Show me one place where indigenous people aren't treated like crap by the government

Well, except for all the belt and road projects that they expect to foreclose and repossess. https://dailymare.com/news/chinese-firms-now-control-over-a-third-of-africas-ports---raising-fears-of-beijings-expanding-global-reach,1269

Ever play Civilization? There are more forms of victory than military. The US is going for cultural, China is going for economic.

I note there is no information or statement from her father. Which is unusual, because it's his house where she was shot.

Damn, I thought it was the 70s. I was off by decades.

Didn't Thor Heyerdahl do this on a raft like 50 years ago?

Assuming there were arrests.

Don't put words in my mouth.

True, but that assumes 100% accuracy in convictions.

Production is subsidized by the government, so it's not a free market.

Undercutting competitors to establish a monopoly.

Troops in the field don't have cell phones and wifi, they have radios at best. A sat phone if they're really important.

Yeah the individuals probably still have personal devices (even though they're not supposed to) but they don't keep a phone tree, and it's unlikely they have service in a war zone.

Slip and hit his head

Nuclear energy program assistance.

Meanwhile, Israel and Iran both deny there is a ceasefire.

Not sure these days, but I assume they'd be in the same boat as the rest of the Anglosphere.

This is no longer a proxy war.

Obama? Try Kissinger.

First sentence:

>Iran announced Sunday that any American civilian or military personnel in the region are now considered legitimate targets

So yes, still not all Americans, but no, not just government employees, American civilians too.

But I suspect non-military people will be arrested, not treated as military targets to be attacked or bombed.

It was the only comment, so unfortunately also the most ingenious.
