MILITARY ORGANIZATIONS ARE UNIVERSALLY GOVERNED BY INTERNATIONAL LAWS AND LAWS OF ARMED CONFLICT.
Can an individual be charged with civil crimes in addition to war crimes? YES!
Two things can be true, and your performative "this isn't war" shit does nothing.

It is fitting this "prize" bears a striking resemblance to the torn, broken hands of Gazans reaching from the rubble of their homes and lives.

![A page from a printed book or document titled "THE BAD SIDE OF BOOKS" by D. H. Lawrence. The page contains several paragraphs of prose text in a serif font. The essay begins with a decorative capital "T" and describes Lawrence's reflections on bibliography and books while sitting under a cedar tree in the Rocky Mountains.
The text discusses his indifference to bibliographic details like editions and bindings, and includes a personal anecdote about giving his first published work, "The White Peacock," to his dying mother, and her skeptical reaction to it. The passage continues with an account of his father's bewilderment upon learning Lawrence received fifty pounds for the book, viewing it as unearned money. The essay concludes with Lawrence's observation that his father still regards him as a swindler, and mentions his sister's comment that he "always were lucky." Page numbers [9] and [10] appear in the top right and middle right margins respectively.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:nzpxr4ptuk3dqe6jdys2ycqi/bafkreiaebr4pvjqpw2qj4dcahcqya7h3hfob24xexzes3hqc2joonw4dxi@jpeg)

The Hague is not some euphemism or hypothetical, fairytale place. It is a physical location staffed by members of virtually every nation in the world.
An invasion, an assault on and through ally territory for whatever reason, is farcical on its face.
Do you think Europeans would allow such?

The so-called Hague Invasion Act is, and always was, a massive bluff which no country, administration, or ideological brand can survive.
The fact that it was ever suggested and written - let alone passed as legislation - should have been the end of US legitimacy in the international scene.

This is how you ethnic cleanse. Where they go doesn't matter, and as far as the State is concerned, if you die there, you won't be coming back.

In an age of despotism, disillusionment, and dismay, creation has once again become a radical act - moving a pen, paintbrush, or pedal existing in direct opposition to the decades-long onslaught of slop filling our eyes and ears.
Find your beauty.

There is much beauty in this world. It feels truly hard to find it lately, but it's there. No matter how hard the evils of this world try, they will never extinguish every last bit of beauty. And for this alone, we must keep going and not lose hope.

There was a time when Trump would be holding rallies and hitting the pavement to ensure his MAGA grip on the GOP.

Sure sounds like most people just want Socialism.
Most Americans aren’t extremists. They’re just tired tired of arguing, tired of being afraid, tired of feeling unheard. People want lower prices, safer neighborhoods, better healthcare, and a government that actually works. If politicians listened to the real needs of the people.
