They could try not constantly funding and training groups commiting terrorist acts.

The US will sink the entire island before China is allowed to occupy it.

Likud doesn’t maintain a separate army under their own flag.

Successful immigration requires assimilation, which does require effort from both sides.

Calling it unilateral restraint is absurd though. It’s like bragging about cutting out Coke from your diet while drinking a Pepsi.

That’s a weird statement for a country that’s been actively supporting multiple militias in the region for decades.

+50 citizen score.

Your assuming those involved are remotely rational. Once you get to the point where someone is willing to kill themselves to kill others it doesn’t really matter about anyone else’s strength and resolve.

It may have got mentioned in passing in relation to the nukes, but most people only remember those.

The middle east only spirals to a world war if other countries start their own shit hoping that the existing conflict is too distracting. The US putting boots on the ground in the middle east is a great chance for China to start shit in Taiwan or south Korea.

The saving grace is there aren’t that many countries that can escalate anything global besides the US and China. Russia seems fully occupied in Ukraine, and Europe is still a joke for military power currently.

Non-state militias attacking a country is infinite casus belli for a state to retaliate.

South Africa has been far more helpful to Palestine than any amount of missiles launched at civilians will ever be.

Warsaw would make less sense. This was a strike in Lebanon against a Lebanon based terrorist group or political party if you prefer. That parties primary action has been from within Lebanon. There was no third country here.

Hezbollah is at war with Israel, their general getting killed near Iranian officers is problematic. Just as it would be if a Ukrainian general was killed by Russia while meeting with a US Colonel.

The US has supported Ukraine through the whole invasion, but if Russian attacks started killing US officers in close proximity to Ukrainian officials it would be problematic. It would give Russia cause to further escalate.

That’s what is happening here. Iran is getting caught being overly involved. It opens them to more direct action against them, which is the whole point of a proxy war, not having direct involvement.

A big part of fighting a proxy war is having deniability. Iran is really struggling with that right now.

2030 is insanely fast for no oil, it’s also way more aggressive than what the UK is planning. Net 0 emissions is different than no oil. Net 0 emissions means you still use a bunch of oil but claim planting a bunch of trees or an algae farm cancels it out. Net 0 emissions doesn’t mean stop using oil based products like plastic either. No oil is totally a different demand.

Also UK doesn’t plan on net 0 emissions until 2050, 2035 is just massive reduction in transportation emissions.

They are supposed to float, just not always on the surface.

Successfully rehabilitating the wolf population to this point should be a moment of celebration. Assuming the goal was a sustainable population.

Having a physical HQ is a huge advantage for a country to have here.
