You’re probably still good. They probably aren’t going to check where the bid came from, or even if it’s yours.

Why are people down voting you? This is a great idea! Give guns to the government that administers Puerto Rico. I’m sure they will be willing to hand those guns right back… to the government that administers Taiwan.
I think you have Azerbaijan and Armenia flipped.
What kind of connection does Michigan even have with the AR15? The only think I can find is the wife of the designer died there decades after he died in Florida. They couldn’t name it after a gun that is produced there? Are they are so obsessed with identifiable firearms that they can’t give their own designers any spotlight?
I’ve played that hoi4 scenario as Czechcoslovakia and the only reason it’s winnable is because it’s a game and the ai makes huge mistakes.
I’ve been comparing this invasion of ukraine to Czechcoslovakia since almost the start, but there are differences. Not really between the justification or the foreign policy that the Russian government is using. Between the relative strength of Czechcoslovakia v nazi Germany and ukraine v russia. Also between ukraine’s negotiated treaties. Ukraine appears stronger than Czechcoslovakia but never obtained a defensive pact with a single other country. The Czechoslovaks had a defensive pact, but it was quickly abandoned. I still see letting them fall as akin to appeasement, some vying for leadership positions have suggested that abandoning defense pacts is justified sometimes. If it’s justified sometimes you may try to find a hole to make it justified all the time. All ukraine had been promised was weapons and we may be in a position where we tell ourselves we did our part even if we didn’t do enough.
Which app, and how long ago was it?
I don’t know how many Syrian merchants would be available to ukraine. I do feel like russia may be more willing to abandon Syria than lose to ukraine. Even without russia there will still be fighting for awhile between the groups in Syria. It’s just that the russian horse in that race will no longer be in debt to them. This isn’t good for russia I’m sure, but russia has already abandoned allies for this war. Armenia was calling in the equivalent to article 5 on russia again and again. They were left to rot. I don’t know how long it would take this to pay off. I can see putting pressure on them, but if you break them in Syria, it may just cause russia to pull all the troops from there and bring them to ukraine. There’s a careful dance to play here.
Edit, autocorrect changed mercenaries to merchants
I believe there is also the bunny island
We had a tool that answered all of this for us already and more accurately (most of the time). It was called a search engine. Maybe Google would work on one
There is apparently no limit to calling a bug a feature
I thought it was a jar and not a box, or was it both?
The US intercepted just about all the missiles. Israel owes the US for that, they shouldn’t get to make demands.
The nazis argued that the Czechs did, just like you are arguing the Ukrainians did. Every argument you make for this war on Russia’s side is an argument the nazis made for themselves. This I haven’t seen anyone provide me anything else. Only ban me from ml’s news for “trivializing nazism”. Ironic because denying the nature of nazi foreign policy does a lot to trivialize it.
We could have dedicated effort to normalize relations and build good will. There really was a win win there. Instead we threw it away for internal political points
He would rather a current fascist state join them
Those are the choices though. Either at worse the status quo or the people who want it harder faster and to potentially bring it home. I would like to change joe biden’s mind, and take away funding for Israel’s death machine, so I’ll reach out to my reps, but I won’t sit out. Sitting out implies that the magnitude of this issue is unimportant. Only the issue itself.
The argument doesn’t just include American deaths, but Japanese deaths as well. You may not agree, but the us just finished in Europe far past the point where the war was effectively over, and there was the belief that the Japanese would always take it further than the germans. Part of it was the japanese war strategy. They wanted the enemy to think they would have to cut through them to the last man woman and child, to get them to give up. There was a belief that maybe a shock would do something, but there was also doubt to that. 7 more bombs were going to be ready to soften up japanese defenses during downfall. They thought they would have to do much more damage.
Edit: I messed up my words in a way that subtlety changed the meaning of a sentence.
Have you ever seen the wishmaster movies?
No one is made for war… except 007 after he caught that brain eating amoeba from the gulf coast.
