Calling her journalist is a stretch. She is the token woman mouth piece of the Ayatollah regime. When the Zan zendegi azadi protests were going on, she called for the protestors to be shot.
She is objectively an evil person who is now sitting in the bed she helped make.
Israel is bad and this unprovoked attack is a move by Netanyahu and Trump to distract from their domestic problems. But in the giant pile of shit that this situation is, that bitch getting scared is one of the few nuggets of pure karma.
I hope Khamenei dies too btw. Is that a problem too?
German law says that if you are in Germany, you can be tried for crimes against humanity anywhere.
After he has served his sentence he may return to Syria to be tried there or the Syrian government may petition for his extradition before his sentence is up. Note that he can not be extradited if he's under threat of receiving the death penalty at the destination. But all that is theoretical.
Yes. Iranians hate their government and want regime change, it's dubious wether this will help. Most likely it will be used by the regime for more crackdowns and cheap propaganda.
It is dubious wether bombing from afar can even achieve the stated goal (stopping the nuclear program). Hoping it will somehow magically bring about regime change is a stretch.
I agree. People generally are mature enough to keep meta knowledge from tainting their characters actions. To clarify: I don't mean meta knowledge like HP totals if enemies or similar. Not using that kind of information would be against the spirit of the game (IMHO). But having a character act on information that is explicitly not available to that character (but may be to others).
Just to be clear: When you build a nuclear plant you always have a massive environmental and public health liability to deal with. It's just that "if things go sour" the liability is also not producing electricity.
Claiming the BfV is biased against the AfD has to be your attempt at satire. The same BfV that was run by Maaßen for 6 years? The same BfV that covered up their involvement with the NSU?
For the assessment of the BfV the publicly stated policy goals of the AfD may or may not have mattered (if I wanted to destroy German democracy I wouldn't write that into my election program either). The BfV has come to the conclusion that the AfD's actual goals are incompatible with the FDGO, because they are based on their understanding of what "German" means (which for the AfD is primarily an ethnic designation).
Here are two examples of policies that the AfD fought for (its from their Grundsatzprogramm):
No more citizenship for persons who are born in Germany and reach adulthood while living here unless one of their parents is German. This is discrimination based on ethnicity. This violates Art.3 Abs. 3 of the Grundgesetz.
AfD wants to suspend the right to Asylum. This violates Art 16a, Abs 1 of the Grundgesetz.
The report was intended for publication at a later date specifically because it had not passed the full review process yet. That's why it's not public. A news magazine with a reputation for investigative reporting (think German NYT but a bit more conservative leaning) has gotten their hands on at least part of the report and chose to write about it.
That is why the report is not public (yet), because it is still undergoing the internal audits you are asking for.
Yes it matters how it's done. And they are trying to do it right. How the report got to the magazine and the motives of potential leakers are pure speculation at this point.
From what I have read (hence from what is known) it's a 1000 page document compiled by an organisation that has had it in the past trouble when it came to persecuting right wing extremism (they covered up their involvement with a right wing terror group and a former head of the BfV was kicked out for passing information about the early stages of this investigation into the AfD to the AfD, to name just two recent examples).
If such a report makes it through such an organisation I expect it to hold more than just hear say and speculation.
no legal implications follow from this report,
That is not entirely correct. If the BfV internally accepts the report as factual it can use a wider array of tools to observe and investigate the AfD. It's content could (again, after the review process has been completed) be published and used as evidence for administrative and legal proceedings of whatever nature. (eg a prospective teacher was prohibited from joining the Bavarian education system because of her left wing extremist political views. If the AfD is classified as a right wing extremist organisation the same could happen to AfD members).
The Bundesverfassungsschutz has released a 1000 page report detailing their investigation and assessment. I find it unsurprising that the AfDs advertising material for an election hides their anti democratic aspects.
No. Banning opposition parties BECAUSE THEY ARE OPPOSITION PARTIES would be undemocratic. Banning opposition parties because they are anti democratic is not.
What you are saying is like "killing someone is murder", while ignoring the fact that self defence is a thing that happens, is legal and is moral and IS NOT MURDER.
Germany is Europes biggest country by population and GDP (not counting Russia and Turkey for population). It makes perfect sense for them to be the biggest spenders on defence as well.
Ironically the ultra right wing AfD party is actually against the rearmament, but that is mostly because they are Putin's puppets. (They claim fiscal responsibility concerns but this is a laughably transparent excuse)
A government hosted service would have to be in compliance with record keeping requirements. Conversations like this chat group are subject to the presidential records act and would need to be kept in case of future FOIA requests.
Signal does not do that. In fact, Signal can't do that (because they can't see the messages). So using Signal instead of proper government communications channels is a deliberate way to not leave a paper trail. Almost like they think they have something to hide.
I trust the French government more than I trust Google. But the good news is, you don't have to: its fully open source and you can self host. Instructions are available here: https://github.com/suitenumerique/docs/tree/main/docs
I don't think you can generalize to the degree you are implying here.
There are significant differences between how we (as in humans) act outside the family and inside the family. Somebody may be toxic, have substance abuse issues, or display sociopathic traits outwardly but be a kind, loving and caring person towards their children. This discrepancy would of course create conflict, but parents not being perfect is also perfectly normal and happens in middle class families too.
I personally know a couple of people from fairly rich families. And while some of them definitely had toxic parents, some did not. Most of them are just people. In a lot of cases its just a case of ignorance. How they react to being confronted with their ignorance is IMHO more relevant for character judgement and that is also a trait instilled by their parents.
For what it's worth, the absolutely worst parents I know are thoroughly middle class.
24h later, I still see it.
You are actually calling for a war crime (harvesting organs from enemy combatants) and your post is still up...
