And what will you say if we don't attack?
BTW, that thought did cross my mind when I first heard about it
That region gets hit by much stronger quakes than that. A 5.1 isn't that big. Not saying they don't have a machine to do that, but that size quake is nothing to get excited about in that part of the world
The graphics and data are well done. Congratulations, you've made a post we can follow and understand
I'm Christian right and I in no way support Israel. But I get the idea, because many do.
Maybe that's why Trump met with Saudi Arabia before this started
It's all a rigged game, it's just a matter of trying to figure out their game and riding their coattails. Or make long term investments
Gasoline can occasionally inflate more than crude due to it being a value added product, but it generally doesn't get too far out of balance for very long. I remember when Bush went to Iraq, a lot of new houses were being sold to "investment firms" and nobody moved in when they closed. As inflation tried having it's way with construction materials, they would liquidate the inventory a little at a time to keep inflated housing prices from hitting the market. It might be a similar play. Sometimes I think the Democrats did this in reverse to inflate the housing market to extract higher property taxes
Interesting points. Maybe it's a rudimentary AI (Small Language Model)
I get the feeling he's translating concepts and culture from something other than a western culture and language. Sometimes it's extremely difficult to figure out the message he's trying to get across and other times I think I can figure it out
I'm not laughing, but I'm not worried either. I've met a lot of nice Persians and I wish them well. I pray they leave us alone and we leave them alone
Would it not be better to pray for God's mercy and safety for Iran and it's people than to pray for a curse?
I'm not antisemitic, but I also don't care and don't want to get involved in the affairs of the middle east. We (USA) need to be sweeping our own porch and quit worrying about what other countries are doing
Oh well. I'll take my chances in the USA
And that is why I won't pierce myself
I don't think so.... But my opinion could change. I have a feeling it will become readily apparent to those watching for him
I thought it looked like a guy
Yup, and it may not happen for a long time. Sometimes I think God allows enough time to pass to see who really believes.
The bigger question is, are Israeli's even Jews? What about Ethiopian's that claim to be Jews? I don't have the answer, but I'm keeping an open mind
Same story as climate change
No, were just fine without middle east oil. I'd rather pay more for a tank of gas than have any business with the middle east
I just want to stay away from the middle east. Nothing of value in the African continent
I've found a biblical answer to this issue. For reason of argument, let us stipulate that Jews are God's covenanted people. Let us also stipulate that God is in control and has allowed the Jews to go into slavery for lengthy periods of time when they have been in a sinful condition as well as being conquered in battle. God has also given them great victories when they put their trust in him and repent from evil.
That said, who are we to determine what God has planned for them? If we help Israel when God is punishing them, we are fighting against God. At the same time, if God wants to give a great victory to Israel, God certainly doesn't need our help.
Therefore, we should get out of God's way and let his will be done.
Thoughts on my reasoning? I believe they are pretty solid and biblical
I trust God's plan, not the plan of any man, group or organization. Jesus may not return for 500 years, we don't know. I just don't want to get involved in the middle east
Coming from the country that helped the Nazis, absolute gold
