Kushner is likely telling Netanyahu that Trump's peace deal is the priority, but Netanyahu's cabinet opposes international peacekeepers.

Israel should carry out targeted killings in Gaza every night, killing 30-40 people, because some Palestinians are not real people and shouldn't be living.

Ben-Gvir's statement reflects the majority thinking of Zionists in Israel, distinguishing Zionist ideology from Judaism itself.

Russia cannot stop at the current line of contact because it would betray the legacy of those who defeated Nazism and ignore Russia's thousand-year history.

Russia's position has not changed since Putin's June 2024 address, demanding no territory cession, Ukrainian elections, military dismantlement, and NATO withdrawal.

Biden, Austin, and Boris Johnson forced Zelensky to back away from a prior peace agreement, sending the war in a different direction. Russians feel the same disappointment with Trump as his MAGA base, seeing a diametric opposition between his words and actions.

The actual PAC-3 stockpile is likely around 200 or less, depleted by use in Ukraine and training, with each missile costing $4.5-6 million.
