He can’t afford pants 😭

I know the demonic testicles of Meron Air Base well, having seen Hezbollah come at them like sperm to an egg, over and over in countless videos. They’ve been relentless. It honestly gets boring because the whole thing never fireballs, but each small hit adds up. Each time a hole in ‘Israeli’ air defenses opens, the hole only gets bigger, because of Hezbollah is damaging complex, interconnected systems.

Prose

After months of this boring de-administrative work, Hezbollah has finally gotten to the good stuff. ‘Israel’s’ northern air defenses today are like a ragged old mosquito net that the dog chased the cat through. It’s full of holes, and big ones. Hezbollah can increasingly fire at will, with increasingly accurate weapons. For example, here is Hezbollah taking down a SKYSTAR 330 by drone-striking its Battalion 869 operator literally in the nuts.

This is a huge problem because the Iron Dome is not just ‘Israel’s’ physical defense mechanism, it’s their psychological defense mechanism. It’s what makes the whole colonial project believable, that they can piss off everyone in the region and suffer no consequences. Belief in the ‘Iron Dome’ is belief in ‘Israel’ and neither is believable anymore. Thus the northern ‘settlements’ have emptied out and they’re not coming back anytime soon.

Eschatological & dialectic

The colonial condom is full of holes and ‘Israel’ is pregnant with a Palestine reborn.

Well, it’s certainly evocative I’ll give him that

This is all causing massive psychological damage to ‘Israel’ because the Iron Dome was their safety blanket, and now they have to face the skeletons under their bed alone. This is all because Hezbollah had a strategy while ‘Israel’ was just ratchety, bombing ambulances and homes with no military value.

Not just missiles but truth bombs heading towards Tel Aviv right now

I didn’t say he was a Marxist. I said his realism is strikingly similar to historical materialism insofar as it views and understands the world but differs wildly from Marxism in terms of what how it believes we should respond to that material reality.

Listening to Mearsheimer is so weird. It’s pure historical materialism that walks straight up to the point of being Marxism, but then he takes a turn and says “…and this is why we must focus on containing China to maintain the US empire, because that’s what it is it’s an empire.”

One of my most firmly held convictions is that Belgian beer is thoroughly overrated.

They’re either too heavy or they have weird fucking flavors. Why the fuck do I want chocolate or cherry flavored beer? When have you ever drank a beer and thought “I would love to eat a bar of chocolate while I’m drinking this.”

No. Fuck no.

And even the non-Trappist beers are just ok, usually too heavy bodied.

Vedet is ok. That’s all.
