Highly unlikely. The International Criminal Court is not acknowledged by the USA. They wil not extradite any US politicians or citizens. It is up to the American people to take care of business. How about elections to make sure people like this never reach a government position?

Like many people I started a Facebook account soon after it appeared in the Internet. This was in 2004. Used it for a while, then wanted to erase it. I found out I could not erase Facebook No matter what you tried, it stayed alive. Until this very day. I wonder how many still try to leave.

It is very simple. Humans are social animals and take care of their kids, help each other when in need, protect the group and the young ones. This makes the group stronger and that benefits all of the group. From this social behaviour stems the political notion of socialism.

Well, the richest country? If you take into account the national debt, the GDP of the USA is around 52,000 USD while in the EU this is between 63,000 to 79,000.

How this increased the output of produce but also destroyed farming as a human undertaking. They created a society of slave labourers ruled by the Communist Party.

History is important. We must not forget how the Leaders of the Sowjet Union ruled with iron hand. How Stalin "modermised" agriculture by creating "industrial" farms from small plots of land worked by a single farmer into large areas of land worked by slave farmers with machines.

Even now we remember this. Freedom comes at a price and we should always protect this price and honour our fredom which comes with responsibilities. I hope and wish all Oekraine people their freedom in responsibility and brotherhood. After the night comes the day.

Dear Tetiana. I do not know you, we have never met in life. Yet I want to greet you from Holland, a country that has endured war in the past. Long ago, in the 16th century, we were a part of the Spanish realm. Our ancestors rebelled and we fought a long war (80 years) to finally get free.

The disapproval rate is no concern for Trump. In his own bubble he considers himself as doing very well. And his close circle of helpers laud him as the best president ever. Now, that is what matters for Trump. As long as the Americans do not storm the White House with pitchforks he's OK.

The tariff money was paid by the importers, the USA companies that imported goods from China etc. And the importers charged the USA consumers for these tariffs. And the consumers borrowed this money and this was added to the debt. That is the new way USA economy works.

If every American citizen is so good to donate one million to the American debt, that debt would vanish in thin air. Since Americans are rich, that should not be a big problem. Just tighten your trouser belts a bit and it will be done. After that, just resume your life debt-free.

Yes, but remember: all was better in those days. America flourished, people from Europa flocked in, colonised America, went west and build the Nation as it stands now. In the past, everything was better so let's return to the past.Glory to America!

Those trillions of dollars are paid by the American enterprises who import goods from abroad. So the USA as a whole becomes not richer by this money since it is a simple tax to be paid by Americans to their government.

Trump's efforts to bring together Israel and Hamas to negociate a peace in Gaza are commendable. But his efforts are long overdue and probably motivated in part by concerns about (US) money going to Israel. The plan to confiscate the Gaza strip and turn it into a playground for the rich is wrong.

Hopefully it also is true for his war. It is going on for 3 years and the rule is: 3 strikes is out. Does this also apply for his war? We'll see next year. With the backing of the EU next year may be the year of the truth. If we keep supporting Ukraine and more refineries are burned, game over.

Well, maybe autistic people should have no sex or they should have no children. Having both is in their situation very greedy. Tylenol has nothing to do with having children so leave that out.

And we all know now how that ended. With the help of the USA and its allies, Russia defeated Germany. Without this help, Germany would have won and we all in Europe would be speaking German and live under German rule. But because of this help, east Europe had to live under Russian rule for 45 years

All of them. Men, women, children were killed, slaughtered, burnt to death. Because they were Jews, an inferior race. As simple as that. And then Hitler became greedy. He wanted to have Russia too so Germany betrayed Russia and he sent his troops to Moscow. Well, that went not good after a while.

It can not be repeated enough and it is important to memorise for our younger generations. WW2 was started by Nazi-Germany and communist-USSR in 1939. Poland was their first victim and after the Polish army was defeated the occupiers (Germany and USSR) proceeded to eradicate the Jews.

Met de kinderen komen de ouders. Moeders, vaders. Getraumatiseerd, met verschrikkelijke verhalen. Met woede en haat voor Israel. Met wraakgevoelens. Heel begrijpelijk, want wat gebeurt is vreselijk. Maar kunnen wij die verterende haat hier beheersen? Wat kan dat in onze maatschappij teweeh brengen?

In most European countries it is not easy to acquire ammo. Only with a certified registration document you can get ammo to be used on a firing range. Criminals get ammo from illegal sources.

As a token of good will, Crimea could be shared between Russia and Ukraine. As a territory with a special status, governed by the local people and shared between Russia and Ukraine. In that way, Russia can keep their Black Sea marine harbour there while Ukraine keeps free access tp the Azoff-see.

So Switzerland has a very low number of shootings. By keeping the bullets away or difficult to obtain, also mentally unstable people or people simple full of rage because of some "bad day" can not start a shooting spray because they are very angry or mentally disturbed. Keep the bullet away, simple.

Switzerland is a good example. Since every army conscript (both male and female) receives his/her gun after their 9 months conscription the number of guns in Switzerland is nearly 80 % of the population. But the bullets or other ammo is kept at secure vaults at the shooting range. NOT AT HOME!
