  1. Ну тупые! 🤦‍♀️🧟‍♀️

  2. EM Uncle, Zuckerberg is more kind than u. U are indirect negative hypocrite entity.

    Don't trick people into harming themselves because 要是你 Ai Xi Li bib yi ki zor yi bo suka aei mi kia, hai yi dioxi hai zhuan sek gai. Good luck to you. Framing other is framing your own universe by mentally control to abused themselvs. So Don t blame why disaster appear. It's about all your doing. Not hers.

  3. I don't like Putin but American news reporting is so cheesy. Dismissing it a "mafia" is lazy analysis. Embarrassing.

  4. Oh… This is NBC.
    I thought, for a second, this was real.

  5. Look at Putin. He is 80 they claim. No one really knows. Sure looks 55 or 60. He been sitting up there decades. Dismissed his wife and kids on the way in and took up a child concubine.

  6. Let's look at Ukraine since the USA showed up in 2014 .
    One puppet president after another.
    Massive corruption & political money laundering.
    State controlled media.
    Arresting any political opponents .
    Ukraine would have been far better off if we stayed out.

  7. Why do I feel manipulated NBC?
    What are you trying to make me feel about this?

  8. Yeah…that creep looks like Frankenstein!!

  16. "Nobody's Putin, It was just a little sound when I pulled out." – Mr. Garrison.

  17. Just watching …as he patiently waits…watching puting squirm…

  18. Prighozin is vlads Luca brasei

  19. The United States may look like a democracy but the American people know that biden and his cronies run it like a mafia…………that's closer to the truth !!

  20. There is only one country left on the planet that is not judged by skin color and religion, and that is Russia.

    Peace between Israel and any other nation depends on the Jewish people being at peace with each other.

    In the past, Israeli Jews were once united in times of war. Today, even war fails to unite us.

    There is no need for us to fight anyone. We will finish ourselves off with our own hands.

    Until we understand that everything depends on uniting above our divisions and discovering a common love, we will have no peace and calm with our neighbors.

    How does it work?

    It works because we are a special nation that was established not on biological ties, but on achieving the idea of “love your friend as yourself,” and it is that example of unity that will let us function as a healthy organ in the world.

    If we achieve such love for each other, then Palestinians will have no drive to fight us, and in general, the hatred against us will subside.

    If we wish to be at peace with Palestinians and the entire world, we first need to be at peace with each other.

    The still, vegetative and animate levels of nature are the only ones in a state of balance, because they have no free choice. They make no decisions as to whether they should behave one way or another, but they behave according to their inborn nature.

    We people, however, act according to our decisions that are higher than our inborn nature. We thus use these levels of nature—still, vegetative and animate, which are below our human level—egoistically, bending them however we wish for personal benefit.

    We thus destroy and empty the planet, plant life, animals, and eventually also people, due to the egoistic way we relate to each other and nature.

    The system we live in was set up so that we reach a state of mutual consideration, encouragement and support. That is the key to entering into a state of balance with nature.

    By acting contrarily, with calculations of self-benefit overriding those of benefiting each other and nature, we then knock ourselves out of balance with nature.

    Then, we experience this imbalance as suffering on personal, social and economic scales, and also as ecological blows, whether it be earthquakes, floods, wildfires, pandemics and several other phenomena that we call “natural disasters.”

    The more we head into the future without transforming our attitudes to each other and nature—from egoistic to altruistic—then the more we will experience our tightening interdependence negatively.

    However, if we start relating in a considerate, supportive and encouraging way to each other, then we will see how nature also relates positively to us. Accordingly, we will unlock a new balanced, harmonious and peaceful existence.

  28. 𝗪𝗵𝘆 𝗗𝗼𝗲𝘀 𝗪𝗮𝗿 𝗘𝘅𝗶𝘀𝘁? 𝗜𝘀 𝗜𝘁 𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗲𝗲𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗜𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗻 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲?

    War exists because the universe is made up of two opposing forces: reception and bestowal. When these forces do not enter into a balance, then they short circuit and try to destroy each other. That mutual effort of each side to eliminate the other is war.

    The root cause of war is in the clash of these opposite forces of nature: reception and bestowal. That clash of spiritual forces gives rise to wars that unfold in our material world.

    Therefore, stopping war at its source requires developing a regulating sense that has the ability to bestow above our innate force of reception, which are our self-serving desires that aim solely at absorbing into ourselves. In the language of Kabbalah, that bestowing sense is called a “screen” (Heb. “Masach”). Through this new regulating sense, we can acquire a state of positive and balanced human connection.

    That is the key to a war-free, harmonious and peaceful existence.

  29. Intensional news of hypocrites .😅
