Reply to comment by roosterfareye in Belarus to Mobilize 1.5 Million Potential Soldiers Outside the Armed Forces in Case of War, Senior Belarusian Official Claims by Leshracc
Hopefully that's the case and the people have actual balls unlike russians(i swear for all their depiction of being hardy and strong, russians always let their rulers systematically kill them without any fight)...
It recently came out that Lukashenko esentially sold Belarus to Russia when they helped him stay in power some time ago sooo...

Maybe they should put their elected leader in power. Unfortunately their military is a bunch of traitors to the people.

I guess you have to put yourselves in their shoes. If part of your country was taken over would you just accept it?

Why do we always focus on appearance like it's the worst insult we can give? Why not focus on the actual negative things he's done like a dictatorship then what a little girl looks like?

Inefficient, but not useless.
If you have more soldiers than your enemy has bullets, you win.

There is a difference in dynamics, between russia and belarus.
In Russia, putin is still largely popular. In belarus, lukashenko is largely despised.
Conscription is unlikely to go well in belarus. You would be giving guns, to people who despise their own government.

Reply to comment by IsraeliDonut in Two Israelis murdered in Palestinian terror shooting in West Bank by yoyo456
A country built on settler terrorism. Not only as an institutional feature, but an apartheid ingrained socially within the fabric of Israeli identity.
To be Israeli is to be a purveyor of apartheid.
Find me an Israeli that fights for Palestinians and you’ll have found the exception.

Reply to First 2000 inmates moved to El Salvador's new gangster prison - President Nayib Bukele, who has declared a "war" on gangs, claims Center for the Confinement of Terrorism is largest mega-prison in Americas. by mortalaa
Why does this read like one gang is in charge and all other gangs are/will be imprisoned.
Then to hide the truth. The one remaining gang will be sophisticated and bend rules rather than kill and act violently.
It leads to a concern that anyone in the future that doesn't agree will be considered a gang member and imprisoned, without fair justice.
I say that based on the heavy restrictions imposed inside the prison. I hope I'm wrong and that it simply helps make the country safer.

half life of tritium is 12.33 years.
A human can survive about 3 days without water, which already says a lot with how fast it will exit the body.

Reply to Anti-war partisans in Belarus claim to have damaged Russian plane | Belarus by Caratteraccio
This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 86%. (I'm a bot)
> Belarusian anti-war partisans claim to have severely damaged a Russian military aircraft in what an opposition leader has called the "Most successful diversion" since the beginning of the war.
> "The front and middle section of the aircraft were damaged, as well as avionics and a radar antenna," said a report attributed to BYPOL. The damage to the aircraft has not been independently confirmed, although both Russian and Belarusian military bloggers have reported explosions on Sunday at the airfield.
> Belarusian cyber-partisans have also been fighting the government since the 2020 protests against the Belarusian leader, Alexander Lukashenko.

Yea.. human wave tactics are useless in the 21sy century. Least of all vs western technology. Everything is high volume, high lethality.

While the closest most people in the US, including myself, have come to experiencing a true famine is watching sad commercials on TV, disasters that could result in the loss of half the world's population are just getting started. Extreme weather, unrecoverable drought, fires, disease, loss of arable land, loss of habitat are all problems that have been accelerating rather than getting better.
Water crises will be one of many battles over resources. South Africa has had cities run out of potable water. While these issues have been addressed, this problem is growing in Africa. In the US we are seeing new water wars emerge between states, including areas in the southwest wanting to drain water from the Great Lakes. Many wars have been fought over land, water, and natural resources. We are going to see more issues in places that can least afford these conflicts, and we will see other problems in developed countries like the US where some regions become nearly uninhabitable.
I think many people have climate fatigue when we should be seeing more climate panic. I think we are in for a great deal more global pain before the world does what is necessary.
