'We' being all of us? The human race.

That's how I'm reading it.

I thought it meant the American government, the administration then was manipulating the election. Zelenskyy I thought won quite handily and is popular there. Never heard anything about him being installed

Anyway, Iran will accept crypto


Iran will demand that shipping companies pay tolls in cryptocurrency for oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz, as it seeks to retain control over passage through the key waterway during the two-week ceasefire.

Hamid Hosseini, a spokesperson for Iran’s Oil, Gas and Petrochemical Products Exporters’ Union, told the FT on Wednesday that Iran wanted to collect tolling fees from any tanker passing and to assess each ship.

“Iran needs to monitor what goes in and out of the strait to ensure these two weeks aren’t used for transferring weapons,” said Hosseini, whose industry association works closely with the state.

“Everything can pass through, but the procedure will take time for each vessel, and Iran is not in a rush,” he added.

Decisions on the conditions for passing the strait are taken by Iran’s Supreme National Security Council. Hosseini’s remarks suggest Iran will require any tankers to use the northerly route close to its coastline, raising questions over whether western or Gulf state-linked vessels will be willing to risk transit

Zelensky is the "Jewish" figurehead installed to siphon money from the liberals.

Netanyahu is the "Jewish" figurehead siphoning money from both sides.

Together, they're taking us right down the drain.

Fortunately, maybe Trump finally realized who the problem is:

You started the thread crying about Olympic athletes not liking Trump you moron.

Literally pulled all of these issues from a quick search on this forum.

David Gee: "What a bunch of self-absorbed losers. People are trying to enjoy the Olympics but these useless sacks of shit go out of their way to try to ruin everyone's good time to call attention to their special agenda."

Ohhhh noooo!!! not a few athletes saying they're unhappy the US... and now you can't enjoy it!? POOR YOU DG! SUCH A VICTIM!!! You're such a fucking cry baby. Literally you doing exactly what I said Conservatives do b/c they have to invent problems b/c you have nothing better to do.

Now que some retarded retort lacking substance about how you "owned me."
MIght want to make your searches a little less quick. That was about the protestors who showed up at the Olympics, not the athletes. And it wasn't about Trump, it was about ICE. I get that your narcissism is overpowering you and you're flustered, but slow down.

And seriously, you're sitting there devoting your time searching feverishly for a random post of mine from yesteryear that has nothing to do with the price of tea in China and then picking it apart like it's the Zapruder film? That's actually quite creepy. I mean, are you even CLOTHED while you're doing all this?

Hegseth says we won, cool. Of course it involves more military stationed there
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth claimed Wednesday that American forces have secured a “historic and overwhelming victory” against Iran but said military assets will remain in the region to ensure Tehran’s new leaders comply with the terms of a tentative peace deal between the nations.

“We’ll be hanging around. We’re not going anywhere,” Hegseth said during a Pentagon press conference a day after President Donald Trump announced a two-week pause in fighting amid peace negotiations. “Our troops are prepared to defend, prepared to go on offense, prepared to restart at a moment’s notice with whatever target package would be needed.

That's a point, that's the deal here in the south China Sea, the confrontations with China. It's all about freedom of navigation. Is Trump conceding it on that side of the world?
CNN’s Fareed Zakaria said late Tuesday that conceding even temporary control of the strait to Tehran amounted to handing Iran a “weapon” that is “far more usable than nuclear weapons.” He added that it conflicts with more than 200 years of American foreign policy, which has prioritized freedom of navigation

Drowned at his baptism...
Robert Smith, 61, from Brixton, London, died from drowning at an address on Slade Road, Erdington, on 8 October 2023.

Cheryl Bartley, 48, was charged with one count of gross negligence manslaughter in relation to her role as a pastor during the baptism, the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) said.

Bartley, of Erdington, will appear at Birmingham Magistrates' Court on 14 May.

The BBC previously reported that the man was taking part in the ceremony carried out by Life Changing Ministries in a small pool in the property's garden.

The baptism event was streamed live on the church's Facebook page, but the stream was cut during the event and the video later removed

More context doesn’t change the point moron.

It’s still you getting your panties in a bunch over something minute and insignificant.

You sitting there crying about a couple protestors ruining your experience watching the Olympics, to the point where you had to start a thread about it, proves my point entirely.

I'm going to get all philosophical and heartfelt here, but have a look at this picture. It was taken by the NASA Artemis team. Kinda puts things into perspective. Especially the part about our razor-thin atmosphere that allows all life on this planet to flourish. People (especially these chuckle head politicians) need to step back and remind themselves of this.
