Reply to comment by Yum_Kaax in Salisbury Novichok poisoning medics 'still traumatised' by DeathHamster1
I don’t believe this person was talking about naturally occurring toxic materials. I think they meant venoms, or poisons originating from animals. Either way I would agree lead can be deadly in high doses, but is much harder to poison someone with than Novichok. Not a very good tool for assassins.

What do you mean? There's nothing in the wikipedia to say it's in any way American, and I can't find anything by googling about an American branch/version.

Reply to Norway: Thunberg joins Indigenous protests against turbines. The young environmental activist says green energy cannot come at the expense of human rights. A court order has deemed the turbines' location in Norway illegal, as they disrupt Sami reindeer-herding traditions by DoremusJessup
Because unchecked climate change certainly won't affect reindeer herding traditions.

We need progress! Also we need to protect tradition!
Fuck.

Reply to comment by AltNationReality in Kremlin says it is concerned by situation in breakaway Moldovan region by nycboots
It is a region Russia has occupied since 1990 specifically because they wanted to create a perpetual territorial conflict that would prevent Moldova from ever really integrating with the rest of the EU. These sorts of conflicts are how they operate with any nation that is not a member of NATO and small enough Russia thinks they can bully.

I imagine it will be a little more subtle... like PP. Not necessarily because he's a dick, but because of his Petite Phalanges.

Russia has been stirring up trouble there since 1990. It is past time Russian troops left.

Reply to comment by ForgottenDreamshaper in Salisbury Novichok poisoning medics 'still traumatised' by DeathHamster1
If you’re talking about the Blue Ringed octopus, then the treatment is to get put on a ventilator until the venom leaves your system. Symptoms are pretty noticeable, and respiratory depression is what kills you.
As long as you’re at a hospital in time, approx 30 min, they would start treating those symptoms regardless of knowledge of the source , taking the guesswork away.
Just to respond to your earlier statement. Novichok is very deadly, and does kill people most of the time. There is no cure, only treatment, and it does cause long term damage for many people who survive. If you’re wondering why the Russians use it, it’s because it’s easy to administer to someone, and it’s distinctly Russian, meaning they can use it as a political tool, to spread fear.

Reply to comment by Brilliant-Rooster762 in Ukraine war: Zelensky says situation in Bakhmut worsening by jacobhong
I think when the Soviet Union fell and became the Russian federation should be testament that Russia will always be Russia regardless of any Balkanization, but there will be more Ukraines and there will always be a threat of invasion.

I’m not saying it’s justified but these borders have changed hands many times throughout history. This isn’t an isolated case. That being said both sides will have to compromise in order for the war to end, otherwise we are looking at another 20 year war

Biden is evil and brilliant. Too bad he can't confess to blowing up Nordstream because that would get him re-elected - and start World War 3. It appears that America and Norway teamed up to pull a Viking raid on the Nordstream Pipeline and blow it up. What that means is Norway is now the #1 supplier of natural gas to europe. They will make an additional $112 billion dollars which they'll invest in their cutting edge renewable energy grid. Norway's grid is already 98% renewable from hydro and they are installing enough wind turbines onshore and offshore to match that capacity and double the renewable output and sell the excess to Europe. Clever Viking bastards. And America's liquid natural gas exports to Europe have increased 137% and God knows how many billions that's worth. So let's hope The Big Guy is taking that 10% of Norway's action and America's action and flowing that money in Ukraine. That means Biden is using money stolen from Russia's pockets to help Ukraine prove that the Russian military is a paper tiger of depressed murderous rapists, and Putin is a coward hiding behind nuclear weapons. Biden is ****** evil and brilliant. Think Trump would have the balls to do something like that? Trump thought Finland was part of Russia. Too bad Biden can't fess up to it.🔥🔥

Russia is refusing to compromise as well. That’s why they rejected China’s peace proposal. As others have noted, they don’t even control all of the regions that they ‘annexed’, yet insist that they ‘belong’ to them.

Reply to comment by ReverseCarry in Ukraine war: Zelensky says situation in Bakhmut worsening by jacobhong
Why would Ukraine, who is getting to the point of mobilizing old men, women and students invest so much manpower in the Bakhmut "meat grinder" if it weren't important?
Either they're strategically insanely bad, or it was worth throwing all that people in.

No clue, I don’t speak to understand Russian logic. Just know they were actually concerned for once rather than blaming nazi Jewish people.
