YOU DON'T KNOW A DAMN THING ABOUT RACING !
German Vice-Chancellor and war crime apologist Robert Habeck was in a talkshow last night. "Israel's demands for weapons will be fulfilled" was one of his statements. When asked if solidarity with Israel could also include German soldiers he dodged the question.

They also had Deborah Feldman, who quoted Margot Friedländer, a Holocaust survivor (translated from German):

quote:

"I hold the firm conviction, that there is only a single legitimate lesson learned from the Holocaust. Namely the absolute, unconditional defense of human rights, for everybody. Those who instrumentalize the Holocaust to justify further violence, have abandoned their own humanity."

Hammerstein has issued a correction as of 14:10 on Nov 2, 2023

I also love the bit where he says they they took "preliminary actions" before deciding to shell IMMEDIATELY after saying that the first order he got was start blasting.

Exploration is ill-advised.
The popular image of WW1 is a senseless insane war led by idiot leaders on all sides who basically stubbornly refused to admit the situation had changed in between enthusiastically trying out fancy new toys, until the Americans came in and roflstomped everyone. Seems maybe not far from the truth.

I mean, a quick check of how much steel an rpg 7 can pierce (600mm of steel) and the density of said steel (a bit under 8 tons per cubic meter) would give you a pretty good idea of thr feasibility of actually rendering the entire surface of a tank invulnerable

Yeah it's why the Soviets can only use their ""iron curtain" ability for 20 seconds every 5 minutes.

how stable is Saudi Arabia though, really? It wouldn't be easy for an assassin to get to MBS, but if he did, all hell would break loose. There is no successor. I don't know, maybe the Saudis are more lockstep than the average royal family ruling an absolute monarchy, but I'd think multiple factions would arise, old grudges would resurface, and this issue of how much to sell out the muslim world and ally with the hated enemy Israel would suddenly become very salient.

People (in power) were not actually that mad when the Germans first used chemical weapons, at the time. Postwar, obviously, things changed and public opinion was always against it.

A Strange and Formidable Weapon: British Responses to World War I Poison Gas

The advent of poison gas in World War I shocked Britons at all levels of society, yet by the end of the conflict their nation was a leader in chemical warfare. Although never used on the home front, poison gas affected almost every segment of British society physically, mentally, or emotionally, proving to be an armament of total war. Through cartoons, military records, novels, treaties, and other sources, Marion Girard examines the varied ways different sectors of British society viewed chemical warfare, from the industrialists who promoted their toxic weapons while maintaining private control of production, to the politicians who used gas while balancing the need for victory with the risk of developing a reputation for barbarity. Although most Britons considered gas a vile weapon and a symptom of the enemy’s inhumanity, many eventually condoned its use.
