The provisional count of all US deaths involving COVID-19 was 48,615 compared to over 200,000 during the same time period in 2022. Of those 98.4% of the deaths were elderly Americans. The pandemic is long over.

The provisional count of all US deaths involving COVID-19 was 48,615 compared to over 200,000 during the same time period in 2022. Of those 98.4% of the deaths were elderly Americans. The pandemic is long over.
The world is better than it ever has been since the 1970s. You are too young to know what it was like during the Cold War. We are not even under daily nuclear threats like was used to be. There isn’t a wall across Europe with two Superpowers pointing weapons at each other. Life is really good right now compared to the past.
The primary mission will likely be intercepting cruise missiles. The F-16C Block 50 that Ukraine is getting was the late 80s and early 90s model. The F-16s the United States flies are the Block 70. The aircraft includes a Honeywell H-423 Ring Laser Gyro Inertial Navigation System (RLG INS) for rapid in-flight alignment; GPS receiver; Data Transfer Cartridge with a larger capacity (128KB) to accommodate the planned avionics growth; Improved Data Modem for faster data transmission; AN/ALR-56M advanced RWR; AN/ALE-47 threat adaptive countermeasure system; digital terrain system data transfer cartridge; cockpit compatible with night vision systems; advanced IFF interrogator; Upgraded Programmable Display Generator (UPDG); MIL-STD-1760 data bus for programming new-generation PGMs; Horizontal Situation Display (HSD) for increased situational awareness and tactical flexibility on all missions.
The Block 50 also carries the Westinghouse AN/APG-68 V(5) radar, which offers longer-range detection against air targets and higher reliability. The radar has a programmable signal processor employing high-speed integrated circuit (VHSIC) technology. The latest batches of Block 50/52 carry the same radar, but versions V(7) and V(8) offer even greater-performance envelopes. The VHF/FM antenna is now incorporated into the leading edge of the vertical fin and has an extended operating distance. The cockpit includes two monochrome MFDs and a FOV HUD.
The Block 50s can fire the AIM-120 AMRAAM, the AGM-65G Maverick missile, and the PGU-28/B 20mm cannon round. The Block 50 can carry JDAM munition, the AGM-154A/B JSOW, and is the first F-16 version to integrate the AGM-84 Harpoon antishipping missile. The aircraft can launch the Harpoon in line-of-sight, bearing-only, and range/bearing modes. The addition of the Harpoon gives the F-16 a significant standoff range anti-shipping capability, especially when combined with optional 600-gallon fuel tanks.
It will go a long way at hurting Russia’s ability to conduct it’s war, but the aircraft alone will not win the war. It won’t be a match for air-to-air in most engagements and shouldn’t be used in that role. SAMs do a better job keeping the Russian air force grounded.
The F-16s they a getting are designed more for bombing and not for air superiority.
It doesn’t say it was.
That was one of the worst video in the history of videos. This is the shit you get now because YouTube took away the dislike button.
Siding with terrorists who rape women and children is not a popular stance. Hamas needs to be destroyed and they are embedded within the civilians.
That doesn’t mean the Israeli government is allowed to wipe out all of Gaza. A long military occupation is warranted but Israel should have to pay for the damages it caused.
I very doubt it even comes close to the destruction of WWII.
He is accused of reporting the truth within the borders of fascist Russia.
Sounds about right.
NATO nukes are fully operational. China’s nukes are operational. Russia’s nukes are likely broken and sold for parts. Pakistan’s nukes are largely broken. India’s likely are operational. Israel’s nukes are fully operational.
How many? Too many.
They moved TSMC production facilities to Phoenix, Arizona. It’s slated to open in 2025.
China gaining Taiwan would end global trade. That is the reason no one will let them forcibly take it.
Awaiting U.S. Bishops to refuse to allow this.
Most modern grenades send tiny pieces of metal outward about 50 feet but the kill radius is about 15 feet. Various factors can play into survival of a grenade blast like barriers, distance, and grenade quality.
Based on the video the poor quality of the grenades saved lives. Only six people received severe wounds, including the bomber. The grenades were dropped at the feet of those in the room and lower limbs were at risk.
Almost like it is right in the body.
When only the elderly vote, you get shit government.
Looking as who is voting, you’re not going to remove any Tories.
