Yeah, they pretty much are constantly disrupting gatherings at Al Aqsa. Wasn’t that long ago they went in with flashbangs and were beating old men and women with batons to drive them out.
All because some kids in the area threw rocks at the IDF.

Debt colonialism doesn’t equate to the kind of cross bonding and trust that leads to actual solid alliances.
China’s naked imperial ambition gets in the way of it ever actually establishing meaningful, trust-based ties with other nations.
These countries take advantage of infrastructure loans, but the reality of what China is actually doing (screwing these countries with debt they can’t pay then taking back the infrastructure in order to establish a foothold globally) is sinking in with these countries.
Belt and Road is simply a way of using debt to sieze land that China can’t take through brute force. Has absolutely nothing to do with “western chauvinism”, the CCP is toxic to geopolitical progress, especially if you are actually concerned with helping developing countries grow into independent, stable and self-sufficiency.
Belt and Road is just debt colonialism. They’re screwing the countries that they push their debt into. No, the CCP is bad for the world and for China and are the reason they are isolated geopolitically.
China isn’t the world though. The CCP has isolated China more than they’ve done anything else. No real allies, no geopolitical trust etc.

The living memory of the war is close to gone at this point, it’s only something most of us understand through reading and media.
It’s kind of a sad reality that some people can only understand a thing after they experienced it. Fascism is one of those things that cycles up again and again and needs to be defeated and restrained in perpetuity.

Well, good. As an American it’s shameful that our conservatives here have stalled further contribution from the US, but I’m glad the EU stepped up.
You need to learn to take responsibility for the things you say.
Nothing made up, you joined into a conversation that starts with someone claiming the Taliban is “stabilizing” for Afghanistan. Someone listed many egregious atrocities committed by the Taliban that highlight how absurd that claim is. Your response then implied the Taliban was the same as the US and pretended you couldn’t tell the difference.
So you’re either claiming the US was the same as the Taliban, thus also a “stabalizing force”. Or you’re claiming the US committed mass rapes and executions.
Or, you know, the third option of you don’t actually give a shit about Afghanistan and just saw an opportunity to try and vaguely disparage the US.
But let me guess “nO.”
