The Wikipedia article about it is interesting. It was being constructed when the Soviet Union collapsed. The chinese bought it from Ukraine and finished the construction. So it’s got Soviet bones, but it’s not a Soviet ship

That’s an interesting way of doing sanctions. What’s worse? Cutting them off completely, or changing business practices to ensure you still get their money, but they don’t get the product?
The spy was interrogated?
This kind of got brushed under the rug, but you might remember that China claimed they were both spy’s. The Canadian government denied this. Then it turns out kovrig was a spy, and he was accused of using the other Michael for espionage activity without his knowledge. That Michael, spavor, sued the Canadian government. The Canadian government settled for something like 7 million.
#1. Israel is the aggressor. The state has been imposed on the people of the middle east through violence. #2. Through US support, Israel is the most powerful country in this conflict. They therefore have the moral responsibility to act in a way to promote peace #3. Hamas and Hezbollah are not terrorist organizations. They’re legitimately part of their respective government’s #4. Any act you’ve been told is a terrorist act by those two organizations was very likely legal under international law. Israel is an occupying force. People are legally allowed to fight that force through violence.
I believe he’s the type of guy that’s compartmentalized. He full heartedly believes that the rich need to be taxed more and that he’ll work tirelessly to prevent it because it’s bad for business
I made a prediction 2 years ago that elon would be the first billionaire turned homeless person. It was more a dream, but I’ve never made a prediction I want to happen as much as that one
This is just an example of how this was never about Oct 7. The West bank has a completely different government than the Hamas led gaza strip. There are no hostages in the west bank. This is a provocative act as isntreal continues to try and make a wider regional conflict.
If you take a look at their battery industry, you’ll see they’re taking it very seriously
Not like the people thinking he’s been saved by an act of god have much critical thinking skills
The people with money decided they didn’t like him. That’s what changed.
I guess if you deny a country entry into the Olympics based on genocide and apartheid it’s antisemitic
It’s less the people and more the trade routes and resources. Some would argue the most important in the world
And the US has been doing the same for Israel
How is a state that’s largely funded by another state not a proxy for the bigger state? It’s not a Israel Iran proxy war. It’s a us Iran proxy war
In it’s ‘war against Hamas’ Israel has now bombed 3 countries that has no Hamas
On 538, Harris is polling better or the same in national polls. The real issue is Trump’s large lead in all but 1 swing state.
IF Trump is the threat to democracy that the dems say, the shooting was a reasonable response. I hate this 'violence is never the answer ’ nonsense. I’ve been taught my entire life that sometimes violence is justified. For example: ww2, American revolutionary war, civil war, wars for independence (thanks Britain), Haitian uprising…
Of course they do. Those seas are notoriously rough. They need to test their ships. It’s also a show of strength.
This isn’t terribly unusual for the us to do. Is it slightly provocative? Yes. Is the narrative also fearmongering? Also yes
Dudes flailing and afraid of a Trump victory. I’ve spoken to Ukrainians, and the consensus seems to be they want to be independent, but they want the war to be done more
