Very very few have so far.
What it sounds like is mossad but markers on political figures and military figures and then they came in with f-35s and very surgically targeted them. Everyone I know in Iran says that there are... nobody knows any any civilian casualties.

Complex.
Netanyahu uses this to remain in power.
But the people he killed are actually worse war criminals than him. We live in such dark times. It hurts.
But I am glad those men in Iran are gone. Bagheri and Salami were the worst of the monsters in this world.

I do believe in young people. I've sent a couple of young people from Iraq to the United Nations. At my cost.

And they studied for years to get there and they have become very incredible cultural resources for the world.

Greta is not an expert on this. And it is very nuanced.

Nah.
environment is clear cut.
Science is science.
Ethnic wars require an emic perspective that people who have lived with the cultures for decades have a hard time dissecting. Dont need input from anyone who has less than 40 years experience on the topic.

I find that it dilutes her message.
I appreciate how you feel but we disagree on this. And I feel she has diluted her power and she is walked away from the environmental movement. That's my perception of it. And when I look at our adversaries I see them capitulate on it. How I feel. 🀷
