Good news for once. F-15 WSO recovered alive. Was escaping and evading. Massive fire fight on tgt. Iranians were actively looking for him in the area.

I do not know why people clap for these anecdotes of airpower *not working* lol

Notice how this is a target that wasn't killed, and in fact had so much experience surviving being targeted by area bombardment that he developed a method for staying calm under fire

What makes the anti-external regime change arguments a “truism” is that no one bother to contrast the outcome of these wars with popular revolutions, which have for the most part gone even worse.

This is just the same hawk v dove culture war that will play out forever

The next decade of discourse on this is going to be all the people in charge of the military options saying they could've gotten it done, and negotiators in charge of the diplomatic options saying they could've gotten it done. None of them were ever going to deliver.
Dr. Jeffrey Lewis@ArmsControlWonk
Experts who supported what became the JCPOA did so overwhelmingly because we did not wish to see Iran acquire a nuclear weapon, something that now seems certain if the regime survives. He's ignored these arguments for two decades, no surprise he still ignores them.

@StatisticUrban Screenwriters are just cowards. I just saw The Drama, good movie. Cell phones didn't hurt it.
English
The reason so many shows are set in the 80s and 90s is cellphones make like 50% of plots obsolete. Contact anyone at any time, find almost any piece of knowledge, it's very difficult to get lost.
Same reason Star Trek has "oh, communications are blocked" every 2nd episode.

@JamesSurowiecki @DeanBaker13 Presumably those things were involved in preventing the development of an Iranian nuclear weapon! Hence the lack of progress
English
@JamesSurowiecki @DeanBaker13 Strange argument. Sanctions over the nuclear program started in 06. Obama personally signed off on Nitro Zeus and carried it out. The JCPOA (which doves love to talk about being effective!) was a whole thing. Israel keeps assassinating their nuclear scientists. Etc.
English
If every president since Clinton has gotten the same intelligence briefing that Iran was on the verge of acquiring nukes, and yet it still hasn't acquired nukes, that suggests our intelligence on Iran has not been very good.

As much as I enjoy Marathon, it is not a good sign that the community is constantly discussing what Bungie needs to do in order to retain the not-great-not-terrible playerbase it has managed to attract. Like, that's not our job!

people should not excuse that this should be for the top 5% or stay as strong because theres entire fully kitted teams wrecking entire lobbies in perimeter with this gun and it's going to further alienate and drive new and low end players away from wanting to stick with the game

@iDavey It would actually be funny to put Bugs Bunny up against him tho, that's a real match up

Any time y'all include Saitama, I need y'all to also understand what a "gag character" is.
He is a parody. A trope. His strength is infinite. It scales with no limit. Whatever power level his opponent has, he'll always be above it.

Again, we can't have a liberal Joe Rogan because Joe Rogan is already the conservative Oprah.
Freedom Fed 🌐🗽🏳️🌈🇺🇸🇺🇦@fedtanyl
In order to be the “Joe Rogan of the left,” you’d need a streamer/podcaster who: -isn’t known for politics and doesn’t mainly talk about politics, drawing in apolitical types/normies -actually endorses Democratic candidates when it comes down to it like Rogan does for the GOP

@agraybee Almost like land disputes aren't actually about immutable ties to ancient land rights
English
@agraybee This line of argument is crazy to me because like, what if your opponent could verify this? That would suddenly make all of Israel's land claims and use of violence legitimate? Palestinians would have to just go "oh gee I guess we really do gotta go!" Stupid.

People really believe land has DNA and you can match a person's DNA to the land's.

@hecubian_devil Tbh I don't think any of us are actually that serious about winning elections at this point. The GOP is going to get absolutely shellacked in November and they don't seem to care too much.
English
It’s amazing how few people—centrist or leftist—actually want to win. The only people who seem truly invested in and satisfied by winning are on the Right.
