There was one for the USA, Australia and NZ (ANZUS) but the USA is still sore about NZ giving them the fingers and took their toys away. You’d think that would be pretty easy to get back up and running properly and add the UK back in.

Actually, as someone who was in those ambulances for over a year, we helped injured Palestinians (Mostly because of violence in their own society, crime is huge there) while their ambulances were many times slower to arrive.

If Israel was serious about "Attacking ambulances and medics", there would be no Palestinian ambulances and medics.

But don't let reality get in the way of your delusional narrative.

Also, rocks? Really? You do realize the IDF faces gunfights, explosive charges, traps and much more on a regular basis, right? Why would you lie about that?

Worth noting that the original reporting just says "Torah" and not "Torah scroll". So it is quite likely that it is any of the books with a translation of the Torah that you can buy in any bookstore for like 20€ that he planned to burn. Basically, for his purpouse is it likely good enough as long as it says Torah on the cover.

Annus horriblis just means terrible year. It’s an emotive statement that could very well mean a number of things depending on context.

The bottom line is that this whole “crisis” would’ve already been forgotten if it weren’t for the self-serving effort of the anti-nuclear lobby to keep it in the public discourse.

Their neighbor being China, may eventually encourage them to be more of an Ally than they would prefer to be. I’m not that educated on the topic. But at some point, India will have to choose between buying oil/gas from Russia and being backed by the west against China. India is set for exponential growth if they play their cards right. I’m sure someone more educated would be able to extrapolate more fluently what I’m trying to say

Most countries are involved in arms sales for profit. Iran is still a sovereign nation.

Accusing one country of international war crimes when you and your allies are doing the same thing is tired. Let's just hope Iran and Russia don't start any "shock and awe" offensives any time soon.
