Then, I don't know what to tell you..:yu:

This is a profoundly moronic statement, for pretty obvious reasons.

When advisories like this one are issued, the "perceived threat" has more to do with landing/take off operations.

So, essentially the argument falls flat, doesn't it? (using a liar to prove a liar a liar). If you think about this man, it should remind you of the legendary "А у вас негров линчуют" soviet catchphrase. Ironically enough, said phrase took on a fresh meaning during Trumps' presidency too. :woot...

I know that this is getting off-topic, but I'm intrigued. Do you consider Donald Trump as a reliable source with regards to fact checking?

Isn't this immaterial to the subject at hand? You are using a "Tu quoque" here.

It is entirely possible to read a news piece and be able by doing a cross-reference to remove "color" from the facts themselves. Disregarding the whole due to conceived innate source bias is not a good way to consume media in general in my honest opinion. For a quick example in attribution. The...

This is interesting. My understanding is that the article (at least in the english version that I can read) contains no "color" whatsoever, but just lists verbatim what the different party leaders said today in the parliamentary session. Given the fact that each leader commented for an allotted...

If I understand this correctly Egypt and Italy are to be included in the Eastmed project. The signing right now was for the main pipeline, there are plans for expansion to incorporate the LNG infrastructure that Egypt maintains, and also build a branch sending gas from Greece to Italy. This is...

It's on.

Remotely good looking? Never ever? My friend, I think that you either have a pretty eclectic view on looks or something else is happening here.

I don't really see Turkey going "all in" on this one that easily. The particulars involved are pretty nebulous. At the same time, I don't think that LNA will reach a breakthrough that easily either.

The program has faced a number of delays and challenges, but seems to be in a good pace for induction inside this year. Climate change combined with the eventual opening of the NEP, NWP and TSR routes make ships like this one a very important asset for any player with aspirations in the region.

Israel gets first gas from Leviathan with exports to follow Tova Cohen, Ari Rabinovitch - Reuters 1.1.2020 JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israel’s $3.6 billion offshore Leviathan field started production on Tuesday, paving the way for multi-billion dollar gas export deals with Egypt and Jordan in the...

Italy fully backs EastMed On Thursday, Cyprus, Greece and Israel will sign, in Athens, an Intergovernmental Agreement on building the EastMed natural gas pipeline, and Italy's Minister for Economic Development Stefano Patuanelli, whose portfolio includes Energy, has sent a letter of support...

I'm seeing an unusually large number of threads lately getting derailed and devolving into idle banter. This is admittedly not a good look.

There is a popular trend (especially in the US under Trump) to view campaigns like this one as a waste of money and a squandering of public funds. Do not underestimate the soft power projection that humanitarian aid and assistance provides. Those projects do not only affect positively the...
