"that will require an exercise of character that we’re not used to. That will require growing out of our childish libertarian excuse for a civic philosophy."

Great point that non Western Countries are worried about sanctions.

- Brazil on deforestation in the rain forests / climate change.

And the most recent Sec requiring public companies to give climate change impact, will make many companies go private. Plus it sends a signal to foreign owned companies, don’t go public in the US.

Further sources indicate the presence of two #France intelligence #DGSE operatives (both said to be dead) on board the crashed helicopter. This would explain #Macron's desperate pleas to #Putin as of late to organize a French-led evacuation from #Mariupol

I think the Abraham accords showed that they do not care about destroying Israel as their prime objective. What they do care about is maintaining their own power. If the Saudis think China is a better bet for that than the U.S., they will take that bet. BTW, they have never cared about the Palestinians other than using them as a bargaining chip with Israel and the U.S.
