This is true.

Old news "Did oil discovery trigger Trump’s historic Golan move? - world news - Hindustan Times" https://m.hindustantimes.com/world-news/did-oil-discovery-trigger-trump-s-historic-golan-move/story-D1ZuwO0lraF4dNzP0aytpK.html

A voting machine isn’t connected to the internet nor is it a webpage. It’s also not about if something can be hacked it’s if it has. For example atms can be hacked but we don’t accuse people of stealing money from them without any evidence @AntiFish03

Either way it’s a land grab. Hokan heights gives Israel a strategic advantage from a military standpoint. The land itself is very fertile and good for farming.

Can Trump proclaim one foreign nation's sovereignty over another's? It doesn't sound like something within his purview.

I lack in knowledge when it comes to the Middle East 😳

@AdamS large untapped oil Reserve just a bonus

@Zuluzeit You can recognize sovereignty yes.

@Beth this could help...oil

Not recognised by the UN, EU, international community. However the deal had been softened by the recent sale of F35’s to UAE by trump.

It’s always about the oil

Yes sir

Said that at the same time

@Beth it's all about energy.

@Maw Ah, it said proclaim. Recognizing seems like something he could do.

I mean he's not the world's president.

Lol no but that word goes a looonnngggg way.

Could you imagine 😂

50 gallons of oil is equivalent to 30 years of human work +- or something.

The original message I was trying to reply to was specifically about online voting. I was merely mentioning that it is insanely insecure and that the attack surface is huge. I agree we don't accuse people for stealing from an atm without evidence but atms are actually fairly hardened devices. But a website for online voting is really soft.

No. For the love of God I do not want to imagine that.

Recognition can lead to proxy wars @Zuluzeit it's anything but a small statement.

The world would go nuts. Or even more nuts I should say 😂

I stutter to think lol

See: Taiwan.

Why do I find that thought hilarious 🙈

🤣

@Maw Not a small statement but a far cry from 'a proclamation declaring sovereignty'. Isreal already did that, long ago.

It's usually seen as a way to intervene in foreign conflict, @Zuluzeit

E.g: If China made a push on Taiwan, the US would likely intervene.

One would think but no intervention was made in Hong Kong.

Even with Biden in charge?

@Maw He must have a reason at this late hour. Maybe something is about to happen.

Good point

Or maybe he is stirring the pot.

Pulling lynch pins.

Hong Kong wasn't in actual war, last I checked.

Neither is China with Taiwan ?

China has made war moves on Taiwan.
