I wonder what the long term plan here was? Seize a patch of land through violent means, then what? Just assume the government will let you keep it?

I feel a lot has been lost in translation there.

You just copied the original headline, this isn’t on you.

Fucking legendary.

What was the insult, watermelon seller?

Suicide, or spend the rest of your life in a Russian prison?

Yeah, entirely possible this was a genuine suicide.

I’m sure Epstein provided this guy with little girls. When that comes out, who knows.

Until now, the fact that the rest of the civilised world would wreck their economy through sanctions has stopped them doing that.

So pay $50 then.

Everything on the NZ list is illegal pretty much anywhere in the world though.

No golden showers for the Auzzies though.

What “broad restrictions” is NZ and Australia under?

Putting a Fatwa on the guy in command of the B2s seems unwise, I have no doubt the USA could kill him if they wanted.

The voter sentiment that got them this far isn’t going to go away, is it?

The F35 is a global product, with quite a few countries involved in manufacturing. I do think Europe and the UK could keep them flying without the US.

Hell, Iran kept their F14s going for many decades without US support.

I think the advantage there is they don’t need a full airfield to operate from, but if the UK has lost all it’s airfields, somebody’s getting nuked.

I’m aware. Do you think these guys want to be martyrs?

No, but they can certainly kill the Ayatollahs, and I don’t think they’re willing to die for the cause.

They quite famously killed the guy in charge, is what I’m getting at.

How many senior Taliban members are still alive from those days? The organisation persists, most of the leadership didn’t.

I really don’t think Iran’s leaders are that foolish, after what happened last time someone did that.

Who’s going to back up Iran though? Maybe the houthis, but they barely count.
