the US to say anything? We do the same thing with our Criminal laws

… and don’t acknowledge the ICC and host indicted war criminals / Netanjahu. The president is also banking his annexation plans on the ICC not enforcing indictments in his case. And I believe I read that the agenda of Netanjahu’s next visit to the US openly includes action to undermine the ICC, so it’s indeed right wing authoritarians conspiring against accountability.

A resolute response is too tedious for the president, who apparently can’t even honor the own soldiers - golfing schedule conflicts.

Hvis man tænker invasionsscenariet lidt videre, bliver angriberen jo straks en krigsforbryder, og ICC ser ud til at fungere ret godt for mig. For selvudnævnte tidligere aspiranter til Nobels fredspris er dette måske for vild en udvikling, og det ville kræve en del disciplin (at blive i et land, der ikke anerkender ICC, “heldigvis” hjemlandet) for ikke at ende i en celle.

It will be a steep learning curve to realize that owning and citing from a book (let’s say the art of the deal) doesn’t mean that the enormous effort that previous world leaders put into brokering peace agreements was because they were stupid or lazy. Unfortunately, predictably, “bullying everyone and everything” will not work, but putting the ball so clearly in Russia’s court is actually good progress.

Jeg bruger LibreOffice privat på både Linux og Windows og kan klart anbefale. Der er helt sikkert en vis indlæringskurve, men den er ikke dramatisk, da der er vejledninger og supportgrupper til rådighed. Jeg kan forestille mig, at integration med eksisterende offentlige systemer er en udfordring, men at etablere disse forbindelser bør være en bedre investering i IT end at løse Microsofts problemer.

I’m eager to see how the clown expects to ever be trusted again - randomly cancelling his own and ages old treaties at will or using threats to do so for “negotiations” (not to speak threats of annexation of former allies), what’s left for positive diplomacy once he comes to see he needs it?

… and it’s great to get it on to Fox News to reach their clients. There’s increasing suffering among them and at some point people will join the protesters.

Would be great indeed but I fear there won’t be"that moment where he realizes …". In his view he’s doing everything right for his audience (grifter in chief, Putin, billionaires). Nevertheless “chapeau!” to the protesters, well framed in the ski resort setting - always to remind the amount of taxpayer paid relaxation while others suffer from their actions.

Congrats! It’s amazing how Ukraine is keeping up and innovating warfare with their home developed weapons (not certain if that applies here but truly amazing to me!). A lot to learn for Europe defense.
