Who will show Trump and Netanyahu that they're not above the law? It has to be Europe | Steve Crawshaw

Russia is second best in Ukraine at the moment, so they fall into "everyone else". China, of course, is willing to disapprove, but there's not a snowball's chance in hell they do anything about it.

Stop passing the buck to everyone else! For a country with the words “right to keep and bear arms” and “necessary to the security of a free state” in your constitution, you all roll over to nazis awfully fucking quickly. But yeah, maybe Italy can fix your dictator problem for you by asking him politely to stop.

I wonder what would happen if the push back against Trump-Elon does got loud and violent. The Reighstag fire turned the Nazis up to 11.

Or just one daring American with nothing left to lose. Animals are dangerous when backed into a corner and threatened.

They have the #1 (USAF), #2 (US Army Aviation), #4 (US Navy), and #7 (USMC) largest air forces in the world, plus nukes. What do you expect Billy Bob and his AR-15 to accomplish?

I was reading a story recently about an Italian plumber's brother doing big things with less equipment.

There were already two failed assassination attempts. If it were that easy it would have happened already.
-
And how many secret service agents were guarding that ceo?
-
As others mentioned, it has to be done by Americans. A single one would do. Anyone knows when Luigi will be available ?
On a more serious note, dictatorships can not be removed from power by external forces unless it comes with overwhelming firepower (like Iraq in 2003) or the invaders are committed to a long war that will let the targeted nation devastated (Axis nations in WWII). But the biggest problem is what to do after the tyrants are out. As the world learned after Iraq and Afghanistan, creating (or restoring) a culture of democracy, human rights and respect for the laws is no easy task.

I thought Israel was supposed to withdraw from Gaza? Are we now demanding the IDF stay in Gaza and protect it from the US military?
This is all nonsense anyway. The US isn't going to be sending any military into Gaza. Trump is just trolling.

With the Jews owning all the banks, media and 99% of the judiciary ?
Not a chance.

I never stated any positive or negative association in my comment

I dunno, homie...
"Lol that blowhard crazy idiot. I bet he's not actually gonna do it."
Has been proven by history many times over to be a foolhardy assertion.
... Especially recent history.(checks map)
My word, Russia is STILL trying to take Ukraine?! -
Trump and his clan want to build hotels there, I wouldn't bet on him not sending troops there
-
Nothing, but it proves how stupid your "we need to keep our guns because we have to fight the evil government" propaganda is...

You're exactly right. And this is scary right now.
They've been polarizing "tHe GuN iSsUe" for decades now, to divide people into easily sortable balls in their stupid game of "Hungry Hungry Hippos." Playing with that fire has officially reached the "and find out" phase.
On one hand, a large portion of 2A sided voters have started wearing stupid little red hats, buying even bigger smoking pickup trucks, and fallen to the side of literal nazis, (if they weren't already nazis).
A chunk of team red are terrified of the government but for some reason want our/their employers to have absolute rule of divine right or something.
The other major faction has spent decades trying to actively disarm the people, enact bans, and straight up tried to get the Second Amendment removed. They've actively pushed disinformation and peddle ideas that scarier-looking firearms increase mass-murder potential and we should all be super afraid of them. "Only the rich and enlisted should be wielding these things!"
Most of these voters' ability to fight for their rights end at a picket line and some very harsh social media criticism. (Look out!)
Both factions' officials generally think everyday street cops would look absolutely baller rolling through town in more secondhand battle vehicles and fully automatic weaponry.
My point is:
For rational people who understand the core of our Constitution despite it going through various manipulative marketing filters throughout every cycle, it's REALLY hard to know who your real friends are outside your immediate circle.
So it's more important than ever to organize as civilly as possible to fight this nonsense, but educate your friends on how to protect each other when that falls through. We're quickly approaching a point where we can't abide the privilege of ignorance if we're to present meaningful resistance to these bullies.

creating (or restoring) a culture of democracy, human rights and respect for the laws is no easy task.
it's even harder when you bomb them back to the stone age, killing or maiming thousands of civilians in the process

Probably. They'd just use it to justify taking Taiwan.
