    May never recover? 80 years ago, Germany was split in two and the depths of the holocaust were still sinking into the worldwide consciousness. Given enough time, it absolutely can recover. Probably not in my lifetime, but eventually it might. Or maybe it’ll end up like Yugoslavia, the Soviet Union, or the nation of Taiwan. Wait, that last one hasn’t happened yet… forget I said anything.

      My man, the Earth has like 20-30 years of habitabiloty left max, and we are not really doing enough and we only started doing it all 30-40 years too late.

      The US doesn’t have 80 years to recover thanks to the Climate Crisis.

    Iran winning the war just shows how weak US really is. Best of all, Trump as being a big loser as he is still trying to sell it as he made something big for his country. In reality, however , Iran will get to collect money for every ship going through (up to 70 billion a year), the economy will takes years to recover, the oil facilities will take months to crank up again, the amount of money he spent doing nothing will burden Americans for generations. What a way to be a loser, small hands.

    Because every ship is now being paid for to swim through there you can expect everything to jump in price.

    I am hoping it can go a loooot lower! Maybe low enough for their war criminals to pay for their crimes.

    Probably the only good thing Trump has done. He ripped off the mask that America was wearing, and showed everybody their true self.

      I wish it wasn’t true, but the more I read about the US the worse it gets, all the way back to its golden days and beyond.

                Oh, I am just being silly. I have studied human rights my entire adult life and I only know a fraction of what the US has done and will do.

                It would take more than my lifetime to just recite all the lives destroyed and atrocities committed by the US.

                  Ahh, that makes sense. Yeah, I just recently finished a book on the US military, and holy shit. I knew the gist of their crimes, but knowing the details really puts things in perspective.
