Meanwhile, American arms shipments to Israel:

"If you don't cooperate, we'll sic our IDF attack dogs to genocide you guys too"

Apparently they took out Mossad's HQ in Iraq lol

And killed one of the big Israeli oil traders

When Samsung controls the country, I guess this isn't that unreasonable...

Yeah it would really suck to have a door blown out or a cracked cockpit glass.

Isn't this... A huge break from traditional Chinese foreign policy?

Calling for the sovereignty of a de facto independent state? I don't see how this statement could be made unless a huge leap has been made in cross-Strait relations with Taiwan. Maybe Lai's statement on the DPP not pursuing de jure independence was enough, which is significantly different from Tsai's posturing.

I'm not going to question your Bible studies, but I am absolutely going to question your communism studies.

I'm absolutely disgusted by the behaviour of the Canadian government wrt Yemen, and again wrt Gaza.

I just really don't understand why we're so keen to do whatever our southern overlords ask of us.

We even gave up Bombardier's crown jewel because of US bullshit.

Have you quantified that?

Still whataboutism

You're comparing crude oil to refined products.

Germany's economy is deep in the gutter and they need a scapegoat

Some Mesoamerican groups saw population growth under early Spanish occupation, too.

Whataboutism

That's correct, but also even more absurd of a position.

This the the textbook IDF playbook: flood the zone with shit so people don't care anymore.

PPP is a far more relevant metric for less globalized economies which are less reliant on foreign imports.

Whereas Russian imports are 15.6% of GDP and Chinese imports are 17.5% of GDP, imports in Western countries (UK, Canada, France, Germany, Spain) make up about 40-50% of GDP on average.

Wait, can you cite this?

Sort of is lol

Russia overtakes Germany to become fifth biggest economy in the world in GDP on a PPP basis
