The Combat Between Carnival and Lent, Italian Style

Consider the police park story vs Iran taking out single units in an apartment tower. Israel got away with AI targeting in Gaza bc the plan was just to kill as many as possible. Don't think it will work in Iran. AI-induced cognitive decline is a real military factor now. #nobodywantstoworkanymore
New from 404 Media: Proton Mail, the privacy-focused email service, gave authorities data that let the FBI unmask an anonymous 'Stop Cop City' protester. It was payment data linked to the anonymous email account. From that, FBI ID'd them, then tracked their movements www.404media.co/proton-mail-...
As much as that chart suggests Canadians believe their neighbours are good, decent people, it also explains why we are so unwilling to enact structural changes or hold people in power accountable for their actions.
I think this footage is from the earlier jet that was shot down
Sounds like another American jet got shot down, this time over Basra

I don't like this Pape guy who's been doing the rounds. Smug and condescending, and the only thing novel about him is that he's a member of the establishment who's finally figured out what plenty of others (ie War Nerd) have known for quite a while

If you are in the American armed forces now is your chance to perform a generational act of heroism that can stop terrorism and bring about a safer world. The first step is find an old shirt and the second step is flushing it down a toilet at work. Godspeed, soldier
Lot of rumours swirling around about what the big incident was inside Iran, only thing anyone can agree on is it sounds like it didn't go well for the Americans.

Calvinism was a mistake
Wow the actual answer is worse than the headlines. He refuses to rule out joining the war, goes back to calling the OG actions offensive and continues to insist Canada had no idea, then says weβll stand with our allies. Rat behaviour.

Good news is Kurd leadership doesn't seem to be in favour of this. Also now ground clashes in Iraq with Iraq military, after last night Iran reported they were aware of a small buildup of forces on Iraq border? Not going to be easy to get even a toehold.
Everyone saying America doesn't have a plan. Yes. Hegseth et al are running on nostalgia for war on terror. Obama wanted to do Bush's wars but smart. Hegseth wants to do Bush's wars but for guys who think the stuff Seth Harp reports is cool, actually, but also to a stronger opponent.
Only way any of this deescalates is if Iran makes Trump call it off. Sink a carrier, trigger an oil crisis, and make the gulf countries realize none of this is in their interest.
Think it's going to be boots on the ground. Small incursions at first, short term goal being FOBs and long term to make it a playground for Seal Team 6 psychos. The very minimum for that is you need to turn every city into Gaza, and even then you can't stop drone launches. Very very bad.
Depends on how many they're hiring. I can see this being like McDonalds/Walmart workers, where they hire a bunch of people but keep them at part time to keep costs down
How long before all that Gulf money starts lobbying America to knock it off?

one thing that's fun about being a monitoring the situation guy who's smart enough to realize there's a lot i don't know is suddenly seeing all the seismic reports and just immediately thinking oh yeah that's either a nuke or just another day in a seismically active region, no way for me to know
