These medications don't really address your condition, but rather just treat symptoms. IMO, the fear is not really about short-term negatives, but about it turning into drug abuse, without actually tackling the root cause. Such drugs s

I can't wrap my head around why you insist on warning someone who is armed, shooting at you, and clearly is not willing to surrender. No one does that. I don't get what you suggest, that their government should treat their service

And yet they are "terrorists", but thugs who use firearms against police, and raid armory's are simply "protestors".

It's a rather bad faith statement. What exactly had built your current level of awareness of Russia's peacekeeping practices? Also, no idea where you got that "long history of dealing with rebellions and uprisings", Russ

Media coverage, mostly. Especially one going from the state-owned (or corporate-owned with political affiliation, in case of US) media. It is really the best litmus paper there is.

All nations have people who have grivances, the trick is to find a proper ignition point and pour in some gas at the right moment. And it's not like it's something momentarlity simplistic, like a terrorist attack. It takes years o

It completely redifines it's meaning, as it implies a surrender order to comply to? I mean, it's not that we can safely throw away defining statements and retain the meaning of the message, especially given that we discuss a small

Why did you cut the quote? > “I have given the order to law enforcement and the army to shoot to kill without warning,” > “Those who don’t surrender will be eliminated.”
