If someone like Bernie is going to croak soon and still manage to take this position, that just means that is his genuine beliefs.

voice of reason in the election drama

I think Vincent Bevins’ last book explains it. Al-sisi managed to build a strong autocratic state post Muslim Brotherhood period with the help of the US and by extension Israel.

The signatories include Green parties from several countries in which they govern as part of coalitions, such as Germany,

they are mostly a warring faction that became an army because they have slicker uniforms after the civil war

The only democracy in the middle east is basically little Russia, but for reason they are not held accountable for equivalent crime and even get away with far worst

Probably a good move. the readership of Haaretz is already leaving the country. Probably israel liberals understood their PR is not was potent as before.

The latest episode of Radio War nerd talks about the reason why dprk is on the front.

His theory is basically for engineering (it is unlikely to use them for combat since the language barrier would make it difficult to coordinate operations) The front is ww1 trench warfare and the dprk has some savoir faire with tunneling (according to the guest one town the russians was able to take was by tunnelling under an enemy position to blow it up).

Inb4 hamas tunnel jokes, the guest also implied that dprk assisted hezbollah with their tunnel infrastructure and this tactical knowledge was also absorbed by Hamas.

The other reason is that Russia and the DPRK might have a defence pact and it signal to south Korea and Japan that Russia has a stake in the peninsula if the situation goes hot.

He had an opinion piece about Palestinians being ungrateful and can’t obtain anything if they are being vocal.

This is before he got canceled from the mainstream media and got into the anti zionist grift.

But I prefer him than that comedian Bassem whatever his name is that goes to Pier Morgan any other days

Not much, they both will eventually revert back to secular western christianity

Chiang kai shek wanted to use this event and the battle of shanghai to serve as a show a force to gain support from allies power. The warehouse is located near the shanghai international settlement which the whited lived. One of the reason why this battle was so « successful » was that the Japanese can’t bomb the place as they would have because it would accidentally bomb the international settlement can cause an international outcry. The next reason was the japanese to this point haven’t encounter any serious fighting force until this point (this will also mark a change in strategy in the IJA which you see war crimes being normalize as they go south).

Overall, the reaction to the battle was mixed. There are some reactions on the bravery of the NRA but no real support in the short run. Chiang Kai shek lost the material support of Hitler with pressure from Japan. Stalin maintained his support for Chiang Kai Shek.

Sounds like a last ditch effort for the Liberals to get votes

The only news around this was this article.

The support seems to be from 2021 which ASSK was about to get couped. This action has no real ideological motivations behind it. You can see the realpolitik consideration when the Junta « stabilized » and normalized relation with China

Even if you take the Halloween is illegal at face value, how is that even renforceable ?

This is a site with an interactive map of the conflict. I think an interviewee on radio war nerd is associated with the creation of the map iirc.

The Tldr of Chinese involvement is there are involvement of China because the border between the two state is pretty porous for drug/arms trades and human trafficking. I remembered seeing on the news that one of the antigovernment faction set up a base of operation within Chinese territory around 2008. There was also closer relationship ties after Aung San Suu Kyi make a deal with the ruling junta for trade and border control. I also remember when the situation in Myanmar got worst after Aung san got ousted, there were anti government groups that expressed support for the Chinese government.

They really should learn about basic business strategy so he doesn’t go into an overly saturated market such as podcast

Do you think this second new deal would reduce people’s working hour?

You know just like Keynes promised that work week would be around 15h top in the future?

I don’t think it is really surprising, BRICs is basically a complain blocs with no concrete ideology and with frenemies as members

Yes but you will have steep competition in China unless it’s highly specialize

This is a good way to go. There are still a lot of obstacles to get informations (language, accessibility,etc.)

I don’t think it is productive to idealized CPC, the CPC isn’t going to disappear any day soon and our criticism of the system is not going to topple it neither.
