It is bizarre how people expect fascism to be trapped in a 1940s aesthetic. We’ve been trained to recognise it - and importantly, as a perversion of European civilisation. Nazis and swastikas are “they”, never “us”. So when *we* are faced with their modern-day heirs, we refuse to acknowledge it…

Hoo boy. 1) Trump has not designated any cartels as FTOs, but directed SecState to make recommendations. 2) Unilateral US attacks on cartels in Mexico would be illegal. 2) Unilateral US attacks on cartels in Mexico would backfire, including with respect to US-Mexican cooperation on migration.

After tens of thousands killed, Israel and Hamas agree to a ceasefire
The deal should bring the release of hostages and the drawing back of Israeli forces. But it is unclear if it will hold for long.

This is not a new legal position from Mexico, but it takes on a somewhat different significance given proposals to conduct missile strikes or SOF raids in Mexico against drug cartels.

The erosion of international law by the US government under the Biden admin (eg Gaza) looks set to intensify under the next administration, including by moves such as this to shield accused war criminals and further threats of the use of force (eg Panama, Greenland).
