It's not just Glubb. The Changing World Order by Ray Dalio also arrives at the 250 year number.

Regardless, that is the number we are interested in.

We're talking about the average life expectancy of an empire. It's a fairly straightforward calculation if one has all the data ready.

Thankfully, nothing lasts forever.

250 years is just a rough estimate. As an expert, what's the number you've arrived at?

Maybe the downvoters are just waiting for a credible western media outlet to pick up the story.

Oh wait... 🤔

Clinton comments on NATO expansion [1998]

Least mentally deranged neoliberal btw.

The Ministry of Truth has arrived, as expected.

That guy really thought it was the fault of NATO/Ukraine/whoever…

Maybe he just hasn't seen all the evidence yet. He just started after all.

I watched it on youtube - not really into all that military stuff personally but I'm glad I saw it.

Damn.

My posts are getting downvoted immediately. What's up?

Thank you Jeff, I enjoyed your talk very much. Peace through peace!

of the pot calling the kettle black

I agree with you. There's nobody here I would vote for personally.

The discussion in the video is focused on this speech: (Vice President JD Vance Delivers Remarks at the Munich Security Conference) so I recommend watching that first if you haven't seen it yet.

Democrats and Republicans, the two sides of the same imperialist coin.

There are 2 rightwing parties in the US. If you are a leftwing voter and live in the empire or any of its vassal states, you're wasting your time.

I should have said other sides, there are many.

Average western news enjoyer
