Europe didn't seize them, the EU and US froze them, and the dividends of those assets in the EU are being seized. There's a big difference, the US actually seizing any country's gold would be much more serious.

Of course I'm serious, why would my age affect how I feel about a soldier dying invading another country? But you are right that probably in the big context of things a POW is better for negotiating an ealier cease fire, which would ul

Venezuela is in the eastern hemisphere, just like Cuba, and it seems they want to control that entire part of the world. Iran would be of no concern to the US if not for Israel.

Yes, they have kept up with inflation, and that is the problem. Manufactured goods like Lego bricks should fall in price through innovation in processes, scale, etc. What does raise higher than the average inflation should be be labor-inten

I never heard of the above, but I also have my own method that I discovered one night on some tinnitus forum: 1. Straight body, drop your head all the way down, chin to your chest. 2. Place the palm of your hands on your ears, blocking them

No it isn't. For example in my EU country I can see the list of all websites blocked, and all of them are for piracy/copyright infringement and illegal betting (legal betting is allowed, but must register and pay taxes). That and

Cloudflare could refuse to host illegal material or make it available in Spain. If they cannot or will not, this was the best solution the courts arrived at. Other Cloudflare clients could also decide to host elsewhere for Spanish traffic i

That's the good thing about police states, no crime! (except state-sanctioned crimes against humanity of course)

Trump is so incompetent he has killed any chance for far right politicians to be elected for the next decades. And even them hate him now due to Greenland.

What authority did the world have to trial the Nazis at Nuremberg? Countries are going to get called on crimes against humanity, simple as.

Israel did not and doesn't appear to be planning to prosecute Netanyahu for crimes against humanity, just for corruption.

If for example Putin was overthrown and had to flee Russia, and happens to fly over an ICC signatory, he could rightfully be arrested and brought to justice. What is the alternative? CIA assassinations and kangaroo courts?
