Data show attacks abroad often favor Putin at home, but NATO also rewards Russia by delaying membership for countries it attacks

Evidence shows that NATO often hesitates when countries express interest, leaving Russia ample time to make them ineligible. Then, when countries are attacked, NATO rewards the aggression with delay. — Summary The data show that aggression toward neighboring countries generally favors Russian President Vladimir Putin at home. The rapid improvement in attitudes toward Putin and the lack of lasting consequences could explain why the Kremlin repeats even ineffective tactics. The potential payoff is high.

The threat to life in changing the definition to suit ideology is that it doesn’t change the medical definition. One should be able to hold any stance and recognize the facts in this case. — Yes, abortion can be medically necessary The anti-abortion activist Lila Rose has said on multiple occasions, most recently in a tweet, that removing an ectopic pregnancy is not an abortion.
