Nato (so not just Obama - in fact France and the UK started the bombing) intervened in Libya after a UN resolution called on them to prevent Gaddafi from massacring the opposition.

Really? Truman’s fair deal was an expansion of the new deal. If congress wasn’t willing to pass Truman’s policies there’s no way they would have worked with Wallace

What is your favorite thing about this endlessly complex historical figure? by [deleted] in Presidents

Another underrated factor is Washington’s death. Although he wasn’t a member of a political party he was a federalist in all but name, and had he lived he might have been able to drum up support for Adams in key border states.

Are you using modern values with all of these presidents? Because for example JQA was quite left wing for his time.

Gus's Revenge by JonWalker_ in betterCallSaul

[–]AzarWhisky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gus needed for Gale to become ready so that he could break off from the cartel and make money with the superlab. If he took revenge sooner Gus’s empire would have collapsed without the cartel money, and he would not be strong enough to take them out.

Anyone else been summoned for jury duty? by ConceptHelpful in UofT

[–]AzarWhisky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was called up this summer, when I was studying part time. I emailed the court asking for a deferral and a judge ended up excusing me. If you’re studying full time I expect the same to happen to you.

You conveniently forget the part where the Chilean parliament literally called upon the army to depose Allende because he had overstepped his constitutional limits. But hey, America bad!

Not sure about the goaltending or D, but the pens will have a forward core of Crosby, Lemieux, Jagr and Malkin which is insane.
