I think US oil interests might have a thing or two to say about declaring Iraq not a country.
The US could be in a leopards ate my face situation if Israel pursues that line of thought into taking destructive military actions in Iraq.
The problem is getting the pictures to work from. People who don’t want to be found aren’t giving the CIA pictures of their locations, and I’d imagine the CIA already knows what road signs look like in different countries, or where certain mountains and other features are.
The problem is getting the pictures. It’s intel collection, not processing.
Oh, if you’re just discussing things to play theoretical games, then I’m not interested. I play devils advocate to try to find practical means of intervention.
That’s okay, thanks anyways, bye.
The US was at war with Hitler, and has given other genocidal regimes weapons.
That’s not where my interest lays, it lays in practical, and applicable solutions.
You don’t have any, I don’t have any.
But also, if you’re trying to apply US law, then they don’t have to be a functional democracy - just recognized as one by the US.
So that’s a naive approach.
Both, it’s a Netenyahu problem and it’s attached to conspiracy theories around the assassination of the guy before him. The right wing captured cultural territory there that the progressive left have never been able to shift back, and it resulted in a lot of the population shifting to the right.
To play devil’s advocate, leahy law;
…prohibits the U.S. Department of State and Department of Defense from providing military assistance to foreign security force units that violate human rights with impunity.
But the fact that Israel is a democracy, suggests there are reprocessions, eg. Netenyahu could lose the election, and even face reprocessions from the next elected leader. So that’s not acting “with impunity”.
Israel has taken measures to make their genocide look considered (eg. Dropping flyers, naming bombing targets)… And to some extent, anyone wanting to claim they’re acting woth impunity (although it’s highly unlikely they’ll ever see reprocessions) - will have similar issues to those faced at Nuremberg, where the US didn’t want to invent laws to accuse them of being guilty of or having violated (as that would look like a kangaroo court, or future crime)…
…and unfortunately, due to the US having it’s own patchy human rights record, they avoid being a signatatory to international courts like The Hague.
So yeah, your claim wouldn’t be substantiated. It’s not that simple, you may as we’ll be claiming we can “reform our way our of Capitalism”… That’s a nice idea (as Leahy Law is), but they’re just not practically applicable.
Which is why I directed people to the “Rules for Rulers” video (by CPG grey), because it explains these basics to Socialists who basically live in these fantasy land conceptions of politics.
Of course fantasy land conceptions get upvotes, reality checks get downvotes, it’s a great system, designed to cause mental stagnation and “apathy through idealism” in the masses.
That vote was made in the Obama era. There’s a 35 billion dollar funding scheme for Israel that’s bin full swing.
Stopping it would require a lot of changes across multiple stratas of government and legal procedures.
… it’s not as simple as “the president” or “the party” can just stop a long term international set of contracts across industries and government agencies and departments.
The video “Rules for Rulers” by YouTuber CPGGrey covers some of this.
There’s a this American Life episode about this, starts off being about the birthday paradox… Gives a good run down of how voter fraud has been disproven as an issue:

The name Wendy didn’t exist until the book Peterpan. Every part of language is made up, even the names.
I’m 22 and 240 months… And I wonder why not small USB sticks with m4a files on them… Maybe some behind the scenes footage and a digital poster or message/manifesto?
I think it’s obvious that Putin has to be killed in the name of global political stability.
The question is; can their desire to appear to be doing the right thing be leveraged into making them actually do the right things thus inculcating their identities into making a genuine shift.
Also that particular Senator is from a particularly stupid minority party owned by a billionaire.
He did pick up on the Putin gaffe and immediately corrected himself and explained that his enemies have been on his mind lately.
He didn’t correct calling Kamala Harris Trump.
He’s been known for making gaffes since he was Obama’s vice president. From his Wikipedia page:
The remark revived Biden’s reputation for gaffes.[227][221][228]
Those sources are from 2009.
Journalist and TV anchor Wolf Blitzer has called Biden loquacious;[692] journalist Mark Bowden has said that he is famous for “talking too much”, leaning in close “like an old pal with something urgent to tell you”.[298] He often deviates from prepared remarks[693] and sometimes “puts his foot in his mouth”.[169][694][695] Biden has a reputation for being prone to gaffes[696] and in 2018 called himself “a gaffe machine”.[697][698] The New York Times wrote that Biden’s “weak filters make him capable of blurting out pretty much anything.”[169]
He has struggled with a stutter most of his life, which he learned to cover up.
Most countries are corrupt backwards dictatorships… So that might be the best standard to use.
Or through blackmail.
I get that your version of the quote may have been too modified to recognize.
…also, not exactly a “cool guy move” of you to post this, especially without removing the account details. So this guy could have had a bad day or something, and any extra grief they’re getting because of this post is on you bud.
There are no winners in this little war over nothing, and that’s not something to be proud of.
