Have you seen the news about Israel attacking Egypt?
Me neither, because Egypt has not been attacking Israel.
100% of the countries that do not attack Israel are not attacked by Israel.

@soonerhokie @stats_feed Mexico had to renovate a couple stadiums i believe. Pretty sure US only had to pay for grass.
English
@stats_feed I’m assuming some of the costs are in building stadiums? Don’t know if that is correct or not. Don’t know if any stadiums were built with the WC in mind for North America.
More asking than stating facts here.

This really isn’t the app to get super personal, but I had a bf years ago and due to personal reasons we were celibate. It was really REALLY hard for him. I thought surely he would leave me. One time, I tried to force myself (because I loved him and wanted to make him happy). At first, he was into it, but then he could see it wasn’t what I wanted and I was uncomfortable. So he stopped. I started crying. I thought maybe it’s better to breakup. Better for him and me.

The most romantic thing a man can express to a woman is that even if she never has sex with him again, he wants to be with her forever. Because his love for her as a person transcends any animal urge. This is even more romantic if he has a high sex drive.

Posturing is easy. Facts are more challenging.
The US shut down Israel's Lavi fighter program for two very simple reasons:
1. It was an extraordinarily expensive program and the US was expected to pay for it.
2. It relied on key US components and technologies. It literally couldn't taxi out of a hangar without these US inputs. Yet it would have directly competed with US aircraft, inflicting yet further losses on the US economy.
Short version: The US shut down the Lavi because it was basically a US program.
Next time also have the integrity to tell your readers how Israel sold key technologies involved in the cancelled Lavi program, including US technologies, to China.
For further details see Dov Zakheim, Flight of The Lavi (1996). Zakheim was a senior Pentagon official during the Reagan administration tasked with investigating this program and played a key role in shutting it down.

JD Vance likes to threaten Israel by pointing out how much of our weapons come from the US, but he completely ignores history. This dependency was manufactured by Washington. What does he want us to do, buy our jets from China? Or maybe he wants Israel to build its own? Let's remind him that back in the 1980s, Israel was developing the Lavi, a fighter jet that would easily be one of the best in the world today. It was the US that pressured and forced Israel to cancel the project because American defense contractors didn't want the competition. You can't force us to shut down our independent fighter jet program to protect US corporate profits, and then turn around and complain that we rely on US jets. If Israel has to fully decouple and build its own platforms again, we can. But don't pretend this dependency wasn't your choice.

Where is the white privilege everyone talks about??
My 22-year-old son now wants to attend Aviation Mechanic School. It costs $40,000. They do not accept student aid. The only grants are these: 332 Heritage Foundation, Black Pilots of America, Latino Pilot Association, National Gay Pilot Association, Organization of Black Professionals, Professional Asian Pilots, Women in Aviation.
So how is an average young white straight male supposed to go without me co-signing a full loan? 🤦♀️

@The_Real_Fly The Israelis rather uncooperatively insist on defending their people.

VANCE: “We were right on the cusp of a major breakthrough… and then there’s a big explosion in a civilian area in Beirut, killing people who have nothing to do with Hezbollah.
That’s not acceptable.”

@The_Real_Fly Ok bro so do something then you’re the Vice President of the US 😭😭

@DVanLangenhove The amount of graffiti all over Europe was shocking to me, if I mentioned it locals acted like they never even noticed it before
English
As a local, you get desensitised to the scene over time. But we should never accept that this is what Belgium’s largest international train station looks like.
Not to mention the stench of piss, the robbers and the junkies surrounding it.
English
@AnkerBuchter @DVanLangenhove @DanBoomUK Most likely they are literally not allowed to deal with threats like that. They're probably told to call police.
English
@DVanLangenhove @DanBoomUK Just look at the two male security officers. One tries to appease, one runs away. Maybe tries to call someone. To fully grown guards who themselves obviously need someone to guard them. Who hires people like these?
