As I said, I know he is just one sample, but there are thousands of more average ones as well. He does prove he can achieve those peak physical levels and achievements in a totally plant-based diet, he lacks nothing. The thing is, the more it's studied scientifically and seriously, the better results vegans get short and long-term compared to any other diet groups. It's the opposite of what you said.

Okay, sarcasm off. This man has been repeatedly the world champion in this brutal fighting variant. When the point being made is that a vegan diet is not good, sufficient, or healthy, and vegans are painted as weak or worse, but then you got this guy kicking ass like that, well, I'm gonna bring him up to the conversation, because he very well debunks those erroneous claims and accusations pointed at vegans. Of course, there are thousands of more average vegans that prove the point as well, like maybe you, but this one is something else, man.

Vegans are weak, their diet is insufficient, and can't be healthy. For example, there's this vegan soyboy called Dave Leduc who gets his ass kicked every time he gets on a ring in what's considered one of the most violent martial art types in the world.

Wow, that was fast. It appears that the Assad regime was militarily very weak, too dependent on foreign forces that did not react fast, probably because they couldn't. The dictator and his family evacuated, probably never to return. This is a colossal NATO victory and a game-changer in the region. What happens next is a good question. The participants will ask for their piece of the pie. Israel will be getting the Golan Heights, as a Western actor, it's gonna ask for it, and get it. The line between Iran and Lebanon is closed. Hezbollah is strong right now, but without this line, its capability in the long run may be compromised. Turkey will ask for control in the North, or the North itself. The Northeast is Kurdish, and Turks hate Kurds, and Kurds hate Turks, so I don't anticipate much peace in the region. The USA will get the oil and steal all the money in Syria and put it in New York, as they did with Iraq. Iran and Russia will be mad, but there's nothing they can do now. The Jihadists are heavily armed now, can NATO have them under control? I don't know. It's gonna be ugly if not. Before a democracy is installed, if it is, with the Western-approved options-puppets given to the people, a lot of heads may be chopped off. I'm just making some predictions, so time will tell.

The first that comes to mind, someone who lost a loved one for lack of insurance did this. Could be, people are not sad about this, if you're gonna be the head of these kind of corporate practices that end up causing so many avoidable deaths, people are going to hate you. That's an understandable human reaction. Another investigation course could be that a rival of his on the corporate ladder ordered this, and diverted the investigation by writing those words in the bullet. I'm gonna be honest, my condolences are for those who have lost loved ones for the lack of insurance or the insurance not covering treatments even after having paid religiously for years. It's out of hand, this doesn't need to be this way. This guy can rot in Hell.

I think they overdid it a bit by writing the pronouns. Anyway, all this is not really a joke. The NATO alliance is scoring a goal, they found a weak spot, and they took it. I'm not gonna blame the Syrians who oppose a dictator, but I'll say that these Jihadists look even worse. It reminds a bit of Afghanistan, with many differences, but didn't go well in the long run. Not all Syrians are happy about these events, but they don't have much choice. Whoever wins, you gotta abide, because they point guns at you. If you are lucky, the side you prefer wins. I link a Syrian journalist. Edit: Okay, I see the pronouns were fake... Good one!

DNA tests are strictly regulated in Israel, the only way you can get them is through court orders. So you cannot get a private test kit to research your own DNA. Although, that's not the point. But claiming that so many Europeans had an ancestral claim to this land, knowing so many things can have happened in between, including people converting to Judaism, cheating parents at any point in your lineage, or whatever, is very flawed. Claiming it over the Indigenous people of that land, who were indeed Semites, most of them converted to Islam at some point in the past, but they are much more likely to have an ancestral relation to the people living in that piece of land 2000 years ago than so many Europeans and Russians coming in the last decades. They are being genocided by these colonizers, it's crazy.

The next target: Homs. Capturing is one thing, and not a minor one, but maintaining it is another, which is tougher. I think things will get messy, with many foreign actors. This is more than a civil war, indeed, which partly it is, but it's also part of a more global clash we are living in, most unfortunately for the ones suffering it firsthand. Combined with other currently ongoing conflicts in the region. Syria is in the way between Iran and Lebanon, so Israel is very interested in cutting this and changing the regime that permits it. Turkey has its feuds, claims, and interests on its border and beyond, has unequivocally shown where it stands and with whom. These gains couldn't have happened without Turkey's push. Russia is minding its own problems in Ukraine, successfully, but has quite on its plate yet. But I don't see them staying totally in the margins. Iran is probably going to aid Assad's regime too, as an ally, and for its own interest. The USA is behind too, couldn't be other way, as a support for Israel, and opposition to Iran and Russia, and the smell of oil, of course. All big players, a fucking mess.

Alright, it looked like a civil war to me, but it may not be the best wording. Is it only Iranian bases? Doesn't a part of the Syrian population support Bashar Al Assad, at least in red parts in the South? What about the Kurds?

A civil war. There's Bashar Al Assad's regime, but he's lost the North. There are the Kurds there, which the Turkish hate, so I'm not sure if that alliance has a bright future. Russia and the US have been pushing their interests, as well as Iran, and I guess Israel, who disputes the Golan Heights in the South at least. Russia has its hands full now, which may have been a factor in turning the tables. All seems quite messy from the outside, we'll see.

@BlueOak The Ruble is not collapsing. It's been doing well since it recovered from the sanctions which didn't work, its general trend is good. Here I attach two graphs, the first one is for five years, we can clearly see there was a huge pump and collapse when the war started in February and March 2022, but then it recovered to a better level than what it was before. I also attached the one-month one, to see if there is a collapse right now, but there is not, there is an up-and-down, but the value is better now than at the beginning of the last month, despite the slope. We'll see if there's a collapse, but right now, there is not. You are being fed propaganda, which you spread too.

You are such a propagandist, I just fact-checked some of your claims, the Ruble is not collapsing, it's quite higher than in 2021. It totally recovered from the high loss it had in the first weeks of the war when the sanctions started, and it's still doing fine. The Russian economy is fine, they changed their trade partners to Asia, and they got rid of the money escape they had been suffering from many of their oligarcs as a bonus. They sell their gas well, instead of to Europe, to other countries. It's Europe the one more affected by energy prices thanks to the US's kind actions toward the Nord Stream. Bobby is right, Ukraine didn't have nukes, the USSR had them, they happened to be on that part of the Soviet Union. Once the USSR separated into different countries, obviously the location of such weapons had to be rethought, and it was. It was also agreed that NATO wouldn't grow to the East, which has been broken over and over, when Russia was too weak to respond. This time Russia wasn't that weak, so they said no, also because they have a bigger cultural connection to Ukraine. They tried the diplomatic ways of Minsk, but NATO was building a defacto army in front of their noses, like saying: so what are you gonna do to prevent this? Attack? Well, we got the answer, Putin wasn't bluffing. He doesn't want to escalate a war that is winning on the battlefield, but if it gets to higher levels, won't just sit and look. This is Biden's biggest loss, and now that he's done, he is dropping his last presents, but the danger of this game shouldn't be assumable. Stupid old man, he's risking a nuclear war. North Koreans have not fought in Ukraine yet. If any country wants to send its troops to either side of the conflict, they've better be ready to face the consequences. NATO is playing in the grey areas, the long-range weapons indeed need NATO help to target Russian objectives, and that's why Russia considers that a direct NATO incursion. However, they are still winning on the battlefield, as said, week by week they take more land. Their losses are big, it's a war, but they have more than enough manpower to continue the war against a much smaller country. Ukraine is the one that has problems with that, losing many more men than Russians at this point, that's why they have no chance. Ukranian civilian men know that, they don't want to die, and they prefer to concede the Eastern territories if asked. Zelensky and Western warmongers have made the decision for them though, Zelensky whose legal term ended months ago.

From the Bad Hasbara podcast, an interesting interview with two Israeli antizionist guys, their thoughts, and experiences. They both acknowledge that land as Palestine, and Zionism as something that happened in that land, so there's some identity question they face. They're open to calling themselves Palestinians, as people born there, and willing to build bridges for peaceful coexistence between different cultures or creeds, as it was before. They are secular, which at some point in the interview brings up the circumcision issue, which everyone does, no matter religious or secular. In Christian countries, secular people don't bring their babies to put water on their heads, but Israelis bring their babies to chop a piece of their penis skin. Something to think about at least, they call this a bit cultish as a society. Muslims also practice circumcision, so that's one of the few common grounds. Funny!

Another witness of the deliberate and reiterated murdering of Palestinian civilians including women and children by the Israeli terrorist and genocidal state.
