Putin doesn't even have to scheme to get his way. Krasnow has all the ideas for him that he himself hasn't even thought of!

Allies fear Iran war will leave them without US weapons they bought European and Asian countries worry the Pentagon is burning through munitions so fast that it won’t have enough to send the weapons they have purchased.

Ha! This is the latest scam from the crime boss from NY:

So, now it's total destruction. As the Iranian people failed to overthrow the regime, it's fire free on them as well.
So, maybe the American people, too, should all be punished for failing to overthrow their regime?

It's called strategic thinking, of which Trump has neither the first nor the second.

Now, if you are Putin:
You don't help Iran to win, but just enough to keep the Strait of Hormus impassable and to exhaust global anti-missile defenses. Then make boatloads of money from oil and gas to China to keep bombing Ukraine with inadequate missile defense, all the while belly-brushing Trump.

...with no taxes on credit though.

Conservativism is a mental illness.

Now it is "if prices rise, they rise". Need more money? Lower taxes.
Now that the Con has hooked EU on US LNG, I expect full-on blackmail for EU to fund Iran war (and Russia's war in Ukraine) with higher gas prices. And the stupid German conservative gov fucks wants to expand use of gas again!

Thinking is for pussies!

That's a serious problem...

This is what a terminally degenerate state looks like.

His cabinet will consist of concubines. None over 30.

The Ides of March have it in them this time.

He is groomed to subjugate the world, not to serve anyone. Folks will scurry around him with little notebooks and pens.

He is destined to rule the world, not to get dirty in the trenches.

It's the improvised Mar-a-Lago bomb shelter.

They'll control the country soon like the Pakistan army.
And you guys still think you get out of this peacefully by voting! 🤣

Not that I have any sympathies for the religious lunatic government of Iran, but the US criminal syndicate posing as government deserves a bloody nose just as well. There are no good guys here.

The US says "jump", the Brits ask "how high?"
That's the "special" relationship of getting a little bit of superpower crumbs from the table.

Gee, what kind of countless tragedies are happening out there?

Little fires everywhere lets elections not be there.

The more important it is to rebel against budding dictatorship BY ALL MEANS when you still can when you live in a nuclear weapons state. There'll be no way back anymore as in previous times of history, no matter how degenerate your state becomes.

It teaches rogue regimes that they must have nuclear weapons. I have always believed that the greatest threat from nuclear weapons isn't mankind's demise, but the unimpeachability of murderous regimes in conjunction with perfect surveillance. These are the black holes mankind will fall into.

One criminal syndicate postering as "government" going after another; there are no good guys here, as there are no good outcomes.

That's what cancers do. They eat the body.

Always good to quit smoking 😉

Unhappy to not be in that pile.

Hell hath no fury like a lover scorned.

Ex UK ambassador Mandelson has been arrested by police.
This gets really embarrassing for the US justice system.
