international river

Read a random definition: term in gross

A quick definition of international river:

An international river is a river that flows through or between two or more countries. This means that the river is shared by different countries and they have to work together to manage it. On the other hand, a national river is a river that is wholly contained within a single country, which means that the country has exclusive rights over it. A private river is a river that a person may claim ownership of the riverbed because the river is unnavigable or navigable only by vessels with shallow drafts. However, if the river is navigable, it cannot be wholly owned by a private person and people may still use it for transportation and navigation.

A more thorough explanation:

An international river is a river that flows through or between two or more countries. It is a natural, flowing body of water that empties into another body of water, such as a lake, sea, or channel.

For example, the Danube River flows through ten countries in Europe, including Germany, Austria, Hungary, and Romania. The Nile River flows through eleven countries in Africa, including Egypt, Sudan, and Ethiopia.

International rivers can be a source of conflict between countries, especially when it comes to water usage and management. Countries may have different needs and priorities for the river, which can lead to disputes and negotiations.

On the other hand, international rivers can also be a source of cooperation and collaboration between countries. Joint management and development of the river can benefit all countries involved and promote peace and stability in the region.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
