Nor should he have had a chance. He’s a relic of an unenlightened era. The scrap heap with all of them.

See: Afghanistan, Iraq.

America are the toddlers who have found father’s gun and decide to blast at anyone withholding sugar.

The idea that the American military are competent enough to go after just the cartels is laughable. Not to mention the violation of Mexican sovereignty.

Then you see what they did in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Any boy over the age of 12 was considered a potential terrorist therefore a “military age male” and was thus fair game for special forces murder squads, air strikes, drone strikes, and was not needed to be included in the official statistics for civilian kills.

In short the American military apparatus uses Terrorism as a green light to go for maximum overkill, regardless of the level of civilian kills and socio-economic impact. This in turn sustains the vast economic forces in defence contracting and makes a lot of political donors a lot of money.

It also rids the US of thousands of low-income patriotic-but-stupid people who sign up to the military because they have few other career options. These would later cost the state money in Medicare but not if they get killed in action.

War is primarily big business. Moral and legal factors take a back seat.

US military contractors get away with genocide. He won’t be Investigated as long as Tesla or SpaceX holds contracts.

Calibre is better installed by its own method as outlined on its site. Any apt repositories are unofficial and likely to be behind current.

It was in certain shots of most scenes. The ones where the height was most obvious.

It’s Warner Music, not Warner Bros.

That wasn’t the case. In 2023 dollars, the LotR trilogy had a budget of around $513 million, eventually resulting in about 12 hours of finished product. RoP has a budget of about $150m for around 9 hours. So the trilogy spent $42m per hour compared to RoP’s $16m per hour.

It should also be pointed out that Germany saying anything at all about foreign military intervention is a big deal, given their longstanding policy against it.

Although the US has spent more on bangs than Europe, which has spent on bangs but also helmets and armour and transport.

Anyone who saw Rings of Power knew this.

Brexit wasn’t left/right wing. Eurosceptics on both sides. I’d also point out France where right-wing populism ultimately lost out despite an increase in protest votes.

There’s also a greater tradition of public service broadcasting, meaning politicians are more rigorously interrogated than in the highly commercial, partisan American system.

The EU and EC are somewhat stabilising influences too. An EU member government simply wouldn’t be allowed to do some of the stuff Trump is doing.

Public opinion? Whose? Europe’s, who look down on rampant American capitalism and Trump? Africa’s, who have just been screwed by Trump and Musk? The Middle-East, who have been screwed by America for decades? Asia, who are waiting to hear what China says?
