And he laid out his plans.
1) Increase French socialist policies, including nationalization of more operations.

Oppose the USA.

Force Europe to institute a permanent total boycott against Israel in support of the Palestinians.

So, let me ask you some questions.

Should the US consider France an ally?

In the 1950s, Cuba was a thriving nation, with a fast-growing economy—an economy that exported food, from beef to fruits and sugar. Yes, the regime that controlled Cuba then was bad—very bad.
1) And yes, the Castro regime reforms did some good in areas of education and medical care, but in every other area of governmental rule, Cuba was a gross failure, living on subsidies from the Soviet Union and more recently from Venezuela.

This seems to have become a political issue for some in the State of Israel. Should the Israeli state be a Jewish state or a state of all its residents, and why cannot it be both?
1) Consider the following.

Russia. Russian ethnics are barely a bit more than half the population of Russia.

France. 13% of the French population are Muslims, people who come from a North African society.

Or maybe it is an intentional effort to forget the facts and embellish what seems to give a sense of safety that realistically was never there.

It is now six years that Benjamin Netanyahu has been subject to politically motivated persecution in the form of slanderous accusations formed into legal terms.

Three things are in the Constitution of the USA dealing with voting:

1. Only citizens of the USA can vote in federal elections.

3. All voting for federal offices must comply with federal law regarding age qualification, non-discrimination, etc., as covered by the Supremacy Clause of the Constitution.

Reposting this after receiving a lot of questions from both Israelis and Diaspora Jews. It seems there are many people who simply do not understand the issue. So, here it goes.
1) The real question that has never been fully answered in Israel is what the role of the High Court should be in a Jewish and democratic republic, which the State of Israel was intended to be.

Here's my answer.

I will never ask for an apology from Guy Peleg.

It’s a simple story of a little red hen who decided to plant seeds, grow corn, harvest corn, and at each stage she asks for help from the other farm animals.

1) @AutonomousAllie @josh_hammer @DailyMail He suggests her behavior is self-demeaning and hints that it may relate to Tucker Carlson and potential 2028 political ambitions. He frames her shift in tone and focus as unbecoming, potentially motivated by positioning herself in the post-Trump conservative landscape,

Despite Megyn Kelly's sole focus on Miriam Adelson being a Jewish American, she has put her money where her mouth is to support American conservative values which is something Megyn Kelly has not.
1) Megyn is not even a conservative. She merely jumped on the Trump train for audience after she was fired from mainstream media networks and it was Ben Shapiro who invited her to Daily Wire and showed her how she could create a studio like theirs for herself.
