Out of morbid curiosity, I did some math.

14,000 Mark 84 bombs each containing 429 kg of Tritonal comes to 6,006,000 kgs.

Tritonal is approximately 18% more powerful than TNT alone.

So we multiply by 1.18 to come to TNT equivalence of 7,087,080 kgs divided by 1000 to get metric tons of TNT (7087.08) which is the unit used for nuclear explosive yield.

the approximate energy released in the detonation of a metric ton (1,000 kilograms) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TNT_equivalent

Using the NukeMap website, you can see the equivalent damage radii of a 7087.08 KiloTon detonation overlaid on any place around the world. https://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/

At a unit cost of $16,000, 14k bombs comes to $224,000,000.

Here is the detonation overlaid on Washington DC: https://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/?&kt=7087&lat=38.8946925&lng=-77.0218993&airburst=0&hob_ft=0&psi=20,5,1&zm=11

Is this so that the conscripts will be able to read the US weapons’ user manuals?

Ya, just saw the headline about anti-tax protesters shot dead. Interesting context to say the least.

The article glosses over the real reason for this, which is that Argentina is on an inflation rocket ride due to the new libertarian leadership. Getting paid in currency that is being continually devalued on a daily basis is worse than just getting the beef. China is the world’s largest market for beef.

Time + gravity + chemistry + physics = hot stirring clumpy rock stew

As the stew goes from hot to warm over millions of years things settle into some interesting patterns. The highest concentrations of known gold geological formations happen to be on the oldest pieces of the earth’s crust btw.

A learned individual has defected from the evil regime’s empire to the land of liberation to help build a brighter future.

After explaining how “Israel” deliberately and systematically committed war crimes against Palestinians, Khan emphasized, “As I also repeatedly underlined in my public statements, those who do not comply with the law should not complain later when my Office takes action. That day has come.”

Karim Khan telling genociders ‘you’ve fucked around, now is the time of your finding out’

According to the IDF’s website, 44 of the soldiers killed in Gaza as of Wednesday - 15% of the total - died as a result of what it describes as “operational accidents”.

This seems really high.

Shredding the last shred of plausibility of not being a genocidal state

The USA has by far the largest prison population in absolute terms and per capita. You have no idea what you are saying.

There seems to be a clear pattern of the US supporting far right power in almost every instance regardless of which party is in power. Wonder what that’s all about.

Stephen Stanley, chief US economist at Santander Bank, said that any impact was likely to be small. “The biggest deflationary force in goods prices here of late has been used vehicles, which has nothing to do with China,” he said.

BYD, China’s biggest carmaker, recently announced price cuts of between 5 and 15 per cent for its electric vehicles in Germany, after Mercedes-Benz warned late last year that its profits were being hit by a “brutal” price war in electric vehicles.

Citigroup analysts said this month that falling prices in China could help to hasten moves by central banks in emerging markets to cut interest rates this year, particularly in countries that consume relatively large shares of Chinese goods.

“We as investors are only just starting to connect the dots” on how falling prices imported from China might play out across markets, said Luis Costa, global head of emerging markets sovereign debt strategy at Citigroup. “The question is the magnitude.”

Every technology that China invests in developing for themselves has ultimately improved access to that tech in the global south beyond anything the west has done. Solar and smart phones being the first two examples with high speed rail coming along too. This will likely follow a similar process. I’m excited to see where this leads.

Trying to escape culpability from ordering a hit on a whistleblower most likely.

China is supporting Russia who are waging a war resulting in civilian casualties!

but the civilian casualty rate is like 10+ times worse in the war [actually a genocide] that the USA is directly supporting

This is going to boost the insurance rates I would imagine. Prosperity Guardian is going to be spending money on protecting a handful of the most risk-tolerant ships/crews. The only other traffic will be non-genocider/enablers stuff that won’t be targeted anyway.

Makes me wonder if BRICS dedollarization is going to become the economic stick wielded against the genociders and their enablers. They seem very dedicated to isolating themselves from the vast majority of the rest of the world.
