No it’s a terrible thing and drain on society. Your simpleton mind saying just don’t get addicted and completely ignoring the empathy of the situation and not facing the problem of how to deal with it makes you a child.

Looks like as Taiwan annexation issue heats up, west is trying to avoid fighting on two fronts by putting a quick plug on Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
This would also help defer the Taiwan timeline that China might have been planning.

South Asian nations are the ones on the Indian subcontinent, and they’re not close either.
It’s Southeast Asian nations that are close by. So it should be Southeast Asia Sea. Abbreviated to SEA sea.

I guess the foresight is that as with most dictatorships, Putin's Russia has no clear line of succession. When he dies, or even as he ages, he grows more susceptible to coup or civil war. The Arab Spring occurred in every Arab baathist presidential dictatorships with aging presidents, but notably not any of the Arab Kingdoms. There's no guarantee that the outcome will be a democratic wave in Russia, as we saw with the results of the Arab Spring. But to say that we'll rationalize with hindsight I think is silly-- the groundwork is there, the catalyst is the real question. In the Middle East and North Africa, it was a food vendor self immolating, which is about unexpected as things get.

I think it’s more a factor of oil wealth cushioning the Gulf kingdoms and resulting in economic stability on one hand and good decision making in the case of Jordan and Morocco. Bahrain had the intervention of the Saudis and other Gulf States.
The countries where the dictators were overthrown were really struggling economically and there was no hope a successor under that regime would be any better. The protests started as economic frustration over basic necessities before escalating to wanting to overturn the whole system.
Mubarak clearly wanted his son to succeed him, just like how Bashar al-Assad succeeded Hafez in Syria, but the Egyptian people didn’t want that. Even many of his allies didn’t want that. He also wasn’t a Ba’athist, his National Democratic Party was big tent party of power that didn’t really have an official ideology than to support him.
And Assad, who is the only nominal Ba’athist of the lot of them, wasn’t old and close to death like the others. He was only 45 when the protests started in 2011 and he’d already been in power for over a decade. It’s going to take ages before he dies and that was the whole issue there. And in Libya it was clear Gaddafi wanted his son to succeed him too but nobody wanted that either.

Al Jazeera broadcasts in two languages: English and Arabic. The English version is Islamic propaganda, but usually veiled enough to pass Western ears. The Arabic version does not have such reservations, and the Islamic propaganda there is obvious and open.
Despite what you say, in both languages, many of their stories are not credible at all, and are nothing but blood libels. Take for example the story they published about IDF soliders raping Gazan women. Even Al Jazeera had to retract this story and admit it was a lie. The reason they retracted it reveals even more about their motivation. Apparently, the Gazan population believed it and started avoiding battle zones, which meant Hamas was losing their precious human shields. In other words, Al Jazeera invented a story they thought will help Hamas, and retracted it when it backfired. Al Jazeera is an arm of the Islamic Brotherhood, just like Hamas.

I don’t think you’re correct. In my opinion, you are wrong about their motivation. I think their motivation is to establish the supremacy of Islam. Muslims were killing other Muslims who they deemed illegitimate or false believers long before the West got involved. You say “the basic thing” is Islamic Extremism can’t exist without western xenophobic discourse. It existed long before that., because it’s not about that. This is a fight by religious zealots who slaughter their own, not simply a response to protect Muslims from the West. Islamic extremism does not depend on western xenophobia as you say. Islamic extremism was always thinking of the world.

They haven’t done that? There has been annexed land which has been built on, no literal kicking Arabs out of their homes, except in sheikh jara/ shimon hatzadik, which was literally Jewish owned and rented by Arabs who started refusing to pay rent for several years and then were evicted. Again with regard to J/S, you start wars, you lose land. In 67 Israel gained control of J/S and Aza plus Sinai and Golan. The Arabs were given full control over parts and partial to no control over others.

The far right is also misogynist like the muslims that they hate. There are a lot of layers of irony to societal views. In this case it's largely just intolerant people clashing with a slightly different flavor of intolerant people. The tolerant people are also creating intolerance but being overly tolerant towards the intolerant. It's all really stupid, people are driven too much by emotion.

If they don’t fulfill the role, there’s no reason to fight them. If they make it their purpose to wipe out Jews, they fulfill that role. Amalek aren’t an innocent group, they attacked Bnei Yisrael out of nowhere, and that’s why Gd said to “erase the memory of Amalek”.

Unfortunately, I think a US ship will actually take some damage from one of these attacks before the clearly restrictive rules of engagement they're working under are relaxed a little.
And then once that *actually* happens, there will be feigned horror about how this could possibly occur, followed by the drums of war being declared and the US military actually aiming to neutralise the threat permanently, rather than reliving their childhoods playing *Missile Command*.

No but it seems that they'd target missiles and drones only - so no Russians would be directly killed by shooting those down, unlike if NATO targeted manned aircraft.
So whilst it wouldn't be a no-fly zone, it would be a big equaliser for Ukraine.

A no fly zone is different. US doctrine demands that a no fly zone involves actively destroying all AA batteries that could challenge American or allied planes enforcing it. That *would* be an attack on Russia. Putting a few extra US manned patriot missiles way back from the front lines and zapping drones on the Ukrainian side of the border is a bit different.

A bloodless invasion of Ukraine though, with the same bullshit excuse that Russia used, coordinated entirely in-step with any forces in the western-half AND informing Russia of the drawn-out process to allow Ukraine to mobilize entirely on their eastern-half would be top NAFO material.
