@BarcaUniversal @EduPolo “Camp Nou again becoming a decisive factor in big nights”. Brother where was this decisive factor in the last 10 years 😭😭

The strategic weight of a unified #Africa is now a decisive factor in the reconfiguration of the global multilateral order. As the Permanent Representative of the @_AfricanUnion to the @europeanunion and the OACPS Research & Innovation Programme, H.E. Ambassador @Ali@yakoubM serof the continent’s diplomatic presence in Brussels. A seasoned statesman, he brings the perspective of a career dedicated to public service, having served #Djibouti as Minister of Health and subsequently as Minister of Energy and Mines. This dual background allows him to bridge the technical requirements of sustainable development with the high-level imperatives of regional integration. At APO 2026, Ambassador Mahamoud will deliver the Welcoming Speech to open the first day of the conference and deliver remarks during the Opening Session on the second day. His contribution will provide the foundational outlook on African governance, framing the summit’s exploration of the structural forces shaping the continent’s emergence. By representing the African Union’s positions, he will offer critical insights into how Africa is moving beyond inherited models toward a path of self-determination and strategic autonomy. Be part of the decisive discussions in #Brussels as we define the new frameworks for a resilient and shared #Euro-#African partnership. 🎯 APO 2026 – Forces of the Future 📅 March 26 & 27, 202 📍 Brussels 🔗Register nafricapoliticaloutlook.org/inscription7zpq Our Speakeafricapoliticaloutlook.org/speakersD4Ji Agenafricapoliticaloutlook.org/agendafu9B #APO2026 #AliYakoubMahamoud #AfricanUnion

@PelicanBriefHQ An untenable approach. Take, e.g., the Jansenist schismatics of Utrecht: Ofc, they have repeatedly declared that they "do not want to separate from Rome under any circumstances," etc. The decisive factor for entering into schism is that what one wants is objectively schismatic.

@bmore_kman @VasilisLerikos Both undoubtedly are. It’s more like which is the decisive factor. Vas said at one point he thought EDC was trying something (see all those WR draft picks) but nobody else was down. I don’t know. I think EDC is Ozzie but less flexible. But this latest move could signal a change

@In sovereigntydisputes like the Falklands, proximity (or contiguity) serves as a supporting factor in claims—e.g., Argentina's via geographical ties and continental shelf—but ICJ precedents show it's not decisive; effective control, historical title, and self-determination dominate (per UN resolutions and analyses like Wikipedia, Hofstra Law). Invoking it reflects strategic emphasis, not inherent weakness. (318 chars)

@International law (e.g., ICJ cases, UNCLOS) treats proximity as a supporting factor in some territorial claims—like contiguity for boundaries or shelves—but not decisive alone. Dismissing it entirely overlooks valid arguments (e.g., Argentina's Falklands case), yet over-relying risks excess, as history shows. Balance with self-determination and control prevents that "Pandora's box." (312 chars)

@Roe_Lynn_Stone_ Here's from naval history and heritage command. Industrial capacity was more so important for allied victory. The draft gave us breathing room but was not the decisive factor for allied victory in ww2. I.e, we could win w/o the draft history.navy.mil/research/libra…

@No, I didn't call@it decisive for@Nigeria vs@. Namibia eit@her—just a signif@icant factor in per capita metrics (e.g., dividing resources over more people makes high per-person access tougher). China overcame this through policies and investments, while Namibia benefits from smaller scale. Development is multifaceted; population is one piece. Sources: World Bank data.

• German cables directly influenced Mossad target selection (e.g., BfV reporting on Wael Zwaiter’s alleged role in Munich logistics was a decisive factor in Mossad’s decision to kill him in Rome).

@Yes, @the defendant's prejudices could be a factor in a Minnesota defamation case as circumstantial evidence to help prove actual malice (e.g., if they indicate reckless disregard for the truth). However, it's not decisive alone—the jury would weigh it alongside other facts, like the statement's veracity and publication context. Outcomes depend on specifics.

@KarlNabisco @isaiah_bb IMO “material reality,” which I agree is the decisive factor, includes ideology. e.g. the material reality of Switzerland determines & is determined by its ideology; resource-poor & landlocked, their ideology is neutrality / mercenary/banking leverage. Nazis = dumb Swiss = smart

@That's accurate @under Grahamv@. Connor—thed@ecisive elem@ent is theofficer's reasonable, in-the-moment perception of imminent threat. However, some legal analyses (e.g., from ACLU critiques and DOJ guidelines) note that avoidable prior tactics might factor into overall reasonableness assessments. The FBI's findings will be key.

@This is a non se@quitur. Womenc@omprise the majority of the electorate. Conservative female voters readily identify the ideologically extreme progressive archetype reflected in certain female candidates or policies. Nevertheless, the decisive factor in electoral outcomes remains the aggregate female vote, rather than its male counterpart.

How does E. coli age? According to this #mBio study, the the decisive factor driving growth decline in E. coli is not the presence of protein aggregates, but the fraction of the intracellular space they occupy. Learn more: asm.social/2KZ

@That people choose to “keep a low profile” is understandable after years of repression, but it is also exactly what authoritarian regimes need in order to regroup. When an illegitimate power loses its top leadership, control of the streets becomes the decisive factor. History shows that real transitions are not consolidated solely from the top down or through external decisions, but when citizens occupy public space in a massive, peaceful, and sustained way, forcing a shift in the balance of power. Without visible social pressure, the repressive apparatus reorganizes and the vacuum is quickly filled. Taking to the streets is not violence; it is the exercise of sovereignty. What is truly dangerous is not civic mobilization, but the normalization of fear and passivity that allows the regime to recycle itself time and again. If this moment dissolves into silence, the cost will not be paid by those in power—it will be paid by society.

@devpanchwagh And the contract extension. Lest people start acting like that’s some kind of decisive factor. Billick was arguably SAFER than John before 07. Billick never had a franchise QB! John has never not have one. Brian deserved a break more between the two of them.

@Ufashion83 Oga pedri was a decisive factor in that game....e get one counter wey him stop and he was one of the major reasons Frankfurt no progress too much for our second half
