Hamas is a terrorist organization.
Putin's Russia is a terrorist organization.
Iran's theocrats support both Hamas and Russia.
They all collaborate.
Israelis, Ukrainians, Americans & the entire democratic world must deepen their collaboration to defeat this terrorist alliance.
Thank you for the book, Colonel @vadim_khodak 🇺🇦🫡
My brand-new @MercedesBenz #EQS has been repaired for over 30 days. The main screen turned black, and they can't fix it. For comparison, it took Tesla a day to replace my #ModelS screen.
Fortunately, California lemon law is clear,and @MercedesBenzUSA will have to buy the car back
