Bro, are you sure you're not a sadist ?

Do you know what the US said after the crocus terrorist attack??

They said, even if they got intel prior to the attack, they wouldn't have shared any information with Russia.

What kind of evil animals are these??

Men seriously... the destruction caused by the fire should not be celebrated, I don't like what I'm seeing here...
It can't be karma because the political heads responsible for the destruction of Gaza are relatively safe from this disaster. It's the people who are going to suffer...

My political grievances are reserved for governments and military bodies, not the people (although they can be really stupid too)...
The guys in these areas are sympathetic to the pro Palestinian cause and they have expressed this openly and have even been attack by the Biden administration for doing so...

Honestly it's so silly that America spends her time sticking her nose up others businesses. Up till now the flooding issue last year is yet to be full addressed now we are talking of another disaster...
Meanwhile the Biden administration is planning on sending 500mil to Ukraine...

They always had it coming. These people spend hundreds of billions on war but cannot spend anything on fire prevention. Most of these wildfires are preventable to some extent. And even when they begin, they can still be controlled to some extent. It’s normal that wildfires cause damage, but they can be monitored and controlled.

With less than $10 billion, the US can easily create a dedicated wildfire service with hundreds of airplanes and firetrucks to address wildfires anywhere in the US. This service will actively engage in preventing these fires from happening, and once they do, they will prevent them from spreading.

The US Marines are staged around the world, such that they can reach anywhere within six hours. The US can expend the same energy into ensuring that the dedicated wildfire service can reach any wildfire in the US within 30 minutes and one hour.

But will they do that? Of course not. But they will rather spend that money on war and bringing disasters upon others rather than securing their own people.

The US democracy is over 2 centuries old, there's a reason why the US democracy is the longest in the world and why it has stood the test of time.There are systems placed to checkmate excesses of power.

We all saw how putin and XI manipulated the Russian and Chinese constitution to enable them rule Russia and china for life, such moves are virtually impossible in the US.

This is not about trump or what he wants, trump may not be bluffing about Canada or Greenland, he may really want Canada or Greenland, but he simply has no power to annexed any, even as POTUS he simply does not have the power to instigate a military campaign to annexed any country.. they are limits to the powers weighed by the president of the USA.

This "systems" are what has made the US the pinnacle of the free world.

Trump may post about annexing Canada, he might talk about it, does he have the ability to?? That's the question?? Trump lacks the ability to do so.

When XI and Putin talks about annexing countries, they don't only have the ability, but also possess the political power to do so, With just a command from XI the Chinese military can move into Taiwan, Donald Trump can't can't give an order for US military to invade Canada. He lacks the political power to do so.

There are civilizations and kingdoms that have been around for millenia and still exist today, and yet, somehow, you want to make a case about the US being a “democratic” country for a little over 200 years. The so-called democracy is just a drop of water in the ocean of civilization.

I won’t even go down that road over whether a two-party state qualifies as a democracy, or how the electoral college can elect whoever loses the election as president.

Clinton won the 2016 election but the electoral college gave it to Trump. Al Gore lost the 2000 election but the electoral college gave it to Bush. The same Bush would then go on to invade Afghanistan and Iraq. Does that sound like a coincidence to you? It doesn’t to me.

The powers that be will always use the electoral college to bring in whoever will start their wars into power. Let’s not forget that the same Trump tried starting a war with Iran when he murdered Soleimani. It took commonsense from Iran to avoid escalating.

But instead of going down this road of whether the US qualifies as “democratic”, I will instead focus on your failed attempt at trying to whitewash and underestimate the US imperialist tendencies as Trump being unable to do anything because he can be “checkmated.”

Well, the so-called Congress that is supposed to checkmate him isn’t saying anything. Let’s not forget that the Republican party, which Trump belongs to, also controls Congress.

Then, I think it was you who made a statement yesterday about the US president needing Congress approval to wage war. That is only on paper. You ignore the fact that the US has always staged troops in the area before turning to Congress approval.

And in certain cases, like the bombing of Libya in 2011, Obama did not request for approval at all. He just did it. You can say whatever you want about it and try to downplay it as an “aerial bombing” and not an invasion or whatnot, but it doesn’t change the fact.

If you are not a hypocrite, you should condemn the US attempt to steal Greenland, Canada, and the Panama canal.

LordAdam16:


Our resident cretins are on an extended vacation. 🙂

Sad scenes.
Thankfully, casualty count has been low.
Hopefully, it stays that way.

This disaster does highlight a critical issue.
Imagine if the USD wasn't the global reserve currency.
All of these annual disasters--the hurricanes in Florida, fires in California, Tornados in Middle America.
They'd have had a more radical impact on their finances.
But since they can just print dollars, it doesn't matter what the losses amount to.
Why should only the Americans have that privilege?

Construction and habitation should have been banned in wide swathes of these disaster-prone areas.
But they build and build. In Florida right up to the coast line. In California, right up to the forests.
Then they incur billions of $ in damages.
Print money from thin air to rebuild. Reinsure, even though that's basically rent-seeking.
Then wave their hats around about muh hIgH GDP.

-Lord

If they cannot handle these disasters despite all the free money they print from air, then god knows what will happen if they had to work for their money like everyone else. The land and houses is all fraud. Most of the lunatics who lose homes in those prime locations are millionaires and billionaires. They probably didn’t spend a dime to take those houses.

They just take loans, finance the house with mortgages, and then use the value of the home to take on more loans. Their life is financial gimmick from start to finish. As usual, it is the banks and the hardworking Americans who will suffer for this madness.

⚡Scholz has spoken out against Trump's demand for NATO countries to raise their defense budgets to 5% of GDP, according to the Focus online portal.

The German Chancellor pointed out that 5% of GDP would amount to about €200 billion per year for Germany in defense spending, while the federal budget currently stands at approximately €490 billion.

America is a strange country. They can afford trillions of dollars for war but can't provide free health care like most advanced countries, don't want to build mass housing, you keep hearing cuts to social services to balance the budget, we have too much debt, don't grant tax cut it will raise the debt. But once its war, boom, all these concerns of balance the books and debts fly out of the window

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Instead of you researching about the electoral college, you are busy writing nonsense, that's my problem with the so called "articulate bunch"

The electoral college was instigate by the founding fathers to prevent regional voting force, some states in the US have more population than others, and most times state are likely to vote base on ideologies line.

In a country like Nigeria, if the entire northern population decides to vote for a certain individual then he is sure to win because they have the majority in terms of pololuatin, that's what the electoral college was made to check mate. The electoral college means
presidential candidates needs to have a broad appeal across the country to win the election.

The Republican party and the democratic party are not the only political parties in the US, so having 100 political parties is now a yardstick to gauge democracy levels of a nation🤣

Even with the majority of the Congress being republicans you need an overwhelming majority of both sides to start a war or commit the US military into a conflict abroad.

The Libya bombing was a UNSC resolution and Yes it was funded and approved by the US Congress.

Trump is not even president of the US yet. I should condemn the US for what??

I am not here to criticize you or your assertions, but this piece seems to lack authenticity.

A compelling analysis should reflect a touch of personal sentiment, including the inevitable bias that comes with human perspective. What you’ve presented, however, feels more like a regurgitation of a system's brochure, merely reiterating well-known facts rather than offering fresh, insightful perspectives.
That said, I do appreciate the motivation behind your write-up and the effort put into it.

I get the feeling that you are saying this because you mostly agree with what I wrote. It's not compelling to you and some other people because you kinda agree with it. I'm not an expert on weapons or defence systems so I just stuck to the shiny basics like speed, range, response time and altitude so I ranked base on that.

Although I do know that some of this Air defence systems have performed better than some higher ranked ones on the battlefield .

Like how the iron dome has performed better than its Russian counterparts on their respective battle field.

Any way I'll be posting the other part of my unbais opinion on which country has the better air defence systems.
