They are not very effective at regime change but they are highly effective at turning countries into shitholes that can't be any sort of geostrategic threat.

The problem here is that they might be too effective. Back Russia into a corner to the point it has nothing to lose and it says fuck it and goes after the Baltic states and threatens to let nukes fly.
They're also good at making sure children starve to death and people die of disease.

I think this is why we aren't kicking them from SWIFT. If we go that far what's left? Things we have termed as causes for force like hacking, infrastructure attacks, etc. And then we are at hot war real quick.

Ironically it seems it's Italy and us who still keep the brakes on swift expulsion.

Canadians are consistently some of the best snipers in the world
He's aboot as Canadian as Kaitlyn Jenner is a woman.

It's a masquerade.

Don't play silly bollocks with me. We got wars to discuss.

There's also the issue of overplaying the financial hegemony hand.

Push it too far and you risk losing it as you alienate too much of the world.

You should free Galt. Me and him used to talk snipers all the time.
It's up to the people he threatened to kill. I think he's just on drugs talking smack. But he also wasn't targeting me. So I'm going to uphold the rule unless those he was targeting see otherwise.
I like the guy well enough but it happened a few too many times.
