When Bloomberg starts churning out daily articles about a specific country, it's usually a terrible, terrible sign.

Indonesia, Southeast Asia’s largest economy, risks losing 'emerging market' status, which could jeopardize billions of dollars in foreign investment. https://t.co/metwSeZ2Yz

Watching Trump asymptotically approach my own views is … disorienting.

On a purely military level, there are parallels between the American and Russian superpowers being humiliated by middle powers that have better mastered the new drone technologies of war in Iran and Ukraine. If I was a Chinese military looking at Taiwan, I would be telling my superiors this doesn't augur well for pulling off a quick and decisive special military operation.

Sudden distrust after a long period of trust is irreversible.

[Dr Andreas Krieg @andreas_krieg]

Sealed inside their own echo chamber, Israelis convinced themselves of a myth of military hegemony, total impunity, a small state that could play global superpower. This has been the narrative of defiance within Israeli discourse since 7 October

The bubble is slowly bursting. Hamas is still standing. Hezbollah fought the IDF to a stalemate. Iran extracted major US concessions without firing a shot. And Israel is more isolated than at any point in its history.

The "regional great power" was always just borrowed American muscle. They were just the last to notice.

Why are they still advertising Macdonald's in the US, is there anyone there who doesn't know about it

Da hoćete tražiti odgovornost od političara makar deseti dio ko od Demirovica, gdje bi nam bio kraj....

@AnalyticaCamil1 On the other hand, they're finally learning something useful from the Romans.🤷🏻

@keleigh1959 @igorbobic @ArthurDelaneyHP You're saying he's a paedophile? That's a very different accusation. If you have evidence, please bring it forth because I haven't seen it.

@igorbobic @ArthurDelaneyHP So sending dick pics is more morally depraved than slaughtering civilians? Got it.

What a weird way of saying ISRAEL KILLED Lebanese journalist Amal Khalil.

1) draft angry email
2) sleep on it
3) wake up and re-read
4) make it angrier

ovo suprematističko qrčenje hdz-ovskih načelnika opština u Srednjoj Bosni neće im pomoći na izborima za člana Predsjedništva, i samo dodatno pokazuje njihovo pravo lice, ono iz udruženog zločinačkog poduhvata koji je presuđen u Hagu.

Geez, I wonder who those "supporters" might be?

Joint Ministerial Statement on the #WestBank

[Miguel Delaney @MiguelDelaney]

In 2023, Indonesia were stripped of the under-20 World Cup for refusing to allow the Israeli team entry.

Fifa's justification then was the vague "due to the current circumstances".

Quite a contrast to the hardline "FIFA is not involved in host immigration processes" now.

[Joshua Collins @InvisiblesMuros]

Its gonna be wild when the US wins the World Cup because ICE just arrests all the foreign players

You have $800,000,000,000 - instead of interviewing them, why don’t you house them?
