Whatever one's personal opinion of it may be, ICC is still considered one of the top arbiters of international law. We took Armenia there over other shit and got fairly impartial results so I don't see why we can't take old Vagif there too.

AKP did withdraw from the Istanbul Convention. I sometimes think that women's rights laws in the US are a bit too much but then I see this and consider that not having them could be much worse.

The only thing people will remember about Barbie 3 months from now is Ryan Gosling as He's Literally Me, sorry, I mean Ken.

His expression never changes so how can you tell?

At best you could argue that nuking two cities was excessive when the US could've just bombed one and then dropped another one in a more desolate area to make the point that "yeah, we've got more where that came from". But that was more Truman being annoyed that Germany had already surrendered...

It does annoy me how almost every single Turkish character in Western movies is depicted as a gangster of some kind but at least in the case of John Wick 4 almost everyone agrees that this dude was easily the best part of the movie. Scott Adkins was great in the role, I thought he was just a...

Wait a minute, PLO and anti-Arab? How the flip does that work?

I'm assuming now that we have more or less come to an acceptable agreement with the EU and Armenia in regards to the separatists in Qarabag, it's time to start pushing the Russians out.

Maybe or maybe not. Man will do the craziest shit to stay in power. Another worrying note in that article is the comment that Russia has been providing gas to Turkey on a credit. If true, that is going to MASSIVELY bite Turkey in the ass in the future.

Hersh's story makes more sense. F-16s wouldn't have been nearly enough especially since certain US lobby groups are already trying to put obstacles in the way. That being said even $13 billion is a relatively modest sum in the grand scheme of things. It will save Erdogan for what, maybe two years?

Eh, not the first time. Bill Clinton was notorious for having the good stuff around during his two terms.

Can't find much on it either but who knows. If true then I'm guessing it's "revenge" for Turkey "violating" the grain agreement and letting Sweden in. In which case I humbly propose that Turkey make 3 times as many Russians in Syria pay with their lives in response. I am expecting certain...

Menendez has to have blackmail on people high up because anybody else in as much deep s**t as he is legally would've been forced to resign ages ago.

Are they even allowed to do that? I believe there are international regulations in existence to prevent people from using national symbols of other countries for their own commercial purposes. This skews awful close.

The fog of war still exists. We won’t actually know for sure until it’s all over and people can start investigating. Over the course of this conflict I’ve heard everything from Javelins to HIMARS being described as useless at some point.

The only thing that baffles me about K-pop guys is that it completely turns everything I thought I knew about women upside down. Also K-pop fans can be one of the craziest fandoms around but that's just fans in general. Apparently some Korean celebrities have to keep their relationships private...

Seems to me that no agreement was reached, merely the Russian state allowing Prigozhin to get close to Moscow before revealing to him that they hold all the cards. It's the only reason I can think of for him standing down, he suddenly realized he was badly outmatched and was being played.

Wagner goons, assuming they get into power, won't let them and the vast majority of ethnic Russians who have never let go of their imperialistic ambitions will support them in crushing those attempts. See communists for an example.

Buddy, Wagner is made up of literal criminals. This isn't Russians "waking up", this is some Russians backing one group of thugs against another group of thugs. Ideally all of them die and substantially weaken Russia in the process.

Wagner won't let them which is why I'm inclined towards Wagner losing this engagement. Which I suspect they will.
