so basically its kind of the brits fault that the world is stuck on a watching 108 year match between the arabs and Israel all because some guy promising land he didn't own, to people who didn't live there, on behalf of a government that wouldn't stick around to deal with the consequences.

that's crazy. the shit they don't teach in schools or colleges.

The hilarious thing is that anyone believes Palestine would exist even without Israel. There would have been a scrum among Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria for some Mediterranean real estate.

They may not teach it (they do) You experience IT as the result of school bullies. Countries are full of people at some level of leaders that covet MORE. Grab ass on a grander scale. Trump is jealous of Venezuela Oil reserves which are MORE MORE and even More.

Greenland? Have not figured that one out. Maybe Iran will offer Trump a cut of its oil?

Oh and Iran does NOT need a Bomb to make a mess of lots of Planet.

Not sure what country or state you're from but I can attest growing up all I heard in regards to "world history" were the U.K and its formation. soviet union, WWI/II and the holocaust(for like the 9999th time)
Did you know at one point I wasn't aware that there was a third power in the axis of power?
everyone mainly talks about hilter, showed a bunch of fucking movies depicting WWII and the US fighting nazi germans but
it never occurred to younger me that pearl harbor was a part of all that.

Israel-Arab History was never mentioned in any textbooks nor was it in the curriculum at the time.

The Greenland, Canada, Panama, and the N and S American continents in general are goals of the Christian nationalist organization Heritage Foundation, many of whose members are now in the Trump regime.

Land grabs are dumb. Look at the French. They’re more enriched by their former colonies now that they don’t directly rule them. Preferential trade deals and the like.

The U.S. could simply garrison Greenland and with the same result. They offered it and mineral access. It will be the gateway to the northwest passage.

LATAM made its own problems by electing left wing populists who failed and really just lined their pockets instead of pursuing social justice programs. At least Nicaragua swindled China on BRI money.

Tbh "Christian nationalism" doesn’t exist. It’s just white supremacists who don’t believe in God cosplaying as Christians. If you actually read what Jesus said in the Bible it’s hard to square that with anything that comes out of a Christian nationalist’s mouth.
