  • At first I was worried seeing this, but given the information on how lackluster the Yankee airforce’s attacks were on Iranian facilities… the empire’s retaliations might end up being unimpressive.

  • To quote Ghassan Alian, ‘You wanted hell, you’ll get hell.’

  • Are you telling me that King Trump lied to everybody again?

  • Kindly read this topic and let me know if anything therein struck you as familiar.

  • But you’ve got to admit, you wished that there were.

  • The recommendation is ‘workers of the world, unite’, not ‘workers of the world, move somewhere that’s less shitty’.

    The Chinese public would be more grateful if we overthrew our ruling class rather than moved to their country, for the simple fact that capitalism is a global phenomenon that harms both the international proletariat and the people’s republics.

  • Morons? Yeah, the Germans who support the occupation of Palestine are morons. We know that already.

  • Here is a simple and helpful tip for neoclassical liberals: if 65% or more of a population does not want something, yet their government does it anyway, then there is no democracy there.

    A government does not need to be monarchic or ‘dictatorial’ to be antidemocratic.

  • I reread this topic for the first time in a while, and, unexpectedly, I started crying. (Maybe it was made worse by how I could hear this anthem.)

  • According to Star Wars reference books, the population of the Death Star was 1.7 million military personnel, 400,000 maintenance droids, and 250,000 civilians, associated contractors and catering staff.

    (Sources herein.)

    Anyway, the Death Star was a giant military base, whereas the Islamic Republic of Iran has an overwhelmingly civilian population, and it has no interest in global (let alone galactic) domination. So this is an uncompelling equivalence.

    Besides, Carlson was likely more concerned about the expenses. Having a general idea of something’s population size is important for understanding how difficult or expensive conquering it will be. It seems that Cruz missed the point here.

  • I am sure that any minute now Herzlians are going to seriously argue that it is ‘antisemitic’ to oppose another war on Iran—if they have not said so already, that is.

  • I read the title and thought that AES referred to ‘actually existing socialism’ rather than the Alliance of Sahel States.

  • Vladimir Putin literally writes all of the Wall Street Journal’s articles himself now. Of course they’d say something like this.

    I promise that Iran will lose the war tomorrow. Those theological thugs don’t stand a chance.

  • Keep in mind that the Islamic Rep. of Iran has such things as decoy missiles.
