Switzerland repeatedly driving home that Swiss weapons are geopolitically worthless and not worth the trouble of adopting. Why buy weapons from someone who might rugpull support for them at any time in order to save their own image?

I’m no fan of cops but if any LEO in a blue state is willing to stand up to these goose-stepping pricks it should be commended.

My guess is the vast majority won’t, but I can remain hopeful.

First combat use of an ICBM at all, AFAIK.

The laws on warcrimes have always been a sort of mutual agreement, and they often end up being broken in reciprocity. One side commits perfidy, the other side is less inclined to take prisoners alive in return, as happened in the WWII Pacific theater.

I think its naive to think that there can ever be such a thing as a “good clean war” with the international community acting as objective and powerful referees throwing around red cards.

Russia hasn’t given a fuck about UXO in civilian areas for the entirety of the war, so I don’t see this as being an escalation. It’s their land, they’ll have incentive to take caution in their use.
