PLATT - CURATED News


Jan 21...2023 .. embedded question .. Vic
Question... Here is an opinion source that I have issues with over the stand in Netanahu and NATO. .  NOT without some concerns myself .. but ..  He seems to have a global volunteer direct feed to citizens of many nations from which he extracts and formulates predicted interactions almost daily.  Controversial. But much of the angst he explores is not even NEAR the top read of the major media.  Opinions? Link here.


End of question
