Surely something can exist between the death penalty for a pound of weed and letting violent criminals roam free.


But any punishment at all for criminals means that you're literally a nazi and no different from Adolf Hitler

I’m not talking about changing laws or sentences in your country, I’m talking of something that could be applied here but has some of that rough justice edge… i.e. not sending someone to their death because they sold weed, but actually punishing violent crimes much more severely.

17.5 years sounds better than what rapists get here, that’d be a start.


The death penalty part is endemic to Most countries in South East Asia. Nothing we can do about it.
Thailand relaxed the laws, but Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia and Philippines still have it.

But it will change in future for drugs like weed.

F-16s in Ukraine. We did it," President Zelensky said at a ceremony at an unnamed airbase, flanked by two of the planes.

With their capacity to carry rockets, bombs and missiles, F-16s should in theory allow the air force to carry out more strikes deep inside occupied territory, and possibly on targets close to the border inside Russia.
They may also help defend against Russian glide bombs - dumb munitions fitted with pop-out wing kits and guidance modules to deliver precision strike stand-off capabilities, similar to the JDAM munitions from the United States.
Around 3,000 were dropped in March alone, mostly from Su-34 fighter-bombers.

Ferdia told me that these were a nothingburger; it seems he was right and I was wrong. Where is he anyways? I'd love to see his opinion on wether f16s will be used to shoot down drones or be used for "deep strikes inside Russian territory". Oh well

I'm leaning towards these being a nothing burger, mostly because they need an entire support structure to be effective, and also because you can't just give cutting edge Germanic technology to a bunch of delusional Slavic peoples (who think they're Germanic) and expect them to use it effectively. Lots of training and development required. And money.. lots and lots of money that they and we don't have. Continuing this war is a fool's errand.

The shortsightedness of our geopolitics really being highlighted as the Russians have most likely been giving Iran sophisticated weapons over the last week or so. Truly some brilliant 5d chess players we have running this country.

Ukrainians are dumb, The spokesman for the Ukrainian Intelligence agency of all people in an interview claimed Ukraine was responsible for passing the intelligence given to Islamic terrorists to ambush and kill lots of Mali soldiers and some wagner mercs.
Then Ukraine tries to backtrack it when Mali cuts ties and calls for its neighbors also fighting terrorism to do the same.
They are now demanding Mali prove what Ukraine officials have already admitted.

Morons, lol.

But oh well, I guess Ukraine can cope without diplomatic or economic support from fucking Mali.
