> The system also opens the possibility of using them to ambush Russian aircraft as they take-off or land on Crimean air bases. The USVs can sit off the Crimean coast and pick off the aircraft as they approach unawares. There is at least circumstantial evidence to suggest that this may have already been done.
I think it's cute that the only standard of international justice #Palestine recognizes is the #icj and #Hamas basically told the court to fuck off after it declared Hamas international criminals with #Netanyahu.
So the President thinks the US is responsible for what others do with the weapons we give them? That is interesting. #israel#palestine#ukraine#russia#war
Reasonable. How is this situation ever going to be solved without a Palestinian state? It can't go on as it has since 1967. Australia should recognise Palestine too.

The coordinated announcements are purely symbolic — but not w/o some power.
The leaders of the 3 countries said they hoped their recognition would press #Israel, the #Palestinians & the international community toward a #TwoStateSolution to the conflict.
“In the midst of a #war, w/tens of thousands killed & injured, we must keep alive the only alternative that offers a political solution for Israelis & Palestinians alike: Two states, living side by side, in #peace & #security,” Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said.

ICC is seeking an arrest warrant against Netanyahu and the defence minister of Israel. Finally, someone is taking a stand for Palestine and stopping the war!
The chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court said May 20 he is seeking arrest warrants for leaders of Israel and Hamas, including Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, over actions taken during their seven-month war.
As long as this traitor of the Western Democracy the German Olaf Scholz is in power with his Russian minded party SDP 🤷🏻♀️ we will not see any Taurus missile delivery towards Ukraine 🇺🇦
The German Olaf Scholz is an admirer of Putin and his SDP party seems to be strongly in favor of the daily Russian genocide inside Ukraine 🇺🇦
It is unforgivable and not understandable that the “leaders” of the US and Europa are so slow and so obviously purposely delaying their support for #Ukraine 🇺🇦
🤷🏻♀️ All #Europeans and #US citizens will finally pay a dangerous heavy price with their lives and money when Russia will not be soon defeated
The US and #Europe in particular #France and #Germany are totally naive with their moderate and hesitating “support” 🤦🏻♀️
Ukraine needs to be able to shoot down russian bombers dropping bombs on Ukraine, with Patriot and other western systems and it needs to be able to shoot at invasion troup concentrations inside russia with glsbd, himars, artillery, .. etc Same for F16.
We must not self deter, but force russia to explicitly threaten, so we know who put fire to the Diehl plant, broke sea cables, etc, and thereby break russian propaganda.

If the US saw lack of ICC jurisdiction as a valid defense that exempts Israel from ICC prosecution, then US would not have welcomed ICC arrest warrants for Putin—who also rejects ICC jurisdiction. But instead the US happily welcomed ICC warrants against Putin, and stands by those warrants to this day.
