the real question is: is there political will to actually go after the president for an alleged illegal action? at the time apparently not

2018-12-12 19:14:55 UTC  

"in active "hostilities""

2018-12-12 19:15:01 UTC  

How is that not active hostilities

2018-12-12 19:15:06 UTC  

US planes literally conducting sorties

ahaha yes

2018-12-12 19:15:12 UTC  

very soon

2018-12-12 19:15:17 UTC  

You would only worsen the situation

2018-12-12 19:15:30 UTC  

the point is that the obama administration found a loophole in the definition

2018-12-12 19:15:38 UTC  

The citizens could turn on the government

2018-12-12 19:15:44 UTC  

that allowed them to argue that it wasnt hostilities

2018-12-12 19:16:44 UTC  

Yes loophole doesn't mean it's legal

2018-12-12 19:16:50 UTC  

I think we'll find out soon enough

2018-12-12 19:16:51 UTC  

but

2018-12-12 19:17:14 UTC  

"this was precisely the position taken by the White House … even though at the time US planes were dropping bombs in Libya, firing missiles from off-shore and, according to some reports, coordinating with British forward air controllers on the ground. Only by the most tortured definition do such actions not qualify as hostilities."

2018-12-12 19:17:16 UTC  

i'd side with you, but obama's legal team found a way to go around the thing lol

2018-12-12 19:17:26 UTC  

hmmm

2018-12-12 19:17:30 UTC  

anyway

2018-12-12 19:18:03 UTC  

wanna see something interesting?

2018-12-12 19:18:08 UTC  

shoot

2018-12-12 19:18:21 UTC  

whats this

2018-12-12 19:18:46 UTC  

read it

2018-12-12 19:18:52 UTC  

Someone high profile has been convicted

2018-12-12 19:18:57 UTC  

and they can't be reported currently

2018-12-12 19:19:02 UTC  

one of many arrests to begin

2018-12-12 19:19:12 UTC  

i think i know about this

2018-12-12 19:19:27 UTC  

i think there is a similar law in the UK

2018-12-12 19:19:45 UTC  

Ah

2018-12-12 19:19:47 UTC  

that basically allows for on going judicial processes to remain secret until they are through

2018-12-12 19:19:48 UTC  

it was George Pell

2018-12-12 19:20:25 UTC  

@Similar Scowl Economic debate?

2018-12-12 19:22:06 UTC  

is there anything to debate

2018-12-12 19:22:15 UTC  

i imagine i'd agree with you on most stuff

2018-12-12 19:22:45 UTC  

idk what do you believe

2018-12-12 19:23:42 UTC  

i think i'm a centrist in economy lol

2018-12-12 19:23:51 UTC  

though i'm more inclined towards free market

2018-12-12 19:24:20 UTC  

there should be some regulations to protect workers

2018-12-12 19:25:09 UTC  

and then i think the state should have protectionist measures for essential industries in the country, like infrastructure

2018-12-12 19:25:59 UTC  

What regulations

2018-12-12 19:26:06 UTC  

as in just an example or so
