It is a military base. They are not going to let event planners come with their own staff, only the soldiers can do this work.
The calls for murder of Putin and/or Trump are so stupid and emotional reactions. Killing a foreign diplomat is neither easy nor profitable. People really think killing Putin would stop the war, it won’t. It might actually legitimise the war for Russian public. And why kill him while he is on a peace discussion summit? Don’t you want the war to end?
I realized that the western slide into fascism was inevitable at the point when the entire western “left” fully internalized the fascist world view of no holds bared civilisational war between Us (the good guys) and them (the foreign evil), because They are the cause of all evil and thus anything we do to fight them is justified.
I started noticing this when Russia was sanctioned and its assets freezed. What Russia did was wrong but weaponising financial system was a major breach of trust. A lot of countries around the world took notice and started repatriating gold and buying gold, moving away from the dollar. Now the US is panicking in a way and wants to maintain its hegemony.
Of course not - Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy. Have you not seen that move with the IDF Woman? The only way to end war is to kill everyone you don’t like! Peace just means you have to go to war again later to finish the job!
“Pacifism is trafficking with the enemy” is point 9 from Umberto Eco’s “Ur-Fascism” essay. It goes together with point 11, where the idea of a permanent war is manifested as a cult of death. It’s short, and an excellent read.
The move is the first new Wonder Woman, staring Gal Gadot, where the plot is WWI, and follows her trying to kill Ares, God of War, who is responsible for the war. In the plot twist, Ares is revealed to be a diplomat working on an armistice, because (I am not making this up) “when you make peace, you can go to war again, so, really, negotiating peace is warmongering”, and apparently nobody stopped to think through the implication that we now see unfolding in Gaza.
It’s a constant thread I see ever more strongly in “the discourse”: there is no disagreement, there is no compromise, there is no negotiation with terrorists - you are either to destroy the enemy, or die trying. Well, have other people die for you, anyway.

Amazing that you’re being down voted for not wanting the US to commit blatant perfidy.
People are emotional over this. They have lost the plot.

I literally understood zero of what you said. I am not aware of any of the things you mentioned. I don’t even know if you are being sarcastic
I am.

This is the part that most people miss when they support wars in foreign lands.
