseen so far in History.
“Seducing Arab leaders” is like calling all Americans dirty racists. Bahrain, the UAE, and possibly Marco are corrupt, brutal dictators who are completely dependent on the U.S. to continue a life of slave-master relationship with their poor foreign workers, who constitute the majority of the population of both entities. Further, Morocco had contact with its diaspora decades before the “Abraham Accords.” The overwhelming majority of the Arab leaders are against the “Abraham Accords.” Trump is a master of bullying. He is like a boxer who has never won a boxing match. Trump is bought and owned by the Jews. The Jews have a ton of dirt on Trump. All of it on videos. Trump will do whatever the Jews direct him to do, serving Jewish Zionist interests.
October 7 was the only act available to the Palestinians to expose the Jews as barbaric, bloodthirsty child killers who use the fabricated lies of “antisemitism” and “Holohauxs” to manipulate public opinion and threaten anyone who opposes their crimes. In other words, it forces other countries and peoples to see the real Jews. October 7 also uncovered the long fraud of the “two-state solution” promoted and spread by the US-EU Zionist agenda. What have the Jews gained since October 7? Will the American people continue to play dirty goyim, serving Jews at the expense of their own interests?
The 1970s "oil crisis" was caused by the US pandering to the tribe. King Faisal (assassinated) who was a massive supporter of the US stated that the conflict would over in two weeks if the US stopped arming Israel. In 1974, he got the Arab League on board proposing that there would be full diplomatic relations with Israel if they withdrew to the borders of UNSC Resolution 242 and recognized a Palestinian state. Israel refused. It needs to be emphasized that both the PLO and Hamas have accepted UNSC Resolution 242 and Israel continues to reject it. Israel has no borders and never will.Replies: @Notsofast

It is a very good description of society and American capitalist system we live in. Small part of society is obsessed with “games” electric cars making money in spite off the fact that the whole “market” is a fake etc.
On the other side largest part of population is hungry, homeless, druged, without healthcare, disinterested and so on. Sportsman, politicians, gamers……are paid astronomical sums of money and when fire starts we do not have fireman or hardware to save us. Same will be with soldiers, policemen, nurses……. This can’t last for much longer
It is so strange, stupid and confusing that native tribes (Apache, Seminol etc) are called the same name as people from India….. INDIANS.
At the same time after killing all native tribes and stealing land from native tribes and establishing
the great country of USA now white “colonists and settlers” Anglosaxsons and Europeans, basically, are complaining about Indians, Jews, Latino……
I wasn't aware that ALL native tribes were killed. Amazing what you can learn here at TUR.

That might just be due to, you know, the reports Columbus wrote for Isabella, considering that he got his funding for the trips by telling her he was going to find a shorter route TO INDIA for a leg up in the lucrative spice trade.

The NBA metaphor is interesting at many levels, but primarily because it fails so badly. Consider the recent decline in viewership with the NBA:
Analysts have offered differing factors to explain the decline:
– NBA’s embrace of BLM during the 2020 season, as well as all their stupid leftwing Boomer politics. Management clearly supported this, presumably because they thought it wise to ride the psyop wave, and likely because of ESGesque economic reasons. But it ruined the experience for the fans who only wanted a fun escape.
– Steph Curry chucking up 3-pointers from midcourt has ruined the beauty of the game, but since he can hit them, it made sense for the management to allow this. Then it became a fashionable norm, and now everyone is trying this strategy. But the result has been a garbage product that the fans have grown to hate.
– “Resting” the top players, something the wretched coach Popovich started. Basically, management found that the regular season games were not terribly important, so why risk injury to the star players? Who cares that the fans have paid money to watch these stars play, and they are just sitting on the bench?
In all these cases, the management made decisions that benefited them, but at the expense of the fans. IOW, Elon and his ilk are making decisions that benefit them, and they don’t care about the American people except to avoid their wrath. They placate the fans/people as best they can while making decisions that ultimately ruin the game/country.
Why to bother scoring goals when the opponent will soon start scoring autogoals. That is much easier.
I do not understand why people follow UNZ review and Pepe and Whitney just to criticize them and insult them.
Why don’t you watch Christiane Amanpour, Politico, NY times etc. These are media for you.
A little closer look at the design of a dollar bill and US passport will explain to you what is USA.
We must combat anti-semitism!!! ???
It sound like antisemitism is a terminal disease. To be labeled as antisemite it is like to be diagnosed with leprosy. One has to be put in a special asylum etc.
People have to understand that nothing is wrong to be an antisemite. It is just a view and stand on international politics and geostrategical situation. Nobody has to be afraid of beign labeled antisemite.
World will become very bad place if WE do not combat zionism and semitism.
Hopefully
If Escobar is Moscow paid delusional and Putin has been chosen by Kissinger with aim for Russia to work for US and Jevish interests than Escobar is actually indirectly paid by Cia no?
One should read Balfour declaration carefully, especially second part…. conditions for establishing Jewish state in Palestine
Hamas is not an alibi for 75+ years of oppression and terror and crimes against
Palestinian people ( and many other people….. Ukrainians among others). You shouldn’t take just a bits of history that suits You. WE all know the full history.
Game is not over yet. Let us wait until the fat lady sings.
It is time for Khorasan army to start moving and fulfill the profecy.
What is Israeli football club doing in European football championship. That is the main question.
And Maccabi “supporters” will come again. I think Debrecen is the next venue match agains Besictas.
Hopefully Turkish supporters will arrive to Hungary, as well, to watch the match.
Most of those in Asian championships wouldn't want to play with them.

Any others would be banned after what happened in Dam.
And Maccabi “supporters” will come again
What? Just to watch?
Hopefully Turkish supporters will arrive to Hungary, as well, to watch the match.
This is article from RT, but it is blocked by “Western countries” ? 🥺
In Jerusalem Jews are spitting on Christians and priests. Has Vatican ever reacted…no. Why.mnn
We should ask why Jameson, A123 and the rest of the "Christians" on UNZ never react on the Persecution and attacks on Christians in Palestine 🤔

Obviously, supporting fascism and genocide are famous “European values ” that Europe is promoting throughout the World.
I have only one question: what the hell has to do Israel to do with the European football cup?
Why Israeli clubs are playing in European championships ( football., basketball etc)!
Jordan Libanon Egypt they are not Europe so they cannot play ? 🥺 But they are in the same region as Israel …Middle East no ?
So much about European values and so much about prosecution of hate speach and racist behaviour.
Europe is fuc…d.
Russian sportsmen are excluded and if they are not they cannot have their country’s name anf flag
displayed, but genocidals can say and do whatever they please. Nobody can say or do what is necessary so that Europe becomes again a normal society.
There are Muslims and “muslims”.
Look up Quranic view on Russia and Eastern Ortodox…….. by Sheikh Imran Hossein on you tube
What do you mean? That Muslim rapists are actually “muslims”? I.e., not true Muslims?
There are Muslims and “muslims”.
Barbara is Israeli Citizen, not American, sent to Sweden. Thist travesty is paid by Swedish taxpayer. (must see this nauseating creature ) Jews will teach European multicultural living with 20+ different races and nationals and they cannot live with only one, Palestinians and are resorting to brutal genocide. 🤮
If Sadam had WMD, America would have never dared to attack him. It is as simple as that.

Your comment is seriously out of context. Where is this “ad hominem” ? Ochs? No it is a comprehensive analysis of NY Times history which is the base of todays role with the same goal but of course adjusted to the present environment. If you want to contest the content you have to specify what is untrue in the article.
