We just casually out here kidnapping heads of state now?
And many world leaders will defend it because they know US bastards could do the same to them.
If putin kills zelensky next week then trump won’t be able to whine.
It’s not like Putin hasn’t tried that…
I bet he’s thinking about trying it again. After the attack in Kherson they have the perfect excuse.
Never mind Zelensky, if I were Taiwan’s president I’d be looking at the US creating a big naval distraction for itself at the same time as affirming that heads of state are fair game with more than a little trepidation…
First time the united snakes did it?
Well no, they did the same in Panama with Noriega
Again, Noriega surrendered after 2 weeks, he wasn’t kidnapped the same night as the invasion started.

You don’t believe this is anything new, right?
Imperialism and general fuckery, no…but to my knowledge this is the first time the US has opened a conflict by just straight up taking the head of the foreign government.
Unless, of course, you’ve got something that says different.
Honestly, idk, but they’ve done worse/adjacent things so it’s not shocking. 🤷 Just depressing.
