    Really AP? Allies? Does a mob boss call his goons allies? They’re puppets, sycophants, patsies, and cronies. They’re not even close to being his equal.

      Yeah, the body is much less sus than the title, which seems intentionally misleading (to include other (NATO?) countries).

      I know world is a fuck, but kinda hoped AP kept it up a minimum.

      Still, a resignation just after the war (or when the outcome is known) is a good general preventive practice imho.
      Something like a ban (forever or at least a decade) for any official serving in wartime to not be eligible to run for any office position. It’s just too much idle power that can get so wrong (& corrupt) over time. This should be the rule for any major socioeconomical changes in a county (a significant war, a revolution, a transition between different systems of governance or economic systems, etc).
