Re: Military readiness

“Currently, the US military operates more than 3,000 slot machines on bases in 12 countries – down from 8,000 slots in 94 countries in 1999, according to the Pentagon.

Re: All Things Russia & Ukraine

Re: All Things Russia & Ukraine

All we have done is to postpone the inevitable. We can't be half in & expect to succeed. Russia is fully mobilized. Ukraine is not. The US has no coherent strategy. The EU just wants someone else to pay. All we have done is lead Ukrainians to the slaughter. ...at least those men 27 & older ...

Re: Israel and Zionism
