There's very bad news regarding Yemen, Israel, Palestine

* I support the people of Israel and Palestine . They all deserve peace and safety.
I hope that a two-state solution will be realized soon. May Peace Surround Us All.

There’s very bad news regarding Yemen, Israel, Palestine. The Houthis are launching ballistic missiles into Israel as retaliation for US bombing Yemen. Israel continues brutal air and ground assaults on Gaza and bombing Lebanon, expanding into Syria.
My gut tells me this is on purpose by #47 and the oligarchs to trigger a terrorist event on US soil and/or justify US military actions in the Gulf States/Mideast. And you know where that goes. #47 is itching to have a justification for martial law and arrest/deportation of Muslims… and eliminating our rights.

Keep your cars filled up and keep some cash at home.

Seems like at some point the funding and supplying by Iran needs to be dealt with in a meaningful way.

cabal that wants to grab territory and resources will manufacture an enemy if they have to. Netanyahu now says that no rebuilding of any kind is to be allowed south of the Litani River and he now insists being able to control literally half of Lebanon. He'll come for the other half later. Likewise in Syria they are keeping the new people in control from being able to exert that control over the whole of the country. The incoming people are well thought of by the Saudis and others so the musical chairs game goes on and there is no end in sight to the grab for territory and resources by the US, Israel and Russia.
