This is one of the most factually correct and historically accurate scenes Hollywood has ever produced.
The average American mind cannot comprehend this.
"For behold, the Lord comes out of His place
To punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity;
The earth will also disclose her blood,
And will no more cover her slain."
One day, they will answer for all of it laid bare before the Judge of all.

“Saab” is the description of the pilot’s reaction when ordered to fly a Gripen against a 5th-Gen fighter that he’ll never see before dying in a fireball.
Gripen: A Smarter Flight Plan for Canada's Defense -
In the last couple of days, Saab announced an incredible surge in global demand that proves why the Gripen fighter jet is rapidly becoming a favorite for modern militaries.
Their new order bookings skyrocketed massively compared to last year, driven heavily by a major contract to deploy Gripen E jets directly to Ukraine.
On top of that, their overall corporate sales saw an impressive jump, easily beating the financial forecasts predicted by experts.
This outstanding growth shows that countries around the world are putting their ultimate trust in this tough, reliable aircraft.
Canada is on board to realize that the rugged Gripen makes PERFECT sense as our primary daily fleet.
While some military supporters lean toward the F-35, using such an expensive jet for routine Arctic patrols is simply impractical.
It is a much wiser strategy to deploy the reliable Gripen as our everyday workhorse because it can easily handle harsh weather and rough northern runways.
We can keep the F-35s in the background for rare, allied missions if needed, though much of these jets, for many now, are untrustworthy because of software being controlled by the Americans regardless of what is being said otherwise.
This new approach gives OUR pilots the perfect tools for any situation while saving a fortune for Canadian taxpayers.

Eventually it will be the Lourve or Notre Dame.
They can be stopped. But most don't have the stomach for what that would mean.
Everything is a threat to your sovereignty when you're as dumb as Canada has been for decades.
These people have zero awareness of what the root causes of their problems actually are, so they think constantly lashing out at whoever is ticking them off will somehow fix something.

This is why nothing can get done in Canada. The majority of Tribes don’t recognize Canada, and think it’s still 1620.
Incredible how we genuflect to a Stone Age society that did nothing of note for 8,000 years….
🦅👑⛔️⛽️ : Wet’suwet’en nation hereditary Chief Namoks says Canada must respect UNDRIP and is opposed to any expansion of oil & gas in Canada & in S. America.
Chief Namoks slams Mark Carney for Bill C-39 (Building Canada Strong Act), which seeks to fast track projects in the national interest, as defined by Mark Carney.
Mark Carney has opened Pandora's Box by saying companies & all Canadian governments must obtain consent from every FN Band that may be impacted by any project in Canada.
Under the Mark Carney agreement, businesses & governments must spend vast sums of money consulting with non elected officials who could care less about the Canadian economy.
These are leaders often have their own bloodline agendas that seek to enrich and empower themselves, at the expense of tens of millions of their fellow citizens & even their own communities.
These Chiefs don't see themselves as our equals. They do not respect us. They do not seek consensus.
No economy can successfully run under such an insane system. Canada has 634 First Nation Chiefs, many with separate and even conflicting agendas.
Mark Carney said any project must have the consent of First Nations. How will anything move forward, under such an onerous system?

A bit of truth on Truth and Reconciliation Day:
Most recorded residential-school deaths were from tuberculosis and other infections, not murder. That is what the records and the TRC analysis show. There is no evidence of a government program to kill children and hide the bodies in secret mass graves. Crowded dorms, poor ventilation, weak diets, and slow medical care turned the schools into disease traps. Kids often arrived with little immunity. TB was already killing people on and off the reserves.
The same diseases killed white children in orphanages, hospitals, and ordinary boarding schools. Child death rates were high across Canada until antibiotics and public health improved.
The 2007 settlement already paid about $5 billion to survivors. Later lawsuits added billions more. Those were legal payouts for a system run by earlier governments and churches.
Living taxpayers did not operate those schools. The reason the bills keep coming is not that every Canadian is personally guilty. It is that Ottawa keeps settling new claims and expanding annual Indigenous program spending—now tens of billions a year—under a political story that treats historical harm as a permanent moral debt on everyone alive today. The death record does not require that story.
It's time to stop the shakedown. Officials keep cashing political points by blaming people who weren't born when those schools existed. History is not a blank cheque. Enough.
Flaunts his wealth as some kind of patriotic virtue and then turns off the comments...

My favorite UNGA moment ever:
Haiti's president demands "respect" for the country, then drinks water directly from an enormous pitcher
Christianity has produced the most prosperous and free societies the world has ever known.
Hinduism, after thousands of years, has produced a country famous for endless piles of literal trash that everyone can't seem to leave fast enough.
If the Christian Right introspected, they could ask an interesting question: How did Hinduism, one of the world's oldest non Abrahamic religions survive thousands of years of conquest, political upheaval and violent proselytizing when other ancient faiths disappeared from their places of origin.
Take Zoroastrianism. It was once the dominant religion of Persia. After the Muslim conquest, it was essentially wiped out and Zoroastrians fled to India, where the Parsi community survives to this day. Freddy Mercury comes from this community.
India also absorbed Jews fleeing persecution. There was an ancient Jewish kingdom in southern India which was protected by the Hindu King. Hindu civilization's achievement wasn't merely surviving, it retained its own traditions while making room for others.
Perhaps instead of sneering at "pagans," the Christian Right might ask what a civilization that has endured for millennia can teach us about pluralism, resilience and religious continuity.
The Canadian military currently relies on other militaries (US) for most major logistical movement.
Canada has soldiers in Latvia, yes. But it has zero capacity to sustain them in any significant way in combat against a peer adversary.
War is won by logistics. Canada has none.
