This would be the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS). It’s interesting that the US is among the nations that have never ratified the treaty.

Also, Denmark has a long 500+ year history of charging ships to transit in and out of the Baltic Sea, so this really isn’t a new concept (Sound Tolls).

All foreign ships passing through the strait, whether en route to or from Denmark or not, had to stop in Helsingør and pay a toll to the Danish Crown. If a ship refused to stop, cannons in both Helsingør and Helsingborg could open fire and sink it.

Sorry, I guess I didn’t see your comment as a real argument; at least, not about Ryan Grim. You just mentioned a few other newsworthy people you don’t like (not that I agree with those individual assessments), whom Ryan had interactions with, and then tried to pin those individual’s attributes on him. Personally, I believe its good when journalists cover newsworthy people and events, especially when these topics are being intentionally ignored by mainstream media like the Mossad-Epstein connections in this OP.

Also, one of your criticisms was that he shared a post. I honestly had a real-world chuckle at that. Should we downvote or ban anyone on Lemmy for posting a Trump tweet, for platforming a fascist?

Overall, I’ve been very impressed with Ryan. He’s doing real on-the-ground journalism, such as his recent trip to Cuba to document the human-rights abuses resulting from the US blockade. Also, he’s covering a lot of Israeli atrocities that mainstream media won’t touch, and sharing Iranian perspectives during the illegal US-Iran war. I would be a lot less informed about geopolitical issues without Ryan’s journalism, and I’m thankful for his work.

No. Ryan Grim is doing some amazing work.

Israel has a long history of funding terrorism as well. In the 1950s, Zionists secretly performed terrorist attacks on Jewish synagogues and communities around the middle east. This was done in an effort to make them feel unsafe in Arab countries to promote migrations to the newly-formed country of Israel. Before this, Jewish people largely lived at peace alongside Muslims, as they were traditionally considered “People of the Book” due to their shared Abrahamic-religious background.

Furthermore, Netanyahu’s government has a history of funding Hamas to prevent the more moderate Palestinian Authority from representing Palestinians. Up until Oct. 7, Netanyahu was funneling 35 million dollars a month to Hamas through Qatar, with over 1 billion dollars transferred in total. He would do anything to prevent a two-state solution, and was also desperate for a distraction from his 10-year long corruption investigation.

This isn’t military attacking military. The US and Israel are bombing schools, universities, water desalination plants, power plants, police stations, and other civilian targets, along with those who attempt to negotiate. This is terrorism, and there is no justification for it.

Maybe it’s normal to arrest those involved in friendly-fire incidents on criminal charges, but this author doesn’t think so.

The military authorities in Kuwait have arrested the Kuwaiti Air Force Pilot, named the “Ghost of Kuwait” on charges of ‘criminal negligence’ here Tuesday

The charges and the arrest points at deliberate act on part of the KAF combat pilot.
