If someone intentionally goes to be a human shield for an invading military, they are an enemy combatant by definition.
If Russia built apartment buildings in territory that they occupied in Ukraine and then moved in volunteer civilians from Russia, no one would question what those people are.
I guess this is a step forward. Liberals used to support evil in reality, like the Iraq war, but then they would use fantasy to virtue signal that they are actually the good guys by not supporting the Empire in Star Wars or something like that....
This would give the state immense power to ban any kind of non-profit organization that they don’t agree with. Even if they don’t go after all the left-wing organizations, that threat hanging above their heads would seriously limit the scope of their mission and most would probably be forced to remain very small and...
He rolled on the ground, unloaded a full clip into his own police car where there was a HANDCUFFED SUSPECT and yelled things like “shots fired” and “I’m hit”...
I just love how he instantly unloaded the full clip into his own car. Even if there really was a gunshot, just randomly shooting your own car doesn’t seem like a good idea.
tldr: In 2002 and 2003 combined, there were 9 terror attacks with 23 casualties across all of Africa. After the US war on terror campaign in Africa, things are now much much worse. And it looks like this stat doesn’t include numbers from direct US acts of terror, like the destruction of Libya in 2011....
I don’t really care about the stupid “classified documents stuff”, I just think that it is funny that POTUS will not be charged because he is too cognitively impaired....
Well Biden was just as complicit and they love him. Most libs supported the Iraq war anyway. Among the few libs who didn’t, they mostly opposed the Iraq war because GW Bush was in charge of it. When the Dems took over the House in 2006 and were expected to win in 2008 as well, the remaining liberals mostly dropped the pretense of not supporting the war and were just mad that Bush “screwed it up”. And Biden is one of the main guys who screwed it up, he literally helped create ISIS by getting Chalabi appointed as president of Iraq even after he lost the election - but the US was the occupying power so Biden was able to do whatever he wanted.
I loved Bernie in 2016 and 2020, Bernie and M4A were big reasons I moved leftward, but I’m disappointed by how big of a tankie Bernie has been about Israel.

I mean, if Bernie won in 2016 or 20, he would be a better president than Biden or even better than he is as a Senator right now, because he would owe his position (and reelection chances) to the left donor/activist base. And a bunch of liberals would probably support a 3rd party candidate against him, so even as an incumbent he would probably have big problems with getting reelected. Right now, he is a Senator, if he wants to run again in Vermont he can easily do that and he doesn’t need the left base anymore, since he is not running for president ever again.
So instead he can support whatever policy positions he actually wants, OR he is trying to win favor with Biden in exchange for some small policy crumbs in some other area (something that he should know doesn’t work with any liberal politicians, but again, I guess he is just old). In both cases, I disagree with him ideologically, but he is an old guy who is probably retiring from politics soon, so whatever. The left should not be too hung up on individuals, remember that politicians are just a tool to implement policy. The really sad thing is that it will be harder and harder for a Sanders-style candidate (someone who wouldn’t actually owe his position to big corporations) to even run for the nomination ever again, especially since big money interests kind of figured out they “only” need to outspend left-wing candidates by around 3:1 and they’ve been very successful in recent elections.
We also provided targeting. There were a lot of double-tap strikes in that war! And we provided logistics like in-air refueling. Most importantly, the US was part of the genocidal starvation blockade. And when the Saudis realized they can no longer continue the war in late 2022, Biden was the one pressuring them to not end it. But China’s diplomacy won out.
