This news broke a few days ago and promptly received broad bipartisan backlash. It doesn’t seem clear if this buyout will be tolerated on national security grounds.

Things like this should ruin a career and tarnish a name.

“Free speech absolutist”

As a New Yorker even I cannot pretend that the Canadian view of Horseshoe Falls isn’t better.

It’s indeed a tragic situation. The deaths in Colorado might be related to the fact that the area is a popular training location for cyclists, particularly because of the high elevation, which can be beneficial for training the body to perform under lower oxygen conditions. This could lead to a higher number of cyclists on the roads, and subsequently, a greater risk of accidents.

I think it’s even simpler than that. China/SEA offered better profits for western businesses, who had no problem with squandering their nations wealth on sweat shops in a far away land. Politicians stand idly by while it happens as long as their paychecks arrive on time.

I’m sure the politicians who sold out their people are doing nicely for themselves.

All I take from what you're saying is that it is easy for you to morally justify murdering someone that you don't know, much less harmed you.

No one is forcing Singapore to execute those who the rest of the world views at petty criminals.

We’re not talking about drug kingpins here.

Macron’s move might well be a double-edged sword. On one hand, seeking cooperation with the BRICS nations can diversify France’s diplomatic ties. On the other, if he continues to alienate his traditional Western allies and domestically neglects the concerns of laborers and unionists, he risks finding himself without a robust support network when it’s most needed. The disenchanted masses, left with their “eat the rich” signs, could become his only audience.

Singapore hanging its weight on an antiquated, inhumane justice system while the world evolves towards rehabilitative models is downright disturbing. Death penalties for drug offenses are an archaic, blunt instrument to tackle a complex issue, punishing the vulnerable pawns rather than the kingpins of the trade.

My grandfather had GBS in the 80s. Absolutely terrifying. Unfortunately he lost his ability to walk and was forced into an early retirement.

It’s indescribably scary to watch a loved one’s body destroy itself while you and the doctors alike are wondering if this horrible disease will leave any part of them unscathed.
