There’s a lesson to be learned here behind just idiot presidents and Nobel prizes. In almost every situation, Regime change if more effective is spear headed internally by an opposition leader rather that forced by an external power.

I mean, we had an embargo on Japan so it wasn’t like we were totally minding our own business before hostilities broke out.

Korea. US troops were totally caught with their pants down and nearly got routed.

Rush Limbaugh believed that, right up until his opiate addiction became public knowledge, then again after he got clean.

No, because drug dealing in this context is hurting someone to exploit them for profit while gun dealers are performing an important service to their communities. You wouldn’t consider a grocery store responsible for someone’s obesity because they sold flour.

or both

It’s something but it’s not enough. There needs to be an international coalition that imposes a no fly zone over Israel, and an embargo of their ports, and sends food aid to Gaza and military aid to the PLO

People who become police usually like hurting people and people who join ICE were the bottom of the barrel that even the police wouldn’t recruit

Maybe the Italians should strike again until their navy actually protects the flotilla

A Democracy filled with religious extremists.

Lol

Since the Iraqi military was either defeated on the battlefield or surrendered and US troops pulled Saddam out of a spider hole to drag him off for trial and execution, I’d call that a bad analogy.

I admit I only know the highlights. It would make sense for Hegseth to focus on appearances over substance.

Having a brain predisposed to fear is one of the hallmarks of being a Right Winger

I mean, insofar as Hegseth has internalized the culture war and can’t stop being a fox news host long enough to do his job. I think priming the Military to eventually use it against the American population was the main purpose of this gathering.

He’s exhausted, his job is basically begging foreigners for money and weapons, and his family has been in hiding the whole war.

Hard to say he’s running the war badly considering that Ukraine still exists 3 years later when most outside observers were wondering if Ukraine would last 3 days.

I mean, there was tons of “we’re invading American Cities and Fighting the Enemy within” bullshit too.

I liked Inquisition alot though the behind the scenes scoop was that the development process was a dumpster fire that only came together into a good game cause they got lucky.

BioWare has lost alot of it’s talent in the last several years. There’s almost no one left that played any hand in the Success of Dragonage or Mass Effect 1-3
