They are murdering the people they say should rise up.

This reminds me of the “Why is there no Palestinian Mandela?” line. Like, because you would have murdered him and all his family??????

I wonder why the Democrats are always recruiting former military rather than, say, community organizers, public defenders, or nurses.

Years ago a friend of mine was applying to the art history phd program at Columbia and needed some sort of interesting extracurricular to put in her application. So I faked an entire art scene magazine called Off the Walls and pretended I was the editor. She got in, now works at the Met.

Apropos of SecDef's remarks this morning:

Denial of quarter—even the declaration of no quarter—is a war crime.

And recognized as such by the US Government.

Map of the ME showing the two straits

Yemen’s Houthis have announced they’ll be joining the war in support of Iran shortly. Analysts expect them to shut down another strait, Bab El-Mandeb, which will close the Suez Canal. The global economy hangs by a thread.

he still doesn't seem to understand that when you put someone in a no-win situation, and also prove yourself completely untrustworthy, then they definitionally have nothing to lose. whereas you have a lot to lose and literally not one coherently defined thing to win. deals master

How a Catch-a-Predator Sting Nabbed a Right-Wing Hatemonger Was Jake Lang evaluating a teenage girl for a bikinis-and-burkas protest? Or was something more lecherous at play?

Jake Lang, the organizer of an anti-Muslim rally outside of Zohran Mamdani's home, is now in big trouble after being caught flirtatiously texting someone he believed to be a 15-year-old girl.

Elad Simchayoff on twitter:

I interviewed two Israeli Air Force pilots who are part of the operation in Iran. When I asked what it felt like to enter Iranian airspace for the first time, one of them said:
“You find yourself thinking, what do these people, so far away from us, actually want from us? They have a huge and beautiful country. Right now full of snow and lakes. Truly a very, very beautiful place. What do they want from us, this small piece of land? It’s such a strange feeling.”

A surprising number of Israelis seem to have already forgotten that they're the ones who started the war.

U.S. at Fault in Strike on School in Iran, Preliminary Inquiry Says

Remember: Trump bombed an elementary school full of kids AFTER Pete Hegseth gutted the Pentagon's civilian harm prevention office.

First they lied and blamed Iran. Now our military admits it was a mistake.

FIRE Hegseth.
DEMAND an independent investigation.
END THIS WAR!

It's not something I've done a lot of research on, but I think the scholarly consensus is pretty clear that Christ existed and that he was likely unvaccinated.
