US Erection 12 *AND* 16 *AND* 20 *AND* 22 *AND* 24 *AND* Beyond

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Eby is jealous.
Over the Internet, you can pretend to be anyone or anything.

I'm amazed that so many people choose to be complete twats.

U.S. Will Send 300 Tren de Aragua Gangsters to El Salvador — They Now Face a Fate Worse Than Death

Hundreds of Venezuelan gangsters are facing a fate worse than death in one of the world’s most notorious prisons.

300 members of the Venezuelan transnational gang, Tren de Aragua, will be deported from the United States to El Salvador as part of a $6 million agreement between the two countries.

These violent gangsters will now be transferred to El Salvador’s mega-prison, Terrorism Confinement Center (CECOT), which houses 40,000 inmates in some of the most brutal conditions in the world.
Lord Trump doesn't fuck around...
None of these people have been convicted in the US. Trump is using military power to bypass judicial due process in a non-military criminal context.
Yeahno, I'm sure your Tren de Aragua pals are being deported in a completely legal manner...

5thhorseman wrote: Mon Mar 17, 2025 11:33 am And when a judge orders the deportations to stop, they go ahead anyways. Contempt of court, but who's going to support impeachment?
Yeahno, no "contempt of court" here.

The planes were already in international air space by the time the judge made his ruling. Too late.

This notoriously anti-Trump judge said he wanted a delay to contemplate the legality of this move.

The Trump admin has said they will not proceed with more of the same until they give the judge his day in court.

Although this judge (James Boasberg) will apparently be hit with articles of impeachment this week.

I see. You don't believe in due process.
Yeahno, these blokes received all the due process they had coming to them...

So apparently there are "no deposits of rare-earth ore in Ukraine known to be minable (sic) in an economically viable way."

https://spectrum.ieee.org/ukraine-rare-earth-minerals

So what the fuck was Trump on about?

Apparently the US has "substantial deposits of rare earth ore, in California, Alaska, Wyoming, Georgia, and Texas, among other places."

The word don is also used to refer to the head of a mafia family or syndicate. This sense of don is also sometimes used as a title.

Real-life examples: Actor Marlon Brando played Vito Corleone, the don of the fictional Corleone family, in the film The Godfather. Carlo Gambino was the don of New York City’s Gambino crime family.
Used in a sentence: The police arrested several low-ranking members of the crime family but could never get evidence against the don.

Zelensky is still trying to send troops into the cauldron but they're being mowed down at the Sumy border.
Yeahno. Unfortunately Nato does not have boots on the ground.
I wish they did. The war would be taking a very different direction.

Ukraine has also categorically denied that their troops in Kursk have been surrounded.
The Russians are slowly regaining territory there though, and the Ukrainians have had to retreat from several of the towns they had captured.

As elsewhere, Russian casualties are much higher than the Ukrainian ones. Roughly two Russian casualties per Ukrainian.
https://www.economist.com/graphic-detai ... th-russias
This is logical, as they use their infantry as cannon fodder and just keep sending them forward until they capture the target, relying on the knowledge that they outnumber the Ukrainians. The Ukrainians are more careful with their troops, knowing it is a scarce resource.

It is still better than the Russians fared in the Finnish winter war, where their casualties were roughly five times higher than Finland's.

They're not there officialy Per if they are there at all but it is known that Western personnel is there unofficially, this has been acknowledged by US officials. They are required to be there to operate high end weaponry like HIMARS and ATACMS systems. Some of them have been taken prisoner already at least according to the Russians.The truth will come out in the end. after hostlities finally cease.

The kill ratio you cite doesn't make sense given the disparity in fire power. We have a good estimate of Russian casualties from the excellent Mediazona/BBC project here : https://en.zona.media/article/2022/05/2 ... es_eng-trl

Ukrainian casualties are impossible to verify. but I would say that you're getting you information inderectly from the Ukrainian givernment which seems o be what Western media relies on. According to Russian and Ukrainian war bloggers and mappers Ukraine only retains one village in Kursk on the Sumy border at this point and many are trapped trying to escape. These reports come from various Telegtram channels. A good pro Ukraine channel I recommend is Rezident.

For an exhaustive survey of Western mercenaries captured, I would recommend the Telegram channel Track A Nazi Merc. A lot of Colombians for some reason.

Yeah, this is the concern among traditional US allies. It seems this US government is intent on abandoning the ideals of Western Democracy and instead alligning itself with autocracies like Russia and North Korea.

This is the final paragraph of an editorial in Dagens Nyheter (one of the leading newspapers in Sweden) last Sunday:
Many Europeans wonder why Donald Trump is treating his friends so poorly. The answer is simple: we are not his friends. He attempts to treat Europe, Canada and other allies as subjects, whose purpose is to obey Washington and strengthen the USA economically. Not far from the mindset with which the Soviet Union used to treat the republics and countries they considered part of their sphere of interest. This is how Trump views the Western World.

There is no reason why half a billion Europeans should take orders from a megalomaniac in the white house. And when it comes to the USA's economical warfare against Europe the conclusion is inevitable: do as Doug Ford - hit back, don't surrender.
https://www.dn.se/ledare/peter-wolodars ... n-svaghet/

This is a newspaper that not that long ago argued in favour of Sweden joining Nato. :eh:

And here is a brief summary of the situation by the conservative former PM of Sweden, Carl Bildt:
