The Israeli government should be more transparent about these events. Instead they seem to ignore the situation.

A United States treaty ally is selling diesel to Russia? Really difficult to comprehend South Korea is doing this.

Who owes who an apology? More than 176,000 tonnes of fuel, mostly diesel, was shipped from South Korean ports to Russia in July and August, Guardian analysis found. Three of seven tankers involved were under UK and EU sanctions, while one received its cargo via a ship-to-ship transfer. #Russia

Thank you my friend. As perhaps someone who speaks English as a second language it's humbling to receive your guidance.

The technology to sustain a human on Mars exists only on paper. There are no suits for humans capable of offering protection against cosmic radiation, and despite science fiction, food cannot grow in Martian soil even as depicted in the film.

Using a $10B piece of taxpayer property for a partisan rant. There should be laws against military leaders engaging in politics. Oh, wait, I forgot. There are.

I also believe that China has power over North and South Korean governments to maintain stability in exchange for certain economic benefits. The CCP likely views conflict on the peninsula as a major threat to China.

I view a weakened UK as a negative for the EU, and the United States. We, the US & EU cannot afford a UK economy which has smaller GDP than every state in the US.

As an American I have always been disappointed with Brexit. It was poorly conceived and took years to implement. I believe it damaged the UK economy.

This is purely a distraction by the South Korean government as a pretext to avoid helping Ukraine. The South Korean government instead prioritizes its relations with the CCP.

Also still zero accountability for the intelligence failures that led to the October 7th attacks. My father reminded me it was the 50th anniversary of the Yom Kippur War. He said it was incomprehensible that no precautions were taken.

Fairly reasonable. Wondering what diesel prices are in the tri-state area on average right now.

Bob Thomas @bobthomas2666.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
This demonstrates a massive disconnect now between the spot price of crude oil vs. corresponding regular gasoline prices. Apparently cracking catalyst supplies are the bottleneck. Diesel and gasoline should be available for considerably less based on the spot global oil price.
030
Bob Thomas @bobthomas2666.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
An adjusted-for-inflation gallon of regular gas from 2008 costs between $4.98 and $5.16 when calculated in 2026 dollars, depending on whether you evaluate the full year average or its record-setting peak. The peak 2008 crude oil price of $147 per barrel is equivalent to about $229 in 2026 dollars.

The current E4B "Nightwatch" fleet is 52 years old. The Cold War "peace dividend" lulled American politicians into neglecting this key element of United States strategic nuclear deterrence. youtu.be/2X8lMFMVj6U?...

It also meant deleting a key feature: the ability to refuel in the air, which the current Air Force 747s, technically known as VC-25As, possess. It is unclear whether this critical capability can be addressed.

Bob Thomas @bobthomas2666.bsky.social · 08/10/2026
Trump’s insistence that $1 billion be cut led Air Force officials to buy existing 747-8s that had been ordered but abandoned by a bankrupt RUSSIAN airline and modify them for use as the 2 new VC25 aircraft. That process, however, wound up costing much more. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

Wondering what the combat tactics decision process is for an evac scenario. Dispersal of forces is a first step but I wonder about sustainment of the forces & how they remain effective assets in a fluid environment.
