    It is Netanyahu’s war with American taxpayers’ money and the blood of US soldiers. For how long will the American people remain hostages to the Israelis and Zionists?

    The most obvious conclusion is that trump doesn’t mind at all the Hormuz situation
    The US is selling a lot of hydrocarbons, a lot more than before the war

    The war in Ukraine will end when Putin is out of power, which will probably require his death.
