Stop it. We're better than that.
I loathe the entire Trump administration.
And, I'm prone to name-calling myself.
But regardless of our personal religious views, denigrating Islam and its followers is not the path forward.

This rollercoaster must be excruciating for the Ukrainian people.
Same with the teasing of Tomahawk, Taurus, Intel, . . .

I hope the UK and EU quickly arrive at principled decisions.

You're right. (Impressive credentials, BTW)
I haven't been PIC for a while, so I was unaware.
Here's what I learned:
Biden changed it to "Missions" in 2021.
Trump changed it back to "Airmen" in Feb. 2025 (EO 14172).
A Federal Register mess across agencies.
No idea what ICAO thinks of our folley.

We disagree here.
Legislation *can* burden/benefit specific individuals to address unique circumstances.
But, I hope you're reading prevails.
I think we agree on the larger issue --

Ex post facto wasn't determinative in Fletcher.
Opinion discusses it briefly re *criminal* conduct by GA legislators.
Despite corrupt conduct (Yazoo Land Scandal), and ex post facto (Recinding act of 1796), opinion was firmly rooted in Art. 1, Sec. 10, "Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts".

Not exactly.
For over 200 years the federal courts have interpreted the ex post facto clause to apply to *criminal*, but not *civil* actions.
Expect these senators to get paid.
Earliest case: Calder v. Bull, 3 U.S. 386 (1798).
More recently are dozens of CERCLA/RCRA (Superfund) liability cases.

Wild guess of P&G's costs to file?
Presumably, they'd defend their IP for a tidy sum, too.
I've seen others' wavy edged sticky notes and paper towels in the wild. I'm indifferent to the precise wave shapes.
Can you help a naive consumer understand what advantages this filing conferrs? Thanks.

Dodd created exceptions for Hussain, Milosovic, bin Laden, and some 2002 contemporaries. Later it was extended to include others.
But, Netanyahu clearly falls within 22 USC 7432(3)
Accordingly, per §7422(a)(2)(A)(ii), ASPA can't be waived.
Regardless, city mayors can't cooperate; §7423(b).
