Name can’t be blank

Born in 1832, Jonathan the tortoise turned 193 today. Yes… 193. This dude is literally the oldest land animal alive. He survived 2 world wars, outlived 40 U.S. presidents, 8 British monarchs, and probably watched more drama on Earth than all of us combined. He can’t see and smell anymore, but he still recognizes his caretakers just by voice and touch like a wise old gangster. Think about this: Jonathan was alive before the lightbulb existed… and there is a high chance he might still be here AFTER some of us are gone. Happy birthday legend... keep confusing time, history, and all of us… and may you live many more years!

Why is it Curaçao and Haiti’s fault that Italy can’t beat Bosnia & Herzegovina and Denmark can’t beat Belarus

@edwin_mbosso Why?

After Gikomba, all kikuyus living in Elderot should be evicted too

@alpha_dweeb @Winter_Six Yes their weapons are top notch but they sometimes force their allies to buy them by threatening them with sanctions if they go astray.

@Winter_Six @SamTheSeed I hope it goes well. But, as Russia learned, no matter how well an equipment is built, it must still be effective in theater. The world buys from the US because they make the best. China builds a lot too, but on field it's proven to not be that competitive.

NATO will look strange post midterms.

@Winter_Six @somspouvoir It's African countries that import everything,even bullets.

@SamTheSeed @somspouvoir We'll see.

@Winter_Six @alpha_dweeb 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂,I think France doesn't import fighter jets.They can rely on it.

@SamTheSeed @alpha_dweeb Yah they weren't, but buying US aircraft is way cheaper than putting in the long-term investments in the backend to make your own while providing free everything except blowjobs to your citizens.

@Winter_Six @somspouvoir I think overreliance on MRE of weapons killed their base.But as I said,they now have a wake up call.

@SamTheSeed @somspouvoir Yes, they have a base. However without funding to increase production at scale plus energy to back it up and of course R&D, it'll take years if not decades. Look at Turkey doing what you're saying. It's proving horribly difficult and they're not a small power.

Mkieka emotions kando, mtakubali Gikomba needs change.. Same applies to Hawkers, Boda boda and Matatus in CBD. Get them all out...

@Winter_Six @alpha_dweeb Funding is headache tbh.But not like they were getting those weapons for free

@SamTheSeed @alpha_dweeb My boss, they don't have the meat 😭 What, the UK will cut NHS funding to build new aircraft carriers? Scale needs funding and energy, two things they lack. It's why they're having to pool together to build FCAS (not FACS as I previously stated). They don't have it.

@Winter_Six @somspouvoir My point was,they've a base.They're not starting from scratch

@SamTheSeed @somspouvoir These things are great but they're both 4.5 gen aircraft, not true 5th gen fighters. Last year India/Pakistan displayed how vulnerable 4.5 gen is in a contested airspace. The European 5th gen fighter is the F-35. They cannot do what you're asking, sir.

@alpha_dweeb @Winter_Six They can scale up,not that they're facing an imminent threat.And what do you mean by 'scales to support their armies''?.Trump is a welcome wake up call to EU

@SamTheSeed @Winter_Six Scale. Scale matters. It's not a matter of choice that makes them buy American equipment. Besides being ahead in tech, they do not have the scale to support their armies.

@alpha_dweeb @Winter_Six EU already has some sort of defense industry. It manufactures jets,helis,space system,air defence systems,tanks etc.They've a base to sit on

@SamTheSeed @Winter_Six Do people no understand how China came to dominate manufacturing? Europe, like the US, destroyed its manufacturing base. Even worse for Europe, the whole green energy craze led them to destroy their energy too. A defense industry needs a strong manufacturing base.

@Winter_Six @alpha_dweeb Where?

@SamTheSeed @alpha_dweeb Italy has already walked things back lol

@Winter_Six @somspouvoir EU have the tech and know how,France has rafales,there are typhoons too.They can start from there.They're not starting from scratch. US was initially cause of the USSR which no longer exist.This war has really pissed off very many countries. It's a stupid war

@SamTheSeed @somspouvoir It can't work lol they can't even do their 6th gen fighter thing properly (FACS). There's a reason the US is in there.

@somspouvoir @Winter_Six Replace NATO with an EU version of NATO. It can work for them I believe.People forget the US is the only NATO country to ever invoke article 5.

@Winter_Six Italy too joined in, why are they doing this? Cause they’re fully aware the U.S. is the heaviest lifter financially and has more weapons and manpower to keep NATO going. Idg, what’s in it for them or am I missing something? Are they trying to say they’re not pushovers?

@alpha_dweeb @Winter_Six I think the opposite is true,the odds favouring the EU.They can focus on European defence and defence industry without being forced to buy overpriced arms.They'll gain the ''independence'' they've been yearning for. It's a lesson too,you can't just start wars when you feel like.

@Winter_Six They think another Obama will be elected that will go on an apology tour after Trump. So, for now, they're dead set on humbling America. Risky gamble, because I think the odds favor America sidelining them and forming new alliances.

I know I'll get cooked but nganya culture is stupid What is so fascinating about risking people's lives including your own? If a leader promised to get rid of all this nonsense I'd vote for them in a heartbeat

@anj_116_ That's it!Either on our way to Singapore or Nigeria with the way to Nigeria being the leading candidate.

We can either be on the path to total recovery economically and socially or be on the road to total anarchy and economic collapse. Both depend on who we elect in 2027.

@Educatedfool__ People learn and improve over time.Some concepts that were difficult at bachelor's level become easier at Msc level or out in the field and I'm talking from experience.

I have zero respect for university lecturers who scored second class (Lower division) in their areas of specialization at Bachelors level....... Bro, you are teaching something yourself didn't understand and failed......
