"It was a Roman salute" is an updated version of "actually, the Buddhists also used swastikas." If you are using it post-1945, you know very well that the association has changed.

There are many attributes which can be used to describe the AfD, but aside its treacherous behavior it is its cynic and nihilist character of its leaders which describes it best. In reference to Russia and the Kremlin they are the most servile individuals of all right-wing movements in Europe.

This morning a Russian corvette and a submarine stalked Finnish tanker JATULI.
JATULI was moving south in international waters, Kattegatt, when she met SKR-531. The corvette turned around, started following and soon thereafter a KILO submarine started driving alongside.

The Lloyds article was misconstrued. The article stated that the ship had sigint gear on a previous trip and that it was removed at the end of the trip. No
This was misunderstood by journalists with too little time or challenged comprehension. The police statement does not invalidate claim.
