Their derangement grows deeper as the cognitive dissonance builds. It's like a giant cult at this point. They'll snap at some point and go full nazi, just watch.
Nah, looks like they lit a tire fire inside the cooling tower or something. Maybe as some kind of distraction? It's hard to understand why they would do that. It shouldn't really damage the cooling tower, and the cooling tower isn't the part to be worried about. It's possible it was being used as storage and saboteurs or special forces lit it on fire.
It's one thing to agree to transit through the country, it's another to simply not forcefully oppose it. Would Iraqis die to defend Israel?
Iran can deploy over land, they just have to go through Iraq and Syria to do so.
You can also go through Iraq and Syria.
These things go slowly, slowly then all at once. There's been a lot more movement on the front these last few months, and the Ukrainian army is pretty depleted. At some point Russia is going to wind up for a big kick at an open door and we'll see things starting to look more like Afghanistan in 2021 or the final months of the Third Reich. A negotiated peace is the only thing that can prevent this kind of outcome, and Ukraine might be smart enough to go in for it before things really start to deteriorate. Even so it's hard to imagine the Russians crossing back over the Dnieper and even harder imagining them taking a defended Odessa. If they get Odessa it will be in a peace treaty, not by military force.
The crazy thing about the prison abuse stories coming out now, on the eve of the planned Hezbollah operation, is that it suggests a rift in Israeli and American politics and it looks like the American side is using this to heavily lean on the Israeli side to not escalate. I think the US election angle is significant here as well. Bidenworld has been trying to keep some kind of a lid on this thing so it doesn't blow up, while Netanyahu - maybe in coalition with Trump just wants to escalate to keep his grip on power. Now that Harris is taking the reigns, suddenly we get some more muscular moves - in the form of a nod to the propaganda media to touch this abuse scandal - necessarily coordinated with some sector of Israeli politics that's trying to avert a war with Hezbollah. If Netanyahu gets his war Israel goes into survival mode and the gloves are off - historical genocide, mass missile and drone attacks from the resistance axis, large scale resistance military formations moving to Lebanon and the Golan, political instability across the Middle East - Iraq will be a mess. It's a disaster that probably ends in Israeli conventional defeat and a high chance of nuclear weapons use.
Unless you only hear the lie intended for you. Trump is a master at this sort of thing. Maybe Harris is a better politician than we think.
It's a real outsider's take. Their ideas really can simply be contradictory and shallow. They just have to convince an army of brainwormed Pillow salesmen to chip in 10k here and there by vaguely referencing something Ben Stein taught them in their High School economics class.
I'll probably vote for her tbh. I know she did some bad shit as a prosecutor, and I don't like her, but she hasn't to my knowledge done anything completely unacceptable like vote for the Iraq War or preside over the Gaza genocide. She's almost certainly a one-term president who will give up the office to whoever the Republicans run in 2028. I just kind of expect the crazy shit going on right now to be wrapped up by then, probably Taiwan too. A sock-puppet for California money seems less likely to blow up the world over American decline than whoever will be pulling the strings in a second Trump administration.
The shooter was actually in the Ad, but it was highlighting some kind of retirement program for teachers or something, so it was just a random coincidence that he was in the front row of the class when they were shooting the ad highlighting one of his teachers.
Doesn't Silicon Valley money tend to lean pretty heavily D? I wonder if the assassination was an organized attempt and now that it has failed deals are being made
The "Bring Back Domestic Manufacturing, isolationism" stuff was very much not part of early 2000's conservative republican politics. They were hyper-liberals on economics in a way that's not credible today and this was peak war on terror. His brand of politics is much closer to Trumpism than anything from the Bush era, and I'd argue its likely to be much more appealing to a broad base of people. This is pointing the way forward for the Republicans much more than the Pence pick was. Picking up the smart parts of Trump's populism without the personal baggage. The problem is it's completely superficial because these politicians are still beholden to the same elite donor base that has made everything the way it is. If they end up in power for any length of time they'll become deeply unpopular just like the third-way.
Thomas Matthew Crooks, 20 yr old from Bethel Park, PA. He was wearing a gun youtube merch shirt and is a registered Republican for what its worth. Kind of looks like a lone crank honestly. Thank god it wasn't a leftist doing a
Extinction is literally the loss of biodiversity. What the absolute fuck?
Pezeshkian is really handsome
Didn't the air force bomb a public rally and kill like 400 civilians?
Have these policies actually improved anything for the Argentine bourgeoisie? It seems like he's just shooting himself in the dick with this libertarian nonsense.
If the Krauts could invent it 80 years ago, a modern, educated nation of 33 millions souls with access to the internet can certainly make it happen. They also have years of experience at this point and help from Iran (which is certainly overstated). The chauvinism that they must be Iranian missiles is infuriating to me. These sorts of capabilities are important to Ansar'Allah and they're absolutely capable of manufacturing these. Why wouldn't they? They're human fucking beings with brains and educations. They're not animals.
