Minoru SabaJapan imports most of its fossil fuels, still depending on Russia for 9% of LNG needs (Australia supplies about 40%). For uranium, Japan looks to Australia, Canada & Kazakhstan.

He called for an increase in penalties, and a broadening of the scope of what constitutes a criminal threat against election officials. “I don’t know that the federal bureaucracy has been nimble enough. 💥They’re not treating it like the <a href="https://c.im/tags/domestic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#domestic</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/terrorism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#terrorism</a> that it is,💥” he said.<a href="https://c.im/tags/Bill" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bill</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Gates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Gates</a>, a Republican supervisor with Arizona’s largest constituency, Maricopa county which covers Phoenix, is quitting his job as a top election administrator after the November election in part because of the terrifying threats he and his family have suffered. He also called on the taskforce to step up the intensity of its operations at this critical moment. “I’m grateful for what they’ve done, but we feel like they could do more,” he said. “We all feel that the January 6 prosecutions [over the attack on the US Capitol] have been very aggressive and well-publicized, and 🔸we’d like to see the same level when it comes to threats against election workers🔸.”The taskforce said that the 12- to 24-month gestation period for its election threats prosecutions was similar to any other federal case, from violent crime to fraud. Keller agreed though that <a href="https://c.im/tags/deterrence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#deterrence</a> was vital. “The deterrent value of the cases is critical. Like most things in most spaces, I’m sure that we could do more and do better, and we are trying to come up with new ways to attract more attention to this work to maximize that deterrent impact,” he said.

David AugustThe threat of nuclear war combined with the work of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) have helped mean a human’s chances of dying from war have been lower than any other time in human history.
