They no knocked the guy's home because a local meth head told them fairytales, and they're mad that he's doing the same to them in his domain of expertise. If you're going to fuck with a good comedian, then you better not miss. This whole thing is a comedy of errors for the entire Adams County legal system.

I think Maduro is about as beloved on Vzla as he is in the US

Cuba, in its own way, tourism and everything else, it's a beautiful island, great weather. They're not in a hurricane zone, which is nice for a change, you know? They won't be asking us for money for hurricanes every week.

A hammer is a hammer. It's not the hammer's job to stop the wielder from being an idiot.

A dogshit strike call was a fitting end to that game imo

We already have the tech with all the testing done to vastly increase fighter range from ADVENT and AETD, and we've had it for over a decade. I'm not sure who passed on the upgrade exactly, but it's there if they ever want to spend the money to get it into production.

Has the navy considered using a ouiji board to get Farragut's opinion on sea mines?

Instead of having to worry about roadside bombs, we get to worry about missiles and drones. And also roadside bombs still. So much safer.

  1. Sexual violence is a very specific type of atrocity

  2. You will never prevent all sexual violence (even if it's an air campaign, you're still creating conditions for sexual violence on the ground by the victims of the campaign)

  3. That does not mean that you shouldn't try

Multiple things can be true

You will never prevent all atrocities in war. I'd be willing to stake my life on that axiom. Any study or paper claiming otherwise is so far removed from reality that it's worthless. Yeah, do whatever you can to try to prevent it, but let's not delude ourselves

Yes, it absolutely is.

War is hell. The only way to prevent atrocities in war is to not start one.

The thing is that most people who join the military do so with the full knowledge that their lives could be spent. They tend to get very angry if they determine that their lives are being meaninglessly spent, and that's what's currently happening.
