You’re the only one here talking about Israel and Palestine. The rest of us are talking about Russia and Ukraine. Neither of those two (nor the US) signed the convention on cluster munitions.
And using cluster munitions is banned.
TFW you don’t know how treaties work
Wuh-wuh-wuhddabout… Get a new tactic. That one is completely worn out at this point.
For our other readers, those missiles were intended for the military facilities nearby and were shot down by Russian AA and debris fell on the beach (hence the lack of explosions)
How close to the port is that beach?
When F-16?
I hope they learn good lessons from this. The main strength of the US military is its logistics, and being unable to deploy a simple pier is concerning.
Can’t wait for an AI toaster that asks me to prompt it on toastiness levels
In some applications sure, but Lithium batteries are denser. Lipo in particular has no substitute yet.
A real solution for Haiti needs to come from and be supported by the people.
Of course, but it’s impossible for them to do that when the country is under the thumb of warlords. Having a successful former colonial state helping stabilize things makes a lot of sense. Kenya has been there and done that.
Ah, this helps explain the Biden + Milei meeting. I can’t imagine Captain Libertarian siding with China.
I would prefer to see a non-military solution.
Me too, but that would only really work if Haiti had a functional government to maintain order. Unfortunately that ship has sailed.
Kenya as far as I know has no experience in operations of this type — do you think it’s reasonable to expect them to do this alone? It makes sense that the US are helping to get this up and running. I expect a fuller handoff when whatever they’re doing is in place.
What would convince you?
Americans don’t seem to understand that every time they swoop in to ‘save’ Haiti, what they are really doing is enforcing the same colonial ideals that landed Haiti in the mess to start with.
You might find the article reassures you on this point if you decide to read it!
The truth is that the United States outsourced the Haiti mission to Kenya. U.S. President Joe Biden has admitted as much: “We concluded that for the United States to deploy forces in the hemisphere just raises all kinds of questions that can be easily misrepresented about what we’re trying to do,” Biden said in May during a news conference with Kenyan President William Ruto, adding, “So, we set out to find a partner or partners who would lead the effort that we would participate in.”
Ha, sorry about that — the President of Kenya, actually. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2024/05/23/fact-sheet-kenya-state-visit-to-the-united-states/
a Kenyan-led security mission to Haiti
This is very odd, but also very intriguing. The President met with Biden a month ago, so this tracks. I kinda hope this happens just to see how it plays out.
Edit: this will also be a great test of who reads past the headline. There are going to be a lot of knee-jerk “Murica Bad” comments.
Have you seen videos of the skirmishes at the Kashmiri border? It’s absurd, like something out of a bad alternate history movie.
Targeting state media because you’re at war with that country is bonkers. Imagine the outcry if Ukraine were assassinating TASS reporters on sight.
