Poland had been the Pentagon’s sole authorized supplier of TNT. But it has been sending much of what it makes across its border to Ukraine, which is using all that it produces for its own military purposes.
That’s crazy. I wonder how long would the MIC be able to sustain a hot war if the EU and PRC stops exporting production to the US.
That’s it, the demolition of Gaza can proceed.
Indiscriminate force? I thought this would be about freedom of religion. Missed opportunity!
I don’t think they’d abandon their program if Trump kicks the bucket. This is bigger than him. If the right loses power during this mandate, they may not regain it for a long time and they may not be able to criminalize the left to the point of preventing an FDR 2.0 being elected in the near future.
I mean, university itself tries hard to create the perception of a meritocratic system through its testing and filtering mechanisms. You can go through a complete undergrad degree not only without having the inequities around you pointed out, but the opposite - having a strenghtened feeling of meritocratic success. I know I did. Unlearning that took many years and a lot of luck. Of course some programs wouldn’t let you get away like that but the curriculum contradicts many of the university’s processes. I wish a specially crafted minor in humanities was mandatory for every university grad but also a version of such curriculum should be taught even in high school. A pipe dream.
A portion of my social circle would burst in flames at reading this news. Shit’s tough under the influence of hasbara. I’m the useful idiot though.
Souns like the Palestinians left to live in Gaza under such a plan would become an underclass.
CCS is such a sham.
Surrounded it in spoiler with appropriate title. Is there another way to mark it NSFW in a comment?
I’m low-key excited about this. I’ll definitely be donating and voting in this election. I encourage everyone who can participate to do it as well. As we saw earlier this year with the LPC, leadership elections are very important and can dramatically the party’s performance in the federal election. Sicne much fewer people vote in leadership elections, every vote makes that much more difference.
Yes, it’s a mainstream article that serves to confirm these ships and submarines have been dispatched and that the map isn’t some exaggeration.
We deserve MP Critchley.
Well aware of the machine. Here’s official Russian sourcing. Not everyone who’s not a fan of the current Russian admin is a State Dept zombie. Here - the USSR was dissolved illegally and I’d take it anyday instead of the oligarchy that formed in the 90s.
No fam, there’s assessing the conflict critically, what it means for Russian people, Ukranian, etc. And then there’s unironiclly believing the Russian admin’s Nazi line. Especially given that admin’s treatment of various subsections of Russians.
Hm. I guess that makws sense. So the Russians are in a better position technologically while probably weaker in manpower than in the beginning of the war. But the tech could probably offset that. Economically they’re probably overall benefitting from shifting directly to Chinese products that have much lower profit margins than what they used to pay for European and US goods that flooded in after 1991. So their PPP ratio is probably rising. Would be interesting to see if that’s borne out in data. If they’re able to make more missiles, drones and such for less, in a sustainable fashion, then I guess there is a reason for building up deterrent manufacturing in the EU to counter it.
Correct me if I’m wrong but couldn’t the EU part of NATO have halted Russia’s “special military operation” in the very beginning, if they had actually decided to go in Ukraine? I seem to recall they didn’t want to go in because of various reasons, but I don’t think lack of military capability was one of them. Instead they decided to trickle in weapons as to “not be involved.” Did anything of significance change so that Europe is suddenly super weak militarily against Russia? I guess Europe is weak against the US, but that’s not quite the framing used.
Are they complaining? Carney’s approval is so high it’s gotta include some portion of conservatives who’re happy with him.
Could this be a trap?
