I need at least 4.5 to wake me up from my nap.

Maybe I should post this in the '(Funny) Thought of the Day' thread... :D

Incompetent Russian Pilots...

Their equipment is also said to be sub-par.
With 90% to 95% of the world's countries strongly condemning Russia's invasion of Ukraine, one would think that Russia would be defeated rather rapidly in any type of larger scale global war.
(Of course, that changes if China decides to partner up with them...)

Needless to say, the infrastructure there is not built to withstand such a quake. Get ready for the 1000's of dead. :(

The Guardian insists that the French are protesting President Macron's rise in the pension age from 62 to 64, achieved through a maneuver that avoided a parliamentary vote.

They are not. They are protesting nationwide to contest Macron's cuts to their already-earned pensions. And what that means for other benefits, and the process through which government changes them, and for whose benefit.

Simple policy promise: continue the expansion into Palestine. And the other policies against that population.

It seems that they didn't read the fine print then.

He got less than 24% of the vote. Israel has had 5 elections in 4 years, and there is no consensus for the direction of the country.
