KCNA via Xinhua reports on 3 separate recent nights drones dropped propaganda leaflets in Pyongyang. They’ve accused the south’s military of this though personally I put even money on it being those anti-north propaganda groups (often but not exclusively Christian flavored) who are somewhat independent of the puppet government.

India of course wants to compete against China’s electric car market. The west will likely not allow them to displace domestic manufacturers in the US but the US may coerce them into opening plants in the US using their lithium supply to allow their brands to penetrate, the US also I would guess promises them to help drive out Chinese brands from global markets and to give those markets to the Indian firms or at least that’s how the Indians will understand it and probably the desire of the US (with an intent to eventually take control of those companies or at least ensure western bourgeoisie own a huge chunk to earn most of the profits).

Regarding China’s rise and partnerships with African states. While there are clear-headed leaders who understand the history of colonialism and reach for China, there are just as many mercenary leaders and those of a comprador, western-boot-licking nature in Africa who will taken some token debt relief in exchange for selling out their people and resources to the west. So China’s ascendancy through win-win cooperation is by no means guaranteed. For that to work both sides must have long-term visions and understandings of history which is something liberals are terrible at in both directions (past/future).

Let us recall history and remember that the USSR was starting to make inroads with former colonies and victim nations of imperialism after the second world war and that the US used coups, installation of brutal dictators, ethnic conflicts they fanned the flames of, compradors, threats of economic sanction and later in the century terrorism and extremism to blunt this type of independent thinking that would have helped the USSR. That hope has been crushed before as detailed for example in William Blum’s excellent “Killing Hope” book and in fact was systemically killed in the 50s through 70s with a new wave with new tactics of broad regional destabilization based off for example the Grand Chessboard type of thinking really taking root from the 70s to 90s.

The road for China is not as smooth of sailing as many like to sell it here. The US still has a lot of potency and strength coming right off the back of its era as a unipolar hegemon. That strength exists economically for coercion and sanctions, in military terms including its NATO navy and air force which polices the world and can enforce sanctions (also including hundreds of bases across the globe in nations that submit themselves to the US boot from Jordan to those in Africa itself even with the loss of the AES/sahel states), as well as dollar hegemony, and the fact they are the gatekeepers with the final say for access to the advanced and wealthy markets of the US/Canada, EU, and their occupied Asian vassals of Korea and Japan, as well as their southern hemisphere long-time colonies Australia/New Zealand which is a part of the economic strength but one that bears underlining.

The population of China+Russia is 1.5 billion but both are experiencing demographic problems from lowered birth rates so that’s expected to fall (the west by contrast is all too happy to bolster its populations via immigration for purposes of exploitation and domestic labor discipline so isn’t as vulnerable to the kinds of sharp drops Russia/China may be) and we must remember though China has done a great deal in lifting hundreds of millions out of absolute poverty and creating a thriving middle class that several hundreds of millions of those people are not consumers for various goods due to still lacking economic mobility as well as being adapted to say village as opposed to city life. A young Chinese person in a city is going to buy all kinds of goods but a Chinese person who is in their 70s, who grew up in poverty, who lives a simpler life in a village and who isn’t terribly well off even if not in absolute poverty isn’t necessarily a customer for an electric car company or for many other types of consumer goods that China produces. The real amount of people that China would have in a decoupling and 2-camps situation between themselves, Russia, and a few friends like Vietnam as a market for its production of consumer goods is likely more in the 800 million to 1 billion range which puts it roughly on par with the combined west of USA, Canada, EU/NATO, Australia, NZ, Japan, occupied Korea.

So then you have a situation of two roughly matched populations with one having the benefits of pre-existing hegemony and power and concentrated wealth as well as access to India a population of 1 billion to exploit selling western brands and making cheap goods for export to the west. So the road for China and BRICS (well BR*CS+ because India is all too happy to sell out to the west while pretending to be shrewd and getting deals) is a potentially rough one. We are looking at the strong possibility of a second full cold war or echoes of one at least with strong economic and trade barriers put up by the west and effectively two blocs plus bystanders who lean one way or the other.

There are positive headwinds compared to last time around after WW2 of course. The US is no longer an empire in its ascendancy phase as it was, it has (hopefully) peaked (if it hasn’t it means the destruction and looting of China and barbarism reigning forever over humankind), there seem to be many in the global south who’ve learned the lessons of last century and want cooperation with China. China is exceptionally strong and well developed, the US is looking exceptionally winded in military technology for instance, the gap is widening somewhat in China’s favor.

But the US and co can and still are going to put up a tough fight and China is still left contending with the fact that many in the west would rather nuke the whole world than let it fall to communism, than give up white supremacy and their own primacy and rule and thus left placating them and trying to stall for time and put off the confrontation and avoid provoking them too much. From such a position China cannot exercise its full strength.

Are you perhaps thinking of “buggary” which referred to any “unnatural” sex act. That included all anal sex, sex with animals. Really anything in theory but PIV sex between a man and woman. Not so much a biblical thing as something in western law derived from Christianity.

In different places it’s had different connotations and legal definitions though and in reforms of the western legal code its definition underwent various reforms, some progressive, others not so.

But that has nothing to do with biblical definitions or doctrine from over 5 centuries ago.

Considering the bible has instances of girls (underage) to be taken for the pleasure of conquering men in god’s chosen army and considering it has a payment system and mandatory marriage of rapists to their victims I’m fairly confident that any condemnations of abusing children is merely a way of condemning homosexual man/boy acts which the Romans did practice and not Man/girl for instance.

Christianity going back to verified pre-European (Dead Sea scrolls) sources is a mixture of teachings, many socially reactionary and some progressive. Trying to make it approve of modern understandings of human sexuality (sexuality was seen in terms of acts not of attractions or being born a given way) when it’s so old is not likely to yield success as reactionaries who can read Ancient Greek and Aramaic will have points to score against such attempts.

He believes they remain secure even after the successful assassination of Nasrallah. He discussed in an interview with Judge Napolitano that the attack was the result of a humint breach (he saw the fact that Netanyahu approved it from the US the opportunity presenting itself through new intel) and stressed that it’s hard to get senior people to do things like never use cell phones (Note that an Iranian Republican Guard members were also killed in the same meeting; it’s possible the breach came from the Iran side).

This tracks with my thoughts.

What do people make of the fact that every time they do this and claim most penetrated and that they hit objectives on the ground causing destruction and then in the US it’s just denial, that 99% of them were stopped actually and the only ones that got through hit a Palestinian man walking his dog or some shit.

On the one hand I get they want to make the zionists look strong, but on the other wouldn’t it lend itself to greater urgency and frothing rage if they met the Iranian narrative half-way and said that actually a number got through and damaged a fighter plane or two and therefore this is why we must immediately approve another 500 billion for the arms manufacturers?

Is it just that the zionists cannot admit that the iron dome failed and the western sources have to tail them and repeat whatever they say verbatim despite it being contrary to the interests of the warmongers?

Or is Iran inflating its numbers a bit?

Because thinking about it, if Iran’s attack were to mostly fail or get intercepted and they don’t want escalation (clearly they don’t, all along they’ve been trying their hardest to back away) wouldn’t it be in their interests rather than admit their attack failed and that they have to up the ante to instead just lie, say it worked instead? That way they can save face and act like they achieved something while not actually really provoking the zionists much thus preventing escalation?

I don’t know what to believe here. There are too many parties who benefit from lies out of either end for me to decide. I’m sure they didn’t get 100% interception rate but Iran’s claims of taking out multiple F-35s also seems rather rosy.

AFAIK China’s opening up didn’t occur until the 80s or hit its stride until the 90s.

That Israel is not interested in compromise, only escalation, and that this is a fight to death – not just against Israel but against the West that sponsors Israel.

That Israel’s ideological extremism – its Jewish supremacism, and its endless craving for Lebensraum

I suppose those who would stand to suffer most from seeing this would be most reluctant to act but to me it’s been obvious based off the fact the leader of the zionist regime is very likely headed for prison and disgrace the moment the crisis ends that there are no off-ramps and never were. Add on that the nature of the colony is to do just this and its simply speeding up its long-term goals to exploit a crisis that they probably let happen (Oct 7) on purpose for their own ends and well the picture is pretty clear. We’re basically a year in and by the time they started antagonizing Iran it became obvious they were fishing for a larger fight to draw the US in.

So not fighting them is pointless in my opinion. Conserving strength only works if you can actually conserve it. If they start decapitating your leadership structure using unprecedented mass supply-chain interdiction terror attacks it’s time to get things into gear because they’ve declared war on you. You can’t conserve your strength against an enemy like this, you can only lie down before them while they murder all your leadership and anyone else they can and are great at identifying sadly as they are a very good hacking regime.

There are basically two choices here in light of the reality and one is to stop any antagonism of the zionist entity, stop firing rockets, stop trying to drive their settlers out, stop trying to tie up their forces in the north to help Hamas in the south and basically take off your militant clothes, bury your weapons and plan to revisit the matter in 4-5 years as otherwise you’re just lying down to be slaughtered which makes them stronger while you grow weaker. The other is to acknowledge the reality, acknowledge you’re in a life or death struggle, that by attacking them as they engage in a genocide and by virtue of them striking back and decapitating your leadership in a mass terrorist attack and to fully commit. To hunker down, to distribute command structures, to not wait for them but go on the offensive against them and their backers.

Those are the only two logical choices. I can see why Hassan Nasrallah didn’t move quickly, he struck me as a thoughtful man. I really can. He had such responsibility but the pager attack should have shown that they were not going to stop or back down or negotiate, that they had good intelligence, that they’d penetrated everything, that they probably knew everything including locations of command bunkers and that it was a now or never. At that point they’d tried to kill him and he and those around him couldn’t do enough to keep him alive from their second attack even knowing it was imminent. This is the tactical reality they exist in. But Nasrallah was a good man, a man who didn’t want to bring more bloodshed. And for it he was killed in a bunker that wasn’t enough to protect him, along with allegedly we are now learning an Iranian official.

I am deeply suspicious that the Iranian official led the zionists to where Nasrallah was, unwittingly of course. But it does raise an interesting if disturbing thought and that is what if there are those highly placed in the Iranian government who want to conspire with the zionist entity to remove their conservative and hard-liners. To sue for a secret peace with the entity as well as their backers by making sure all those who would get in the way of them lying down before the west would be out of the picture beforehand. There is no evidence for this as of yet and we shouldn’t really seriously consider it, but the fact is the zionists do have an incredible penetration of Iran on an intelligence level as well as that of the rest of the resistance and it’s a damn big problem.

People talk of the zionist entity’s fall being imminent, to the contrary I think they’ve not been stronger in some time. They’re butchering their enemies while those enemies stay their hand because the US is near at hand glaring all the while also lying and claiming peace will come soon to keep their hands stayed. Yes it might be the beginning of a shift of public opinion in the west against them but they could care less. And it is a problem for the latter end of this decade or next. The zionist public opinion apparatus is so strong and entrenched I wouldn’t be shocked that once the genocide is over their approval numbers go up and there’s never a growing movement in the west to boycott, divest, and sanction them. The far right will recruit from those disillusioned by this, spread actual anti-semitism which the zionists will be gleeful to see. It’s all going better to plan than it has in a long while for them. Public sentiment against them doesn’t matter, it just pulls their people together more cohesively and they see it as a tool to recruit more Jews from abroad to them.

I doubt it. Nothing so far has caused the resistance to lash out. I mean we are seeing escalation but it’s entirely driven by the zionist need to escalate.

I really doubt Iran is going to get involved, there isn’t going to be WW3, just more little people suffering from the genocidal violence of a white supremacist settler state.

Absolutely awful. He was a good man from all I read. I’m angry and frustrated. It shows the Zionists can and will get to anyone who resists them even someone deep in a bunker of vital importance and top security. It shows the area and the world they are strong and will punish those who challenge them and kill them without any doubt due to their extensive intelligence and infiltration. As they have done with indiscriminate terrorism with the pager attacks.

And still the resistance does nothing.

The Zionists have completely decapitated the command structure of Hezbollah and much of Hamas. They’ve murdered top Iranian commanders and still they sit on their hands.

What are they waiting for? What more could the US do other than inflict itself on civilians harder than the Zionists. They keep saying their response will come but who will plan it? As waiting has allowed the Zionists to kill most of the top leadership everywhere but Yemen. Within 6 months they’ll probably kill another high ranking Iranian because they can. And the genocide of Palestinians will continue. And the bombing of Lebanon into submission will continue.

It is disgraceful if this great man dies without being avenged, if all those who’ve died in the resistance are not avenged. If the Palestinian genocide is not answered.

I am so sick of this shit. Lebanon would be devastated in a war with the zionist entity but they are being anyways. Hezbollah should stop turning the other cheek. It’s obvious Benny is not going to stop until he gets a war or destroys his enemies because he’s going to prison once the crisis is over so he can only escalate. The US meanwhile is putting on a pathetic show chasing after him pretending to beg and plead for peace while having no intention of making them stop and being there to support them with weapons and money 100% of the way and the zionist entity knows it.

Hasan Nasrallah seems an intelligent, reasonable man from what I know of him. Restrained even. But what credibility does the axis of resistance have if they allow this to continue? It’s not like the US is going to force “israel” to stop. It’s not like they are going to stop on their own. They could just keep on pushing the goalposts until they actually succeed in decapitating and destroying most of the resistance outside of Iran with these attacks (all while the US sobs for calm and promises they’re on the right track to peace after a year of this genocide and aggression) or at least put them on such an awful foot that they can’t stand up very long in a war.

I increasingly believe it’s a question of whether they sit there and let themselves be destroyed to be seen as noble and peaceful victims who liberals can have a high opinion of and hope that somehow translates to a movement to actually isolate and destroy the zionist colony in the long-term (with hopes something happens in the medium-term that means the zionists eventually get tired of bombing after weakening their enemies badly and decide not to do any annexing today) OR to finally realize this isn’t going to be resolved peacefully except through their deaths or total submission to the zionist entity and they stand up and strike back hard. Which yes will probably draw the US in but could also (who knows) actually force the US hand and cause them to force the entity to stop and make peace.

I just don’t see a way out that doesn’t end with the genocide of Palestinians being completed plus most of the axis of resistance being devastated to the point of needing years to recover their operational abilities and all the while being under threat of infiltration and spying and more bombs put in electronics.

This is awful. I feel awful. I wish Russia would give Yemen some long-range weapons. I wish they’d give Lebanon some strong anti-air systems to take down the isn’treali air force which is the only thing allowing them to be terrorists with impunity. Shoot down the planes and they can’t do anything but use ground forces which will lose badly. That’s the real balance of power here and the real problem is those planes. Someone needs to give the axis of resistance the ability to down them en mass.

I’m positive they’re going to side with the west enough to matter in the coming struggle. Oh they’ll keep their options open, they’ll pretend to be “independent” because it makes the west court them more and lets them play both sides but when it comes down to it and the west gives them a knife to plant in China’s back for minimal benefit of their own they’ll do it in a heartbeat. They see their rise as tied to destroying China, as a zero-sum calculation, either they take industry from China and become a great power or China retains it and they get nothing.

They labor under the same kind of ignorance that the bourgeoisie of Russia had after the USSR was illegally dissolved, namely that they would be let into the big anglo bourgeoisie club and rise to the heights of it as equals. But that moment where they realize otherwise could be decades away, the west has utility in keeping them a country with a vast gulf between the workers and the wealthy and in keeping them thinking its in their own interest to side with the west enough of the time to cause troubles for China, for Russia, for the emerging anti-imperialist world order.

India is IMO a fair-weather enemy for the anti-imperialist bloc. They’re not like the US or Europe where there is little in common and a direct threat to their hegemony from the rise of BRICS+ but when the going gets tough they’ll assume a neutral pose or do some things to appeal to the anti-imperialist bloc before tacking back again towards sabotaging it.

It depends on what kind of mask. If you’re wearing an N95/KN94 mask then you’re protecting yourself (and if it doesn’t have a valve also others if you happen to have it) by filtering 95/94% of viral particles.

Though I agree it could attract unwanted attention and hassle in some areas. Even in a place like California I’ve been followed around stores for a minute or so for still masking by employees who I guess thought I was there to shoplift but I’ve never been seriously confronted about it. I’ve had a cowardly guy shout from a dozen feet away how I should take it off and some rambling nonsense but I just stared at him and he stormed off, I’ve had a handful of guys tell me it’s a shame I’m wearing it because they’d like to see my “pretty face” (ugh), but most people don’t say anything. I’m sure many anti-maskers resent me but given most of the public has joined them in giving up I think they’re content to just feel smugly superior and say shit behind my back which I can live with.

Short of the US getting pulled into an extended war elsewhere it cannot extricate itself from until China is too much of a peer power to even risk a fight it is going to fight China as part of the larger push of decoupling, containment, humiliation. Almost certainly over Taiwan, they don’t need to win per se, just inflict damage, bleed China and rally the western world and any hangers-on (India probably) to their side for sanctions and cutting economic and cultural ties as they do to China and Chinese people and culture what they did to Russia with the Ukraine war but much worse.

China just needs to be prepared and accept this. They need to prepare for war, they need to prepare for the possibility of cold war, of being completely cut off from the west and make plans for how they’ll restructure their economy to survive that if it comes. They need to build out their nuclear deterrent as much as possible to deter the US from a decapitating strike attempt and they need to prepare for a much more hostile and western empowered India on their border.

Somewhat. Russia doesn’t produce a lot of the things the US produces. For wheat and certain other things sure, but for soybeans, for fresh green vegetables, for nuts, for fruit? A lot of that stuff Russia doesn’t have the right climate for whereas the US has a uniquely diverse climate that allows them to from California to the plains and mid-west to the south to the northeast grow a variety of cultivars spanning everything from cheap corn and wheat to most every type of green vegetables, roots, nuts, fruits, etc. California alone has enough fertile soil and farmland to feed hundreds and hundreds of millions of people, maybe a billion if supplemented with grain staples from elsewhere.

As I said China won’t starve thanks to their own work in this area and their friends in Russia but well the Soviet people didn’t starve but they also didn’t have supermarkets with fresh tropical fruit or often an abundance of typical fruits and certain types of vegetables were not in the fullest supply due to the constraints of what they could grow. Agriculture has advanced somewhat but there are still limits and being cut off from the US and its incredible amount of produce will certainly drive up prices for Chinese people. This is why I think the CPC had that push to reduce food waste. If this comes to pass the Chinese people will need to be a bit more frugal with food.

For China to truly replace the US they need to free from the grips of US hegemony and maintain good trade relations with parts of the global south in Asia and Latin America which is still a work in progress. As I said as long as US controls global finance they can cut off trade or make it very expensive and for perishable goods like food that’s a real problem because you can’t afford another stop in your supply chain in another intermediate country and routing through shell companies for all of this stuff and even for stuff you can it introduces another point of spoilage and rot.

I still wear a mask. I wouldn’t necessarily wear one or keep one on if I was walking around a lightly populated park or down the sidewalk but I would before going into a store or a crowd (even outdoors) or any enclosed space with people like a train or station.

I’m not sure how mask wearing compares by country. In most of Asia it seems like it’s been normalized for decades for people who are feeling ill or have certain conditions to wear the blue cloth medical masks so I doubt in most of Asia it’s a big deal in most situations compared to the west where you have anti-mask reactionary sentiment and ideology that favors individual recklessness rather than responsibility.

Consider that Russia still trades with the west and even sells them vital materials like titanium and winter gas and we’re 2 years in now to the conflict.

I think it depends entirely on whether the US cuts China off first. China needs US food to enjoy a higher quality of living and the US exports a lot to them. If that continues China has reason not to because they want the food supply to continue. They won’t face famine or mass starvation or anything but quality of life would badly dip in that area without US food exports and if the US does that Europe may follow.

If China is cut off anyways from US and European food exports then they have less reason to act. Sadly even if they act it likely won’t really destroy the west. It’ll hurt the consumer market and drive prices through the roof for electronics among other things and cause some shortages but it’s likely the US will establish alternative supply lines through Indian middlemen (India it turns out is selling ammo to Italy which is handed directly to Ukraine and they know about this and are fine with it) just as Russia has done.

China also doesn’t have alternative markets for goods. Their economy will be in huge trouble if they lose the US and Europe (and if they lose the US they lose their vassal the EU). Africa becoming large enough to buoy them is still a decade away or more.

So China has no way of shutting out the US while remaining open to the rest of the world. The IS by contrast has decades of experience doing sanctions and tracking supply chains and as long as they control SWIFT and have dollar hegemony they can force others to comply to enough of a degree that China is probably hurt a bit worse in a vacuum.

Imperialist and colonizer nations are truly sick.

You see when US imperialists scream about China being a threat in our supply chains it’s because THEY have put hardware implants targeting others in supply chains they control and as they are good and China is evil China must be willing to do the same to them even more-so. Same with this kind of shit. They look at this and don’t think “my goodness are we the baddies?”, they instead have a freakout of “what if our enemies do this to us? omg, China is gonna use their products to do terrorism” despite zero evidence the Chinese or Russians, etc would ever sink to their level or have ever done so.

Again and again throughout history westerners do the most reprehensible, terroristic, war-criminal shit to others and despite their enemies having no history of doing that assume they’re just waiting to do the same to them the second they get the chance. Projection.

I’ve heard the axis of resistance is getting fed up with waiting but I’m not sure they’ll act even on this.

Oh sure they’ll lob some missiles but they’re stuck in a situation where there is an unhinged and unstable apartheid colony whose leader faces possible prison, certainly loss of power the moment this “crisis” is over so must keep escalating to keep it going along-with the widespread condemnation of them for carrying out a genocide meaning they want to play the victim, they want a war against them to break out so they can cry for pity and the censorship dial in the west can be turned up even further with ever more hysterical cries of anti-semitism for any criticism of “israel” while “they’re fighting for their lives and existence against jew haters who attack them for no reason”. So it wants to draw the US into a war, wants a regional war, wants a chance to crush and put down at least one element arrayed against it permanently.

Many feel however if they don’t get this war they look increasingly unhinged and become increasingly isolated and the bad PR just keeps on building beyond the ability of the west to tamp down. However there’s a real question what the end-game of that waiting play is. The west isn’t going to get ashamed soon enough to save the Palestinian people or Gaza, they’re really all in on defending the zionist regime and screaming down any criticism as anti-semitism while downplaying it even existing outside of a small group of “extremists” via their media. The US clearly isn’t willing to reign in the zionist regime. Trump or Harris neither is going to change things. And the fact is the zionist regime can keep escalating, they can bomb daycares and children’s hospitals and just keep upping the ante all the way to using a nuclear weapon if they really want to in order to attempt to provoke a response.

So if they do nothing they invite more attacks and attempts to goad them to draw the US in. If they respond they risk more escalation and war with the US involved. “israel” is doing salami-slicing tactics, they do something that demands a response, perhaps several things and claim they were for self-defense then sit back and wait, let things cool just a little then go back in for more, never letting the heat really drop.

The negotiations are a smokescreen for the zionist regime to carry out their genocide under yet it also gives cover for these actors to do nothing, to not escalate to war, to claim they need to wait and do it this way.

I will say one thing going for the “wait” camp is that unrest in the settler-colony is rising. Mass protests are occurring right now and if that can continue and be magnified it may be possible to collapse it or bring it to its knees and force it to stop the genocide and all other hostilities but that’s a big if.

Sorry to say but not great opsec by Hezbollah. I get not opening all of them but they should have opened some at random just to check for the possibility of electronic hardware bugs. Unless it was packed into the lithium cells themselves which might be possible. Heck for all we know they found a way to mix explosive compounds into the lithium itself in a way not visible by physical inspection and only by chemical analysis and perhaps subjecting them to a higher than normal voltage or something triggers the reaction.

Lithium batteries can be made to explode under the right conditions.

There’s one of two things going on here:

1. The pagers were perfectly normal off the shelf pagers, maybe with some minor flaw to safety or charging systems but nothing that was intentionally introduced. In this case the zionists found a way to hack the pagers (or potentially cell towers to broadcast something that causes the condition) to induce conditions leading to a battery fire/explosion. I don’t know enough about lithium batteries to say whether it’s suspicious so many of them exploded instead of catching fire though reports say at least some people noticed them getting strangely hot and discarded them which does suggest lithium battery overload.

2. The zionists knew about their use of pagers and in some way intercepted or replaced shipment of the ones they received with a batch that could be triggered to explode. For plausible deniability I’m guessing it was still a battery explosion rather than micro-explosives but we’ll have to see if any more info comes out.

Either one is problematic for Hezbollah’s communications though at least 2 can be addressed by attempting to do more secure sourcing (e.g. getting Iran to get a direct shipment through an intermediary from a Chinese firm and securing that to be shipped directly to Lebanon). If it’s 1 there’s not much they can do other than do an investigation on exactly how it happened and contact the manufacturers and hope one of them responds by offering a fixed model not vulnerable to this technique.

And there it is, the NATO-sexual weirdos come out to defend their precious imperialist war of aggression.

This makes two attempts on heads of state (or potential ones) by NATO loving /r/neoliberal types with the attack on the PM/president of Slovakia just because they expressed skepticism of supporting the Nazis in Ukraine.
