LOL I am using the definition of the words he used. Now, any luck on that previous request I made.

I never said war was legal and given my views on the use of war as a political tool, seriously doubt I ever will.

Could be but that doesn't change the point I made

My point is that annexation over time and history involves invasion. Please let me know of an annexation that didn't involve invasion and occupation by troops. ''Under international law, annexation is when one country forcibly asserts control and sovereignty over another country's territory. This usually follows military occupation. Annexation is unilateral'' https://www.economist.com/the-economist-explains/2022/09/30/what-is-annexation 'Tis to laugh

Oh yes of course, all those annexations over history that didn't involve invasions...how could I forget them.

From the OP headline "Russia has plans to annex Belarus" Duh...

Truth hurts eh...so you go back to your deflection strategies.

nope.

Disagree all you like, that is your prerogative. Doesn't change the fact brexit is not turning out well at all.

No one is, however the poster I quoted doesn't want brexit mentioning as the economic disaster it is becomes ever clearer.

Pointing out how it is damaging the UKs economy is highly relevant to this thread.

Of course it is

Ah huh...

Pesky foreigners

Russia hasn’t, not so sure about you though.

Don’t like Cruz but have to say, I agree with the sentiment expressed in this statement.

Just losing is enough to get on that list.

The charity worker didn’t say or imply that in the article you have posted. I wonder if she said any such thing anywhere.

Why does it matter where posters are commenting from? I notice you don’t use this argument against those Thailand residents supporting brexit and supporting your line of argument. Hypocrisy much?

With the battering he's taking in Ukraine, I really doubt putin has any inclination to invade any country again.

I’m teetotal and my reaction is still so what? It’s there choice and it is not for you to judge them.

Musks neuralink company now under investigation for animal cruelty. Apparently musk is pushing hard to get his chip to the market first, mistakes being made because of the pressure being put on employees and animals being put down because of this. hard core doesn’t seem to work there then… https://www.reuters.com/technology/musks-neuralink-faces-federal-probe-employee-backlash-over-animal-tests-2022-12-05/

Good, you admit brexit has made the situation worse. Progress for you.

I have not made any comment on whether he is racist or not.. You have made claims but, beyond pointing out to you that he is a product of his environment, I have not commented either way.
