Re: Israel orders mass 'evacuation' from Northern Gaza, humanitarian crisis certain to ensue
How do you know if someone charged with a crime is 100% guilty? When they start making violent threats against the court and prosecutors -and their families. Case in point: Twelve senators signed an open letter threatening the International Criminal Court with military action if they issue arrest w...

Re: OJ Simpson dies aged 76
OJ Simpson was held up as an example of a nice, well-mannered young man for his entire career in football. He became even more famous for the Hertz commercials where he ran through the airport and was given lead roles in several movies in spite of a total lack of talent (he almost got the role of th...

Re: Israel orders mass 'evacuation' from Northern Gaza, humanitarian crisis certain to ensue
Which fits with Israel's goal of depopulating Gaza. How long have they been repeating that 32,000 dead number anyway? Seems like the count has been stuck there for awhile.

Re: US passes bill to ban TikTok unless Chinese owner sells platform
BUT, along your vein, the safer thing for the US government to do would be to declare 'any company working with TIKTOK, in any capacity, will be investigated for being an US Security threat'. (I can also see them 'any individual workng with Tiktok....) Now, instead of those nice legal protections e...

Re: Colorado Supreme Court Removes Trump from State Ballot
I was wrong:
The Court didn't reject this 6-3 or 5-4 -it was 9-0!
This scheme to kick Trump off the ballot was every bit as fucktarded as the efforts to remove Obama from the ballot, only the GOP didn't bet the ranch on it succeeding.

Is 6 million+ sizable enough for you? That's how many have fled the country so far. If the war is already lost, or at least unwinnable, I'd rather see every soul left in Ukraine fleeing into the EU. Better a life in exile than death by shell or bullet. I don't think a long deadly stalemate is ever ...
