I don't get all the mass hysteria. If netanyahu and the other guy are innocent of the crimes they are accused of they will get off, won't they? Seems to me that all the vocal opponents of the ICC think they must be guilty, LOL.

Was the ICC only doing the "right thing" when it was just Africans and Middle East characters that were being arrested? Is it different when it's a western ally? No wonder so many people's of the world hate the west, with it's hypocrisy and forever wars.

IMO ICC rulings are binding on signatories to the ICC. Israel killed over 40,000 Palestinians. Seems a more than adequate pay back. Now it's just blood lust, IMO.

I thought it was mandatory if a country had signed on to the ICC. If countries just made up their own rules it'd be chaos............................... oh wait! I used to support Johnson, but he just lost 1 supporter.

It'd be funny if it wasn't so sad. Hey Zaluzhny, where did you get the missiles you just sent into Russia? For sure it wasn't down the local hardware store. Aren't there a load of foreigners fighting for Ukraine, but Russia isn't allowed to do the same, apparently. It's amazing that so many can be so openly hypocritical, and be taken seriously.

Do we know for sure that was Biden? It might have been his handlers. I suspect he hasn't been the one in charge for a while now.

Agreed. Seems that as long as you are a "friend" it's OK to invade a sovereign nation and destroy it will nilly. Not OK if Russia.

Apparently you are a committed follower of government ordained news sources. 17 thousand dead children are not an acceptable "collateral damage" by any civilised nation.

2 thoughts about the disturbances ( and who knows how much propaganda is in the reporting? ) 1/ Anarchists and other such trouble makers often piggy back onto peaceful protests to cause trouble. 2/ it could be a false flag operation to cause exactly the reaction displayed on this thread. We live in troubled times and I have a lot of difficulty accepting the official narrative. The misinformation coming out in Amsterdam recently was an eye opener.

I doubt much qualifies as "news". IMO more likely opinion pieces.

On that I am in agreement with you 100%. Seems strange that they are still blathering on on AN instead of in a volunteer brigade in Kursk. I guess it's much better to let other people do the hard yards.

Only female cops were like that in my happily limited interactions with British cops ( they were nightmares writ large ). My partner was a JP and I escorted her to a "do" of the judiciary. I never met so many out of touch with reality old bumblers in my life as in that room. They sit in judgement of people that they have zero understanding of.

Rubbish, as the person required to step in if the POTUS is unable to do his job her duty to the American people that pay her wages is that she shouldn't be hiding. If she wants time to spend with her family she should have declined to be VP. The same goes for Biden, but given his lacking intellectual ability it's probably best that he hides as much as possible. The real question is why is he still POTUS?

I don't have contempt for the rank and file police that probably joined up to do the right thing. I have contempt for the top cops that have allowed the politicians to make them the fiasco that they are now. Courts are a different matter, and I join you in your contempt. Sooner an AI replaces all the lawyers and judges the better.

The Democrats were the party of slave holders, but that has as little to do with the topic as your post

Me too.

They haven't conscripted women, the elderly and children yet. They are not done fighting Americas proxy war till only the politicians and their families are left.

Given the entire idea that one side or the other has the ability to eliminate the planet as a host for humanity and most other species is insane in itself, so why expect politicians to be rational, when faced with the ultimate insanity? If the Vogons had to decide if humanity is worth saving, or being exterminated as a threat to the galaxy, I wonder what they would decide?

Pathetic or what? I'm on record on here saying I'm against the war, ergo why would I support either side? Posters that are particularly vocal about supporting Ukraine might want to join them though. They might even make it to the front lines before the end happens. Likely on January 21. Even better, the guys in Kursk need all the help they can get before they are wiped out.

Large rocket attack on israel by Hezbollah. It's just not fair that they can fire back, unlike Gaza. It's a bit weird though. Didn't netanyahu say a while back that Hezbollah were leaderless and in the process of being destroyed for ever. Strange then that they are still capable of launching a large scale attack. Perhaps netanyahu was wrong, shock and horror, say it ain't so! I guess the people from the north of israel won't be going back home for a while then. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/world/hezbollah-rockets-tel-aviv-rcna181564 JERUSALEM/BEIRUT — Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement fired heavy rocket barrages at Israel on Sunday, and the Israeli military said houses had been destroyed or set on fire near Tel Aviv, after a powerful Israeli airstrike killed at least 29 people in Beirut the day before.

Don't know about him, but I happily avoided having brats children. Never a regret for it either.

As usual, nothing about WHAT should be done. I suspect they have discovered they have a cushy job that every so often they get to junket around the world and gob at each other in some exotic location, all at taxpayer expense, and all they have to do is put out a statement without any specifics, demanding loadsacash without any indication of why they need so much or what it would be spent on. Who wouldn't want a job like that? At the Brazil conference, one of the highlights for myself was the spectacle of a man from India no less ( one of the most polluting countries on the planet ) complaining that 250 billion $ wasn't enough for "rich nations" to cough up for the scam. Hand over a trillion $ and hey presto, wave a wand and the weather would go back to 1950s, or something like that. For the benefit of the humour bereft, there is a liberal dose of sarcasm in that.

Agree. Strangely ( not really ), the usual suspects never bring up overpopulation as a major driver of man made pollution. IMO it's just Gaia culling a species that has been very bad for the planet. All this "renewable energy" talk is only rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic as it slips beneath the icy waters.

Plugging the woke propaganda. The big conference in Brazil just ended with the usual suspects complaining that "rich" nations only pledged 250 billion $ and not the trillion they wanted. IMO it's all a huge scam intended to make wealthy nations give ( no conditions ) lotsacash which would IMO end up in certain pockets. So far, they have been a bit lacking in exactly how they want the money to be spent. Perhaps that is because they have no idea.

Is it Biden? IMO he doesn't know the time of day, and it's more likely down to his handlers.
