    Fantana'd

     

    Careful!  I posted the exact same thing, word for word, and Blacklab warned me for a point. Evidently it's ok for guys like Fantana to creep out of the CR and shit all over threads.

    Killing women, children, and journalists? They were, unfortunately.

     

    Were these women and children exposed because terrorists were hiding out amongst them? Hiding in Schools, hospitals, and civilian buildings? Or do you think these weren't just rare occurrences perpetrated by individual units/soldiers who were suffering ptsd from the effects of brutal city fighting. We do know that Israel has prosecuted soldiers for committing crimes on the battlefield... has Hamas?

    IDF are shooting toddlers and young adolescents in the head and chest daily. This is well documented by trauma surgeons volunteering over there. Targeted shooting of children is not part of war. 
     

    I’m going to neg every post you make on this thread going forward. If a couple other posters do the same and you do your part you can be gone by this evening 

     

    Neg posting because you disagree with the points of another poster? Points posted sans cursing or trolling? Seems mature and even handed. Perhaps you would feel more comfortable in the threads on CR?

    I didn't realize Lambert couldn't speak English.  That makes sense now because he was fucking terrible.  It's unwatchable if you are over 13 years old.  Great idea though.  I'd rather see it as a series than another movie.

    So we slash our govt spending… to give $30bn to Iran? Or is that $30bn just frozen assets being released?

    By the law of Republican bullshittery, we have to say it's giving Iran $30bn.  No nuance

    Donald J. Trump wants to give Iran $30 billion

     

     

    Evidently the plan is for the Arabs to pay for it

    Iran doesn’t want a war with the U.S., they communicated where they were attacking beforehand.

    The war's over, but its all about the friends we made along the way, right?

    "Video release date: June 16, 2025"

    LOL 

     

     

    Yes, his Patreon members get them a week earlier. I'm sure he'll have an update after the bombings, though our mentioned oil independence won't have changed.

    Yes because the GOP has shown itself to be leakproof right

     

    It absolutely has not, however... only GOP senators were briefed, and nothing specific leaked. Relative to past congressional leaks, it was a pretty tight ship.

    Notably, Intel is being withheld internally from those who are statutorily supposed to be seeing and advising based on it. If you're not in the Party, then your elected office means nothing

    Withhding Intel from the gang of eight is just further dissolving the checks and balances, as we are flying full speed towards a shooting war without the consent of the governed. Wonderful.

     

     

    I think they were trying to avoid leaks

    don't get the scene with Perrin at the end - After her speech, Mon Mothma is a fugitive, public enemy #1.  Yet a year later, Perrin is just partying around Corusant at the end, banging the crime dude's wife?  They would have locked him up 5 seconds after that speech and probably exectured him shortly thereafter.  Am I missing something?  A shot of him in a jail cell makes more sense

    There was a deleted scene that explains it all. Basically Perrin always knew what Mon was up to, and covered for her to the ISB. Sculden owned a broadcast channel that, when ordered, refused to cut the feed to Mothma's speech to the senate, which is why the imperials were scrambling to cut power to the senate chamber. Perrin and Sculden's wife both lost their spouses to the rebellion, which better explains them being together later.


    There are videos and interviews on yt and the net, from the episode writer, and Gilroy, talking about it. Some were linked a couple of pages back in this thread.

    Should have left this scene in 1

     

     

    No, it was a good cut. The roof jump scene, and the shooting range scene, established the "crazy and good a shot" traits, and were better scenes.

    There's always a reason. Capturing control of their natural resources is a strategically +EV play for the US and it would make a bunch of shitty rich assholes even richer. That's the point, that's always been the point of our Middle East policy and Israel serves its purpose as our attack dog to that point.

    I don't disagree with the points about Iran and I'd love to see the mullahs fuck off and die, like I've said many times, but we all know how it will end up in the end if the West facilitates regime change. Maybe it'll buy us another decade or two of relative stability before history inevitably repeats itself.

     

    This logic is as wrong as it is facile.
