Good. More pressure on China to powerlessly attempt to defend their asserted reality is always good.

Would be more specific to say hamas terrorists, no? It's not like the Afghan war was about fighting the Afghanistanis but rather the Taliban

Do you mean matching now or during other periods?
They went through a long time being way way below the US.
Having an acceleration that matches the US at one point doesn't really tell any long term tale.

Does the definition of west here includes "armchair worldnews experts with honors degree in headlines reading" or government of repsective Western countries. Imho, it definitely doesn't includes the latter.

There was also a potential Chinese spying incident in a Canadian virology lab in 2019. (Although I am not sure how the investigation ended)

The number of mushroom poisonings increased by 25% in Switzerland last year compared with 2021. However, the national poison hotline dealt with fewer suicide attempts.
The increase in mushroom poisonings was due to the good mushroom year of 2022, Tox Info SuisseExternal link said on Monday. Looking back over the past 20 years, it was the year with the second-largest number of consultations in which mushroom poisoning was present or suspected, after 2019.

On the other hand, the number of calls about suicide attempts (4,486) decreased by 4%. In 2021, during the Covid-19 pandemic, the number of suicide calls had risen significantly, especially among young people.
The total number of consultations at Tox Info Suisse increased by 2.5% last year to 40,582. Poisoning with medicines and household products were the most common. Notable increases were seen in poisoning with plants (9%) and food and beverages (11%).
As every year, some 40% of calls concerned pre-school children, typically accidents. In the case of adolescents, who accounted for about 10% of calls, the focus was on intentional poisoning, especially suicide attempts and, to a lesser extent, substance abuse.
In Switzerland the emergency number for poisoning is 145. Specially trained physicians will give advice 24/7 in cases of poisoning with, for example, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, other drugs, poisonous plants, mushrooms or venomous animals.

They are extremists, they don't care. In their heads there is conspiracy and everyone is wrong and they are the only ones who are right and they'll stop at nothing to achieve their goals.

No one like to listen that their pension originally promised XXX amount will be XX amount and you have to work longer before you can retire.

Universities are thirsty for big dollar research initiatives because it helps them boost their international rankings. On top of that, Deans have an inordinate amount of say in the direction their departments go, and with budget models that often incentivize departments to enroll more students and churn out more papers, the money speaks louder than the strategic plan the administrators laid out with no teeth. Administrators get to make the line go up, and Deans get the big ticket items for their departments.
Until there’s a specific government policy prohibiting research activity with certain actors, this behavior will continue.

More empty buzzwords. In what prison can you store thousands of rockets under hospitals and schools and use them at a whim against civilians when your Iranian overlords tell you to?
Look at you acting like they lob one scud over. First of all, scuds are the wrong class of missile. You overshot on that one. But they fire thousands of them, so you massively undershot on the number. In fact, your mode of reasoning is a lot like those Palestinian rockets - absolute fucking trash that is as likely to hurt your people as it is to hurt the enemy. But we know that won't stop you or Hamas, right?
