Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

If he’s saying it, I’ll believe it. And I also think he sees this as a way to win the midterms with few Hispanic vote.

Naval blockades are an act of war in international law (as much as that matters anymore). Cuba seems to be the first target of Trump expansionism in the Americas. It has the potential to be the annexation of Czechoslovakia of our time.

blockade is defined in the UN charter as an aggressive act of war. Any fallout from that would mean NATO has no duty to support the US.. in that conflict or any conflict continuing from it.

it’s in the definition of Agression Resolution (Re. 3314) and is considered an illegal act, and a war crime if it halts import of food and medicine.

Retaliating with commensurate and proportional force against a blockade is legally allowed by art. 51 of the UN Charter.

Sounds like something a true predator would say.

[–] Archer@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Elian Gonzales is now a Cuban legislator, it would be the second time the US taking him into custody made international news

[–] TwilitSky@lemmy.world 6 points 2 weeks ago

Why does everything he says make him sound like a predator? I know the answer but, seriously, I'm still asking.
