At least 30% of the population believe the President of the United States is some kind of Superman-like demigod who can control all world events with his mind or a strongly-worded order to an omnipotent U.S. government that has access to alien technology and financial magic.

Iran's decentralized defense efforts are the prime example of what men can set their minds to once they have their government assigned wives

The irony of the Wizard of Oz is that he's indeed a wizard. The only kind of magician there ever was.

Economic booms don't change the fact that your kin lives mentally in the gutters and will return there once times change. Like the postwar generation not being open minded, basically believing that hardship creates work discipline, when it's not at all that simple.

The coming purge against wrongthink will be much greater than during Russiagate, COVID and the Ukraine War as governments become weaker and more insecure. Carl Schmitt, the crown jurist of the Nazi Party, wrote extensively about the search for the enemy within. Politics is largely divided into identifying who is a friend (“us”/in-group) and who is an enemy (the “other”/out-group). People within the country who do not fall in line with the regime can be portrayed as having loyalty to the enemy, and political opposition thus becomes an existential threat. Schmitt considered debate and intellectual pluralism to weaken the ability to identify internal enemies. Weak governments rely more on constructing external enemies and silencing dissent at home. Notice how governments and their stenographers in the media have little to no interest in debating the actual arguments of those who dissent, yet they devote increasing resources to denouncing what is portrayed as treasonous intent. Expect more headlines like this.

So Israel has a nuclear research facility, but won't even use nuclear to harvest electricity? How could anyone doubt that they have the bomb?

𝗨𝗡𝗜𝗧𝗘𝗗 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗧𝗘𝗦 𝗦𝗘𝗘𝗞𝗦 𝟮𝟰-𝗛𝗢𝗨𝗥 𝗖𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗘𝗙𝗜𝗥𝗘 𝗧𝗢 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛𝗗𝗥𝗔𝗪 𝗙𝗥𝗢𝗠 𝗜𝗥𝗔𝗤 According to sources, amid escalating tensions and mounting pressure on the ground, the United States has requested a 24-hour ceasefire to allow for the safe withdrawal of its forces from Iraq, with the exception of troops stationed in Erbil. The request reportedly includes coordination with Iraqi resistance movements to minimize clashes during the pullout. The plan represents a significant shift in Washington’s operational posture as it seeks an organized and controlled exit. Meanwhile, NATO forces have evacuated their bases across Iraq, suggesting a broader, coordinated drawdown and raising questions about the future of military presence in the region.

@shanaka86 All this is based on the erroneous view that Germany is a sovereign country. It is not. It has been foreign occupied since 1945.

Iran’s ambassador to Germany asked Berlin to clarify the role of Ramstein Air Base in the war. The question was direct. Is the largest American military installation in Europe being used to coordinate, plan, or support strike operations against Iran? Because if it is, then Germany is not a neutral party observing a war from across the Mediterranean. Germany is an active participant whose territory enables the bombing. The ambassador cited what Iran described as a request for clarity under UN Resolution 3314, which defines aggression to include allowing territory to be used by another state for acts of aggression against a third state. The legal framing is precise. If Ramstein’s Combined Air Operations Centre is coordinating targeting data, refuelling schedules, or intelligence distribution for strikes on Iranian territory, then Germany’s national territory is a component of the kill chain. The 3314 definition does not require Germany to fire the weapon. It requires Germany to provide the territory from which the weapon is directed. German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius responded that there is no reason at present to doubt the legality of Ramstein’s use. The qualifier at present does the same work as appropriate efforts in the seven-nation statement: it preserves optionality while conceding nothing. He added that Germany would not take part in this war, at most in terms of protection or material support. The phrase at most in terms of protection or material support is extraordinary. Material support to a belligerent conducting air strikes from your territory is participation. The distinction Pistorius is drawing between taking part in the war and providing material support to the country taking part in the war does not exist in international law. It exists in domestic political communication, where it allows the German government to tell its electorate that this is not our war while hosting the air operations centre that makes the war possible. EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas made the tension explicit on March 19. She said the war was started by the US and Israel without consulting the EU and despite the bloc’s calls for restraint. Then she said the sentence that captured Europe’s position more honestly than any diplomatic communique: This is not Europe’s war. We are allies of America, but we do not really understand their moves recently. The admission is revelatory. Europe’s most senior foreign policy official publicly stated that the continent’s closest ally launched a major war without explaining its strategic logic to its partners. The allies did not understand the moves. They were not consulted. They are now absorbing the consequences: gas prices doubling, food prices rising, refugee flows from Lebanon reaching one million, and an Iranian diplomat asking whether German soil is part of the targeting infrastructure. Ramstein is not a minor installation. It is the headquarters of US Air Forces in Europe and Air Forces Africa. It hosts the 603rd Air Operations Centre, which provides command and control for all US and NATO air operations across the European and African theatres. The base processes intelligence, coordinates aerial refuelling, and serves as the logistics hub for US military operations extending from the North Atlantic to the Indian Ocean. Whether it is being used for Iran-specific operations is a factual question that the German government has chosen not to answer directly. The firewall between Europe and the Iran war has an American door. It is located in Rhineland-Palatinate. It is called Ramstein. And Iran has publicly asked who is walking through it. open.substack.com/pub/shanakaans…
