[Politico] U.S. to include controversial cluster munitions in new Ukraine weapons package
  • I disagree. The trouble with cluster bombs (as with landmines) is that they are indiscriminate killers. Sure, they may kill some Russian soldiers now, but the ones that don't explode (a huge minority of them) will remain in the ground until an innocent Ukrainian child gets blown up years from now.

    It's fine to cheer on the 'killing Russian soldiers' part, but when it comes to cluster bombs that comes hand in hand with 'killing innocent civilians, years after the conflict ends', which is less okay.

  • Russia reducing its presence at nuclear plant, says Ukraine
  • Grossi asserted that he "didn't see that kind of development" on the ground, but also that "anything can happen, that is what worries me".

    IAEA is not confirming it, but I think it's a stretch to get "pure deranged nonsense" from that quote.

  • Photos from Trump indictment show boxes of classified documents stored in Mar-a-Lago shower, ballroom
  • Boxes and boxes of them!

    I had it in mind that this wasn't just about a few files here and there although I was a bit vague about how many he was accused of taking. Those pictures are shocking, though - they go on and on and on.

    Disappearance of Andrew Gosden

    >Andrew Gosden disappeared from Central London on 14 September 2007 when he was aged 14. On that day, Gosden left his home in Doncaster, South Yorkshire, withdrew £200 from his bank account and bought a one-way ticket to London from Doncaster station. He was last seen on CCTV leaving King's Cross station. Despite numerous national appeals for information in the years following his disappearance, Gosden's reason for travelling to London that day, and his subsequent fate, have not been established.

    Andrew's case is one of the cases I follow most closely. I'm very intrigued as to when we might hear more details about the December 2021 arrests and investigation.

    What are your thoughts on what happened to Andrew?

    I don't really follow Scottish football but he seems to have done well at Celtic. Will be interesting to see how he adapts to Spurs.

  • What are your account settings set to? Mine are set to subscribed/new as default, but Jerboa shows up as local/active by default and likewise I can't see an obvious way to change it. Quite annoying if it's not possible to change the default.
