  1. That or they're keeping their powder dry after recognizing the strikes for the farce that they were. I say wait at least a month after a major event before drawing any conclusions about victory, success, strength, or weakness. We've gone from "complete and total obliteration" to "minor setback" in a matter of hours. Not everything deserves an Israel-style overreaction.
  2. I WON IRAN BY A LOT!
  3. Trump is transactional and he feels Israel especially Bibi is being ungrateful after we did it the favor of striking the three sites. However our uniparty foreign policy gang is going to steer him away from actually retaliating against Israel outside of angry Truths and snarky call-in media hits on Fox News. Fantana is right. Nothing has fundamentally changed on the ground for Iran since Israel started this war. Trump wanted to feel like a badass and for a weekend he got many pats on the back from republicans and liberals alike with no media attention whatsoever on how incredibly fucking illegal it was, not to mention hypocritical compared to the media's coverage of Russia threatening a Ukrainian nuclear facility. Very smart people have known for decades that those are sensitive targets with huge ecological repercussions for the region. We don't want another Chernobyl or Fukushima. The media has really disappointed me, and the bar was already incredibly low.
  4. They're ice agents in robes
  5. thanks Grok
  6. I thought this was a puddle brain take about Ukraine
  7. Social media makes it very hard for legacy media to hide or misrepresent the intentions of the people they want us to bomb
  8. Iran was already at the negotiating table before Israel attacked it. Iran was willing to return to the table on condition that Israel stop bombing it.
  9. Antisemitic broken clock
  10. Van Jones in shambles
  11. Time to ask all the MAGA soccer moms with Aidens in 11th grade how excited they are for their kids to be drafted to die for Israel
  12. Knicks
  13. Asterisk Game 7
  14. Real talk, before the "total obliteration" of those nuclear sites had anyone in the general American public actually lost any sleep over brown guys in turbans at any point in the last decade? I just don't think the Islamophobia is at those post-9/11 Toby Keith levels anymore.
  15. Oh that's because the "liberal" media loves war, too. Half the ads on MSNBC are from defense contractors. The talking head defense "experts" could hardly hide their boners regardless what channel you were watching. So it's not just a Fox News viewer problem, they are just the most influential and their talking points need only a few minutes to make their way into comment sections, small town diners, and Facebook groups, so that it feels like "common sense" that Biden opened the borders to 50 million marauding savages.
  16. He knew beforehand that it was going to happen, and allowed his people to be slaughtered instead of preventing it.
  17. People believe whatever the media tells them to believe. That means if Fox News tells you it's a problem, you believe it's a problem. If Fox News tells you to care about it, you care about it. If Fox News stops talking about it, you stop talking about it. Only one political party has figured this out. That's why Dems are always two steps behind, reacting to poll numbers instead of poll numbers reacting to them.
  18. Mainstream media TLDR
  19. He wanted to jumpstart his nosediving approval rating, and it might work temporarily. Really just depends how this all shakes out. People claiming it was a great decision less than 24 hours after it happened, that's just foolish
  20. KD will give you one good year, maybe. Not a trade you make unless you want to get to the finals immediately. Of course, every team that's acquired KD since he left Golden State had the exact same motivation and every single time it failed with Brooklyn being the most agonizingly close to success. I know Houston got the 2 seed but I never felt like they be able to hang with a Denver, OKC, or even LAL over the course of a 7 game series, and I don't think they are one of those "one piece away" teams, either.
  21. yes and the companies who decided against it were driven by a profit motive, not survival
