just in case it wasn't clear, I completely agree. it'll be fun to point to if it turns out to be true, but I don't have a reason to believe it is.

What happens if putins flight path is over an ICC member? Can that country pull a belarus on the plane?

Russia has been very careful with the flight paths of their planes since countries started closing their airspace to them. You can get from Russia to South Africa overflying only Iran.

Well that's interesting, atlhough, hard to understand what he's actually getting at. A military overthrow? Belarus somehow in cahoots with a military coup? What's Putin's role in all of this? What about Lukashenka's?

What's the game plan?

Consequences of the attack on Odesa were clarified. Seems like it could have been much worse.

quote:

Massive Russian attack on Odesa last night.

◾️X-22 and Oniks missiles hit a grain and oil terminals: reservoirs and equipment damaged, a fire started.
◾️A blast wave damaged residential buildings. At least 6 people, including a 9 year old boy, were injured
◾️Ukrainian air defense shot down an X-59 missile near the shore. It fell in one of Odesa districts, creating a large crater and damaging buildings around it. Three people were injured.
◾️Two industrial objects and two warehouses were hit in one of the districts. One person injured.
◾️Eight Shahed drones shot down in Odesa region. Fragments damaged hotels and injured two people.

This is what summer nights look like when you've got a terrorist state for a neighbor.

This, 100%, or at least it's the way things are in Malaysia- the upper class (not just the autocrats who are officially in charge) treat Islam like a brand label.

Some part of me is wishing South Africa's saying they won't enforce the warrant just to bait Putin into turning up just because of how funny it'd be.

South Africa was never gonna arrest him. But they also really didn't want to be put in the position of having him force the issue and waltz around their country with impunity, bringing criticism upon them for allowing it. I'm quite sure they pushed back heavily on him visiting.

This is the real impact of the arrest warrant. He's never going to the Hague. But every time he wants to travel, its going to cause problems that the prospective host really doesn't want to deal with (unless they're China or Iran or whatever).
