"Ideological saturation means an atomization into small antagonistic quantities which can no more avoid destroying one another than being smashed by the qualitative negativity of popular rejection." -Raoul Vaneigem

@cristishady @rssndr @Tim_AveEuropa It would be best for European security if US would pack up, leave all European sovereign territory, including Pituffik, and go back to their collapsing shithole country.

@cristishady @rssndr @Tim_AveEuropa US is helping Russia, they're led by child rapist Putin's dog, after all, but could you now please tell me when was the last time EU troops were put on combat alert because China or Iran threatened with invasion and annexation?
US is the biggest threat of the three.
English
Why are Americans surprised by this and angry about it?
It is almost as if sabotaging the remnants of the unipolar world order, as well as constantly threatening and blackmailing your European allies, might negatively affect their willingness to trust and support the US.

If China invaded Taiwan, Europeans would say it wasn't their fight, shut down our overflights, and try to cut a deal with the PRC.

Obama failed to deliver the sanctions relief that was agreed in the JCPOA. Trump tore it up. The Iranians, in a remarkable achievement of European diplomacy, kept their side of the bargain. But Biden refused to go back to the deal, demanding further concessions.
The problem is far deeper than Trump. And it is deeper than even party politics. A serious state would’ve built on the opportunity for a broader rapprochement to solve the problem posed by Iran. But that idea could not even be proposed bc of the hold of the lobby and the broader warmongering community of the Blob. We’re institutionally incapable of good policy it seems.
In the fantasy world of the Biden mechanics, the Palestinians could be put in a box, Iran could be put in a box permanently. When the illusion was broken on Oct 7, there was no serious reconsideration. Instead, we supported the genocide and Bibi’s wars of aggression. It was all going to be fine, bc we were just so fucking powerful. Who needs soft power when you have bombs?
There is no room for any serious thinking on foreign affairs. It is impossible to point out, for instance, that the Israeli idea of imposing military primacy on the whole region cannot possibility work. No sir, we will bash our heads against the wall but not control our outlaw protectorate.
This is how we got here, why we are watching the destruction of the American world position.

I think most people who supported the JCPOA (myself included) were keenly aware of its limitations. But let’s take these criticisms point by point. These arguments seem historical, but they have relevance for the present and the future. 1/

@Gnawblin1 @naivetynkohan Prepared for the foreseeable occasion where explosives drone enters Finnish territory, where it should be not for luck that it doesn't hurt anyone.
We should have robust drone detection system in place, not use Hornets for that.

@ALemppu @naivetynkohan Prepared for what? Random drones falling over the border? How do you prepare for that? please do remind me

How many times a week do I have to read these same takes on the uniquely strong Finnish national spirit and how ubiquitous our culture of preparedness is. The Economist has a worse case of Finland Derangement Syndrome than most Finns do.
The Economist@TheEconomist
When one is as well-prepared as the Finns are, it is easy to accept the threat from Russia as a fact of life—one that, though worrisome, can be faced and overcome. Most other European countries, however, are not so far along economist.com/europe/2025/10…

Modern historians read stories about how Caligula appointed his horse consul and they argue that it's obvious anti-Principate propaganda made up by Suetonius, on the ground that nobody in charge could be that crazy, but I think we should reconsider this argument to be honest.

BREAKING: New post from Trump asking about keeping Iranian oil

The IDF has informed the Israeli cabinet that the air war has reached the limits of its effectiveness in its current form of focusing on military targets. Ron Ben Yishai, Israel's premier military analyst says Israel is considering two paths:
1) Gradual infrastructure degradation. The progressive destruction of bridges, power stations, and transport links to make the regime unable to provide basic services. The downside: it takes time, allows adaptation, and lets Iran continue disrupting oil markets and striking Israel meanwhile.
2) The "Dahiya Doctrine": Ben-Yishai's preferred recommendation. This involves pre-warning civilians to evacuate specific neighborhoods in Tehran, particularly those housing families of senior regime officials and Revolutionary Guard commanders, then completely flattening those areas from the air. He argues making senior IRGC commanders personally homeless and displaced would, in his view, make them far less willing to reject Trump's ceasefire offers.
Neither of these options will work. But they are both based on the intentional and massive commitment of war crimes.

The people Muslims conquered (Persians, Spaniards, Indians etc) exist as their respective ethnic groups after 1000+ years of interaction.
Europeans had barely 500 years of contact with Native Americans and wiped out 95% of them.
Silver Spoon🇺🇸@SpoonieSexer
If Muslims colonized the Americas, all natives would've been castrated and died off as the last of their generation.

@sissenberg @nytimes A correction will appear in tomorrow's print edition: "A headline with an article on Friday about President Trump’s threats to leave NATO misstated the full name of the body. It is the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, not the North American Treaty Organization."

The Economist and Bloomberg also called the downing of fighter jets an “escalation” by Iran. Everyone knows you’re supposed to just let invading militaries bomb your universities and girls’ schools and apartment buildings and that shooting back is an act of unhinged aggression.
Nima Shirazi@WideAsleepNima
The New York Times is now describing Iran's very normal acts of self-defense - shooting down American jets that are BOMBING THEIR FUCKING COUNTRY - as an "escalation from Iran's leadership." Completely unhinged to publish stuff like this.

Nearly 200 slaughtered schoolgirls didn't bring "a human dimension to the war" for this despicable creature 🤯
Hamza Yusuf@Hamza_a96
“It brings a human dimension to the war…” says Sky News’ military analyst about a missing American pilot from an F-15 jet. Has Sky News ever raised that same human dimension about the US and Israel’s carpet bombing of Gaza, Lebanon and Iran?

A future summary of this war: the U.S. and Iran blew up each other's navies, air forces, and military bases in a couple of days, proving that these things had become as obsolete as cavalry in the age of drones, missiles, and underground command bunkers.

I would imagine Trump has the real U.S. casualty numbers so far and the secret reports on what happened to the aircraft carriers and refueling planes and CIA officers hiding in Qatari hotels and so on and it's not looking good.

@AnalyticaCamil1 They are so totally screwing this up.

One problem with realism as a doctrine of foreign policy is that it ignores justice, but justice is crucial for sustaining any political order that can sustain a grand-strategy.
The realist take on this is that you compute in the power-political frame and sell it with a spin that makes it look just. But there are limits to this sophistry and hypocrisy.
One way these issues enter the equation here is the West’s unjust demand that Iran cannot have the bomb while Israel can. I don’t believe that any political coalition in Iran can now survive fudging this issue.
The bomb is now essential for both deterrence and for justice. The West can’t be trusted anyway.
If there is to be a permanent balance of naked power — and how can there not be? Israel like Serbia in 1914 has forced us all into playing Monopoly now — then nukes are essential, the Hormuz weapon is essential, missiles that can reach London and eventually DC are essential, an alliance with the anti-systemic great powers is essential, hardening is essential, a firm anti-Western policy is essential.
I just do not see how this argument will not now win in Iran. The West has burned all its credibility for fair dealing. The only man in the West with both a brain and balls now is Macron. And even he is merely a realist customer to be dealt with at arms length.
‘The savage injustice of the Europeans’, as Adam Smith put it, their unjust treatment of Iran and their hypocrisies around the genocidal hyper aggressive Apartheid regime, is now an active catalyst of the destruction of the Western-centric world order.
Policy Tensor@policytensor
I doubt Zarif is anywhere close to the center of elite opinion in Tehran. Instead, they're thinking: — Never let go of the Hormuz weapon — Impose the toll booth — Get the bomb — Rebuilt the missile arsenal — Petroyuan standard

We purchased the aircraft manufacturer Atol Aviation. Through the deal, Sensofusion is bringing new air-to-ground counter-drone systems to market, with the aircraft platforms to be manufactured at a former air force base in Finland.

All this while Iran’s great power ally, Time, builds the tsunamis that will crash the world economy, this president, his party, and many, many political coalitions around the world.
He’s cooked. Picked the wrong kid to bully.
Policy Tensor@policytensor
Facing the total loss of the US position in the gulf, the president is under considerable pressure to escalate to a ground incursion. It is going to be an even bigger disaster, generating even more pressure for further escalation which will result in a full-blown catastrophe. It’s just really, really hard to see how the US can avoid defeat here. No course of action is promising in the least. Recent updates suggest that the interdiction war has failed. Hormuz cannot be retaken without it. Further decapitation is not going to work. The limited-objective ground incursion options, if undertaken, would almost certainly result in disaster. The US simply does not have the armed force strength — even with a draft — of occupying Iran. The United States has been truly defeated by the newly-minted great power.

Genuinely puzzled as to why aren't Democrats forcefully defending Obama's Iran deal? It was a legitimate, legacy-defining accomplishment. Instead, they're letting Trump's wreckage define the terms. Makes no sense.
