6 months agoKyiv’s allies “fear” Russia’s loss in the war against Ukraine because it would involve “unpredictable geopolitics,” according to Zelensky.
Is “unpredictable geopolitics” a euphemism for ‘nuclear war’?

Never said there wasn’t.
Never said that you said.
Just pointing out that it’s not just solely the politics that prevents the change from happening (though that’s a part of it).
There’s a lot of inertia to overcome. It’s not just those with interests protecting those interests.
We already have the technology to replace all fossil fuel energy production and almost all types of fossil fuel burning transport.
Does your above response include this point …
that works as efficiently as oil does
–
Only thing we’re missing is for greedy politicians to get out of the pockets of the fossil fuel industries so that the transition can happen in earnest.
Not saying that you’re wrong at all, but there’s also the issue of completely replacing our infrastructure to support the new technologies, and the costs involved in doing that.
Not an easy task, though a worthy one.
Mr. Biden’s willingness to grant a mutual defense treaty and other benefits to Prince Mohammed is a sharp departure from his vow during the 2020 presidential campaign to ensure the country remains a “pariah” because of human rights violations.
We compromise our morals/ethics again and again in the name of obtaining oil.
We really should come up with a different fuel source for our nation, that works as efficiently as oil does, and leave that region to solve its own political problems.
However, it’s also not very common that you have a candidate and ex-leader being in court.
I’m not saying don’t cover it at all. Its historical, for sure.
I’m just saying don’t cover JUST THAT and nothing else.
Wish the major News networks would cover this more, instead of just Trump court cases 24/7.
And would do so regardless, which makes any cease fire worthless until they change their mind and stop.
Twelve hours later, a lot can change.
In that case you should know that he’s repeatedly said that they’re going to invade Rafah regardless of any cease fire, it’s just a matter of time.
Last I heard they were already starting to do that.
Someone hasn’t been paying attention to what Netanyahu is saying…
He’s on the news every day. Kind of hard not to.
It doesn’t matter because if Israel doesn’t accept it, the war will continue as if it didn’t happen.
Well, I didn’t say it would be effective or not, just that it matters in the moment, it’s a focal point.
That’s what I meant by “Wheels within Wheels”. The political chess game that is played after each move. It’s not something to be simply ignored.
Since that article says virtually nothing… does Israel accept that proposal?
My understanding is this just happened, and Israel has not had a chance to respond to it yet.
Otherwise, this hardly matters.
Actually, it matters a lot, as Israel was just about to invade Rafah.
Wheels within wheels, games within games, moves and counter moves.
TSA employee: “Sir, are you happy to see me, or is that a reptile in your pants?”
12·6 months agoI don’t remember the movies that way, but more just about politics and what makes a democracy and what doesn’t, with a background of space wizards fighting each other, and regular people just trying to make their way through all the BS or fighting back against oppression.
Why is there a license in your comment?
I get that question asked frequently, so I’ll just point you to this comment from me, which explains. …
From the article…
A city court in Syktyvkar, the largest city in Russia’s northwestern Komi region, is charging Kasparov of “creating a terrorist society, leading it, financing terrorist activities, and publicly justifying them,” according to Kremlin-backed outlet TASS.
Its getting rediculous how countries trump up charges against their enemies.
I wasn’t speaking about you personally, but just the time it would take to unite non-NATO countries with NATO and present a united front against Russia, when it comes to stopping their aggressions. Apologies for the confusion.
My comment about sacrificing of Ukraine was just based on time delay, if Ukraine could hold out and wait that long for the other countries to get their act together, or not.
I wish the best for Ukraine.
Of course but they can get all the countries that are not part of NATO, wait a few years and then come back with full strength, new ressources, new alliances and then we can ask ourselfs if there was not a place in time we could have prevented this…
The theory of sound, but most countries look towards their own self-interest first (unfortunately), so it may be harder to get all the countries together than you state.
Still it’s something we should try, it’s better to unite around peace and stability beforehand, than after a war.
It’s MAD
Dumb typo, I’m aware it’s MAD (mutually assured destruction).
And I agree. Otherwise every nation with nukes can just bully other nations.
And in the case of Ukraine they actually had nukes, and gave them up on the promise of our protection, so I definitely think we should be protecting them all out, no matter what.
Nice stats, thanks for sharing.
But you need to add one more stat, for paywalled or not, including if they count how many articles you’ve read before they put up the ‘must subscribe’ paywall.
