Before the Ukraine war, India imported 0.2 percent of its oil from Russia. Today, it is closer to 40 percent. This is India scoring some cheap oil while financing the killing of Ukrainians. This cannot continue. Source:
There you have it folks — as expected, Putin once again fooled Trump into letting him continue the slaughter in Ukraine. Reporter: “You said many times, that you would know if Putin was tapping you along.

Trump's administration in a nutshell: Picture 1: Trump fires hundreds of weather service employees in February. Picture 2: Realizing how much of society depends on the weather service, Trump now hires hundreds of weather service employees.
Today I learned that an arena is called an arena because when warriers were jousting in old amphitheaters like The Colosseum, they were fighting on a floor of sand — likely because that makes cleaning up blood easier — and sand in latin is “harena”, which later became “arena”.

When Benjamin Netanyahu claims, “There is no starvation in Gaza”, it reminds me of neonazis claiming, “there was no Holocaust”. The UN repeatedly has said, that thousands of food trucks are being blocked by Israeli forces, while 2 million Palestinians are trapped inside Gaza, which has been bombed to kingdom come on orders from Netanyahu.
