They also are in the middle of Ramadan and have not eaten until just before the game.

Have you seen the religious sermons and speaking in tongues from Trumps spiritual advisor?

The images of and noise from the Iranians in the crowd is passionate. Good on them.

They are also symbols of emancipation. Women’s football is very powerful.

Watching the Matilda’s play Iran tonight is very heartening for oppressed women but also sad to see.

The national football team is useful to the regime as a PR symbol but the team is closely controlled and mistrusted. They are definitely not free to speak or act openly.

Let’s hope that changes.

50 Republican Congressmen have significant investments in the weapons trade.

Oh wow, that’s really messed up. I was aware of her but I wonder how many like Hegseth believe this rubbish?

Has anyone figured out the reason why the USA started a war with Iran 5 days ago yet?

How long until Trump announces himself as the new Supreme Leader of Iran?

The Trump Regime is spending $1 Billion per day on a war in Iran while he strips Americans of healthcare worth over $1.3 trillion.

Reckon that is due to the scale of Australia too?

Why? More theatre?

US Oversight Committees are a complete waste of time. It’s embarrassing for your democracy.

I can’t believe how people in power continue to allow such awful environmental and health risks to persist. This has been going on far too long.

America your hearings are a waste of time & embarrassing. You need to stop them and adopt Royal Commissions style inquiries from Aus, UK, Canada, NZ. They are conducted by high court judges and are calm, useful, powerful and respectful.

Waking up and checking the news is currently an act of bravery.

People who believe in an imminent Rapture/Armageddon don't have anything invested in what happens to you here on Earth. You are irrelevant to them and will be treated accordingly.

Treating this shitty war as a holy script and Trump as divinely anointed isn’t beliefβ€”it’s fanaticism. It shoves end‑times delusion into the chain of command, guts the Constitution, wrecks discipline, and replaces strategy with religious madness.

This is killing to appease Christian Nationalists.

What terrifies me is the blending already of military within the 5 eyes alliances, the use of Palantir by govs, supermarkets, etc, more worrying is the culture adoption is becoming mainstream.

The US gives the Israeli Military $3.8 billion per year. We have given the US over $6 billion so far for Subs.
