@Zeev81309559 Bullshit. When you discuss with people that think Israel shouldn't exist for whatever reason, their arguments over any issue are heavily biased, will believe anything bad, it's beyond naive. The enemy don't stop to ask your opinion, before shooting.

@The_Schlemiel That's ... what i wrote. Up there. In the post you replied to.

Canada imported a LOT of European immigrants after WWII who had regressive ideas on Jews. But it was made very clear to them that the price of admission to Canada was taking these views to the grave. The modern-day immigrant from the Islamic world, by contrast, encounters whole university departments endorsing every single Jew-hating grievance fantasy they can imagine.

@CostaLefty65147 @Defence_blog Its radius is 1km/0.6 mile, it is obviously a dedicated weapon.

@Defence_blog As impressive as this is, it only solves part of the problem. The done has to be detected and tracked.

A new laser weapon can shoot down a drone in under 2 seconds — and uses less power than most military systems by far. Israeli firm Esh-Tech says it's cheap enough to put on every vehicle, not just a few bases.

@SpencerGuard Never enough. Best should be to find ways to eliminate the launchers, obviously.

U.S. Army Requests 857 THAAD Air Defense Interceptors in Major Indo-Pacific Missile Defense Expansion."
armyrecognition.com/news/army-news…
The proposed purchase of 857 interceptors, therefore, represents not only replenishment of existing stocks but also a substantial increase in the Army's capacity to sustain missile defense operations during prolonged crises or major conflicts.
English

@Project2Program @SpencerGuard I guess the sum of several requests.
English

@SpencerGuard 857 is a very precise value. Not a rounded planning number, like 850, but a prime number. Curious what threat models or operational assumptions drove that figure.
Thanks, @SpencerGuard.

@ragipsoylu @Doranimated There are no different borders since they where established in 1948 by the Declaration of Independence. And before that by the Leage of Nations 1922. The borders of mandatory Palestine.

یک منبع آگاه از روند مذاکرات به ایراناینترنشنال گفت سفر قالیباف به قطر به شکستی دیپلماتیک منجر شد و با وجود درخواست تهران برای آزادسازی فوری و بیقید و شرط ۱۲ میلیارد دلار به صورت نقدی همزمان با امضای یک یادداشت تفاهم اولیه با آمریکا، مقامهای قطری این درخواست را رد کردند.
به گفته این منبع، مقامهای قطری تنها با آزادسازی نیمی از این مبلغ تحت محدودیتهای سختگیرانه موافقت کردند.
بر اساس گفتههای یک منبع نزدیک به یک مقام قطری حاضر در این گفتوگوها، دوحه از انتقال مستقیم یا نقدی این منابع به ایران خودداری کرده است. در عوض، این پول تنها به صورت اعتبار در اختیار تهران قرار میگیرد تا کالاها و محصولات اساسی را مستقیما از قطر خریداری کند.
این محدودیت در شرایطی اعمال شده که آمریکا به شدت با اعطای دسترسی مستقیم و بدون محدودیت جمهوری اسلامی به داراییهای نقدی مخالفت کرده است.
آمریکا ابراز نگرانی کرده است که تزریق مستقیم پول نقد میتواند برای تهران فضای تنفسی اقتصادی حیاتی ایجاد کند و به آن اجازه دهد حقوقهای معوقه بخش عمومی را پرداخت کرده و در دورهای از تنش شدید منطقهای، تجهیزات نظامی را از کشورهای دیگر تامین کند.

I remember discussions at work in the early 2000s with libs. I told them without manufacturing the county would fall. They said we would be the world’s mall. And China would make everything. Literally they said that. And believed it. Still do probably . Supposedly smart people. One was phi beta kappa. She also said she wasn’t very patriotic. Nothing but contempt for those people

Presidente de ARSAT durante la gestión de Fernández, lo ponen en el 22. En junio del 25 Milei lo designa titular del Orsna. En enero del 26, cuando sale Pierrini (quien lo impulsó al cargo) de la secretaría de transporte, renuncia. Ahora sigue contratado en Arsat porque es “planta permanente”
Español

Hallaron por lo menos US$650.000 y droga en el departamento del extitular de Arsat y el Orsna, Facundo Leal. Fue presidente de la empresa pública durante la gestión de Fernández y titular del organismo que controla los aeropuertos designado por Milei. Está detenido. Renunció hace cuatro meses pero sigue contratado por Arsat. Lo allanaron por otra causa y se encontraron con esta sorpresa.

@Domitoro @_RGArmstrong @histories_arch Boorish extreme Anglocentricity. Americans keep saying Spanish is easy to learn but it's hard to find an English book with a line of Spanish in it which is not mistaken.

@_RGArmstrong @histories_arch When I watched the American movies in 80-s, I always wondered how in the country where are living thousands of Russian speaking immigrants they do Russian language so bad. Same with this message. It’s in such broken Russian , that no Russian would ever say it :)

"Elektronika 5" digital watch, USSR, 1980....
The Elektronika series of digital watches became one of the Soviet Union’s most widespread consumer electronics products during the late 1970s and 1980s. Produced by state-run factories across the USSR, models such as the Elektronika 5 reflected Soviet efforts to compete with the rapidly growing Japanese digital watch industry led by Casio, Seiko, and Citizen.
Most Elektronika watches used LCD displays and included features such as alarms, stopwatches, calendars, backlighting, and electronic melodies. Some models even incorporated simple programmable functions. Despite lagging behind Western and Japanese miniaturization technology, Soviet watches were known for durability and relatively low cost within the Eastern Bloc.
By the 1980s, digital watches had become highly desirable across the Soviet Union, where imported electronics were scarce and often prohibitively expensive. Soviet factories produced millions of electronic watches annually during the decade.
The Soviet electronics sector employed an estimated 3 million workers by the mid-1980s, yet the USSR still imported significant amounts of semiconductor technology because it struggled to match Western microchip production capabilities.

How many Roman cities survived the Dark Ages collapse?
Comparing a database of 405 Roman cities to a database of medieval cities, we can see that around 33 Roman cities survived as cities into the 8th century.
The rest — around 372 (92%!) — were destroyed or depopulated to become small towns or settlements.

This small limestone tablet, barely the size of your hand, may be the oldest piece of Hebrew writing ever discovered: 🪨✍️
Found at Tel Gezer in 1908, the Gezer Calendar dates to the 10th century BCE — the era of King Solomon. It lists the agricultural seasons of ancient Israel in seven simple lines: harvest, planting, flax, barley, wheat, pruning. It reads like a farmer's almanac. But it's so much more than that.
It's proof that ordinary Israelites were literate. That Hebrew was a living, written language 3,000 years ago.
That the people of the Bible weren't legends — they were farmers, scribes, and neighbors who kept track of their seasons just like we do.
The Gezer Calendar now sits in the Istanbul Archaeological Museum, a quiet artifact that rewrites everything we assume about ancient literacy in the ancient Near East.

@PalmerLuckey @SecWar It’s clear that USA is a global mercenary force for special interests.
Tax payers fund it and profits are privatized.
Sad, since start of century, we had so much potential to improve humanity.
English

Many people don't understand the scale @SecWar is demanding.
The United States has built less than 40,000 cruise missiles, ever, since the Army asked the Dayton-Wright Company to manufacture an Aerial Torpedo in 1917. The more time passes, the fewer we make and the more they cost.
Leaders like DepSecWar Feinberg and @USWREMichael are actually responding to foreign threats and giving clear demand signal that is bringing billions of dollars of private capital into solving this problem. Now America will manufacture more cruise missiles in the next three years than the last 30 years combined, at a fraction of the cost.
We are in the middle of hiring for Barracuda production at Arsenal-1 starting later this year, please hit us up if this mission is one you can be passionate about.
