Russia’s Pantsir air-defense vehicle sucked! It couldn’t track and hit drones well, and was easy to take out with sensors and weapons all in one vehicle.

The US is focusing on long-range stealth bombers to take out sensors and a mass of cheaper weapons to take out attackers.

The mass murder, rape, and digitally advertising their violence of the October 7th attack, wasn’t fighters getting out of hand, it was part of Hamas’s plan to commit horrible atrocities and show those atrocities to the world. They then ran back to Gaza and hid under and amongst civilians, with the plan of pretending that Israel’s attempt to kill these human shield wielding terrorists was genocide.

Is Turkey a regional power threat to Israel? Turkey has been working against Israel’s interests and its leader has rhetorically demonized the Jewish state.

Rent control has bad effects, but politically, when a city gentrifies, this can cause rents to raise so fast as to effectively be an eviction. Gentrification is good for creating flourishing urban areas, but it is unfair to the tenants already living there and could lead to political demands to stop the gentrification.
A rent control that slows the raising of rents, gives the current tenants more time until they can’t afford rent, and gives them more time to make more money, while allowing inflation-based rent raises and letting landlords charge market prices to new tenants…may be a net good.
Multi-year rent freezes that allow no rent increases are bad.

Two reasons the four gospels were chosen were 1) they were older so they had more time to spread and become more well-known. 2) when the canon was being put together, these four could be better used to argue what the Orthodox believed compared to adding others or removing some of these.

China’s covert ops are penetrating many countries, including the United States. Fifty percent of US counterspy efforts are against China. China likes to threaten Chinese living in the US to help their operations, if they don’t obey, the CCP will harm their family members still in China.

The CCP is threatened by American military power, but it’s most threatened by free expression and free peoples and that the Chinese people will demand more freedom and say in government, and the CCP fears what this will mean for their control of the country.
