It's insane that a country which suffered so much under a fascist dictatorship would want to return fascists to power.

F16's won't give Ukraine much of an advantage until sufficient numbers of pilots are a trained. There are two weapons that could immediately change the battlefield landscape. GLSDB's and ATACM's are long range precision bombs that would allow Ukraine to target Russian supply lines and ammunition stores far behind the front lines, including into Crimea. They both have backup inertial guidance systems in order to mitigate GPS jamming.. which is a big problem for their current guided munitions.

As a Canadian I'm proud of my fellow countrymen for helping and accepting refugees. Although most arrive here with nothing, studies have shown they benefit our society in the long run. They contribute massively to our economy and enrich our culture. They overcome daunting obstacles and become productive members of society, and they make Canada a better, fairer and more inclusive place

The Patriot Front is one of the groups that perpetuate the conspiracy theory about the secret Democratic cabal of child sex abusers. So the emphasis here is quite relevant. It's like saying "anti-LGBTQ man arrested for soliciting gay sex" (something that also seems to happen with depressing frequency). If membership of a group is relevant to the alleged crime then or course it should be noted.

If it were a Bible or a Torah that was burned we wouldn't be having this conversation now because it wouldn't have even made the news. There is only one major religion that reacts violently to incidents like this. I think that's the point OP was making and it's a valid one.

Turkey won't allow military ships to pass the Bosporus in any direction while there's a war on. This prevents Russia from reinforcing their Black Sea fleet but also prevents Western navies from entering.

The cruise line is concerned about upsetting their passengers, that is all.

You can drink beer and wine (not sure about spirits) in parks in Quebec as long as you have food. Some people just bring a few packets of chips or cookies to comply. But the police are relaxed about it (at least in Montreal)

Your Democratic vote is the only thing preventing this country becoming a theocracy. We had one term of Trump and look at the damage he caused. Imagine what a second term would look like.

Cuba was removed from the list during the Obama administration and put back on the list by Trump. This has nothing to do with terrorism and everything to do with appeasing a large and vocal group of Cubans in Florida.

Turkiye doesn't care about a second cold war. Erdogan is using this as leverage to try and force Sweden to get tougher on Kurdish militants. In other words Turkiye cares about Turkiye and nothing more (which is fine .. most countries do that).

Both Russia and Ukraine have been using Soviet-era cluster bombs. Ukraine has asked America to supply dual-purpose improved conventional munitions (DPICM), a class of cluster munition that could be fired from howitzers or from the himarsrocket launchers that Ukraine has been receiving for around a year. They have the added benefit of fewer duds so that risk to future civilian populations is reduced.
