@coachbrucepearl Oh no, what Barcelona will do without a fat, old American visiting during summer?
English
Looks like I'm gonna call off my summer trip to Barcelona. Think I will spend my hard earned money someplace else on vacation. Anybody with me on this?
Avi Abraham Benlolo@AviBenlolo
The Abraham Global Peace Initiative (AGPI) condemns the actions of Pedro Sánchez, who has crossed every diplomatic line by withdrawing Spain’s ambassador from Israel while reopening its embassy in Tehran. His call on the European Union to suspend its Association Agreement with Israel further underscores a deeply troubling and one-sided agenda. Such moves reflect a profound moral inversion at a time requiring clarity and leadership. His harsh anti-Israel rhetoric says far more about his political posture than it does about Israel. AGPI urges Spain to reconsider this dangerous course.

@ryanmouquegolf @Top100Rick Why? If the guy can often chip in at the club he normally plays, why should he care that he can't do that at Augusta?
Its like telling a runner 'yeah but you wouldn't run as fast at 3,000m'. Umm, ok.
I think it's more about putting people down and asserting superiority.
English
@easybezz @Top100Rick It’s having the awareness that there are levels to the game
Being open to the fact that you can still improve your short game much more than where ur currently at. Developing new shots, etc
English
@ryanmouquegolf @Top100Rick But why would someone who has no chance to play at Augusta or a private club care about that, if they can't practice at those places.
English
When I hear golfers say “my short game is pretty good” I think ok…. It’s good at the golf course you play…
But it’s not “good”… I doesn’t travel
There are levels to short game. There’s muni short game, private golf club short game, Melbourne sandbelt short game, Augusta short game
English
Watch this chip from Justin Rose.
What makes Augusta so amazing is shots like this.
No rough.
Perfect lie.
Nothing to go over.
And yet most mortals would be 20 feet short or in the water. This is impossible to get close.
Full commitment.

@Noahpinion Half of soviet nuclear was done in Ukraine, ofc they can. They're actively working on it now.
English
Obviously Ukraine should have nukes. The question is whether it can get them.
Ukraine Business News@theUBN
Most Ukrainians want the country’s nuclear status restored and do not believe that US guarantees will protect against a second Russian invasion. Three-quarters of Ukrainians support restoring the country’s nuclear status: half call for reestablishing its own nuclear arsenal (49%), while the remaining prefer nuclear-free status only if protected by nuclear allies (26%). Additionally, 79% of Ukrainians believe that the US will not fulfill its security obligations if a new Russian attack occurs on Ukraine after signing the peace agreement.

@avidseries Fuck do you care what happens in a small country 6000 miles away?
English
@avidseries The world would be better off if your dad came into a condom vs your mom.
But what's done is done and we live with your retarded Twitter takes.
English
Both America and the Middle East would have been better off if Israel had never been created — the country has been a drag on US foreign policy since the 50s — but what's done is done, it's nearly 80 years on, and as much as it sucks for the Palestinians, they lost, Israel exists, and the sooner the Palestinians resign themselves to these painful facts and move on, the better for everyone.

@Huxx777 No, I think the outage is that a group that had been less than 3% of the population a hundred years before thought they had a right to an independent state in that same area.

Maybe Muslim countries (including my own, Yemen) should stop firing missiles at Israel, and then crying when Israel fires back?

@History__Speaks Immoral war? You're a laughing stock if you invoke morality when it comes to the mullahs regime.
Fuck you and your moral invoking TDS.
English
I think this may become the case study I use to explain to students the difference between strategic and tactical victory. in war (Right now I use Afghanistan and Vietnam; ratio of soldiers killed is far more dramatic here.)
The Iranians did massive damage to US assets in the GCC. It's not just measured by body count. Though of course US/Israel had astronomically more tactical successes, Hormuz/US domestic politics/the fact that this was obviously a dumb and immoral war that meant nothing to US interests, meant we couldn't bear the cost.
Arthur Schopenhauer@ArthurSchopenh7
@History__Speaks I remember Karlin recently saying that the US was clearly winning the war since they had killed 3000 Iranians while only 15 Americans had been killed…
English
@UnrealCity @Noahpinion Their neighbors are perfectly fine, as long as they don't attack Israel. Easy formula.
English
@Noahpinion You ought to write a substack article about it. I'd be very interested to read how we could have a "less close relationship" that doesn't jeopardize the existence of Israel but that also doesn't give them the unchecked power that brings so much harm to their neighbors.
English
Yes. Dislike of Israel can make antisemitism worse, but it's not antisemitism. I've been advocating for a less close relationship between the U.S. and Israel for many years.
Nick Pappas 🌻@NickAPappas
The healthy way to respond to this is not “it’s all propaganda and antisemitism.” There’s a genuine shift occurring. Americans don’t feel this war was launched in our interest. If they’re right, a continuation of a trend of Israel’s growing unpopularity is an understandable and rational response. If they’re wrong, folks need to make that case. But it’s a very hard case to make if the result of this was the regime stays in place and controls the strait + gets a new revenue source to rebuild. All at the expense of America’s relationship with nearly every other country on Earth besides Israel.
English
@shadihamid It's 100% wrong. If you want to remain in your home country ways, stay home.
English
Should a minority community's right to be in America depend on their willingness to converge with the cultural mainstream? No, it shouldn't depend on that. It shouldn't depend on anything. We're all Americans, after all.

My new @washingtonpost column:
Why do Muslims need to be like everyone else? A case against assimilation.

@Noahpinion Like you don't have to let the world know what you think every 5 minutes of the day. Take time to think and write something thoughtful once a month - the world will think better of you.
English
@Noahpinion Have you ever considered the option 'shut the fuck up because I'm just reposting noise'?
English
@Noahpinion @Xtian375 You seem so invested in saying the same thing over and over
English
@Xtian375 You have no persuasive power, you've lost this
English
The American public is fucking retarded and can’t see beyond all of the disinfo and antisemitism they are being fed. If the Israelis are a bad ally, what’s a good one?
Noah Smith 🐇🇺🇸🇺🇦🇹🇼@Noahpinion
Americans as a whole realize that Israel is not a good ally. 60% is a solid majority, and it's only going to grow. A breakup of some kind is coming.
English
If Trump ends this war without regime change, the MAGA cult members who cheered this war on the ground that we must change the regime in Iran will then praise Trump for having the wisdom to stop before we get to that point.
Clay Travis@ClayTravis
If Trump announces a peace deal with Iran, the same people who tell you he’s going to nuke Iran are going to immediately switch their argument to the peace deal isn’t good enough.
English
Trump is unhinged. This isn’t something you communicate publicly, wtf.

@ter6shk9va @kamilkazani yes, it's absolutely ad hominem. The point of elections is to ignore what foreigners think.
English
@easybezz @kamilkazani i didn’t try to untangle kamil’s text becoz it’s corporeal and neatly structured for my perusal. i’d never dare undermine a peer interlocutor of being unable to do so… i was tryna call out your eristic sophistry and ad hominem since your argumentation was… well, not an argument
English
Hint:
In the future, you should probably not vote for any politician that did not actively & vigorously oppose this war. The lack of active & vigorous opposition is a proof that this person should never be in a position of power

@nickkokonas @Matt2Frosty Respect the flex - "I expect to play there sometime in my life."
English
@Matt2Frosty I promised myself decades ago that I'll never step foot on the property until I do so as a player. I've been invited to the Masters (kindly!) several times and have painfully declined, including this year
I'm a golfer, I'll always choose the round
(though I am a huge fan too)
English
My buddy and I have had an interesting conversation this morning. Curious the masses thoughts! Would you rather:
Play Augusta National one time. All the bells and whistles included.
or
Have lifetime passes to every single round of The Master’s until you pass away
