Can any country strike another's nuclear facility because they don't like it? Does that adhere to international law? Do we support plans to overthrow regimes we don't like? Therefore Iran could do that legally? Who is going to take the EU seriously with such wishy and contradicting statements?

They can somehow manage to not grow enough potatoes - and (thanks to a couple of "particularities") at the same time not find buyers for the few potatoes they grow. Never underestimate Russia.

Russian commercial potato harvest: 2015 -- 25 million tons 2024 -- 7 million tons Russian domestic demand for commercial potatoes has risen a bit to 8.5 million tons over that time. Post 2015 drop? Russia bought high quality seeds from the Dutch prior to murdering ~200 Dutch on MH-17 in 2014.

I don't like that Trump has nuclear weapons. And I'm sure nearly everyone agrees that he's a danger. Does that mean countries can now legally bomb the US and try to force a "regime change"?

I can't believe anyone still pays those guys for their opinion. We have direct evidence of that competence:

This was funded by Pringles, wasn't it?

I think they're just hinting at the crypto saying "we're going to the moon". And the dollar can't do that.

The crazy thing is that they don't even bother updating their tactic or arguments. As if they think nobody remembers how much they face-planted with "they'll have nuclear weapons within months" and "anyways what could go wrong with removing a bad regime". Mostly the same effing people too.

Honestly I kinda love it. Recently in a discussion about Tesla, Grok joined and basically said "yeah, Elon is likely lying about robotaxis and androids. He'll not launch them this year."

But also having the realization that cornering Cruz with his BS is so easy, that even Tucker manages. Yet the established media professionals never even came close to this in decades.

There was literally news yesterday that the airports and flight control are thinking about stepping away from using floppy disks and Windows 95. Yes - actual floppy disks. 💾

It's Iraq all over again. And I can't believe how the media falls for it in the same way. Now we're even talking about "regime change". 😮‍💨

Again, that may be your gut feeling, but not intl. law. Also, they didn't just bomb 1 hospital, they attacked all of them. www.who.int/news/item/05... Why does Israel get defended for what anyone sees as terror by anyone else. If Russia flattened a hospital because it saw an Ukr soldier move in...

Sounds like typical Japanese lyrics though 😅
comment in response to post
Do you realize that the facts you tell contradict your own conclusion, right? If they have accurate bombs, then they shouldn't strike hospitals in the vicinity. By now we have years long evidence that attacking hospitals is a well honored tactic by Israel.
comment in response to post
You can't just bomb hospitals because you suspect some soldiers beneath them. I know that's how Israeli propaganda tells it, but it's not how it works. We've seen that Israel can strike with precision of meters when they want. Yet they also level whole city blocks: "Ops just some collateral kids".

What Lindsey and Mitch think might be the least consequential fact imaginable. They have zero conviction or influence.

Bannon and Trump broke up 5 times and yet always stuck together again. Musk faced no consequences, yet already bent the knee. It's all just made-for-TV drama.
