Not going through 4 pages to see if this has been brought up, but what do you think about the American government's "relationship" with Israel? What do you think of Israel in general?
These are not "gotcha" questions, I'm genuinely curious whichever way your answers go.
re: Trump says we should increase defense spending by 50%

We need to replenish stocks that were given to Ukraine, so there is that to do
Don't forget the fact that we used up most of our strategic reserves of anti-air missiles defending Israel after they bit off more than they could chew in Iran.
Still, we don't need to spend 1.5 Trillion dollars, that's utter bullshite. Have DOGE actually audit the Pentagon & Defense contractors and I bet you'll find we don't even need to be spending 1 Trillion to maintain current operations while replenishing diminished ammunition stocks.

If there hadn't been, ironically, ICE on the road to make the tires spin she would have completely run that officer over. The officer was only able to pull his weapon and get out of the way because of the ice causing the tires to initially spin.
And finally, you choose to die on hills when you're holding the morally correct position. It's called having principles. And you don't throw people to the wolves of the left, like Chauvin or this ICE officer, simply because the Left is going to cause problems over it. If anything you buckle up and stomp the Left out even harder.
It's beyond time for Trump to use the Insurrection Act.
Guess they shouldn't have fricked with our rare earth mineral supplies...or fund massive fentanyl trafficking into our country...or been ruled by Communists...or fricking exist. :doublebird:

all that is required to be a Christian is to accept Christ as savior.
one can be saved. one cannot be a maturing Christian nor a Christian who pleases our savior or Heavenly Father.
Most Christians do not read the Bible nor pray much. they too are baby Christians.
Faith apart from works is dead.
"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven."
"On that day many will say to me, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?"
"And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness'".
- Matthew 7:21-23
Genuine belief is both transformative & restorative. It's not just a declaration you get to make and saying the words gets you in. The Gospels & NT in general constantly talk about how you must pick up your own Cross daily to follow Christ, and that we're running a marathon, not a sprint.
Works alone do not grant salvation either. But you can judge a tree by the fruit it bears. If someone professes to be a Christian, yet supports many of the outright evil policies, one might even call them doctrines, championed by Democrats then, and I fully admit neither I nor any man can know the heart of another, but I fail to see how someone can be saved, regenerated by the Holy Spirit, and yet continue in such wickedness. And there's a difference between slipping up & repenting, which we all will do, and constantly committing a sin over and over again without remorse or repentance.
Not only do I think it's become practically impossible to be a fully bought-in Democrat and a Christian these days given their positions on a myriad of issues, but I think following that party & supporting such policies actually opens one up to extremely dark forces, as we saw in the aftermath of Kirk's murder.
Or as we saw with the trans shooter's drawing of himself looking into a mirror and seeing a demon.

The SEAL commander was booted because his boys were national security threats because they're absolutely incapable of keeping their traps shut.
CAG...never hear a word. Green Berets, Raiders, Rangers, the list goes on....never hear a word.
Anytime you have SEALs on an op they spend half the mission working on a book &/or movie script to explain everything they did.

China is a paper tiger. Everyone looks at numbers and graphs and freaks out psyching themselves into believing that China is a military superpower.
They have very little real world combat experience, practically zero large scale operational experience, ZERO blue water naval experience.... there's a reason they chirp all the time but don't actually do shite. They just lost a huge anchor point, weapons importer, and source of crude oil after we took out Maduro.
The biggest threat posed by China comes from their intelligence community, which has compromised FAR too many Western institutions & leaders.
One thing we do need to do though is reestablish our ship manufacturing industry. We still have the most powerful navy on the planet, but if we were to enter a kinetic war over, let's say Taiwan, and take losses, we don't have the manufacturing capacity & infrastructure to quickly repair losses & build new ships.
I mean hell, even our ammunition stockpiles from bullets to artillery shells to missiles are largely depleted, much of it lost because we stupidly shipped it to Ukraine and then had to protect our "ally" Israel after they bit off more than they could chew with Iran.
Russia is more competent but can't project their power in a way that is a threat to us. People give them shite for taking so long with Ukraine, but Putin has run that war VERY conservatively and the Russians have literally been fighting not just Ukraine, but all of NATO including the US the entire time and coming out on top.

People are so stupid thinking Trump is a genuinely right wing figure. They have no idea how hard the fricking pendulum is going to snap back as Gen Z men get into power. Some Millennials too, but Gen Z are really waking up and no longer giving a frick about the post-WWII rules based order bullshite.

Then we take and either incorporate or liberate Western Canada and set up Eastern Canada as a giant camp to ship all of our libtards so they can have their collective WEF utopia together in Quebec.
Then we reestablish the borders before we were gracious enough to give the Mexicans their fricking Capital back and turn Northern Mexico into a giant DMZ to cut off drug trafficking and mass migration.
Then we complete the liberation of the rest of South America from Communism at our leisure while bulking up our presence in the Pacific while pulling our troops out of Europe...they've gotten their asses saved twice already, nobody gets a threepeat for free.
Then we strategically frick with and do everything we can to collapse the CCP as we did with the Soviet Union in the good old days.
I keep hearing about this thing called the "American Empire," well bitches, here it comes.

Why should the board answer someone that's so stupid to think that peace can always and only be maintained with harsh words and never action?
We didn't invade anyone, dumbass. We snatched a dictator out of his house. I don't see US Marines on patrols through Caracas anywhere, do you?
Even your critique about our interest in their oil is wrong as American companies were the ones who set up most of Venezuela's industry in the first place, so yeah even if this is JUST about oil, well they do owe us.
But this is primarily about weakening China, the world's largest importer of oil and who not only bought tons of oil from Venezuela but around 86% of all of their weapon sales to Central & South America went specifically to Venezuela. You're too retarded to know this, but it's not a good idea to have a CCP backed Socialist Dictator practically on your doorstep. China wants to squeeze us when it comes to minerals, they're about to enjoy an oil shortage.
But any type of thinking that goes beyond your immediate pussy emotions are apparently too complicated for your brain to simultaneously process.

Your Opinion, Which of These Countries Pose A Bigger Threat to USA/World; Russia or China?
Russia doesn't pose a threat to us & certainly not to the entire world. The same cannot be said for China, who, aside from funding & supplying Cartel operations that leads to tens of thousands of American deaths per year, are also already operating throughout Central & South America, AKA our backyard.
If we didn't have an administration that was completely fricking retarded when it came to this topic, we'd be seeking full rapprochement with Russia. The opportunities for economic benefits, access to rare earth & other vital minerals, and partnership in the Arctic alone would be worth it.
But, more important than any of those factors, when you're not only shifting our entire Foreign Policy framework from Europe to our own backyard and the Pacific, and doing this publicly...well, even an idiot can see that continuing to alienate & antagonize Russia, for the sake of Neocons, Ukraine, and Europe of all bloody things, is like punching yourself in the balls.
Who's more important, Europe, which will be fighting internally for its own survival in the coming decades, or Russia, who could be used to provide a further check on the Chinese if we were willing to work with them? Hell, at the VERY LEAST you don't further strengthen China by driving Russia into Beijing's arms.
It's a new world. Russia is a country I'd much prefer to have on my side over Europe & the UK when looking at how to isolate & counter China.
