They’ve stuck in my memory like a red-hot poker ever since they brutally crushed, at Hilary Clinton’s behest, the Arab Spring color revolutions, also instigated by former Secretary of State, Hillary Rodham Clinton. I hope Iran neutralizes Bahraini leadership.

I hope every comprodor leadership in the Gulf are forced to drink the same water as everyone else.

I was waiting for them to get it, but you know…

I get that a lot of things are fucked up there from economy to freedoms, but boy that’s nowhere close to what the US/Palestine occupiers are trying to do to them.

I think that’s a very intentional feature, brought by the techbros who urge kids to skip uni.

As far as I know, 100% fruit juice doesn’t add sweeteners.

If in the USA, look for “100%[fruit] juice” in easily readable font.

Serve the capitalist agenda

Sen. Angus King, the independent from Maine, said it’s “very disturbing” that Trump took the U.S. to war because Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu wanted to bomb Iran. Past U.S. presidents, he said, “have consistently said, ‘No.’” Sen. Brian Schatz of Hawaii said the briefing left him with more questions than answers… While presidents have the authority as the commander in chief to conduct certain strategic military operations on their own, the Constitution vests Congress with the power to wage war. Before the Iraq War began in March 2003, Republican President George W. Bush made a monthslong push to secure congressional authorization. No such vote was attempted on Iran, and an earlier Senate effort to halt Trump’s actions after last summer’s strike on Iran failed.

This is a little encouraging. I pray you are right.

Don’t flatter yourself. None of us can easily predict how this will go, including you. We’re guessing, with a bunch of sociopaths on drugs and alcohol in charge on the Hill. I pray Yoggy is correct and the sociopaths don’t nuke anyone.

Iraq 1 and 2? Afghanistan? Anyway we see how that turned out. And I’m not sure either state is better off, despite USA planning ineptitude. I just pray you’re right, and you may well be.

Genuinely chuckled. Noem? Bondi?

I’m going to be frank, because I respect you, and you deserve honesty. I’m of the more and more firm opinion that being somewhat delusional, at least for the actual boots in action, plays no small part in who becomes the victor in wars.

But wait! There’s more!

Just do what you reasonably can, look out for neighbors, whenever you can. The etymology of “panic” should help. Besides, it’s not going to change anything. Methodical, concrete action may.

I hope you are right.

It’s not pretty.
