To Vice President Vance And Elon Musk
US Vice President J.D. Vance blasted the leaders of European democracies at their recent meeting in Munich (is that the place famous for colluding with a false peace with Hitler?) because they were putting controls on social media, thereby undermining democracy.
Democracy, whether the classical Greece or the Christian variety,...

A USA voter has sent me a link to a mass movement that claims to be the incoming 'Christian' ideology: https://www.bing.com/search?q=POLITICS+The+Army+of+God+Comes+Out+of+the+Shadows+Tens+of+millions+of+American+Christians+are+embracing+a+charismatic+movement+known+as+the+New+Apostolic+Reformation%2C+which+seeks+to+destroy+the+secular+state.+By+Stephanie+McCrummen&cvid=9dc952c4b10940148421dc72da553d8e&gs_lcrp=EgRlZGdlKgYIABBFGDkyBggAEEUYOdIBCDM2NzZqMGo0qAIIsAIB&FORM=ANAB01&PC=SCO

Friends, movements and governments take different sides in the Israeli/US war against Arab uprisings.
Many campaign for justice. Justice has been denied the Palestinians for over 70 years. A former Vicar of Nazareth told me how Israeli forces gunned him and countless others out of their homes. ...
