So you agree you are defacto siding with the criminals.

I was replying to "We ... are ... siding ... with ... the ... rule ... of ... law, not with the criminals.”

So you 2 need to stop getting upset when people say you are siding with the criminals. Because you are in fact siding with the criminals.

Well, that little story actually DISPROVES your claim. It shows that they are a criminal gang which was HIRED to kill someone.

Did Biden litigate the de-listing of the Houthis as a terrorist org in a court of law?

That being said, is TdA a "terrorist organization




The United States of America has designated Tren de Aragua a terrorist organization for over a month.

quote:

WASHINGTON, Feb 19 (Reuters) - The United States on Wednesday designated Tren de Aragua, the Sinaloa Cartel and other drug cartels as global terrorist organizations, according to a Federal Register notice, a move that comes as President Donald Trump steps up immigration enforcement against alleged gang members in the U.S. The notice issued by Secretary of State Marco Rubio said the groups pose a risk to U.S. national security, foreign policy and economic interests.


The OAS has designated them as such for years, and doesn’t recognize Maduro as the legitimate president of Venezuela.

quote:

The OAS has expressed concerns about the situation in Venezuela, particularly regarding the legitimacy of elections and the human rights situation. In 2019, the OAS recognized Juan Guaidó, the President of the National Assembly, as the interim president of Venezuela, following the Venezuelan presidential crisis.

"They're not terrorists, they just work for terrorists". They're just self contractors, really.

xenophobia


X-phobia is what brought down Europe, and it will bring us down too as long as Americans are afraid of being called a name.

Islamophobia is understanding that Islam is our mortal enemy.

Not particularly. Terrorism is almost universally political in nature.

They sound like typical criminals. They're as much "terrorists" as the Bloods, crips, Gambino family, etc. to me. None are particularly good or nice people and I certainly wouldn't socialize with them in person, but that doesn't make them terrorists.

quote:

(5) the term "domestic terrorism" means activities that-

(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;

(B) appear to be intended-

(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;

(ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or

(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and


Not applicable. They're not exerting their criminality in the US for the political-based purposes in Bi, ii, and iii. They're just thugs engaging in illegal behavior to make money.

You sound like someone who would say "the Second Amendment only applies to US citizens."

No. Your premise is rejected. You mentioned US citizens. We are not discussing US citizens, but illegal aliens.

The authoritarianism? Yes.


No, what you view as authoritarianism is simply because you disagree with the politics. You are a partisan hack. Full stop.

Actually, let me amend that. I don't think you're necessarily a partisan hack. I think what pisses you off is that people had the fricking audacity to challenge the holier than thou entitlement that most of you piece of shite attorneys have. And lord do I know. I spent seven years working for an AMLAW100 firm.

The interpretation of the admin's arguments can apply to citizens.

Nipping their silliness in the bud now prevents that.

An unaccountable Executive above judicial review is a non-partisan issue based solely in authoritarian fears.

Naw

I see the law as nothing more than a service-based profession. Like IT or construction.

Is it?

Did the Biden admin have to litigate the de-listing of the Houthis as a terrorist org in a court of law, or did he just do so with the stroke of a pen?

Conjecture and hearsay

Not only do they want to avoid this, they're double down by claiming their evidence is "national security" and not subject to review.
