So what's the next step. We all know Bibi is a piece of shyt liar so he'll be up to something and watch they gonna cry to Trump to rebuild Tel Aviv with our tax dollars :smh:
Ramp up the killing innocent Gazans and continue to break the ceasefire in Lebanon while bombing Yemen.

He may have failed in Iran but he has 3 other war crimes to keep him in power

You take any of the top 20-30 countries and you would barely find anything different in living standards.

US at #17 here List of countries by Human Development Index - Wikipedia .

For instance in Japan it’s far safer and healthy than America, but they also have to work longer hours, earn far less and have smaller houses and less amenities. The margins are razor thin.

japan has just undergone 30+ years of stagflation. not a good example.

Our educational scores rank higher than countries like Germany and France. It’s not like we are catching the Asian countries :russ:

there is a reason for that. in germany research is not concentrated at unis like in the US. league tables take research at unis into account.

see the max planck institute.

Plus our universities are the best in the world. The University of Wisconsin would literally be the best university in like 99% of countries.

ballacks straight from a US university education :mjlol::hubie:

do you guys ever read? own a passport?

you don't need to guess.

uni of wisconsin is #72 in the world


that is behind unis from the following countries

UK
France
Germany
China
Singapore
Canada
Australia
Netherlands
Switzerland
Denmark
Hong Kong
Belgium
Sweden

(And some research institutes like Max Planck).

Further Oxford is #4 and Cambridge #5 which actually are ahead of 99% of US unis :ufdup:.



We also have the most immigrants and most ethnically diverse country in the world which presents its own challenges.

nope. wikipedia says uganda but even on a racial basis (not ethnicity) hong kong and singapore most be above the US. switzerland too.




Hell why do we have to defund our military, why not take away that 3.5 billion dollars keeping your family alive :skip:

I don't think you know how rich places like switzerland and norway are.

switzerland at #3, norway aat #6 .. US at #7

"I don't want it": Trump says US is not seeking regime change in Iran​

From CNN's Alejandra Jaramillo
President Donald Trump said today that he does not want a regime change in Iran because he does not want to see “chaos.”

Asked to clarify a social media post from over the weekend where he floated the possibility of regime change, Trump told reporters on Air Force One: “No, if there was, there was, but no I don’t want it. I’d like to see everything calm down as quickly as possible.”

“Regime change takes chaos, and ideally we don’t want to see so much chaos,” the president added. “You know, the Iranians are very good traders, very good business people, and they’ve got a lot of oil. They should be fine. They should be able to rebuild and do a good job. They’re never going to have nuclear but other than that, they should do a great job.”

Trump had raised the possibility of a change in leadership in Iran after the US struck three Iranian nuclear facilities over the weekend.

“It’s not politically correct to use the term, ‘Regime Change,’ but if the current Iranian Regime is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN, why wouldn’t there be a Regime change??? MIGA!!!” Trump wrote on Truth Social on Sunday.

A European national was arrested by Iranian authorities in the southern Iranian province of Hormozgan, reports Iran’s Fars news agency.
The person was accused of “spying on sensitive and military areas”, according to the report.
Since the outbreak of conflict with Israel, Iran has arrested dozens of people and executed several accused of spying for Israel.
Earlier today, Iranian state media reported that six more people were arrested in the western Hamadan province for allegedly spying for Israel’s Mossad.
