Not that I expect them to pay voluntarily, but I wouldn't be opposed to Russia paying colossal war reparations to Ukraine in the event they lose. Unfortunately, the only way I see that happening is if Russia collapses in the next few decades (and gets carved up by the West), or if a...

That's like saying sympathy and compassion for German, Italian, and Japanese troops in World War II would've been wasted. While they were certainly on the wrong side, they were still humans with hopes, dreams, and feelings of their own who probably didn't have much of a choice in being...

Yeah… Some day, I think the whine of a kamikaze drone swarm will be as iconic for future generations as Stuka dive bomber sirens from World War II are for us. Heck, judging by that footage, the targets may not even receive the same warning before getting blown to smithereens. :(

Okay, point taken on beheading being no more cruel than shooting, more or less. I still wish nothing happened to that puppy (assuming the allegation is true), but it seems we already agree on that.

Difference is, those beheadings were carried out to use the animal for food. Here, they're just killing the puppy to sate their own bloodlust. Second of all, just because other punishments are worse doesn't make beheading "not cruel". I may prefer it to a Roman crucifixion or Vlad Tapes-style...

Uh... yeah, it really is. Seriously, if you're beheading a puppy when they pose no threat to you, then that's cruelty — precisely because you're being needlessly brutal or severe when the situation doesn't call for it. By your logic, ISIS wouldn't be cruel if it stuck to simply beheading...

I’ll admit, I probably don’t understand the Russian cultural psyche all that well. But in a sane world, I’d imagine that even with Putin still in charge, the Russian government would crack down especially hard on Neo-Nazis and bar them from having any ties with its members (courtesy of OG Nazis...

If true, then that’s both alarming and appalling in equal measure. :mad: That said, I don’t suppose you have any sources on Iceland specifically? For obvious reasons, I assume it’s not a story NYT or MSNBC would break — or if they did, odds are they’d waffle and obfuscate when it comes to...
