Some US states do allow private criminal prosecution. New Jersey allows them with approval of a judge and prosecutor. Other states allow private citizens to file charges directly with a magistrate - I think maybe Wyoming or Montana? It&#x27

That's somewhat person dependent. I was a heavy smoker (3-4 packs a day) for several years, but quitting cold turkey was very easy for me. I basically had no cravings unless I was drinking, and those went away after a month. I realize

Just to expand on that - we sent multiple millions of tons of aid - probably $120-150 billion, in current dollars. Thousands of tanks, thousands of planes, plus trains (locomotives and cars), food, fuel, anmmo, explosives, and industrial su

The countries have every right to be upset, but this is standard practice and everyone does it. There's a reason why counterintelligence agencies exist. My comment was a preemptive response to the inevitable naive and/or grandstan
