And one thing I've learned in life is NEVER act on emotions.


Always make decisions from a clear mind.
This is why Putin is not acting the way some of you expects him to act so far on this thread.

He's seeing the whole situation more and better than anyone else here.

By the way, the so called Oreshnik that Rat Poootin fired into Ukraine has a range of about 3400 miles. Why waste such a critical and important weapon on your close neighbour, why not just send it to Alaska in USA. Is someone afraid?? grin grin

As long as it's not on their soil.


I promise you, the day the wars arrive on their heads, they'll become the most pro peace country in the world.

It's easy to watch people die from afar and call it "our" war.

The US Senator, Tom Cotton, threatened to INVADE the NETHERLANDS because the International Criminal Court issued an ARREST WARRANT against Netanyahu and Gallant!
That's because the US has a law which empowers them to invade the Hague when they see fit.
They call it the Hague invasion act. ๐Ÿ˜†
๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

What is the Hague Invasion Act?

"The Hague Invasion Act" allows the president to order U.S. military action, such as an invasion of the Netherlands, where The Hague is located, to protect American or American allies officials and military personnel from prosecution or rescue them from custody.

Then it's fair to say they see themselves above any law whatsoever.

Every other potent country should enact similar law and let's see if they will ever sleep with their eyes closed when international laws and orders are no longer respected by equal powers .

The Third World War has already begun, - Zaluzhny

โ€œBecause in 2024, Ukraine is no longer facing only Russia. Ukraine is facing soldiers from North Korea. Letโ€™s be honest. Already in Ukraine, quite openly, Iranian Shaheds are being used. Chinese shells are being blown up in Ukraine, Chinese parts are being used in Russian missiles โ€œWhat has been expected for so long has already begun,โ€ said the Ukrainian Ambassador to the UK and former commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Even a blind man is aware of this, the Ukrainians are only laying emphasis on this to generate more sympathy and drag others into the war.

โšกAndrei Klimtsevich, Head of the Center for Military and Political Conflict Studies:

โšซ๏ธ The West had hoped to escalate using non-nuclear means to the point where we would resist and refrain from using intercontinental missiles, believing they were in a safe zone. Now they have been taken out of their comfort zone. Indeed, the world saw these images, and many were in awe, because this is, in some way, the future.

โšซ๏ธ Itโ€™s like the โ€œarrows of Godโ€ โ€” at incredible speeds, hypersonic blocks come in groups to strike the target. These are essentially two hypersonic speeds, as Mach 5 is already considered the threshold for hypersonic, but here itโ€™s Mach 10. Therefore, these missiles are impossible to intercept; they have no countermeasures. The โ€œOreshnikโ€ missile system has extraordinary characteristics in terms of metals, engines, and the speed they can achieve for these blocks. Under the casing, there are packages with four warheads or more. Hence the name.


โšซ๏ธ The higher the speed, the more energy is transferred. Therefore, this block doesnโ€™t even need any explosive material โ€” just heavy, high-melting-point metal. And at such high speeds, falling toward the target, it causes massive destruction on impact.

โšกAccording to the NYT, unnamed US and European officials have "even suggested that Mr. Biden could return nuclear weapons to Ukraine that were taken from it after the fall of the Soviet Union," which "would be complicated and have serious implications."
That has always been their plan. That's why there was talk about Ukraine using a dirty bomb in Russia a few weeks back. The US wants to give Ukraine a nuclear bomb. Russia knows that too, which is why it tested its ICBM on Ukraine.

โšกMaria Zakharova:

โ€œEstonia may close 13 out of its 38 embassies worldwideโ€”nearly a thirdโ€”in order to save money.

However, the Estonian Foreign Minister opposes the move, stating: โ€œClosing embassies will not lead to significant savings in the state budget, but the image losses will be enormous.โ€


Here, he is mistaken: the image losses are already enormous due to the very โ€œactivitiesโ€ of these embassies. They serve no real purpose. Estonia simply has no foreign policy beyond the Brussels-Washington general line. Its cultural identity has dissolved in the murky waters of liberal values. Prospects for establishing stable trade and economic ties are virtually nonexistent.

The absurdity of the situation reaches new heights when you consider the fact that Estonia has the funds to aid the Kyiv regime in the name of protecting โ€œEuropean values,โ€ yet cannot afford to maintain 13 of its own embassies. A circus, to say the least.

Hereโ€™s a free piece of advice (it wonโ€™t impact the Estonian budget): for these isolated penny-pinchers, Tallinn should demand funds for its embassies from NATO, since the only purpose of their existence is to propagate Alliance narratives.โ€

๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ฑl๐Ÿ‡ฑ๐Ÿ‡ง Read well: The two points of dispute in the negotiations for a political settlement of this war

1. The Lebanese side opposes the clause in the agreement that allows the IDF to remain in Lebanon for 60 days from the moment the ceasefire comes into effect.

In Israel, they want to stay so the IDF will be able to verify that the agreement is indeed enforced in the first two months and thus allow the residents to return to their homes in the northern Israel and likewise in Lebanon.


Senior Israeli officials state that despite the Lebanese reservation they do not intend to back down from the demand. So unless Lebanese accepts, there won't be a deal.


2. On the Israeli side, there is opposition to the clause in the agreement that talks about Israel and Lebanon calling on the international community to produce negotiations to establish a permanent land border between them based on the blue line.

In Israel they are not satisfied with the wording and are working to change it

These two controversies join the essential central controversy regarding Israeli freedom of action in southern Lebanon


It's clear now, Lebanon is fighting for its sovereignty, and unless they forfeit it, there is no deal. Only how the resistance performs in the battlefield, will Israel be forced to accept a ceasefire with Lebanese sovereignty preserved.

Hezbullah will not accept the loss. For that, pray for their success like you mean it. Because everything is on stake.

That's because the US has a law which empowers them to invade the Hague when they see fit.
They call it the Hague invasion act. ๐Ÿ˜†
๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡๐Ÿ‘‡

What is the Hague Invasion Act?

"The Hague Invasion Act" allows the president to order U.S. military action, such as an invasion of the Netherlands, where The Hague is located, to protect American or American allies officials and military personnel from prosecution or rescue them from custody.

๐Ÿšฉ @ResistanceTrench
The Hague Invasion Act is a nickname given to the American Service-Membersโ€™ Protection Act (ASPA), a U.S. law enacted in 2002. This legislation was designed to protect U.S. military personnel and other officials from being prosecuted by the International Criminal Court (ICC), which is based in The Hague, Netherlands.

Key Provisions

1. Prohibition on Cooperation:

The law restricts U.S. government cooperation with the ICC, including financial support, intelligence sharing, or extraditing U.S. citizens to the court.



2. Immunity for U.S. Nationals:

It explicitly aims to prevent U.S. nationals (such as service members, government officials, or other citizens) from being prosecuted by the ICC.



3. Military Action Authorization:

The controversial nickname, "Hague Invasion Act," comes from a provision in the ASPA that authorizes the U.S. President to use "all means necessary" to secure the release of U.S. personnel detained by or on behalf of the ICC. Critics interpreted this as permitting a military invasion of The Hague, though such an action is highly unlikely in practice.



4. Sanctions Against Supporters of ICC Prosecution:

The act also allows sanctions against countries or entities that cooperate with the ICC in ways that could lead to actions against U.S. citizens.




Context and Controversy

The ASPA reflects U.S. concerns about the ICC's potential to prosecute its citizens for political or unsubstantiated reasons. The U.S. has historically been cautious about international legal bodies that might compromise its sovereignty.

Critics argue the act undermines international justice, particularly in cases of war crimes or crimes against humanity, by exempting U.S. citizens from accountability.


While the term "Hague Invasion Act" is a hyperbolic nickname, it captures the contentious nature of the U.S.'s stance on the ICC and its insistence on protecting its nationals from foreign judicial systems.
