    I need to ask, serious question here.
    I hear the Professionals talking causes, many not saying internal explosion. None of those mentioning videos that show it was engulfed in flames as it fell. The question is, am I seeing it wrong? Was it in flames as I seem to see?

    some "experts" say what looked like fire as it came down was actually it's landing/flight lights flashing as it came thru the clouds

    What President forgot is a lot of jobs here also depend on exports.

    Interesting. I have a library of books on the Vietnam War. It is odd that the US sent the South Vietnamese rice grown in the US and was sent through USAID. Combat troops found Viet Cong supply points with...guess what? Rice from USAID!

    Still do not believe that especially after seeing the one where it dropped behind a building. Looked just like flames flowing out. We'll see.

    no wonder she's p!ssed at Trump - the money's drying up
    looks like she'll have to get the "offering plate" out of storage so she can count nickle and dimes donations
    probably not wise to give it a polish with Brasso, having it look all tarnished will invoke some sorrow in that the church isn't doing that well financially

    Hey all. Just a friendly reminder that if you believe we should follow the immigration laws set forth by Congress, that if you don't believe we should be sending millions of dollars of condoms to turd countries that don't give a damn about us, that if you believe we should follow the equal protection clause as it pertains to DEI, if you believe criminal illegals should live in this county under the fear of arrest, that you are a racist. You are not only racist but hate gays, hate everyone non-white, and are the reason why this country is messed up.

    The End.

    be interesting to see the houses she and the other priests, bishops and deacons live in from that church
    bet the thought of taking a vow of poverty changed pretty quick when the cheques with all of them zeroes at the end came flooding in
    aren't churches exempt from paying taxes & one argument they always use is how they use their "donation money" to feed the poor etc? yet here they are using taxpayers $$ to do the role they say their donations are designed to do
    new financial plan for Catholic Church priests?

    Only thing that worries me, they all wanted 30 days. Watch your back Donald and keep a physical distance from Vance. They should be vety worried about what if's when it comes to Vance. If something, GOD FORBID happens, Vance would burn their house down in retaliations.

    I can barely wait to see this twit fired, by Noam herself preferably. Did you listen carefully on what Myorcus (sp?) gave them all. Regular " bonus " vacations.

    "The Pentagon has finally published its first Airpower Summary since President Biden took office nearly a year ago. These monthly reports have been published since 2007 to document the number of bombs and missiles dropped by U.S.-led air forces in Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria since 2004. But President Trump stopped publishing them after February 2020, shrouding continued U.S. bombing in secrecy.

    Over the past 20 years, as documented in the table below, U.S. and allied air forces have dropped over 337,000 bombs and missiles on other countries. That is an average of 46 strikes per day for 20 years. This endless bombardment has not only been deadly and devastating for its victims but is broadly recognized as seriously undermining international peace and security and diminishing America’s standing in the world.

    The U.S. government and political establishment have been remarkably successful at keeping the American public in the dark about the horrific consequences of these long-term campaigns of mass destruction, allowing them to maintain the illusion of U.S. militarism as a force for good in the world in their domestic political rhetoric. The new Airpower Summary data reveal that the United States has dropped another 3,246 bombs and missiles on Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria (2,068 under Trump and 1,178 under Biden) since February 2020."
    Amongst the countries bombed - Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Yemen, Lebanon, Somalia, Palestine.

    "That is just aerial bombing and does not include helicopter attcks such as the Doctors without Borders Hospital destruction in Kunduz by a Lockheed-Boeing AC-130 gunship. These machines of mass destruction, usually manned by U.S. Air Force special operations forces, are designed to circle a target on the ground, pouring howitzer shells and cannon fire into it until it is completely destroyed. The U.S. has used AC-130s in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, and Syria.
    Nor does the airpower summary include strafing runs using 30mm cannons with depleted uranium shells, or counter insurgency / counter terrorist actions"

    https://www.msf.org/kunduz-hospital-attack

    So - after being bombed non stop for 20 years, fair chance its not hard to understand why a country may not think too kindly of the US

    But they'll sure ask for our money and military might when the SHTF I'm their country, thinking too kindly or not.

    I love all your anti US propaganda and foreign pundits opining about what illusions our citezenry lives under.
    Pretty rich.

    Yet a other Disney star tanks his movie before it even airs, hopefully. Disney is a Dumpster fire and I'll say I'm glad. They refuse to wake up and shape up.
    Makes me sad because they are ruining some iconic and great movies, cartoons and characters.

    Can you just imagine, the FAA complains they are working with 30 year old tech, if they had all that money to upgrade? YET there are the congress Dems screaming over shutting down USAID. Imagine our vets are on the streets and active duty on food stamps, but Hamas are getting condoms and trans / gay muscicals are being funded around the world with our tax dollars.
