Well it seems like usa is close to finishing that aid. If I'm to make believe that the words in fight will amount to anything? 

It does sounds like Biden might just stop supporting Israel soon. 

And even more if he gets elected again he might start cutting back a lot of the help to Israel.... 

Probably unlikely the US will ever stop supporting its Middle East attack dog, Biden is just worried democrat support will ebb away as the genocide becomes evident to even the most blinkered.

Meanwhile, Nutty Yahoo, thinks the harbour being built out of the rubble of Palestinian houses, including presumably the skulls and bones of buried alive children, is going to be used to exile the Palestinians out of Gaza in his fucked up ethnic land grab mentality.

The real turn around is when another nation steps in and fight a long side.... Although that might be happening but through proxies.....

Yes, the World teeters on the brink of WW3, as Macron moots marching his legionnaires into Odessa....

Here is the betting for the US election:

Donald Trump - 1.90
Joe Biden - 2.40

Michelle Obama - 17.00
Robert Kennedy jr. - 23.00
Gavin Newsom - 26.00
Kamala Harris - 81.00

Gretchen Whitmer - 81.00
Dean Philips - 81.00
Nikki Haley - 81.00

plus many others at prices higher than 100.00.

Trump is the favourite but Biden has shortened a little the last days.
But this is n't the topic here.
The topic is what are all these other names doing here ?
The answer is either of the two real candidates may die, or both.

Now watch this: From the seven substitutes whose names I wrote down six are democrats and one is republican - Nikki Haley the 9th (!) favourite at 81.00 !
The folks with over 100.00 I did n't bother to look up.

So then -the bookies reckon- Biden is with one foot in the grave between now and November, Trump will survive !

I just don't see no one stopping Russia at this moment. I'm actually surprised that Ukraine has survived this long. But can just money and some weapons really help them survive for a lot longer? 

Yes, they can. Don't underestimate peoples' will to survive and fight for their right to exist. Russia has been beaten many times by smaller nations in the past thanks to sheer willpower. Only problem these days are nukes, which is probably why the west isn't giving weapons that could actually give Ukrainians a real chance of winning. They are only giving enough for Ukraine not to lose, but also not to win. Russia's nuke threats are very effective and Putin's probably realized clearer than ever that we are a bunch of cowards.

UN Draft resolution by the US rejected by Algeria, Russia, China and many others.

The US are being sneaky, mentioning a ceasefire, but deliberately having the wording not demanding a ceasefire. Shows the powerful Zionist lobby at work again.

Meanwhile 32 000 dead, mainly children. babies and women. 12 000 permanently seriously disfigured and maimed, 74 000 injured, and thousands buried alive.

Even Schumer, (Jewish Ukrainian) Senate leader, has called them a 'pariah state'.

Big terrorist attack in Moscow. 

[Fulham Broadway 17,299]

Trump appears to be scrambling for funds to pay a $464m (£365m) fraud fine. Could the stock market ride to his rescue?

Trump Media, which runs the social media platform Truth Social, is poised to become a publicly listed company, after a majority of shareholders of Digital World Acquisition Corp voted on Friday to acquire it. Trump is due to have a stake of at least 58% in the merged company, worth roughly $3bn at Digital World's current share prices.

It's an astonishing potential windfall for Trump in exchange for a business whose own auditor warned last year it was at risk of failure.

Americans are frustrated. 

Inflation.

Cost of living.

Affordable housing. 

 

3 important things yet the government's main priority is foreign aid and false promises. The American people want a candidate that'll make those 3 a priority above else. 

Yet we'd never vote for someone who made it a priority over other things. Despite what is said our leaderships reflects the values we have sadly.

When I went to college the Greek government snatched me 10,000 drachmas = 33 euros is the conversion rate.
That was for some deposit and on my first day I went up to the dean of the London university to find an angle to take the deposit back - he could n't.
It was a strange law.
I abandoned pure maths in the Grk university to study engineering in London.
The junta government we had at the time said "since you are abandoning the Grk uni for something else it means you are probably trying to escape - so you have to leave a deposit".
Today this amount of money buys ten packets of fags and this is the work of both socialist and conservative governments.
90% the work of the socialists and 10% of the conservatives - who are promising to do away with socialist taxes and then keep them in place.
But strangely the only one who did something about taxes was socialist Simitis in 2002-2003.
We proceeded to vote him out of office in favour of conservative Karamanlis in 2004.
One year later his economics minister said "I 'm bringing all the socialist taxes back - I discovered that the socialist minister of 1994 who imposed them is a wonderful person
and we were terribly wrong about him".
I had some warning about this. One day I walked into the European commission's offices to enquire about something. The entrance hall and the porter's desk were empty and 
I saw a Christmas card open on a table and picked it up. It was from the old socialist minister to the new one saying "to Georgios my dearest of friends merry christmas - Giannos". I don't know
how that find itself there - maybe post office mistake.

I'm surprised ISIS attack them since Russia ally with Iran. And ISIS does not mess with Iran. So going with Russia is kind going against Iran.....
