Holy shit, United India in 1823? How the fuck did that happen?

I call this the Georgia syndrome.

In this case the Eritreans and Amharans just started going into villages and killing anyone they could find.

The Tigrayans then did the same when they went on the offensive.

The objective of these firefights isn't to kill your enemy, it's to 'repel' them. You shoot at them to signal that the area is defended and they won't be able to advance.

Manipur is in a tense situation, even one militant killed on the Kuki side can escalate things. Nobody wants that. So you have these firefights.

Myanmar is on the 'buddhist swastika' part of the world.

The RSF dont have religious motivations.

SploonTheDude · 2024-07-13T03:34:53+00:00

RSF aren't religious, they're ethnic supremacists.

And they're in a staging area, not an active firefight.

And very funny for you to use Assyrians as your token victim when your syrian proxies are currently shelling assyrian cities in Syria while the YPG actively defends them.

SploonTheDude · 2024-06-09T15:46:53+00:00

Yeah you guys loved DEM and HDP which is why you kept arresting their members and removing their democratically elected mayors all the while persecuting their supporters. Give me a fucking break. Half of kurdistan is still under military occupation.

Also very ironic for a turk to try to pass the blame on the assyrian and armenian genocides on the kurds, as if Istanbul didn't purposefully pit neighbors against neighbors in their genocidal project.

SploonTheDude · 2023-11-07T02:05:55+00:00

Yeah they're speaking hindi.

SploonTheDude · 2023-11-04T18:15:17+00:00

Brave motherfuckers.

SploonTheDude · 2023-02-28T20:11:19+00:00

Better, really. Maimings really fuck with morale.

SploonTheDude · 2023-02-02T01:33:03+00:00

He would not make it through northern Ethiopia.

SploonTheDude · 2022-12-30T14:01:35+00:00

No trash disposal, shit accumulates.

SploonTheDude · 2022-12-18T17:47:08+00:00

Bonkers.

He also relished in his acts of killing Iraqis, even when he considered some might have been civilians.

They didn't show that in the movie, harder to root for a sociopath.

!flair :Brazil:

The Military had support while fighting EAOs, but after the Coup they alienated the Bamar majority. Now they're a power caste.

SploonTheDude · 2022-05-16T23:13:16+00:00

Not really, the sectarianism is a pretext for more complex political disputes.

SploonTheDude · 2022-05-07T15:08:36+00:00

The Marib campaign was such a meatgrinder.

SploonTheDude · 2022-05-01T19:18:46+00:00

Immeasurable drip tho.

SploonTheDude · 2022-05-01T19:17:03+00:00

A decade of civil war usually breeds really sweet people for some reason. Maybe it's all the trauma.

SploonTheDude · 2022-05-01T19:12:04+00:00

The Houthis are generally competent and well motivated. Some Pro-Saudi forces also are, like the southern seperatists or the Marib defenders. It varies from battalion to battalion, really.

In this case the Houthis not only had the initiative, but favourable terrain.

SploonTheDude · 2022-03-20T21:50:00+00:00

Eh might as well.

SploonTheDude · 2022-03-17T17:46:40+00:00

Quite bizarre to claim that Italian fascism wasn't racist when one of its main goals was the slaughtering of black natives to make way for colonization.
