It's time. The US should do this with stipulations that Saudis not use Yuan for trade (including crypto) during lifetime of support contract (including trade with other Gulf States).

Also, it will send a sharp rebuke to Netanyahu while keeping Qatar on-sides with US.

Ukraine should bury a few thermobarics with remote triggers under the rubble before leaving Pokrovsk. (Assuming all civilians have evacuated). Yeah, burying will significantly reduce yield of 1st triggered but that would empower 2nd.

I use open source Chinese models & Claude (US) for vibing. Chinese open weight models are perfect start points for building real use-case business models.

Europe should decline this request. If Dublin has any commercial aircraft shot down they can write it off as a cost of business & hope their voters understand.
