The war is with Arabs. But other than a pound note in their pocket they have just created a monster by keeping the peace. Iran wants Mecca. The region is doomed.
Trumps a curious one. He tells countries to pay up on defence then takes over from the rich Arabs. Huh are they paying up in other ways

The UAE bought billions of his crypto, his profiteering and corruption are off the scale and barely a word is uttered, hunters laptop and Hillarys emails still get more press than world liberty financial

Quite amusing to see Trump perplexed when other countries don't follow his America First line but put their own countries first.

It's all about the exchange rate, which currently stands at around 17 drones for 2 Patriot missiles . .

Trump should ask Zelenskyy for help - Ukraine has lots of experience downing Shahed drones…

.... and, with a bit of luck, may not see too many more.

It's 20k for a drone and 4 million for a patriot missile, so I make that 200 drones per patriot missile, hell of an exchange rate that...

Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War
from what i've seen on TV the easiest way to stop a shahed drone is to put a block of flats in front of it

I wasn't talking of the finances involved, more of what's being thrown about from one side to another

Re: Israel, Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran … War
Pete Hegseth (US Secretary of Fox News) has stood up and claimed an American submarine just became the first since world war 2 to torpedo a warship. I can’t help wondering how ‘facts’ like this get circulated - surely if someone imagined it might be true, they would have to go and check to make sure first? Otherwise by what basis would you imagine it was true? Annoyingly, this little candidate for Most Stupid Thing the Trump Admin Has Said Today (and let’s face it, it’s a crowded field) just gave handwringing Bowen the chance to remind everyone watching the 10 o’clock news how ‘controversial’ the BBC has always thought the sinking of the Belgrano was.
Mr Hegseth, the crew of HMS Conqueror would like a word.

It is, though he failed to make that distinction in his press conference.
