Another failed lib thread. That streak is closely mirrored by Mr. 0-212

You would think he/they would get tired of being wrong.

"muh international law" - can't live with it; dayum sure can laugh at it...

there are no fair actors on the stage....

International Law is only enforceable by military might. What it amounts to is pretext (a propagandized reason to act) for those who act. T.R.'s "Big Stick" ultimately determines what passes for justice in a world filled with corruption. And whether you are on the left or right or in the middle that is the reality.

Because of that the damned United Nations is a waste of everyone's time and money. It's just a place for the losers to bellyache about the realities of the world.

Yep. The left, including Ofer, is mad not just because this was done in the first place, but also that it was done while Trump was president. And of course, they're having a fit! It's hilarious to see.

3A: They don't care. They think they have to fight Trump on virtually every single issue under the sun.

When your perceived mission is to sow confusion through misinformation (lying) there is no right or wrong from which to tire. Remember misinformation creates nothing of substance, confuses the minds of those publicly educated in the last 30 years plus, and annoys the hell out of the minority that actually can think or simply know the truth. If they can keep the fools confused and divert the attention of the informed away from their normally productive endeavors, they have accomplished two forms of sabotage at once. The best practice for dealing with any of them is simply to never respond directly to them, cite any source refuting their lies, and let the source do your work for you. And where they derail a topic report them for such. The problem for moderation in this forum is that one topic might jump to 3 pages or more in length and there is very seldom more than one board mod here if that. If you don't report "real" violations of AUP the moderators won't ever find the offense randomly unless they post in the same thread. But read the AUP and make sure what you report is indeed a violation. And remember verbally attacking them is a violation of AUP. And in the SPIN ROOM that stands out when the OP is not addressed and only a verbal assault is contained in a post.

When the tear gas of enforcement falls, it will be all violators hauled away, irregardless of political position. And in this thread there are posts which are nothing more than an adhominem and they are authored by people on both sides of the political spectrum. If one violater gets a ban for ad hominem attacks so too will all.

Cool cool. I can cite a whole slew of stuff that counters that broad and wholly inaccurate statement there.

Repeat the above. The puffery is pretty thick above.

2x Lolz.

Glad to know that 95% of the last 70 years never occurred according to you. And that the *only* issue is military might.

Funny how you miss the point continuously, and never seem to tire of the stupid fallback of the bolded above. Lolz. Quite the two trick pony you have going there. Three if you count the Beavis level name calling.

Three in a row.

Time for an update...

FALSE FLAG: Oil Tanker Seized by US Was Falsely Flying Gyana’s Flag, as More Action Is Expected Against Sanctioned Ships

Quote:More shady ships under sanction expected to be seized.

Two days ago (10), US troops intercepted and seized a sanctioned oil tanker in the Caribbean waters off the coast of Venezuela, taking the operations against the socialist dictatorship to a new level of escalations.

So far, we’ve had limited information over the Nigerian ‘Skipper’ ship, other than the fact that it was sailing from Venezuela to Cuba, and that it was sanctioned for transporting both Venezuelan and Iranian oil.

But now, we find that the crew was navigating the tanker under false pretenses.

Reuters reported:

“Guyana’s maritime authority said on Wednesday that supertanker Skipper carrying Venezuelan oil, which was seized by the United States, was falsely flying Guyana’s flag.

‘The Maritime Administration Department has observed the proliferation and unacceptable trend of the unauthorized use of the Guyana flag by vessels that are not registered in Guyana’, it said in a statement.”

Reports arise that the US is preparing to intercept more ships transporting Venezuelan oil, increasing pressure on dictator Nicolas Maduro.

Another Reuters report:

“The seizure was the first interdiction of an oil cargo or tanker from Venezuela, which has been under U.S. sanctions since 2019. It came as the U.S. executes a large-scale military buildup in the southern Caribbean and as U.S. President Donald Trump pushes for Maduro’s ouster.

The latest U.S. action has put shipowners, operators and maritime agencies involved in transporting Venezuelan crude on alert, with many reconsidering whether to sail from Venezuelan waters in the coming days as planned, shipping sources said.

Further direct interventions by the U.S. are expected in the coming weeks targeting ships carrying Venezuelan oil that may also have transported oil from other countries targeted by U.S. sanctions, such as Iran, according to the sources familiar with the matter who declined to be named due to the sensitivity of the issue.”

I guess you dont notice the ratio around here. Lolz. But why not complain about three responses to 8 howlers jumping up and down and screaming different things. Quite the insight there, pardner. Amazing those basic underlying facts dont bubble through your need and want to type the above. Or, maybe its not so amazing given how you typically act..... Glad it made the other howler twerps happy as well.....

I love that they were flying a false flag of a country that's never heard of them and liberals are still crying.

I would love for a new law to be enacted. Fake sympathy for terrorists and drug traffickers killing our citizens would become a felony where if sympathy expressed on behalf any perp subsequently convicted would result in a sentence for the damn reporter. They should ask for facts and quit taking stances in support of the narco-terrorists. It's our people who ultimately pay them! They should show more concern for dead kids overdosed on fentanyl than for a high speed boat that couldn't possibly fish and doesn't have a live well. If you are that damned stupid you don't need to be on TV working for the news! Maybe you are better suited for a Soap or the View.

It isn't so much "jumping up and down and screaming" as it is laughing at your dumb ass. International Law!
