Russia has received new deadly ballistic missiles from Iran for use in Ukraine and is likely to use them, the US secretary of state, Antony Blinken, announced on Tuesday in London as he prepared to travel with the UK foreign secretary, David Lammy, to Kyiv.
The news, confirmed by the US for the first time and seen as of huge significance to the battlefield balance ahead of Ukraine’s difficult winter, led the US and Europe to impose new sanctions on Iran, so apparently slamming the door on the prospect of a rapprochement between the new reformist Iranian government and the west.
The move may also add to the pressure on the US to end its restrictions on Ukraine using British-supplied Storm Shadow missiles to strike targets deep inside Russia and not just in occupied parts of Ukraine.
When the US backs Israel no matter what. The countries Israel keeps starting shit with don’t have many other options besides Russia or China
If America stayed out of it, Israel wouldn’t be as aggressive, and their neighbors wouldn’t have to run to Russia and China.

Has no one explained to you that one of the big factors the West had in creating Israel was to create a volatile area for proxy wars instead of another war in Europe?
If you don’t know that, hardly anything else is going to make sense …
Like… Those panarab trash countries attacked Israel and lost back in 1947. Let them try again sore losers. Like… We stayed out of it since the 1990s we’ve simply sent aid and medical supplies to gaza. And they wanna invade Israel again on October 7th.
The West did not create Israel as it is that was mostly all Russia from actions in the 80s, Russian immigrants started the first major settlement where thousands from Yemen and eastern Europe immigrated to in 1882.

When Israel was founded…
The weat didn’t magically create that land, it existed and people had lived there for thousands of years …
The UN said it was now Israel and everyone who wasn’t Jewish had to leave…
And you want to start the clock immediately after that?!
How does that make any sense?
The West did not create Israel
They did…
In 1947 the UN voted to partition the region into separate Jewish and Arab states.

Everyone that moved there prior to the creation of Israel was moving to Palestine…
Did any of that help you understand?
That’s not true. No one was moving to “Palestine”. It was a somewhat dead area. As well there was never a country called Palestine. You don’t see it on any maps. From all the development in Israel brought a lot of Arab immigrants to Palestine area as well. There could have been a Palestine but they declined that partition plan and chose to lose a war. They continue to lose wars.

The UN includes Russia, China, lots of African countries, …
We could say that the UN helped to create Israel and call it a day. We could even say it was Western-led, with the UK having the Mandate and all prior to the UN taking it up. But to say that the West made it implies that the other countries who were members of the UN at the time had no involvement or responsibility here, which isn’t accurate.
Everyone that moved there prior to the creation of Israel was moving to Palestine…
Well, to the British Mandate of Palestine. Semantics, agreed.

Citation needed.
It seems to somewhat contract the info in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Aliyah - namely that Jewish immigration to what was then Ottoman Palestine started half a century before WWII, and that it was based on a desire for these folks to return to their ancient religious homelands…
Anyways, if that was indeed the desire, it can’t really have been said to be a smashing success, considering the long list presented here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_conflicts_in_Europe#21st_century (and also look above to say the 1950s - it’s quite a long list of conflicts in Europe post WWII)
