I wasn't sure where this Israel, Iran and China debacle should go, so I thought I would start a new thread and post it here:

Interesting article disusing Israel's actions in trying to destabilize Iran and how it monumentally backfired and brought China into the Middle East... it's kind of crazy

 

"To the extent that Netanyahu played a role here, his plot has backfired monumentally. If the China deal goes through, Iran is much strengthened and its hard liners are entirely unleashed. The positioning of Chinese security forces in Iran will make it increasingly risky for other countries such as Israel or the US to strike Iran, lest they come into conflict with nuclear-armed China."

It's just disgusting what this mad man is going to get away with. Ruining history country, sending conscripts to their deaths for no good reason and wantonly bombing civilians.  Putin can go **** himself with a rusty fork.

They've already denied it. Apparently, the hospital was actually a base. This has been confirmed by Russian diplomats. All very on the up and up.

Yup, actually the only dead are Ukrainian "crisis actors"

PBS did an interview with the Mayor of Konotop. They blurred out the portrait behind him because....it was a photo of a Nazi Leader Stepan Bandera.

The mayor (Semenikhen) is a well know Neo-Nazi apparently.

He said during the interview he's using American weapons to kill Russians. Kind of a damned if you damned if you don't situation. But the west needs to be VERY careful doing this. Especially with the propaganda out of Russia that they are de-nazifying Ukraine.

Next out of the Russian government, nobody is dead they are all actors

The list of war crimes committed by Russian forces continues to lengthen. 

TBF, the USA takes out a children's hospital every war.

FYI: Bandera was not a Nazi, but he did cooperate with the Nazi invasion to drive out the Russians during the early days of WW2 to try to gain Ukrainian independence from Russia. When the Nazis turned on the Ukrainian partisans, he fought them as well, and again against the Russians when they returned to Ukraine. The Russians mounted a major disinformation campaign to vilify him and paint him as an absolute Nazi. I believe the KGB assassinated him in Vienna after the war.

re: EV's..... I thought the GM Superbowl ad said they were going to be exclusively producing EVs by 2025. Not sure if there's "fine print" that goes with that, or what, but I was intrigued anyhow....

I've tried finding info on him, but it hasn't been clear

IIRC, he was poisoned in Munich and died shortly after. He remains a controversial figure to this day in Ukraine.

I put a $100 deposit to get on the cue for the 2024 Silverado EV WT...this is the work truck version that doesn't cost 100k. I received an email from GM Canada stating that they received my deposit and that due to limited supply I was on a cue for the 2026 production year.

Yeah, that's really what I need... a Silverado EV. Crazy that they're already limited on availability...

There's so much demand and so little supply right now. Everyone seems to be trying to catch up but supply chain disruptions have put everything back. The waiting lists are long for all EVs, it seems.

The chip shortage has significantly affected industries around the world, vehicle production in particular (regardless of propulsion system).

The Korean manufacturers seem to be racing to go all-EV first., so you may want to keep an eye on them.

Chevy hasn't finished building it's EV plant yet. Not sure why the others are so slow out of the gate too. Could very well be the chips, although, both Chevy and Ford are both predicting normal production for 2022 and 2023 on all their gas models.

Chevy has 150000 on the reservation list for the Silverado EV. Most will not get one until 2025 at the earliest. That's not huge production numbers in the next few years considering they are successfully rolling out 600000 gas Silverados for 2022 alone. The Ford Lightning is not taking reservations but demand is so high that their dealers were scalping them for outrageous sums. Not even going to talk about Tesla....who took 10k down payments on Cybertrucks that were supposed to be rolled out 2 years ago and are still not even close to being on the market. Bottom line is that it is unlikely EVs become mainstream before 2030.

I can't wait to get mine. I am really hoping that someone puts a charging station between Winnipeg and Thompson though or I will have to use my current Silverado. Charging stations, or lack thereof, are certainly a huge concern for anyone rural who may be looking at an EV.

I would be SHOCKED if there wasn't one along the way....I'm not sure on the direct route to Thompson, but Dauphin or The Pas has gotta have at least one, you'd think. 

So much propaganda and misinformation surrounding the Russia/Ukraine conflict.  So, to get the straight goods........listen to The Alex Jones Show on INFORWARS

Swan River looks to be the "nearest" place to Thompson but it's not exactly on the way.
