Especially when the same pretext is used selectively? Israel is committing genocide in Palestine and doesn’t have to worry about its deposits in Europe. Regardless of your stance on Russia’s actions, such politicized treatment of bank customers, judged by different standards depending on current political needs, poses a significant risk of eroding confidence in the institutions that “protect” the capital entrusted to them in this way. The article on TrendCompass from Monday was dedicated to this looting: Europe’s lawless union. On Friday, 12 December, the EU crossed the legal Rubicon, in order to indefinitely freeze the $246 billion in Russian assets held in Europe. Under the previous system, the assets were frozen temporarily, and the freeze required a renewal every six months, conditional on a unanimous vote by all …

Also these are crimes of murder for which laws exist to investigate and prosecute. Jail and even enforce capital punishment. Not excuses for international wars.
I can't find one link from the SSPX showing the SSPX Chapels in Russia. Something is not right. I love the SSPX but they are not being honest when it comes to Russia. Not only that, but trying to search for a Chapel in Russia is impossible. They don't list even one, when I know there is at least two of them. Why don't they mention even one Chapel in Russia? Josef Schuztman has mentioned the one he attends and I believe another one in Russia. This is from a Russian site where they mention where the SSPX Chapels are. They list at least 3 in different cities. But not how many there are. The largest number of Brotherhood followers are concentrated in France, Germany, Switzerland and Austria. The Superior General of the Brotherhood is the Italian priest Davide Pagliarani, who succeeded Bishop Bernard Fellay. The Brotherhood's chapels of St. Pius X are also located in Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Minsk. Священническое братство святого Пия X — Википедия

Yes. And the altercation was because of how Jacob and Rebekah deceived the hapless Issac to steal the birthright. Why would God "need" a pair of liars to define His lineage? Because He would not allow anyone to boast of the lineage of the Messiah. With the altercation, Jacob received a limp and God's Mercy, like when we all fight God. The mark of Christianity. With God's Mercy, he receives the new name Israel. AND THAT IS THE MEANING OF ISRAEL.

Elon Musk: The amount of indoctrination that's happening in schools and universities is far beyond what parents realize --- “The amount of indoctrination that's happening in schools and universities is, I think, far beyond what parents realize. Let me give you an example that a friend of mine told me. His daughters go to high school in the Bay Area. And he was asking them, like, 'You know, who are the first few presidents of the United States?' They could name Washington. Then he said, 'Well, what do you know about him? Well, 'He was a slave owner.' 'What else?' Like, OK, that's, maybe you should know more than that. Slavery is obviously a horrific institution, but we should still know more about George Washington than that.”
