Correct. The countries most likely to get into an actual shooting war didn't sign the treaty. The US, China, Russia and some others did not sign the treaty.

From the article...

"The official also pointed to the function of the mines, which they said require a battery for operation and will not detonate once the battery runs out after a period of a few hours to a few weeks."

That is definitely a fresh take on Trump.

The Democratic party could not even prosecute a guy who tried to murder Congress.

They could. They chose not to.

It makes one wonder if there really was a plot to murder Congress or if, perhaps, the Democrats were engaged in hyperbole.

It's amazing how much that helps.

She never seemed to do well in unscripted situations. When answering any questions in an interview, even from friendly interviewers, she always seemed to be thinking "what did my staff recommend I say for questions like this?" rather than "I will answer this question with what I believe in".

Those “teenagers” were 18 and were enlisted to the IDF

Heh. Typical. Technically correct, but used in a way meant to be wildly misleading. Something similar is done regarding gun crime victims. One misleading stat involves "children" who are victims of gun violence. Some of these 'victims' are gang members in their late teens or early twenties.

I'm not the person you are replying to, but yes, an attack on an Israeli base is a legitimate attack, not a 'terrorist attack'.

and their Hezbollah affiliation was unclear.

Why would Hezbollah distribute one way pagers to non-members? These pagers weren't for sale on the open market. Hezbollah bought them for their members only.

Hezbollah actually had a good idea to use these pagers instead of cell phones. Cell phones can be tracked, these pagers can't be tracked. Unfortunately for Hezbollah, the IDF has infiltrated the Hezbollah's communications.

Would Russia doing this to Ukraine count as a well executed precise attack?

If Russia were able to plant mini-bombs into the communication equipment distributed to Ukraine's armed forces? Yes, it would be described as a well executed, precise attack.

Armies world wide often "booby trap" equipment or ammunition that they think will fall into enemy hands.
