OFF TOPIC

Don't let the media make what's happening with Israel, Iran and Jordan into some "middle-east problem" again. This was entirely orchestrated and encouraged by the US and the UK. Israel initiated every attack against Lebanon, Syria, Palestine, and Iran. Israel KILLED, targeted, the children and grandchildren of Palestinians political leaders. And the US could've stopped all of this by simply not giving Israel money and weapons bu they didn't.
The Western media has constructed this narrative that countries like Iraq and Iran are the problem and the western nations are the antidote keeping their 'terrorism' at bay. No, they have always and at all times started the conflicts, or worsened them.
Because they want the land, they want hegemony over the resources of that region and that is it. And they've demonstrated already by killing over 33,000 people that they'll do anything.
Stop joking about World War 3 and take the loss of lives and the horror of what is happening seriously. This cannot keep escalating
"You have never left me for a single day since that sad event. I fear darling my nature is not demonstrative, but I want you to understand, that I am indeed grateful to you, for all you have done these busy months for me & I thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your love & for the enormous help & comfort which you have been to me in my new position.
I can't imagine how I could have got on at all without you, I shall never forget it...My love grows stronger for you every day mixed with admiration & I thank God every day that he has given me such a darling devoetd wife as you are....God bless you my sweet Angel May....''
