It’s like they really want to discourage tourism.
And it totally is. Stupid, and traitorous.
Aren’t you already seen as the 51st state?
Edit: I don’t mean to defend that at all. I’m just saying that Canada is already in Trump’s crosshairs. This doesn’t fundamentally change the situation.
And American ones who see the danger and have the means to go abroad.
Oh, they know. This was intentional, including nominating Kamala Harris, so Donnie could win and the oligarchs could grab more power.
Now it’s high time for European leaders to show their support as well.
The brain drain has started.
Yes, I did click through to the findings PDF and carefully looked at how the questions were worded.
For Israelis peace means not getting attacked any more by any of their neighbours.
No surprises there. It mostly shows that Israelis do not trust the Palestinian Authority, and who can blame them?
There’s a lot of bad blood between them, but that does not mean they do not ultimately want a peaceful solution.
Do you have data that backs that up? Because I think most Israelis do want peace, if that means they no longer get attacked.
There certainly are Israelis who want to listen. But unfortunately Netanyahu does not.
“I don’t regard Putin as a bad guy,” he said.
Then you have lost your moral compass, and you out yourself as aligned with the axis of evil.
“a conflict as bitter and complex as this”
Huh? How is it complex? It is very simple. Putin wants Russia to expand to regain its “former glory”. Zelensky is not rolling over but defends his country. The West supports Ukraine to honour the Budapest Memorandum but also to have access to its resources. They are hesitant to send boots on the ground to prevent escalation.
If you are referring to the Budapest Memorandum, the UK signed that as well.
I propose a deal. It could be known as the best deal ever! The US ramps up support of Ukraine, so they can finally beat Russia and get peace. Then invite Ukraine into NATO. This also forms a buffer for Europe against Russia. Then Europe will send you all the eggs you need, for free.
Indeed. Putin is the root cause of this crisis.
“I don’t want to drag NATO into that” is not exactly a smackdown. It’s a polite refusal to support the idea.
Smells like Russian sabotage.
