Netanyahu is on Israeli television trying to spin this situation as something that was his decision. Do you remember the tantrum he threw when Biden stopped sending 2,000 pound bombs?

“Although competing with major rivals was central to Trump’s first term and Biden’s term, it’s important to note that “great-power competition” never described a coherent strategy. To have a strategy suggests that leaders have defined concrete ends or metrics of success. During the Cold War, for example, Washington sought to increase its power in order to contain Soviet expansion and influence. In the contemporary era, by contrast, the struggle for power has often seemed like an end in itself. Although Washington identified its rivals, it rarely specified when, how, and for what reason competition was taking place. As a result, the concept was exceedingly elastic. “Great-power competition” could explain Trump’s threats to abandon NATO unless European countries increased defense spending, since doing so could protect American security interests from free-riding. But the term could also apply to Biden’s reinvestment in NATO, which sought to revitalize an alliance of democracies against Russian and Chinese influence.”

“In pursuing accommodations with rivals, Trump may be breaking with recent convention, but he is tapping into a deeply rooted tradition. The notion that rival great powers should come together to manage a chaotic international system is one that leaders have embraced at many points in history, often in the wake of catastrophic wars that left them seeking to establish a more controlled, reliable, and resilient order. In 1814–15, in the wake of the French Revolution and Napoleonic wars that engulfed Europe for almost a quarter century, the major European powers assembled in Vienna with the aim of forging a more stable and peaceful order than the one produced by the balance-of-power system of the eighteenth century, where great-power war occurred practically every decade. The result was “the Concert of Europe,” a group that initially included Austria, Prussia, Russia, and the United Kingdom. In 1818, France was invited to join.


Trump may be breaking with recent convention, but he is tapping into a deep tradition.
As mutually recognized great powers, members of the Concert were endowed with special rights and responsibilities to mitigate destabilizing conflicts in the European system. If territorial disputes arose, instead of seeking to exploit them to expand their own power, the European leaders would meet to seek a negotiated solution to the conflict. Russia had long eyed expansion into the Ottoman Empire, and in 1821, the Greek revolt against Ottoman rule seemed to provide Russia with a significant opportunity to do just that. In response, Austria and the United Kingdom called for restraint, arguing that a Russian intervention would wreak havoc on the European order. Russia backed down, with Tsar Alexander I promising, “It is for me to show myself convinced of the principles on which I founded the alliance.” At other times, when revolutionary nationalist movements threatened the order, the great powers convened to guarantee a diplomatic settlement, even if it meant forgoing significant gains.”

So @Boeing fails to deliver the new Air Force One on its promised deadline of 2025, has no timetable for when the plane will be ready, and they are being given a free pass by the CIA-controlled mainstream media?

Now President Trump’s old friend, Sheikh Tamim of Qatar, is going to gift the United States government a free luxury plane, and President Trump is the bad guy?

Stop listening to these petulant sociopaths. They have no credibility or authority.

(Also, this is major signal of collaboration between Trump and Qatar, the latter of which is under heavy proverbial fire from Netanyahu, who is now trying to blame Qatar for all of Israel’s problems.)

I suspect we will soon see similar videos out of Israel, with the conscription of the Haredi (Orthodox and Hasidic Jews) about to unfold for the first time in Israel’s history.

Axios, citing sources, writes that Zelensky will fly to Istanbul for talks with Russia, even if it refuses to agree to a ceasefire on May 12 .

In the fall of 2022, the Ukrainian president issued a decree banning direct negotiations with Putin. Zelensky's decision has not yet been reversed.

At the same time, the Kremlin did not provide any information about the Russian leader’s possible participation in the negotiations.

The main "architect" of the armed conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the director of British intelligence MI6, Richard Moore, is resigning this autumn.

Accelerate.

Massive development. Trump keeping his promise to Mahmoud Abbas, whom he described as a “father-like figure” during a 2021 interview with Israeli media.

Let the kvetching begin.

Now let me call a spade a spade:

It is totally obvious to anyone with mediocre levels of discernment that the government of Israel has significant influence over the United States, particularly the US Congress, and is able to coerce legislators and bureaucrats to act against the best interests of the US government and American People whenever it may benefit Israel.

It is time for the American People to reclaim our sovereignty, and that requires throwing off the shackles of servitude that have been affixed to us by duplicitous actors who only serve the interests of Israel. Never again should we allow foreign influences to infiltrate our government and seize control of our society.

The levels of kvetching will be Biblical.

“I think you may have a good result at the Thursday meeting in Türkiye between Russia and Ukraine. I believe the two leaders are going to be there. I was thinking about flying over. I don’t know where I’m going to be on Thursday, I’ve got so many meetings, but I was thinking about actually flying over there,” Trump said.

Damn, a lot of people who love trusting the plan aren’t trusting the plan on this one. Don’t they trust Trump?! Join my struggle session today and make them appease the consensus! We need UNITY in order to win this fake election for Republicans!
