I am trying to focus on posting source documents, as opposed to someone else’s reporting on source documents.
I believe they are going to attack the moment China can or does not want to stop them anymore.
Considering China’s whole military has recently been shown to be stripped bare by corruption from the top to the bottom, China’s power in the world is shaken. They could pivot to letting DPRK off leash a little bit, as a threat to step aside and let DPRK do what they want with the nuclear weapons they absolutely have, now on missiles that can reach the west coast of the US.

Nobody said they weren’t.
Good lord, remember when “Trump tried to buy Greenland” was the most ridiculous news story?
That must be why they dropped all those 2000 lb bombs all over south Gaza after they urged civilians to go there for safety. And why things are escalating in the West Bank, where Hamas isn’t.
“Defending itself” is a very generous description of what Israel is doing.
So this guy was interviewed in 2020, where he says he came to Russia looking for his birth mother, found her via a TV show, liked it in Russia, decided to stay there. Russia invaded Crimea in 2014, that was already known when he went there and decided to stay. Russia invaded Ukraine in Feb 2022, over a year at least since he’d been there, and he didn’t leave: not at that moment, and not at any moment as Russia kept on with its war. We don’t know exactly when he was arrested, but it seems that the US State Dept found out about it about a month ago.
I’m not saying the charges are fair, and I’m not saying that Russia isn’t just trying to use this guy as a bargaining chip. But this situation really seems like one that could have been avoided before it got to this point. Pretty sure the State Dept would have helped him leave before it came to this, if that’s what he wanted. That really doesn’t make him a super valuable chip.
One too many.
Let me guess, they’ve “summoned” the ambassador to an important meeting in a 9th floor hotel room with an ample balcony and no awnings.
Looks a lot like my Aussiedoodle when he was little. It’s definitely a doodle of some kind.
I was talking to a relative about Temu the other day, “How can they sell shit so cheap? Like, there’s got to be slavery involved somewhere.”
Bunch of top brass got pulled out after some of the corruption was discovered. Like rockets fueled with water.
