Assuming they don't already have copies through intelligence sharing agreements and have not already demanded access in secret, how exactly would most countries pressure the US, and specifically this US goverment?

[-] fizzle@quokk.au 16 points 2 months ago

I don't think anyone is going to like this answer but... it's just not how global politics works.

Why would other governments demand copies ?

Australia is a close ally of the US. We don't really have any basis to make such a demand. Additionally, they're not going to give them to us because obviously they want to protect pedo-in-chief.

So the answer is, if we tried the answer would be a hard "no" and the request would damage our relationship.

[-] Geobloke@aussie.zone 3 points 2 months ago

Well that, but we're getting them for free anyway

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

Because their politicians are being blackmailed by Israel too

[-] gigachad@piefed.social -4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

So the Jews are at the top of this network and controlling the world in secret? I think I have heard this somewhere before...

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I said Israel. Israel is a country not a religion. This country that is committing genocide and being booed at the Olympics is bribing and blackmailing politicians globally and as a consequence of this country’s own actions people are starting to despise this country.

[-] gigachad@piefed.social -3 points 2 months ago

Israel has a very special connection to the Jewish Religion, which makes it different to most other county religion (if we exclude the islamistic ethno states). Israel committing genocide in Gaza is whataboutism here though.

Statements like "this was Israel all along" and "mossad did this" yield many internet points these days because it feeds peoples world views. Without any explanation why this would indeed be true and any proof, it still feeds conspiracy theories.

Conspiracy theories are more than often deeply connected to Antisemitism, and this is the case here as well. I know using the forbidden A-word will completely derail this discussion here by enraging the tankie triad and it's saympathisants. But I don't mind because I find it dangerous to leave context less comments like yours alone.

Conflating the Israel government with the Jewish people is far more antisemitic than just criticizing the Israeli government for valid reasons.

Israel is making a mockery of all of the Jewish people who have been persecuted for their beliefs by committing a genocide and hiding behind the shield of antisemitism.

If I were Jewish (I almost am, but it was my paternal grandfather) I'd be livid if people compared me to those genocidal hypocrites.

[-] hector@lemmy.today 2 points 2 months ago

Yeah they have to play the victim to justify their fascism. Don't insult our intelligence pretending we don't know the truth.

[-] Formfiller@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Israel will never be able to separate itself from this genocide. My personal belief is that a separation between church and state prevents these extremist ideologies from becoming dominant. I also would like to mention the worldwide protests against Israel that include Jewish anti-Zionists including in Israel.

This is my view of Zionism.

Zionism is a white supremisist ideology that is being used by the settler colonialist state of Israel to justify the mass slaughter of the “genetically” impure. Like other supremisist ideologies Zionism references pseudoscience to claim superiority over others to justify the mass slaughter of people who do not meet their genetic or purity requirements to justify expansion and their own imperial ambitions. Zionism is no more a religion than the settler colonialist ideology that justified the genocide of the Native Americans or the fantastical and pseudoscientific ideology of the Nazis.

[-] Binturong@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 months ago

They typed Israel, you read Jews. I think you're the one with the problem there.

[-] sns@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 months ago

The US Government is no longer a trustworthy partner.

[-] leadore@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

Because they want it covered up as much as the US government does.

[-] IronBird@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

they actually are reporting on it much more, and plenty have opened up their own investigations into their people implicated by what's been released so far

it's just that the US's mainstream news is so captured by special/rich interests that nothing breaks through the american bubble unless the powers that be want it to.

[-] BigBolillo@mgtowlemmy.org 6 points 2 months ago

Because the entire world is owned by the same individuals? Or do you really think important people in the files will get arrested or something?

[-] Sharkticon@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 months ago

Do you think any of them would trust what this Administration would give them?

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

I think it crosses borders. Call me what you want but

[-] Xanthrax@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Threat of injury/ abduction

[-] Sineljora@sh.itjust.works 3 points 2 months ago

Other countries are actually investigating them, and there have been recent consequences in other countries for the current releases.

[-] magnetosphere@fedia.io 3 points 2 months ago

So they can maintain plausible deniability.

[-] oyzmo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Unwritten rule that rules don't apply for the top; remember they are better than us ordinary people..

[-] Bullerfar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Atleast now we know why they want to create their own rich territory in greenland. Epstein Island 2.0

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 2 months ago

because its likely their ceos and high position politicians are implicated.

[-] Atomic@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

The amount of people saying it's because other world leaders and businessmen are implicit are idiots.

Not because that can't be the case. But because it has nothing to do with how this works.

There is no legal basis anywhere for such a demand. Even if you can prove that one of the victims is from your country. That doesn't give you the right to access their investigation. It doesn't give you the right to conduct an investigation inside a forgein country.

You can make a request. They might say yes, they might say no. But that's all you can do. Demands are different from requests. Demands have an implicit "or else" attached. It's not something you throw around lightly.

one: because it makes you look weak, and two: you need to be able to back it up if they refuse. EU is not going to start another round of trade-war with the US over their child trafficking ring. It's not our problem. It's theirs.

[-] susi7802@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago

It’s basically a USA thing. People in Europe are spectators viewing how things are developing, they see some collateral damage in Europe, but are expecting a big eruption in the USA… which weirdly enough isn’t happening.

[-] ArseAssassin@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 months ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

You don't publicly demand access to classified files of another sovereign nation state. There's only one world leader I can think of who'd be dumb enough to do a thing like that.

[-] ArgumentativeMonotheist@lemmy.world -1 points 2 months ago

To do what with it? Other world governments are more concerned by the fact they keep getting bombed, destabilised and economically coerced by America and friends... The fact that the entire Anglo political structure is composed of murderous, amoral pedos and those who don't mind it is not a surprise to anyone besides the ones governed by them.

[-] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 9 points 2 months ago

To do what with it?

Purge their own administrations, presumably.

But all these people have their own friends, same as Gates and Musk and Jamie Daimon.
