We had a relatively very peaceful 70 years thanks to American dominance, projection of power, and foreign policy. Now we are seeing what happens when America begins to retract. It only gets worse...

I would say to Isreal to kick all the ass they deem fit. They know better than I what to do. Their track record looks like they know what they are doing.

This is why they aren't worth much. Not because they need new fuel tanks and lines, but because two of them were put away in the same town. Classic case of a "Collector Edition" being way over...

Not true. Every piece of metal under the car has surface rust. 25:14-25:57 is the underside of the car. If you think that's "completely rotted out," well, its not.
