The return of Yeshua (Jesus) will happen in Jerusalem according to Bible prophecy, at a time when the Jewish state is reborn and the Jewish people are once again living in the land after a long period of exile. Though he is coming for the good of all Humankind, it is literally impossible to believe in the second coming of Messiah without a Jewish state and Jewish Jerusalem and Jewish people unto whom to return.
@alexbrasky Or maybe the traditional franchises have failed their fanbases and the league by being shit. You need new teams to show the old ones that "this is how it's always been done" is a poor management strategy
The NHL completely ruined the league with expansion teams
Hurricanes and Golden Knights: two teams whose history began in 1997 and 2017 have made 6 Stanley Cup Finals with 2 wins between them and another coming this year
The league has failed its traditional franchises
Europe is not mentally prepared for a major war, even though it is happening right on its doorstep, says former NATO Secretary-General Stoltenberg
“We have seen that war is possible even in our immediate neighbourhood. But Europe is not mentally prepared for this — and that is somewhat dangerous,” he noted.
Stoltenberg also described NATO’s current situation as more complex than it was in 2024, when he left office. According to him, the situation has deteriorated, and he has not become more optimistic. At the same time, he emphasised that the alliance’s main task is to keep North America and Europe together, although “there are limits to what we have to accept”.
@davidharsanyi What if we walk away and Iran maintains control of the strait then rapidly enriches their uranium to 90%? They’ll just inflict max economic pain until they get concessions
Walking away from Iran without any agreement would be preferable to another Barack Obama-esque deal, which seems to be where we’re headed. A bad deal would not only give mullahs what they want but restrain Israel and the Gulf States from acting.
@millsklm@ztisdale Imagine waking up and you can't afford a single thing to get on with life. Imagine every 30 year old still living at home because they can't afford a house. Imagine paying taxes your whole life and when we get attacked that we have no military to protect us.
If Canada joins the USA we can finally ditch the British Monarchy.
We get U.S. currency and a booming economy.
We get the U.S. Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
We ditch multiculturalism (very important).
English is the only official language.
What's not to love?

I do not know what China phobia is.
I don’t fear China.
I fear our inability to grasp the full scale of the threat posed by the PRC to global peace & security, freedom & democracy, economic security, & to people’s very livelihoods.
@JaniKorhonen17@Pesakauha@JuhaRistamaki Sitähän tämä suomen touhu on. Hetken lämmittää mieltä kun luulee kostavansa venäläisille, mutta pitkässä juoksussa tuhotaan omaa taloutta.
Venäläisturismi Schengen-alueelle on nyt suurempaa kuin ennen Venäjän täysimittaista hyökkäystä Ukrainaan tai suurempaa kuin ensimmäisenä kokonaisena hyökkäysvuotena.

Those who aim to "avoid escalation" must now admit that escalation is not being avoided. Escalation is being allowed, and encouraged. If we are "standing with Ukraine" — we shouldn't be standing on a huge pile of frozen Russian assets that could be used to save Ukrainian lives.
@DavidLimbaugh Jesus was jewish. He was against the jewish ways and was crucified for that, by the jewish people. In todays world he would be labelled an anti-semite. If you think christians are on on the same side as the jewish, you are a useful idiot.
It's hard for me to wrap my mind around this -- that certain professing Christians are antisemitic despite Jesus himself being Jewish. That's mind-blowing. And it requires me to call it out, even against the specious claim that in doing so I'm attacking my own. They're not mine.
@brorhjalmar Sinä taidat haluta hyväksyä siionistisen suur-israel projektin, jossa israel, väkivalloin, valloittaa itselleen alueita egyptiltä, jordanialta, syyrialta libanonilta ja irakilta.
Millainen olisi Suomi ilman demareita, vas.liittoa, vihreitä, yleä, hesaria, vasemmistoproffia, vasemmisto ekonomisteja, lukea, OPH:sta, verovaroin toimivia järjestöjä, liberaalifeministejä professoreja, elokapinaa, palestiinatahvoja jne. Olisi vaurautta, ahkeruutta ja yrityksiä.
La Marine nationale a arraisonné hier matin un nouveau pétrolier sous sanctions internationales en provenance de Russie : le Tagor. Notre détermination est constante et totale.
Cette intervention a été effectuée en Atlantique, en haute mer, avec le soutien de plusieurs partenaires dont le Royaume-Uni, dans le strict respect du droit de la mer.
Il est inacceptable que des bateaux contournent les sanctions internationales, violent le droit de la mer et financent la guerre que mène la Russie contre l’Ukraine depuis plus de 4 ans.
Ces navires, qui ne respectent pas les règles les plus élémentaires de navigation maritime, constituent également une menace pour l’environnement et pour la sécurité de tous.
@SebastianMEP Ainahan the voitte eu:na käydä hylkäämässä vaalituloksen ja estää epämiellyttäviä kandidaatteja osallistumasta. Se on sitä parempaa vaalivaikuttamista ja demokratiaa, mitä on jo aiemmin eu:lta nähty.
Armenia has elections coming up.
Elections that will define the country's future. Russia will likely try sway the results in its favour.
So it's important for the Armenians to go into this with their eyes wide open. Russian malign influence must be fought on every level.
Israelilla on oikeus puolustaa itseään ja kansalaisiaan. Hizbollahilla ei ole oikeutta ampua ainuttakaan rakettia Israeliin. Tätä ei ole lainkaan vaikea ymmärtää.
After every Russian escalation into a NATO country we hear leaders repeating the mantra "We stand with..."
But we could do much more than standing around.
For example — we could create a European-Ukrainian defense union. Fund it with confiscated Russian frozen assets. Close the skies in Ukraine, making Ukraine and other frontline states safer.
These things are very possible and this work could start today.
Instead, I am sadly reminded of how Britain and France “stood with” Poland in 1939 while that country was being dismembered. It was called the Phony War, because mere declarations of “support” mean very little on the ground, and do nothing to prevent real war.
Actions always speak louder than words, and usually cost much less than inaction.
