Explosions in Isfahan, Iran following U.S.-Israeli airstrikes.

@feross Is there a reason why supply chain attacks are seemingly on the rise? Is AI playing a role?










Germany's AfD co-chair: Spain closed its bases to the Iran war -- now its ships sail through Hormuz undisturbed. Germany should do the same and send US troops home.


This dude is on fire today. Such an ass. I’ll give you “for dummies“ version. We Iranians were doing just fine Matt, until cowards like you, felt threatened by the Shah, and since they were clueless, thought Khomeini would be easier to control, so they installed him in Iran. Yes, with Air France, with trucks loaded with weapons. Then they thought their frankenstein won’t turn on them. It did. Right away. 444 days of hostage crises. Death to America right away. But still they were too coward to fix it. Generation of Iranians paid the price for your cowardice. Your democrats, senators, politicians, they are still viciously trying to save their murderous Frankenstein. Look at your senator @BernieSanders, you must be proud of him. And now we are here. You finally got a president who has guts to do the job. I know you imbecile cowards can’t follow, but you are not doing this for us, you are doing this for your own ass. Prince said in his speech, Iranians sacrificed their life for the whole world. Show some gratitude. Learn something from us. Anyway, We are not begging you to rescue us, we are demanding you to fix the mess you created. Now don’t mistake Iranians’s dignity with nativity. We forgive but we never forget. We remember. You just discovered Iran yesterday, but we know how we get here. Yes we are grateful now, but we know you are not doing us a charity. Now maybe you better shut up and let grown-ups clean after your mess. Zip it. Arrogance+ignorance is truly a vile mix. You mistakenly think people’s giving you validation means you are truthful. You are lost. Your downfall has started #JavidShah #ThankYouTrump



Not only do we have foreigners like this ridiculous brat asking that we fight and die on their behalf, they don’t even have the humility to ask nicely. They demand. They say we owe it to them. Ungrateful. Presumptuous. Demanding and taking and stealing from us. Never giving anything in return. Never doing anything for us. Never even saying thank you. This is the kind of attitude we’ve allowed foreigners to have towards us for decades. I’m sick of it. Disgusted by it.






That's it. I give up.. Donald Trump is a time traveler. 20/20 interview 1987. Wtf.

Male refugees from Afghanistan and Syria in Germany show a keen interest in forming relationships with local women, but the local women show little interest in forming relationships with them. Germany, in particular, received over 1,4 million refugees between 2014 and 2016, predominantly from Muslim-majority countries such as Syria and Afghanistan. The majority of these arrivals consisted of young, single men within prime marriageable age brackets. This study examines partnership preferences of male refugees from Afghanistan and Syria who arrived in Germany between 2014 and 2016 and female residents of similar age. Overall, our results indicate a high level of openness among male refugees towards partnering with female members of the resident population, but a comparatively low level of openness among the latter towards partnering with recently arrived male refugees. This implies a substantial incongruence in partnership preferences among the two groups. Regarding the educational level of a potential partner, we found that all respondents prefer highly educated partners over those with lower levels of education. This suggests that, for refugees, securing a highly educated partner might serve as a means of upward social mobility and integration into higher-status networks in the host society. Furthermore, it is possible that highly educated women, due to their greater exposure to diverse social environments and potentially less discriminatory attitudes, are perceived as more open to intergroup partnerships, making them a more attractive choice for refugees seeking acceptance and social integration. On the other hand, the reluctance of resident women to accept partnerships with refugees is largely explained by their rejection of the ‘imported’ religious Islam. It is possible that resident women perceive the religious practices of newly arrived refugees as different from their own, reinforcing a social distance that limits intergroup partnerships. Moreover, this reluctance might not only reflect religious differences but also concerns about gender norms or perceived lifestyle incompatibilities.
