    If I had Q powers?
    I'd send Iran his head wrapped as a present with a Post-It that says "keep it".

    If this is true, I wonder how much of a factor it was in the TACO. :chris:

    An excellent point. I honestly don't know what legal routes can be taken at this point save to impeach everyone from Trump on down because they're all collaborators, they're all complicit, and they're all corrupt. Not that it will happen, but it would need to be done like excising a cancer.

    Good news but unstable as fuck. Expect the Israelis to do all they can to fuck it up.

    EDIT: Yeah, they're disagreeing about it's application to Lebanon. Will Trump push them back in line?

    This is what Trump has reportedly agreed to in principle. (He claims to have just recieved it but it's been available for some time). An astonishing defeat.

    The USA and "israel" think they're playing GoodCop/BadCop except there are no good cops there's only one trigger-happy psychopath who wears two different masks depending on which justification he wants to use for his murderous rampages.

    The rest of the world needs to join together and stop them because 'Murica's citizens are too brainwashed to do it themselves and most of the "israelis" are also psychopaths who cheer on their government's genocidal maliciousness.

    The sooner the better.

    Do people realize this is everything Al Qaeda and Bin Ladin were saying would eventually come to pass from the USA? Not that it justifies 9/11, but can we maybe finally retire the "They hate us for our freedom!" rhetoric. No. They hate us because we won't stop fucking bombing them.

    I agree with a lot of this, but putting Israel and Israelis in quotes doesn't help your case, unless there's a reason behind it I'm misinterpreting?

    It's a made-up country imposed on the region that has been a genocidal apartheid ethno-supremecist regime since day one and for the good of not only the middle east but the entire planet should be dismantled for being blatantly undeserving of the status of 'nation'.

    Hope that's clear enough.

    Predictably the US are not sticking to the deal I see. They may just use it as a chance to reload.

    Bush's "they hate us for our freedom!" occurred at just the right time for me. I was questioning my fundamentalist upbringing, and had voted for him in 2000, and hearing him say that gave me the idea to find out what freedoms we had that they didn't, which lead into a deep dive of just what freedoms we claimed to have but different. So when Bush and others like him were slandering Muslims, I was ordering a free copy of the Qu'ran because I wanted to know more about what might motivate Muslims to attack the United States.

    Eventually, I came to the conclusion that 9/11 was retaliation for absolutely heinous actions by the United States. That didn't mean I felt like 3,000+ people deserved to die (I still don't believe they deserved to die), but it did add context which made me realize that we were the initial aggressors in the region, we were the ones causing a hundred 9/11s a year all across the Middle East.
