The more I reflect re: the interventions of the 2000s/2010s, more I believe that Gaddafi’s ousting will go down in history as an even worse blunder than the Iraq war. Saddam was an old enemy and UN bête noire. Gaddadi disarmed and normalized relations and we killed him anyway.

Small countries that sign open migration agreements are sowing the seeds of their own demographic destruction. High emigration devastated many small Caribbean countries too. EU free movement agreements put Bulgaria on the ropes & will do the same with Moldova, N. Macedonia etc.
@HurryRainer Wow. The USA signed open migration agreements with the Marshall Islands, Palau and Micronesia, each of which was followed by mass emigration and a collapse in fertility. Palau even had natural population decline in 2022:

You will never regret declining to say that cruel or belittling thing about another person, even (or especially) about one who seems to deserve it.
In April 1997 Tony Blair and Alastair Campbell invited Peter Hitchens to interview them about education policy. Within moments of Hitchens starting to ask questions, Blair and Campbell started laughing at him and then got up and left. The incident was captured by a photographer
