@colonelhomsi@AngieSkys If it’s true, he’s an illegal combatant and not covered by the Geneva Convention. The implications!!! If I were Russia, I’d never confirm his capture and debrief him for the rest of his captive life. If they do that we may never know except if his family confirm his absence.
@chappy1933@Tommo1312@j_parus@campbellclaret What do you understand by ‘verify’? Clearly it’s at odds even with the normally enthusiastic NYT. Do you have a source for BBC and Reuters verification? Absence of a verification disclaimer is not sufficient obviously. Positive affirmation would be necessary.
@Tsemarkhur@Link01T @JonesBobster @richimedhurst I heard that nothing was written down and that threats were expressed verbally. Is that true do you know?
@Tsemarkhur@Link01T @JonesBobster @richimedhurst ‘…they mentioned a no confidence motion before it was filed’…
they said the quiet stuff out loud! I don’t know what’s going on at the US state department for foreign affairs (CIA) but the US is getting sloppy.
@OnceNotion @SamRamani2 I think you need to read the room. That plays in Europe too. With this Biden administration, we seem to be reaching a tipping point where long standing but hitherto silent dissatisfaction with US diplomacy is beginning to volubly express itself. Interesting times.
