Same with our little bunch of Zeepers.
The vegetable Biden is authorizing nothing.
who exactly is doing this on his behalf?
We’ll be lucky if we survive until Inauguration Day. This is going downhill very fast.
The parties that are not part of the Mine Ban Treaty will use the mines
biden is leaving Trump a parting gift: a war.
Small wonder that he’s risen to the top, with such a keen analytical mind.
If they get their war they will declare martial law and suspend transfer of power by arresting Trump and Vance for being Russian assets.
Just who made this decision? biden and kamala are both on vacay (in the Amazon and in Hawaii). biden has dementia and kalal is a proven sub-IQ nitwit who drinks heavily.
I don’t know if this is much of a change.
The Russians have placed APM all over the areas they occupied, as have the Ukrainians, mainly former Soviet stock.
This is just a change of supplier.
I understand the use of anti-personnel mines is a war crime. Anyone promoting their use by providing such weapons to a combatant is guilty.
Biden, are you awake and listening?
I was thinking the same thing
Especially with Alec Baldwin coming up behind them with a gun.
Wait, now...won’t we need those mines at the border?
I see what you did there...
That is incorrect.
The USA is not a signatory to the Ottawa Act, which largely banned APMs.
We have them all over the border with North Korea.
We are not part of the treaty.
Today marks the second anniversary of President Donald Trump’s anti-personnel landmine policy, which reversed decades of practice by allowing the U.S. military to produce and deploy anti-personnel landmines anywhere in the world.
