Immigration Battles, Middle East Proxy Wars, and Europe’s Gamble in Ukraine

Taking chances is not obeying the law , but it is easier to bring specialists from your own country than train people for a timed project. For this reason, most of the South Koreans detained in Georgia entered the US on the 90-day Electronic System for Travel Authorization ( ESTA ), which can be easily obtained over the internet, or on B-1 visas. Both allow business trips, but neither permit manual labor, which puts factory engineers at risk. Other foreign companies, many of them Korean, face the same difficulty.

Immigration Reform: Perhaps the message is simple: immigration reform and temporary work visas. If you give them a four-week window to search in the US and can't find anyone, the same people who lament the raids glorify the failure of the Trump administration to create jobs and increase unemployment numbers. It is not that it is impossible to legally enter the country.

In recent years, the United States has granted about 1 million green cards annually; while the share varies a bit from year to year, roughly half are given to immigrants already in the United States who are adjusting from another status (for example temporary worker or student). The remainder go to applicants outside the United States. In both cases, the majority of these visas require sponsorship by a relative or employer.

Middle East Proxy Wars: Hamas, Houthis and Hezbollah— the Iran proxies —and the Qatari cover. What is the endgame? Israel is still determined to kill all Hamas, claiming to know where they are, at the same time ignoring diplomatic efforts and humanity. The biggest hurdle for current peace consideration is a global dysfunction of Western governments, from Germany, UK, and France to the EU, and add the unifying common theme: hate Trump and he is a dictator, so they will turn the EU into a fascist empire , who may finally beat the Russians, so they hope. That people sympathize with Palestine is great, but they should address their anger to the British Parliament—remember them of 1948. Decisions have consequences, but like all the former colonies and territories, once they left, well we got the money. Military power did solve the Saddam and the Assad problem , kind of killing the Hamas leadership, but it did not resolve the ideological and leadership issues. As much as making a US leftist think democracy, it will be much harder to convert radicals, but killing them all—perhaps we relieve some old biblical times , but critics of religious war are quick to point out: wars should only be termed [religious wars], in so far as at least one of the belligerents lays claim to 'religion', a religious law, in order to justify his warfare and to substantiate publicly why his use of military force against a political authority should be a bellum iustum. [10] Oil is money. More to the proxy network here and the Hamas leaders, dead and alive. And here an article about Gaza City (translate)—is bombing really the only alternative?

The coastal strip on the eastern Mediterranean was a fortress and transit land, a gift to queens and spoils of conquerors, a place of incense, markets and religions. Between sand and sea, a drama has unfolded over thousands of years that reaches into our warlike present.

EU Military Strategy: So, the EU with its grandiose politicians have agreed to build up its military, still glooming over a Ukrainian win, saber-rattling rhetoric and great sandbox military strategies , but no talks with Putin, hoping the Russian economy and Putin's power will cede before Ukraine becomes a rubble field. On the other hand, with the Europeans and the war mongers disagreeing with talks and a potential land swap, Putin has taken the advantage to increase his attacks to a point of no return for Ukraine. So, we are entering a path of total destruction, Russia teasing the resolve of Europe , knowing if they attack their oil resources , India and China will join the fight, while Ms. Van der Leyen will spend some 50 billion (interest on Russian seized oligarch monies) to finance weapons. What these people all do not understand is it is wishful thinking to destroy Russia. Once Ukraine cuts the pipelines to Hungary and Serbia, some friends may turn their interests as well. And boots on the ground—there is only one army on the planet, the US. Forget the Europeans, and it will take 250,000 plus if they want an all-out war. Perhaps time to remember: Russia and the US took out the Nazis. The war mongers disagree—it was all US—but I do not believe we should add a contest to find out. Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq—wasn't it all a walk in the park? Putin playing chess, the EU plays Parcheesi? Or as the Asia Times suggests, the drones in Poland may have been a NATO jamming job , as was the Ursula van der Leyen claim that her plane was targeted by Russian hackers. If you need more proof that China needs resources to fuel its economy , here you have it, and the EU sanctions, up in smoke. The recent negotiation breakthrough for constructing the Power of Siberia 2, which will transport 50 billion cubic meters of Russian natural gas to China via Mongolia annually, is expected to significantly change the geopolitical landscape and energy markets, according to Chinese and Western analysts.

The Democratic Party Shutdown Strategy: We've got ANTIFA and Weathermen in Congress, and a shutdown to please the 5%—is that a winning strategy? Perhaps a clear indication that the Democratic Party no longer exists. It is a Kimmel–Colbert–Springsteen sound-setting orchestra, with tunes from Rosie, Joy Reid, The View and Psaki, and MSNBC and other leftist commentators. Schumer and Jeffries are no longer relevant; the squad rule is on. Thank you, Bernie and Soros, but the shutdown will hopefully silence all government waste, a shutdown DOGE? If we miss you, we let you know, but for now, it is the Republicans in favor 70:30. Here's an explainer: fight, fight, fight against Trump—the only reasoning the Democrats offer these days. We need to elect politicians, not litigators and Soros activists. Axios has reported throughout the year how Hill Democrats have been besieged by an increasingly angry base demanding that they " fight harder " and "do something" about Trump. – In February, shortly after President Trump's inauguration, it was voters blowing up Democrats' phone lines with demands to "fight back" against DOGE. – In March, it was angry crowds gathered at town halls to chew Democrats out for purportedly not doing enough to resist Trump, which some lawmakers compared to the rise of the Tea Party. – By July, Democratic lawmakers were expressing concerns about their base demanding they put themselves in harm's way to draw attention to the administration's use of physical force. But it looks like the Democrats are united, with presidential candidates proposing and supporting the radical stance. Just wonder: Gavin Newsom urged Democrats to stand firm amid the government shutdown Friday, saying, "You lose leverage, you lose this country." ANTIFA leverage? The shutdown —essential and non-essential—or why are there government non-essential functions? Are the SPLC (no leftists), ACLU, ANTIFA , and the Redneck Revolt all part of non-essential feeding grounds? And what about academia ? Or are we at the start of a John Brown revolution, with unidentified actors/founders ? Portland, Oregon: Portland Oregon —why is ICE and the Trump administration so focused on Portland? It looks like an Eldorado to live in the state and city , but also a hotspot of the rebellion, because the elite rulers use it to provide what? A one-party state for many years . Oregon hasn't always had a lack of affordable housing, costly and poor-performing public schools, high taxes and heavy regulations on businesses, rampant drug addiction and homeless campers everywhere. Whom do you blame for all of this? Perhaps because people move there to live a hippy life—I mean a happy life—or the political mix. The people in rural areas don't care if the cities get waxed by anti-fascists. A 2008 analysis by political statistician Nate Silver on states' political ideology noted that the state's conservatives were the most conservative of any state (more so than Utah or Tennessee) and that the state's liberals were more liberal than any state (more so than Vermont or D.C.). For now, a Trump judge ruled in favor of ANTIFA . Let the demolition go on—happy winter. 'Justice has been served': Gov. Tina Kotek, others praise judge's ruling blocking troops to Portland. FBI Political Affiliations: Is the FBI politically Republican-charged? There is some social media claim that since the 1950s, no Democrat was leading the FBI. If you are counting James Comey, Robert Mueller, and Christopher Wray as Republicans, you perhaps need to note there is a litany of Trump haters in the Republican Party. But for good measure, it is called the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and nominations are approved by Congress and controlled by the AG and the US intelligence committee. Wonder why this is a question when Trump is president? Looks to me, with 90% lawyers on committees, like a straightforward legal matter. And shifting priorities —left and right have extreme activism . It is just a question of who you ask, so why not check them both accurately? But mental sickness is not part of an ideology—unless some publishers are politically biased.
