Circle of life.

I already know this, Pierre. We also axed the tax and now can't afford services that we used to be able to afford. Sweet life we are building.

My sense is most media still operate on the advertisers model -- you don't cover anything that harms advertisers. Probably still true today.

I would say I don't know how people like this sleep at night, but I think they sleep very soundly. I assume it's easy to sleep when you don't believe in anything but your own pursuit of power and influence.

I have to say that I'm still not taking self-help advice from any politician.

Your first mistake was believing them. They just wanted to win. They did not care how.

This is a good read and says how I feel about it seeing the flag of the Iranian monarchy flying in N Van. You are simply substituting one authoritarian with another. Iran did not become a theocracy by accident.

Series of loud booms heard just now over Beirut.

Some men born between 1945 and 1960. This was their era!

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

What I find disheartening is the United States is speed running its past errors in two months.

Forcibly end a left wing dictator's rule in South America;

Run a poorly-led small invasion of Cuba;

And now do a Middle East regime change.

If the US Army lands in Papua New Guinea by mid-March...

Opinion: Which regime? What change? Iran’s complexity means there are no magic bullets Iran, almost uniquely, has neither a single unified governing regime nor a single set of motives and aspirations among those seeking its ouster

Most Iranians and most neighbouring countries want an end to the theocratic regime. But Iran, almost uniquely, has neither a single unified governing regime nor a single set of motives and aspirations among those seeking its ouster.

Assad is literally in Moscow.

A good reminder for those glued to their phone: social media is not real-life. People and bots do operate to take advantage of you. Yes, there will be lots and lots of images out of Iran. Tread carefully.

Sadly, much longer than that.

Upon further reading of the article, it doesn't even spell out what 50 years of American Foreign Policy Trump is flipping.

I get it that many editors are overworked these days. My empathy to you.

I mean, I guess if we exclude what happened in Iraq and Afghanistan.

ההחלטה לתקוף באיראן שהתקבלה בביקור נתניהו בארה"ב וחלוקת התפקידים בישראל ובארה"ב נערכו לכמה ימים של תקיפות אינטנסיביות באיראן • בכיר ישראלי טוען כי ההחלטה לצאת לתקיפה התקבלה בביקור נתניהו בוושינגטון: "האיראנים קיבלו הזדמנות אחרונה - והרסו אותה"

Channel 12 reported that Trump and Netanyahu settled on this course of action during the Israeli PM's visit to Washington on February 11. That suggests weeks of negotiations have all been for show. www.mako.co.il/news-militar...

Nuclear weapons created an imbalance between nations. If you don't have them, you are now at risk of being colonized.

Nothing will detach that 30 per cent from him. They have all the gear. How embarrassing would it be to admit you bought all that swag on false pretenses? Pretty embarrassing.

BREAKING: Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said there were many signs indicating Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei 'is no longer,' without explicitly confirming his death. Follow live updates: reut.rs/46xIQly

I'll always remember him as a guy who couldn't cut it in B.C.

NDP breaks with the Liberal-Conservative consensus of supporting US/Israel actions

Sundried tomatoes are gross

Eyewitness video, verified by Reuters, showed damaged buildings and burning vehicles in a Tehran neighborhood after the US and Israel announced strikes in the region.

Reuters was not able to verify the exact time when the videos were filmed.

It turns out Trump didn't need to lay out a justification for this war. He just did it and let the pundits sell it for him.

Several points:
1) Iran's regime is odious. Its citizens deserve support.
2) That does not mean an attack will help.
3) Canada will find it hard to be so selective in its support for international law.
4) Canada does not benefit from a US administration unbound by the US constitution.

America.

Again, for emphasis: russia has not agreed to ANYTHING. Nearly 100% of the media coverage presents the current situation as: if Ukraine agrees to giving up Donbas, there will be peace. That is not the case! Stop acting as if it were.
