The soldiers are from quatar lol. pathetic but they'll probably do a better job than the french at least.
The eternal flame that went from Babylon, to Pergamos, to Rome, and now Paris… Then they burned DeMolay, and the Templars fled and took their flame and gold hoards to the British crown where it resides to this day…
Olympic "flame" carries the "torch" – no pun intended France!
Here's a thought…. If climate change makes it difficult to host the summer games, why not host it during spring time such as May, when the weather is cooler?
LA will be ready 2028! LA mayor is with first Lady Mrs Jill Biden in Paris already.
Happy last day of relay
_ The UN and international law have not been working for a long time. The world is rolling into Chaos (a war of all against all). The "Global South", the "Global East" are aggressively advancing — the war in the Middle East, the war in Europe (in Ukraine), millions of migrants undermining the economy. As a result, the "Civilized World" (North America, Europe, some Pacific countries) is collapsing. We must save ourselves. We must defend ourselves. A hybrid World War III is underway. The United States and its allies should withdraw from the UN and create their own organization for security and cooperation. The "Forces of Good" must unite against the "Forces of Evil" and give a tough rebuff._
