My understanding is that Iran gave several states, including the US and Qatar, advance warning of their attack. Iran expected that none of their missiles would hit their targets.

If you really want to know, I’m sure there are medical journal articles and scientific research papers on why the “hate.”

I don’t know the state of things now, but a few days ago Iran had severed its internet due to cyberattacks related to the war.

Ali was a pretty smart cookie. Muhammad Ali’s one regret: turning his back on Malcolm X

Most people smart enough to join are smart enough not to.

It discounts my impression of them.

• To this point, only 37 members of Congress have endorsed any of the pending resolutions designed to keep the US out of a war with Iran.
• Instead, the Democrats have allowed the resistance to be led by the likes of Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Alex Jones, Matt Gaetz, Rand Paul, Steve Bannon, and Thomas Massie.

Indeed, homelessness in the US is massively more nuanced than “we need to build more homes.” Simply building more housing will hardly help at all, because there are already many houses & apartments intentionally left vacant in order to manipulate prices, because the real estate and banking industries are only interested in line go up.

Doesn’t this framing serve the petit bourgeois YIMBY luxury housing developers and the DNC’s new neoliberal, deregulatory “abundance” movement? We don’t have homeless for a lack of housing so much as a glut of vacancies and a lack of affordability, which are intimately tied to each other.

Not that NIMBYs aren’t problem at all; they are. But “YIMBY” has been co-opted by bourgeois/neoliberal interests. It’s an astroturfed movement.

RIce wasn’t born with a silver spoon. She’s rich now from her lifetime of work in the interests of US empire.

I was naming a non-white person. Also, people who carry water for US imperialism tend to be well compensated. You don’t have to be rich to do it, but you will likely get rich by doing it.

The state and private industry being in cahoots is capitalism.
The state, private industry, and the military being in cahoots is imperialism, the highest stage of capitalism.

Fascism is when the capitalists feel that liberalism is not longer sufficiently serving their interests.

Once more let me remind you what fascism is. It need not wear a brown shirt or a green shirt – it may even wear a dress shirt. Fascism begins the moment a ruling class, fearing the people may use their political democracy to gain economic democracy, begins to destroy political democracy in order to retain its power of exploitation and special privilege.

Maybe because you don’t watch mainstream media anymore. I don’t.

You don’t have to be rich or white, you only have to be useful in furthering US state propaganda. Condi Rice is still gets plenty of airtime.

This reminds me how there’s a world of difference between learning history and living it. In my mind’s eye, I can still see Walter Cronkite saying every evening that it’s the XXXth day of the Iran hostage crisis. And still I remember Ollie North’s trial. There’s no way I’d mix them up.

Those who do US crimes get airtime; those who expose them get canceled.
