Europe's fatal mistake in the middle-ages: prohibit Christians from usury, but allow the Jews to practice it.
I wrote the same thing today on X (a historical fact) and got insta banned for 1 week. Twitter ramping up censorship.
Turns out the rules based order is complete bullshit from the start. The US wants to invade Venezuela no matter what even when Maduro tired to avoid war.
It's not complete bs. The rules are for others to obey, not the authors.
Chagos Islands are the ones most people are completely unaware about. It was TOTALLY ethnically cleansed by UK/US ~50 years ago. The entire population was displaced to Mauritius and left in abject poverty. All done to make room for a US base.
Interestingly, leaked documents showed UK officials discussing the option to turn Diego Garcia into a permanent nature reserve so the Chagossians cannot ever return. Such strange behavior - "we'll vacate the islands but won't let you return" - sounds like they hid something there or left a unremovable stain.
This place is also suggested by many to be where prisoners of wars from the middleast and Afghanistan were housed illegally and tortured.
