With proper supply chains you can loot more efficiently. Care packages sent back home from the front lines fit nicely on empty supply trucks heading back to restock.

It's not going to be war, Iran has to retaliate but they are not going to escalate things. I would expect a similar response to response for the attack on the Iranian embassy in Syria.

I am cautious in believing this story, the general survival rule is that a person can go 3 days without water, and 3 weeks without food. She claims she went 40 days without food and water which would be significantly longer than any person would normally survive.

Political tensions didn't cause Chinese swimmers to fail drug tests, nor did those tensions cause China to lift its ban claiming the steroid, metandienone, was in the food competators ate. Tensions did not cause China to blame Australian beef or that metandienone is not used in Australian beef production.

He has done more harm for his cause by insisting on being front and center in wale wars. The Japonese wale hunters were more appealing than him.

What's a little genocide between friends.

but they will need to protect aronauts from radiation, extreme temperatures, and space weather.

Space weather? Like meator showers?

Publishing classified info can get you espionage charges, just ask Julian Assange.

I exclusively use teams on the web on Rocky. Firefox, Chrome, and edge all work for me.

After the trade embargo, the mormans will run out of furniture. They'll have no tables to eat from, no chairs to sit on, no beds to sleep on. After a month the mormans will be exhausted and starving and ready to topple over with a single flick.

A suspended prison sentence makes too much sense. Gotta teach this nerd a lesson.

It’s like if you lost your job because you were convicted of a crime. That’s not additional sentencing, that’s just a consequence of your actions.

The difference there is the state is doing both things for the same crime, and employment is a conditional agreement.

Without any information, this is just idle conspiracy theorising.

Blindly trusting that the government would do the right thing requires a severe lack of understanding of history.

It’s not even about politicians, since from the sound of it this came from regular govt officials, not elected politicians.

Elected officials are the ones who hold regular govt officials accountable.

Due process means the law was fairly applied and their rights were respected.

Additional sentencing was added, a parent or parents went to jail and their kids were taken from them.

that would be the default assumption.

Trusting the government to do the right thing is a poor idea. Politicians will only do the "right" thing if it helps them out.

I agree with you there. The kids are not under a gag order though. Is there any other article or source that indicates a different situation from the one described here?

That usually starts trickling out much later, look at how long it took for the truth to come out about troubled youth camps.

Source? It’s an official govt program being run by a judge.

I'll know this may sound strange but just because it's a government program does not mean due process is followed. Loss of custody was not part of sentencing, these are additional conditions applied after sentencing.

Worse than grooming the kids to be crime lords? It’s a closely scrutinised program, and nobody’s calling shenanigans on the implementation, not even the kids being interviewed.

The interviews published were hand selected, the articles are very biased. I'll sumerize a different way, only 3 of the 100 kids taken from their parents did not speak poorly about their experience.

I am not seeing a reason that it would be a definite failure.

One of the foster centers is the Catholic church. Nothing mixes better than Catholic priests and children.

Did you miss my big, big disclaimer? “excepting the potential for abuse of this precedent”.

Only in a perfect scenario would there be no abuse, so it's nonsensical to ignore it. The reality is how bad will the abuse have to be before this program is deemed a failure.

Given that the parents and family have proven themselves to be bad influences and unfit guardians, why would we WANT to continue exposing the kids to their influence?

There was no due process to kidnap the kids. Part of the parents sentence was not loss of custody. If you look at history the state has been a much more terrible guardian.

The mafia have been managing it for generations, so that option obviously doesn’t work.

Italy needs to get serious on imprisonment for career criminals, they don't.

We’ve had this discussion many times, though from the opposite side. School and education is for teaching kids facts and about the world, but they do not (nor should they) have the capacity to be substitute parents. And that’s for neglectful parents, much less parents who are actively teaching the kids negative values.

It's not morality to teach kids about all the options they can choose to earn a living.

All in all, excepting the potential for abuse of this precedent, I’m not sure why this is such a bad thing.

It astounding that you can't think of why government kidnapping is a bad thing. They have no right to take kids from homes because they want to "tame the savages".

There's a wealth of options inbetween nothing and kidnapping children. Education is probably the best, showing kids they have better options will do wonders. Another option is to imprison mafia members, it's much more difficult to influence children from prison.

2021 set that precedent, that was Max's signature move. Brake late to get ahead on the inside, go wide, and push your opponent off the track.

I though the only distinction was for medical vehicles and military vehicles. There is a whole class of vehicles called Technical which is pretty much a pickup with a heavy machine gun mounted to it. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_(vehicle)
