Re: UKRAINE WAR - 2024 thread

The republitards might though if Biden wins so they can SOMEHOW blame something that was infinite percent their fault on the democrat in office (their standard MO-fuck it up beyond repair, than blame the democrats for not managing to fix it next term)

Re: Enterprise- Federation flagship?

That's an out-of-universe answer though, and don't we try to avoid those here? Though I can't think of an in-universe answer for why the E-E should've NEEDED to show up in the handful of battles we SAW as opposed to one of those merely MENTIONED. Maybe she was part of the defense of Betazed, maybe s...

Re: UKRAINE WAR - 1 YEAR AND GOING.

Um-'recommended' sounds like it isn't really mandatory. Is there an actual 'wording' on how much NATO members are supposed to pay?

Re: TRUMP: "I will Encourage Russia to Attack non-paying NATO Members"

Trump would burn down the ENTIRE WORLD if he doesn't get everything he wants-which includes everybody ignoring the facts that he is utterly ignorant about essentially everything, utterly incompetent at essentially everything, ugly, overweight and going senile.

Either 'soviet' is the determining factor or it is not. If it isn't Russia shouldn't have any claim on anything that was soviet, no matter where it was parked.

Russia can only the successor state to the USSR in ALL aspects, they don't get to pick and choose the once that benefit them and not be bothered by the rest. Either ALL of that heritage is theirs or NONE of it is.

The entire world already knows Israel is guilty as fuck and has for decades. At best they'll get a little nervous about waning US support (you think they'll actually LOSE US support over this, you're delusional.)

Biden having to deal with the fallout of having picked that person is fair. Blaming Biden for not being prescient and knowing something like that would happen is not.

Having seen the cost of an ambulance 'in Germany' I can only shudder to think what it'd be in the US. We actually still have snow! Was up to 2 inches when I was out shopping, Mom claims it's up to 8 inches on her end. Could be, hasn't stopped snowing since, plus she's a few metres higher than me. Mo...

Other than Howard the Duck those were regular MCU characters and did anybody else get serious 'Blade Runner' vibes from the police cars and the cityscape?
