Another evidence of demise. Israel demands a 20-year military aid deal with Washington, to replace existing 10 years pact. This is not about economics but politics. Israel is seeking US assurances and faith in its survival. The planned framework shifts money away from classic US…
80k Israelis left War-torn Israel in 2023 according to stats, mostly from Tel Aviv and with high academic qualifications. Israel’s emigration surge is, at its core, a wartime phenomenon. The data shows a 78,000 residents left in 2023, compared with 56,000 in 2022 and 37,000 in…
Another proof Saudis are out of touch with reality. They believe in sci-fi and pay billions for things that dont exist. Saudi minister claims no one bought hydrogen energy from Saudi after it built the capacity. Just how no one uses the half a million hotel rooms they recently…
Saudi Minister @AdelAljubeir is at it again! 😎🔥 Grilling those who preach green energy but do nothing. Pretty sure @elonmusk would agree.
Countries that win wars pay up people to come to them. Sure that's reasonable.
Israel is in a deep manpower shortage crisis. To plug the gaps, the government is now trying to bribe new immigrants and returnees with a desperate offer of ZERO income tax for your first two years to lure Jewish professionals and tech workers back from abroad. Israel…
To world politicians who still claim to have “shared values” with Israel: @pchrgaza published the testimony of a Palestinian woman raped for days by Israeli soldiers who mocked her pain. Now, Israelis cheer soldiers filmed raping a detainee — while Israel jails the…
My understanding is Sharaa and his mates are readying for war with Israel and believe it is inevitable. Their game is to delay as much as possible which they have managed to pull successfully thus far. Israel will seek to annex the south mainly. In israelis eyes not annexing…
Syrians, even if all sanctions were fully and permanently lifted, it will take 3 to 5 years for any meaningful investment to come to the country. This is because profit seeking businesses need prolonged verifiable stability. Anyone can study the political economy of sanctions.
Statistically, Israel likelihood of waging war on Syria in 2026, is 70%. Here is the maths: Israel’s timing against new regimes This post compares three precedents, then applies the pattern to Syria under Ahmed Alsharaa. Hafez al Assad Took power 13 November 1970 War began 6…
Guess who was right again. I also confirm the US has zero plans for Syria or Lebanon. Literally going with vibes rather than a realistic plan.
EXCLUSIVE: We obtained private documents that reveal the administration’s close-held concerns about the future of Gaza. The 67 slides were presented last month during a two-day symposium for U.S. Central Command and members of the newly created Civilian Military Coordination…
Ahmed Alsharaa has to come out and tell the public that Gaza liberated Syria. fact. It is the only truth. If it was not for Gaza, Syria would have been an Abraham Accords country by now. Syrians being unrealistic and ungrateful is disgusting. Be thankful at least.
