liberals never went to war with Iran for the regime change

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has repeatedly intervened in the internal affairs of Iran, from the Mosaddegh coup of 1953 to the present day.

From military coups to political assassinations to stuxnet computer viruses, we’ve been launching and directing military operations against Iran for over 70 years.

Hillary does not seem all that liberal to me

She and her husband have been in leadership within the liberal party of the largest liberal government on earth for… what? 16 of the last 24 years?

If they’re not liberal, who is?

the media was not even liberal to begin with

Liberals have been eager for regime change in Iran for as long as their conservative peers.

Bombing Tehran is one of the few things Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump can agree on.

Wow, this is exactly what Neoconservatives dating back to the Nixon Administration Vladimir Putin has always wanted

if i rob and kill my elderly neighbor to steal their stuff to help pay rent

It’s rob the neighbor or be the neighbor that gets robbed.

This isn’t a real choice from a material sense. It’s selection bias. You’re mad at a random sampling of people forced into a Sofie’s Choice, rather than the fascists forcing this choice on them.

You’ll always look stupid defending Putin.

Evangelicals have The Devil and Liberals have Vladimir Putin.

The GOP has wanted to bomb Iran since Bush 41. The whole party, and much of the American business community, is fully in his corner.

Hell, even Democrats are throwing in their support.

Israel’s Accomplice

Deliberately instigated violent opposition so they could press and collect on civil lawsuits.

Many members of the group are trained lawyers, including founder Fred Phelps, and they have historically filed hundreds of lawsuits—mostly over picket rights and alleged civil rights violations—aiming to secure settlements or court-awarded legal fees.

They were quite literally professional trolls. Baiting people into attacking them by criticizing dead soldiers had nothing to do with ideology. It was purely part of their grift.

I mean, it’s double edged.

You’ve got folks in desperate poverty for whom enlistment is designed as a release valve.

But then you’re being paid to crush people more desperate than you.

So do you want to be the half of lumpen labor paid to do the killing or the half that’s being killed? I don’t like the people doing the killing, but I can’t blame from for not wanting to be on the other side of the barrel. There’s no good choice to be made when you’re in the bottom rung of the social order.

At the end of the day, what we really need is a mid level officer’s revolt. Where is the American Chavez? Where is the American Gaddafi?

That‘s just how Chinese propaganda operates

A KGB spy and a CIA agent meet up in a bar for a friendly drink

“I have to admit, I’m always so impressed by Soviet propaganda. You really know how to get people worked up,” the CIA agent says.

“Thank you,” the KGB says. “We do our best but truly, it’s nothing compared to American propaganda. Your people believe everything your state media tells them.”

The CIA agent drops his drink in shock and disgust. “Thank you friend, but you must be confused… There’s no propaganda in America.”

If I haven’t beaten game one, it’ll be more than a month.

But synchronizing patch releases so you’re not bombarded with notifications would be nice, yes.

In a competent administration, this would be inspiring.

No it wouldn’t. It’s always been a dumb idea to get around public mass transit.

Sucks to be in Texas, the Silicon Valley alpha testing hub of the US.

Linux guy whipping out the “Actually, it’s a feature not a bug” line is very funny.

Washington has been aware of the problem for months. One US official told Semafor, “It’s something we expected and anticipated"

The same official stressed that the United States is not facing similar shortages and retains significant interceptor reserves. The comment comes amid growing concern that a prolonged war with Iran could rapidly drain missile defence supplies.

Israel: “Our plan is to ally with a bunch of fascist evangelical antisemites and conquer the Middle East”

America: shoves Israel in front of a barrage of ballistic missiles

Israel: “Who could have predicted this?!”

America: “It’s literally in the Bible that you get destroyed. Duh.”

That’s tech speak for “never”

The technology, developed by Borui Kang Medical Technology (Shanghai), is designed to restore hand-movement capabilities in individuals suffering from paralysis.

Specifically, the system targets patients with quadriplegia resulting from cervical spinal cord injuries, enabling them to regain hand-grasping ability through the use of a specialised glove.

Incredible technology, nonetheless.

But crazy to think this would be a commercial public service any time soon

There should be a law against OS updates more frequent than once a month

The devil Putin Made Me Do It

Sure, in theory they would want the Iranian people to thrive

Like they encourage Egyptians and Jordanians to thrive?
