A soup pot. What the actual fuck. I hope they get justice so they can finally rest at peace. What a monster I'm glad they gave them the black bag.

Reply to comment by Deicide1031 in Macron flies to Africa to counter waning French influence by HRJafael
Definitely right and none offense taken. I was just pointing out that a big part of French society is influenced by African diaspora and culture (mainly in the big cities) which is not the case in other country with the same "imperialists ambitions" operating in the continent at the moment.
It brings a mix of "damn if you do, damn if you don't" which is why, in my opinion, we should step aside from this sensible region for a bit and focus a lot more on attracting investments and developments in our DOMTOMs (oversea territories that are fully part of France).

thank you for some clarification. Would the FLQ be an example?

Lol this is just a bizzare semantic point to get so riled up about. Especially when youre wrong. Its a war caused by an invasion. Even the Ukrainian Government itself refers to what is happening as a war.
In fact its the Kremlin that keeps insisting that this not be referred to as a 'war'. So I guess thats one area that you and Putin agree on :)
> This is why I literally laugh when people like you get fucked up in any way. I fucking love seeing stupid people get hurt.
Holy fuck bro you need to calm down.

Law enforcement is one of the top “professions” of psychopaths (ie, ASPD incl sociopaths, narcissists)

Partisans are historically defined as locals under occupation that sabotage the occupying force.
Think of like, the French Resistance fighting back against the Nazi's in occupied France in WW2. Or even the Taliban fighting the Americans in Afghanistan, those would technically be partisans because they are locals fighting a foreign army occupying their land.
Anyway, you are correct that this Belarus group probably shouldn't be called partisans. Belarus is not at war.

Why would they acknowledge it at all then? A statement like this would only be escalating the situation by bringing it into the collective consciousness for no reason. Would it not be hush hush, like any proof whatsoever of these weapons you are thinking they are sending?

Exactly, something the size of a speedboat. It's why Ukraine launched a raid at the Sevastopol port at night when the Russian guard is down. An ongoing vessel will be constantly on guard and will need to spam the defenses to get even one hit in. And that one hit isn't guaranteed to be lethal to the ship (as seen with the Tanker War & the USS Cole) unless it's fire retention, crew training, & maintenance has been god awful as it was on the Moskva.

Reply to comment by Coolegespam in As Tokyo Electric Power Co. moves closer to discharging tons of stored water from its stricken Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant, local opposition has intensified and cries of betrayal are being heard by DoremusJessup
You are deliberately trying to make it sound dangerous while conveniently ignoring actual radiation doses.
And, again, it's 2.2g of tritium. In france alone about 30g are released every year and there is no evidence of any damage at all.
>The latest committed effective dose coefficient of tritium incorporated into the body via the oral route in adults is 1.9 × 10^−8 mSv/Bq for the soluble form, and that of the biogenic form is 5.1 × 10^−8 mSv/Bq. Source
>wastewater will be diluted from hundreds of thousands of Bq per liter of tritium in the storage tanks to 1,500 Bq per liter in discharge water. [...] The maximum estimated dose from Fukushima's discharged water will be 3.9 microsieverts per year. This is much lower than the 2,400 microsieverts people receive from natural radiation on average each year. source
>As of April 2021, total amount of tritium stored in Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant is about 860 terabecquerels (TBq). In comparison to the discharge of tritium from nuclear facilities across the world, see the table below. In 2018, La Hague reprocessing plant in France discharged 11,460 TBq of tritium, which is more than 13 times the total amount of tritium stored in Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.[57] From 2010 to 2020, nuclear power plants in South Korea discharged a total of 4,362 TBq of tritium, which is more than 5 times the total amount of tritium stored in Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant.

I take it you've never been to the poorer parts of Eastern Europe.
Things over there aren't exactly functioning at peak competency.

Another day another nuke threat. Gets to the point where who cares anymore. I’m game. Better than the same scare tactics everyday. Society needs a reset anyway.
