Interesting how France suddenly switched to a much more normal and acceptable stance on Palestine (including the statements in Egypt against a proposed ethnic cleansing), wonder what the catalyst was.

Also curious if Germany manages to keep their „saying Palestinians are humans equals antisemitism“ thing going, with even France moving closer to Spain, Ireland and Swedens standpoint. But I have little hope with Merz.

Ukrainians were/are still fighting to defend themselves from an illegal invasion. But America sees and has always seen Ukraine as a proxy to weaken a geo-strategic rival. NATO was not realistically on the table as long as the conflict in the Donbas was ongoing (it would have immediately triggered art.5) to keep promising NATO instead of working on a more realistic path to peace has probably caused the death of 100000s of Ukrainians. And just as with many other imperial proxies in history, the proxy is left to deal with the fallout while the empire retreats to the metropol and prepares for the next conflict.

Some protesters against the Stuttgart21 project would probably disagree, as well as German courts.

Not to mention all the excessive violence against the anti genocide protests.

Respect for turning an awful boomer meme into a reasonable programming meme with just two words.

A party is indeed the time and place where no jokes are made ever, no alcohol is involved, no cheesy flirting techniques occur, and everything is meant a 100% seriously always.

They used the term ‘nongovernmental combatant’ (aka terrorist), because a war can only be between states these combatants were not legally POW and thus had no right whatsoever.
