blocks U.S. use of air base for Iran war; Trump slams allies - The Washington
Post Excerpts: “In the spectrum that
ranges from Rutte to Sánchez, the core is definitely shifting towards the
latter. From Daddy to Baddie,” said Nathalie Tocci, director of the Rome-based
Institute for International Affairs.
Vincenzo Camporini, former chief of staff of the air force
and defense and now scientific adviser to the Institute for International
Affairs, said Washington should not be surprised that allies are hesitating to
cooperate given the lack of consultation ahead of the war.
“I believe that this has to do with the fact that this
operation was launched without any consultation, without any consideration
about the need to at least inform the allied countries,” Camporini said. “You
cannot do like something like that and then request very, very abjectly the
support of the nations. I think this is something which should be considered by
Washington.”

Graham: Trump sharing gospel letter appropriate | WORLD
Who is
excluded from inheriting the Kingdom of God? (this article includes Bible
passages on who inherits the kingdom of God – important to know these in the
true context of believing the Gospel and following Christ)
“Do you not know that the wicked will not inherit the
kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: Neither the sexually immoral, nor
idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who submit to or perform homosexual acts,
nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor verbal abusers, nor swindlers,
will inherit the kingdom of God.” (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
“The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality,
impurity, and debauchery; idolatry and sorcery; hatred, discord, jealousy, and
rage; rivalries, divisions, factions, and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the
like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who practice such things will not
inherit the kingdom of God.” (Galatians
5:19-21)
“For of this you can be sure: No immoral, impure, or greedy
person-that is, an idolater-has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of
God.” (Ephesians 5:5)
“But to the cowardly and unbelieving, the vile, murderers,
sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars-their place will be in
the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This is the second death.” (Revelation 21:8)
Should these verses have been included in Franklin Graham’s
letter shared by Donald Trump?

pundit Tucker Carlson referenced this article and stated, “Imagine if the
Iranians did the EXACT SAME THING to an American bridge, say, the Brooklyn
Bridge or the Golden Gate Bridge, and also claimed over 100 casualties by doing
so. Washington would describe the attack as an animalistic act of terror and
use it to justify further bloodshed in the Middle East. But when the U.S. or
Israel does it, they pretend it’s self-defense or the SPREADING OF DEMOCRACY.”)
