Crab Dad posted:I’m still struggling with how you fight “fair” with a country that has advocated genocide in both words and actions. At least when we nuked Japan we just said it was for military reasons since we obviously value our soldiers higher than their civilians at the time. The other problem is the people who focus on the nuclear weapons and tend to ignore the sheer amount of people killed in just the firebombing campaigns. Like.....they were even more destructive.

Reminder that this is the guy who doesn't believe Bin Laden was involved with 9/11 and made some really odd claims about the Syrian chemical weapons attacks. Its far better to say we don't have conclusive proof WHO blew up the pipes, other than someone did.

Small birds are no longer a major issue, most engines are supposed to be able to tolerate anything up to slightly smaller than a goose. A small balloon and a ~6lb object shouldn't be a huge deal. But I suspect the FAA still wouldn't smile on people just releasing balloons into airspace

facialimpediment posted:Yeah, that's the proper read. Putin isn't loving with the warhead caps and even his speech today was just a reheated speech from 6 months ago with no policy changes. Classic case of the propaganda saying one thing and the actions saying another thing. Not too much to worry about and nothing really new. I wonder if he even expects things to change at this point. It sounds like he's tired of this too and is just reading canned spam messaging.

Hyrax Attack! posted:Yeah I’ve wondered about that, if China pulls off a quick invasion before the US could intervene there’d be sanctions but would be plausible it would be like Hong Kong where there wasn’t much disruption. But if it’s a long war with US Navy ships getting sunk, even if China did overrun Taiwan no way in hell anything leaves their ports for a NATO country even if that badly disrupts the world economy, and Russia and India aren’t gonna buy enough to prevent hundreds of millions of factory workers from becoming unemployed which is a recipe for social upheaval which is very much what China does not want. Hong Kong involved less disruptions because it was the Trump Administration. I suspect any other Administration, even a different Republican Administration, would've bee completely different. Trump/Pompeo spent a lot of time disrupting normal US geopolitics.
