Retaliatory steps I'll expect from Iran if Trump moves ahead with the escalation he's threatening:
- Full Activation of Ansar Allah, closure of Bab-el-Mandeb
- Destruction of the Saudi Yanbu terminal on the Red Sea
- A major step up in attacks on Saudi oil production infrastructure (this has probably already started)
These three actions will probably be sufficient to shock the markets into correcting, cutting off any hope that the worst can be avoided in an economic sense.
@WriteToRebel@Murness1 Yeah, that's the problem, you're charitable with white Nazis and not with black people. This is why people don't trust white leftists like you
@WriteToRebel@Murness1 This is exactly the sort of racism that's the problem, you're "on the side" of someone who's basically asking "why can't we say it if they can?!"
@Is_Not_Brian Hamas beat the Iron Dome with parachutes and big fans. It's possible to beat these systems especially if the enemy isn't expecting the attack and, in the US's case, if you have the newest and shiniest toys. You can't just rely on air defense and expect it to work
@Is_Not_Brian "US Air Defense" doesn't work either. We JUST saw Iran make a mockery of the Iron Dome and THAAD system using their old stock. Air defense is just not reliable anywhere. And Iran doesn't get bombed at will cuz they can hit back
@jordanschneider it must suck for you right that your everyday wishing of chinese semiconductor industry to be obliterated didn't just happen but also yankees are selling them chips even after all that posturing
โThe US is in a deeply neurotic funk. You know what the cause of that neurosis is? China. A wonderful, brilliant civilization 4,000 years old plus. Strangely enough, China never beat up its neighbors... And the US doesn't even take a year off, โ said US economist Jeffrey Sachs during the Founders' Lecture held by University of South Africa.
And his solution was to lean on the British empire as much as possible, extracting vast superprofits from the colonies to pay for the welfare state while atrocities were committed against national liberation forces in countries like Malaysia.
My hot take is that you dont get to complain about this as well as unions being private interest groups.
Its a valid retort to say that union should serve the whole class, through the party state, and not particular set of workers.
The US military shot down MH370 over the Gulf of Thailand, then spun an elaborate tale about a rogue pilot flying to the southern Indian Ocean. Every aspect of this original story collapses under the slightest scrutiny
And then of course youโve got the teleportation orb dipshits
What part of "do nothing, win" do people not understand? China will attain global dominance precisely because they won't get involved with this sort of thing.
@Is_Not_Brian I'm answering your question and about "why are people still talking about it". If the conversation and criticism was in a forum more conducive for conradely conduct I think you wouldn't see nearly as much defencism. But this is a nazi website designed to inflame arguments
@Is_Not_Brian Because the focus on China is a way for supporters of the US, Israel, and Arab states to launder the reputations of those countries. We've already seen multiple viral tweets about how the western left is superior to the global south
