					<description><![CDATA[}}} &lt;i&gt;does Putin have more blood on his hands than Hillary Clinton?&lt;/i&gt;

Hey, everyone, I found the retard!

Of course Putin does. HIS crap goes on behind closed borders and with a fully compliant media which is utterly cowed by his dictatorial powers. If you came up to him and said he was a dickhead, on the streets of Moscow, you would be inside Lubyanka prison or its current equivalent within hours. And the Russian government would be all, &quot;Dave who?!?!?&quot;

Hillary&#039;s media support is only based on political support not abject fear. Have people been killed for offending Hillary? Possibly, but not all that many, or it would have been noticed. Her potential victims are numbered retail, not wholesale.

Don&#039;t get me wrong, Hillary is a bitch from Hell, and should be removed by some moral sanitary authority... as should Putin. But, lacking such an authority, we are stuck with them.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&lt;i&gt;Israeli Leaders view of her neighbours upon its border intolerable, in same time the neighbours hold same view against Israel.&lt;/i&gt;

Israel signed a peace treaty with Egypt in 1979 and with Jordan in 1994.  Israel also concluded a non-belligerency pact with the Lebanese government in 1983, though it was a dead letter in short order.  Syria&#039;s never been willing to negotiate anything more elaborate than a temporary truce with Israel.  Between 1949 and the present day, Israel has annexed the Golan Heights (700 sq miles) and part of greater Jerusalem (about 50 sq miles).  The majority of the settler population on the West Bank lives in one of six settlements which between them have a land area of 32.4 sq miles.]]></description>

https://news.yahoo.com/russia-says-military-action-will-stop-immediately-if-ukraine-agrees-to-four-conditions-121826715.html

Pesko said Ukraine must:

cease military action

change its constitution to enshrine neutrality

acknowledge Crimea as Russian territory and,

recognise the separatist republics of Donetsk and Lugansk as independent territories.

Peskov said that, if those conditions are met, Russia&#039;s military action will halt &quot;in a moment&quot;.

He added: &quot;They should make amendments to the constitution according to which Ukraine would reject any aims to enter any bloc. This is possible only by making changes to the constitution.&quot;

He also insisted Russia was not seeking to make any further territorial claims on Ukraine.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[DF:

No.

It&#039;s not Israel who finds the other countries near it &lt;i&gt;intolerable&lt;/i&gt;.  It&#039;s they who don&#039;t recognize Israel&#039;s right to exist.  That began with the partition of the British protectorate of Palestine - a former colony - into Israel and an Arab state. This was done by the UN.

Israel accepted the partition and its neighbors. The Arab states refused to accept Israel and declared war on it, and lost that war and subsequent wars.  It&#039;s the Palestinians who erase the map of Israel and want to take it over.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Wikipedia (yes I know) has a timeline of WWII events during 1942, a crucial year.  Basically day-by-day headline summaries:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_World_War_II_(1942)

Germany had some advances in 1942; Rommel reached Egypt and they drove on Stalingrad but by the end of the year they had been beaten back, the final summary is

 &quot;As the year draws to a close, things look much brighter for the Allies than they did a few months ago: Rommel is trapped in Tunisia, the Germans are encircled at Stalingrad, and the Japanese appear ready to abandon Guadalcanal.&quot;

So turning point maybe mid-late 1942, just about bisecting the 6-year war.  I would say though that the image of German &quot;invincibility&quot; ended earlier though when they failed to capture Moscow.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[FOAF:

No, I&#039;m not thinking that.  Historians disagree on what the turning point was.  &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.historynet.com/what-was-the-turning-point-of-world-war-ii/&quot; rel=&quot;nofollow ugc&quot;&gt;I have read analyses&lt;/a&gt; of the war that say the turning point from German victories to the beginning of German defeat was the siege of Stalingrad, which ended in 1943.  Others say differently and earlier, but Stalingrad is a common answer.  So it&#039;s &quot;several years&quot; from the beginning in 1939 - the invasion of Poland.  Sort of a wishy-washy way to put it, but it&#039;s not an exact moment that everyone agrees on.

The point I was attempting to make was not an exact number of years, but that for a long time it looked very dark for the Allies - and even seemed hopeless because the Germans had pretty much conquered Europe.  And then it changed, and by a certain point (and historians disagree on that exact point) it looked hopeless for the Germans.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[neo, I think ADs point is that Hitler was successful for only about 1-2 years after the  date WWII started in Europe, Sept. 1939 and it is a reasonable one.  You may be conflating Hitler&#039;s prior successes (Rhineland, Anschluss, Munich) with the beginning of the war.  Though those early WWII successes were huge, conquering most of Europe.]]></description>
