Is there wiggle wording here? For example, would the Supreme Court be like “welllllll the dispute isn’t with the US”

The seats are haptic too. It takes forever to render the graphics apparently so maybe that’s why - not playback but rendering. Apparently After Effects will only go up to 12k?
I’m not super technical but I have been to the Sphere. It’s awesome.
“Oh yeah? Well I’ll make my own NATO. With blackjack! And hookers!”
To be honest though it’s happening everywhere - Canada and the US have had cases of this too. They got super mad when our PM called them out on it.
We would have to solve it through sanctions / diplomatic action, but that’s politically sticky right now, at least for the US and Canada.
And we still get idiots saying “I don’t understand why we’re sending billions of dollars to foreign countries.”
These are the same “secure the border” people.
It hurts my brain make it make sense.
I drive this road a lot. There are moose warning signs often in the park.
I avoid driving early in the morning or after sundown on this road for exactly this reason.
He knows he can’t so he needs to pick some distractions.
Step 3b. Kick out Al Jazeera, the (only?) news organization still reporting from the ground that would be critical of what you’re about to do
I don’t think CNN would even report on this if it didn’t have some truth to it.
The Intercept, a pretty good source, alleges that CNN runs all of their Gaza/Israel coverage by their Jerusalem team, subject to the IDF’s censor, prior to publication. They’re SUPER Israel slanted.
In the coming days I fully expect them to blame Hamas for it or something in a “quit hitting yourself” type of way.
You are right: CNN is terrorist propaganda - the IDF are terrorists too, after all.
I have real trouble with how the media one sides this whole thing in Israel’s favour.
Where is the reporting on what is being said at Israeli protests? I’m sure there is also some vile shit going on there, but the media doesn’t dare to report negatively on Israel with the same rabid fervour they do Palestine.
A large scale conflict like that would have economic and security implications for the rest of the world. Nothing exists in isolation.
It’s a lot of processed bread / carb products and very little protein.
Here’s the thing too - there was an interview on the news in my country with an Israeli legal expert on sexual assault. She was pleased with the UN report investigating Hamas’ sexual assaults.
When asked if there would be a similar UN investigation for Palestinians, she said she didn’t see why the UN needed to because Palestine has its own agencies on the ground who can investigate.
Except the media also tells us not to believe anything UNWRA says because of Hamas involvement with UNWRA.
How is that fair? The Palestinian civilians are caught in an impossible trap.
Yeah because the US is the ally of my country. Geopolitically if you’re from a BRICS nation it’s not a concern. NATO and 5 eyes nations aren’t supportive of an ambitious China expanding influence and territory.
It is just common sense. Nations never do things for just one reason. Possession is 9/10ths of the law - if they fill Antarctica with their facilities they can later claim they have so many facilities they should just govern Antarctica. Not a bad strategic move in times of global warming.
It’s an assumption that intelligent life unknown to us is space faring.
You just know Russia’s statement back to the US about this is going to be “no u.”
The conservatives in Canada have been going wild over carbon pricing.
The current government recently removed carbon taxes on home heating oil for the Maritimes, where home heating oil is used a lot, to make things more affordable during the cold winter months.
The conservatives are collectively screaming that this should be evenly applied to everyone and that home heating carbon pricing (but really all carbon pricing) should be removed. And that the PM is only doing this to retain votes in the maritimes.
Because this is a hot button issue, the conservatives are trying to claim that this legislation makes Ukraine agree to implement a carbon tax, but as is often the case with conservatives, this isn’t reality at all. In reality if I recall correctly, Ukraine needs to put in measures to reduce carbon emissions. This is something they have already agreed to do to be part of the EU.
Fascist Milhouse, the opposition leader, just wanted to spin the issue into a culture war topic that touches on a lot of things he’s been yelling about like affordability (he has no plan to improve this).
The last part is purely my conjecture: I would not be surprised if he is cozy with Russia. He was cozy with the “Freedom” Convoy in Canada that conveniently spun up right as Russia invaded Ukraine. The troll farms on Reddit were heavily commenting/ arguing/ advancing the cause of the Convoy, and Facebook groups/propaganda about it was thick. I notice that conservatives in Canada use Facebook groups like “Canada Proud” and “Ontario Proud” to advance their causes and these spin up like crazy around election time. These groups have dubious ownership at best and I suspect are foreign influence operations. Interestingly for a while the conservatives were chomping at the bit to investigate foreign interference in Canada’s election but hmmm oddly wanted to ignore Russia and focus on China instead. If you’re squeaky clean wouldn’t you want to focus on all foreign interference, no matter the source?
This, imo is also why they were trying to tie the previous speaker of the House’s dumb decision to honour a Ukrainian war vet (oops he fought on the side of Germany) to = Ukraine supports Nazis/the PM supports Nazis. That’s not reality and it was a dumb oversight by the speaker of the house and his office who has nothing to do with the PM. But I do recall that one of Russia’s favourite attacks on Ukraine is that they are Nazis so this line of attack by the conservatives here in Canada seems questionable at best.
TLDR send help, Canadians are falling for the lies of a fascist shitbird
Not a lawyer or American but here’s the text of the law. I’m guessing it depends on how you define dispute, controversy and whether is “with” the US, or whether this constitutes “defeating the measures of.”
Playing devil’s advocate I could see an argument of he’s just looking for alternative solutions in America’s best interest.
